NAGI Kurashiki Hotel & Lounge

10/10 Excellent
"Solo traveler, hotel is well situated to Kurashiki Station, & tucked in a small quiet side street. The staff was warm & welcoming, & helped me forward my luggage on my last day. I stayed in a large, beautifully kept Japanese-style room, & amenities were plentiful. It was quiet & very comfortable, & I would definitely book again when back to visit the area!"
