Seika Holidays from NZ$1,567

Friendly, international staff, comfortable, clean room; a good hotel all around.

This hotel is fantastic! The rooms are spacious with a zen Japanese design. The staff are very friendly and extremely helpful. There’s free coffee, cappuccino, beer and wine in the lobby 24x7. We really enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend it!

Our room was beautiful. It was quiet and had blackout draperies, the beds were comfortable. The garden room was gorgeous, the view from the bathtub was just great. The breakfast had a wide variety of choices. The location was close to transportation and a short walk to Pontocho. We enjoyed our stay. We arrived early and asked if one room was available. It was and it was great to check it early and quickly shower after a long day of traveling. They prorated the daily cost, so $100 for 4 hours. While fair, we were staying for 4 nights with 2 rooms, so it seemed a bit penny pinching-and it took over 30 minutes for the front desk to calculate the fee.

Excellent for a theme-park hotel and perfectly designed for families. Clean and spacious rooms with lovely views. Rooms, facilities and staff were all excellent. Downside: Stick to the standard buffet breakfast downstairs, as the "premium" buffet was really not worth it, in terms of variety and quality. We did not try the buffet dinner because of this impression from breakfast.

Great hotel. Large rooms that are very clean. Very good staff. Would recommend for families with children. One improvement - TV has no channels in English. They need to add a few.
