fav ISE

Searching for a place for our family of four, we came across this gem. The hotel is modern, simple, and incredibly practical. Our room was equipped with dishes and cooking tools like knives and scissors, which was a huge plus. The separate bath and toilet were great, and the deep bathtub was perfect for a nice, long soak to recover from our travels. This hotel would be ideal for a longer stay. While the on-site vending machines didn't have much variety, a nearby convenience store made up for it, so we never felt inconvenienced. On the ground floor, a cafe sits next to the reception, serving up delicious coffee and hot sandwiches. We enjoyed breakfast there, and it doubles as a bar at night. Our room offered a beautiful view of the lush trees of Ise Jingu's Geku Shrine, giving us a peek into the everyday life of the neighborhood. The hotel itself is next to a quaint shrine with a beautiful row of red torii gates that we also took the time to visit. We were completely satisfied and would highly recommend this hotel. Knowing there are other locations across Japan, we're already hoping to book another stay in a different city soon. Thank you!

The accommodation was great for a family of four. Quiet location. Good local food options and a temple next door. Reasonable distance to sites. Check in is via tablet. The person on site was not approachable.

Spacious place with a separate bath and toilet. It comes with a sink with cooking utensils, an electric stove, a microwave, and a small fridge with a separate freezer. Nice collection of amenity is available at the front desk. Easy check in and out. Not many parking spaces, so we had to park at a local parking lot but only 800 yen for 24 hours. 10-15 minute walking to the Ise station and the shopping area. Very new and clean. Great spot to stay for a few days and with kids.

Staff was friendly and quick to provide answers. The bunk bed room was great. There are very limited parking slots so do book yours early, otherwise you will need to park about 5 minutes walk away. All are paid parking slots. There are only 2 washer-dryer machines so be prepared to stay up until late if many guests are doing their laundry. It's a pity that housekeeping is only provided on the third day, though towels can be changed every morning. Trash is also not cleared daily so prepare some plastic bags of your own to keep the room clean.
