Recent Reviews in Kanonji

Green Hill Hotel Onomichi

8/10 Good

"Great starting point for Shimanami Kaido. Only stayed one night. Property was clean with good amenities"

Tabist Kotohikisou

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel is a time capsule to Japan's economic miracle era during the 70s and 80s. Very classic and the staff were amazing. However, an electrical outlet in my room needs a proper plate on it. The wooden cover fell off. THEY LET ME PARK MY BICYCLE IN MY ROOM, which saves me about a half hour on arrival AND departure for the 1000 kilometer round-trip Shikoku Circuit Bicycle Route ride! I appreciate that!"

Fukuyama Oriental Hotel

8/10 Good

"A well-run business hotel with an onsite cafe where the breakfast is served. The single room was small, but I had a view of the castle in the distance. The breakfast was good. You can choose different types of pillows, and there is free coffee in the lobby. 3 minutes from the train station, plenty of restaurants nearby."
