Miyajima Grand Hotel Arimoto

可能是離嚴島神社最近的酒店，房間很大，加上榻榻米感覺可以住4個人，適合一家子，入住和就餐都有説中文的服務員，這一點體驗很好，餐食水平不遜於前幾日住的某知名連鎖温泉酒店，幸運地安排到能看到大鳥居的帶露台和搖椅的房間，島上住一晚很值得，晚上去看鳥居夜景，早上爬山還能聽到呦呦鹿鳴

Decided to stay at this hotel because of its close proximity to Itsukushima Shrine and the Torii Gate. Wanted somewhere that I can quickly go to take sunset shots and quickly head back to the hotel, given the low temperature during evening. It was within ＜5 min walk. A ********* lady staff managed my check-in and introduced me to my room. She also served my delicious dishes during dinner and I was relieved as I need not worry about using Japanese to communicate. Night falls and I was unfortunately down with a bad stomach flu with constant vomitting. Needed urgent assistance but had to wait till 7am before there is English/Chinese speaking staff to manage my concerns. Thankfully there was a clinic open from 9am-12pm, given that it was a Saturday. The hotel helped me to book a taxi there as I wqs too weak to walk. Before that, a male Japanese hotel staff gave me some medicine to curb my vomiting. I really appreciated these help rendered by the various hotel staff, especially when I was travelling alone. Thank you and I hope to visit again.

Perfect location 3min from the large tori. Very large rooms. Western style: very comfy beds. The Japanese style rooms are even larger. Futons ok but quite hard (we did put an extra futon under ours. Bathroom is somewhat outdated but functional. Breakfast is very good and plentiful. Diner with a multi course menu is excellent. Staff is super friendly and helpful but has very basic knowledge of English.

We decided to stay the night in Miyajima to avoid the crowds of daytrippers to the island and so glad we stayed here. The staff were so friendly. A special thank you to Takashi Yoshimuta. The room was Western with a very spacious with a Japanese area next to it. Beds were comfy and sheets were good.

I first visited Miyijima in 2011, as a day trip from Hiroshima (like most people). This time I knew I wanted to stay for a couple of nights on the island - which proved to be a great decision as the island is so enchanting in the evening once most of the tourists have gone back to the mainland. Most of the accommodations on the island are Japanese in style, and so it’s an obvious place to get the full Japanese experience. Unfortunately I struggled a bit to find somewhere to book, as many traditional-style places don’t accept solo travellers, however the Miyajima Grand Hotel Arimoto did and so I booked it. I booked a Japanese/western style room, which had twin beds plus a large tatami mat area where additional guests could sleep on futons. The room was large, although the bathroom was very small. My room came with a large outside balcony area (by the looks of it only a couple of rooms get this - it’s not the norm) with a swing seat overlooking a side view to the Tori gate. This was a really lovely place to sit in the evenings. The staff were very helpful, and I had a lovely personal and detailed introduction to the room, which can’t have been easy for them to do in English! One of the main features of a ryokan-style stay is the food, which is plentiful, extravagant, intricate and (to us westerners) very unusual. They accommodated my request for no shellfish with no issues. You have to be a bit of an adventurous eater (by western standards) as many of the flavours and textures are very unusual. Not all were to my taste, which is to be expected, but regardless the meal was a fantastic experience that I will never forget. The second night was a completely different menu, which they tailored to my request to include more meat (the Hiroshima beef was delicious). I was served by some lovely ladies who explained each of the 12 courses to me. The Japanese breakfast is similarly extravagant, although I did opt for the western breakfast on my second day which was lovely. All in all I would highly recommend this hotel if you want a traditional ryokan-style experience on the island. I would certainly return to it.

第一に、事前に予約していたのはツイン和洋室47平米だったのですが、案内を頂いたのは普通の和室でした。予約とは違うと申し出るとツインの部屋に変更はして頂いたのですが、ツインではあったものの遥か狭いお部屋だと感じました。第二に、入室してお部屋の温度が低いので暖房依頼をしたのですが暖房は入っているとの事でした。。変だと思いつつも寒いので部屋着に重ね着をして寒さを凌ぎました。夜中には寒くて大浴場は時間外ですので自室の浴槽にお湯を溜めて身体を温めました。朝方には余りの寒さに震えるので直接フロントに出向いて、暖房を入れて頂くようお願いに出向いて暖房を入れて頂けたのは朝7時30分でした。お料理も素晴らしく、心のこもる接客も嬉しく思いました。 それだけに、２つの残念さえ無ければと感じた次第です。

Gran hotel, excelente ubicación y atención, el personal muy amable, la habitación muy amplia y comfortable, tiene servicio de traslado de la estación hacia el hotel y de regreso igual, las instalaciones modernas y típicas con unos jardines preciosos. Muy recomendado!!

ホテル自体は良いが、古いせいかところどころ汚れがある。和洋室に泊まりましたが畳に染みがありました。海側が改装中でしたので山側の部屋でしたが、それほど絶景ではないです。 食事は十分ですが生カキはありません。オススメ料理を早く食べろと勧めてくるおばさんの圧がある。 このホテル特有の神社のナイトツアーは神社に入るわけではなく、神社を見ながら歴史を説明してくれます。声が大きいので関係ない人も聞けます。有もとに宿泊しなくても参加できちゃう。 お風呂は温泉ではないので特にこれといってコメントなし。

旅行会社経由で申し込んだ宿なので、正直期待していなかったが大満足でした。 フロントの対応もとてもわかりやすく親切。部屋は和洋室でベッド。 宮島観光スポットまで近いし、何と言っても夜と朝のガイドツアーが素晴らしい。夜は浪曲師のような喋りのおばあさん。朝は役所の職員のようなお兄さん。この２人の案内サイコーでした。 食事も夜朝美味しく、サーブしてくれた年配の中居さんの広島弁もステキでした。 申し分ない寄でしたが、お風呂の記憶がまるで残っていなくて、普通すぎたのか？ いづれにしても、リピートしたい宿でした。
