Hotels near Shimaneken Bussan Kankokan, Matsue

We stayed at the New Urban Hotel for 2 weeks in October while my husband was in Matsue for business. It is a lovely hotel in an excellent location in the city. I can’t say enough positive comments about the staff, and especially would like to mention Keiko Ueda. She goes above and beyond in making guests feel welcome and she is so helpful. Her English is very good and she repeatedly asked for feedback, did we need anything, was there anything in particular we wanted or wanted to do. All of the other staff are just as helpful, albeit many don’t speak English…however with the help of Google Translate, we had no difficulty. In staying there for 2 weeks, we were a familiar face and we’re always greeted warmly whenever we were in the lobby area. The location is excellent, about a 10 minute walk to Matsue Castle, about 15 minute walk to the Kyomise shopping district, and about 25 minute walk to the JR Matsue Transit Station, which has a wonderful Visitors Center with English speaking staff.. The hotel is directly across from Lake Shinji, and our room faced the lake providing lovely views. There is a walking path along the lake that is very nice and it is a short walk to Sunset Park to view the famous sunsets. Since my husband was working during the days, I was on my own to explore. I never felt uncomfortable or unsafe walking around this beautiful city. The city’s population is about 200K, and Matsue is known for still being “authentic Japan.” There is an on-site onsen at the hotel, which is very nice. There are separate baths for males and females and the hours are quite convenient. The lobby of the hotel has a section of travel amenities that are free to quests. Additionally, the hotel stocks a number of other items for borrowing that you might need, such as iron and ironing board. There is a laundry facility and a convenience store attached to the hotel. My only negative comment would be that the on-site buffet at the restaurant is the same for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But there are many wonderful restaurants in Matsue if you need more variety. If your travels find you going to Matsue, consider staying at the New Urban Hotel, you won’t be disappointed with the everything the hotel offers as well as the location.

It's a very Japanese-style hot spring hotel. You can take a bath and it's very clean. The only thing I'm not used to is asking for slippers when entering the door. The room is not too big, but very Japanese. After soaking in the soup, there is free ramen to eat in the evening and ice cream at the door.

One of the best decisions we made during our recent trip to Japan was staying at the Ohashikan. We stayed in a standard room overlooking the Ohashi River. The room was large and quiet. The futon beds were placed on top of foam mattresses and were very comfortable. The wifi was very good. The staff, especially James, were friendly and very helpful. Ohashikan has an excellent location. It is a ten minute or so walk to the Matsue Castle and the Castle area which includes Lafcadio Hearn’s Residence and Museum, and a longer walk in the other direction to the center of town and the railroad station. On the first night we dined at the hotel’s restaurant. The Japanese food was wonderful. Even if you don’t stay at the hotel go to the restaurant and enjoy the food at Shosuitei. We opted for the western breakfast which was also excellent, The hotel recently started a bar and grill, The Willows, on the 2nd floor with a long bar overlooking the river with James as the bartender/host. He offers specialty cocktails and superb Japanese whiskies. Its hours were Tuesday to Saturday from 5:30 to 10 pm when we stayed at the hotel. In addition to the local sites, if you have time, take a day trip by train to the Adachi Museum of Art in Yasugi with its garden. When you exit the Yasugi train station there is a free shuttle bus that takes you to the museum. If you travel to Matsue a stay at the Ohashikan is highly recommended. It will help make you visit a very special experience.

Free parking! I can't. It is located in a long-established bar in Matsue City. I only recognized that the existing hotel has changed to the route-in group ～. I tried using it for the first time. It was a route-in firmly! , It has been properly renewed and is new and comfortable. There are breakfast and local menus, and I think that the number of items is abundant and fulfilling among the route-in groups! , Above all, free parking. I will follow this ... Most of the suburbs of Matsue Station are charged. Thank you! For dinner, please use nearby restaurants to support Matsue's food and beverage industry. Free transfer to Matsue station is also available, so it is also recommended for business use.

The hotel is very new, we stayed in the lake view and bungalow (two beds + tatami), the four people were slightly crowded, but the floor-to-ceiling windows matched the scenery of the ramp lake, worth the full score! The lobby on the first floor of the hotel is very large, very new, full of sunshine, but not often encounter service staff, luggage needs to take the cart and return to the fixed point on the first floor. The architectural design is a bit strange that there is no door, there is a small door entrance, And two side doors. At first, I couldn't find the entrance. It was strange that guests needed to pay for parking (500 yen a day, the ticket card must be used for the counter to magnetic) The public bath on the top floor is good, the facilities are very new, the space is large, the view is good, the temperature is moderate. We like the casual clothes attached to the room (non-yukata, black top + pants), you can wear to the soup, you can also wear to sleep very comfortable, but you can not wear to the public area on the first floor and the restaurant on the second floor. We stayed during Christmas, only buffet restaurant to choose from, breakfast is good, dishes options are not very large but very delicate and delicious. Note that there are few restaurants around the hotel, if you stay here, if you don't want to eat expensive buffet restaurant on the second floor, It is best to finish your meal on the way back to the hotel.

I stayed at this Dormy hotel in April 2019, and chose it again for a two-night stay because it'd worked out well, and again, I wasn't disappointed. I think I may have even been in the same room! The quarters were plain and compact, and with no view to speak of, but well-designed and equipped, especially for working on the laptop - great desk space, easily accessible power sockets and good wi-fi. I loved having the amplifier, something most hotels don't include. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom had a mini tv (and welcoming duck), with a larger one in the bedroom. The complimentary inclusions were appreciated - for example, ramen in the evenings, bath salts (bonus), and peach jelly in the fridge. The reasonably-priced breakfast was good, and featured perfect tempura! The hotel is near the JR station and a 10 minute walk to Lake Shinji, 15-20 to the castle. Staff were efficient with tasks such as forwarding luggage. Overall, excellent value!

Good location for who need to be close the Matsue station and also easily to go in the Matsue castle.

We loved this hotel. Room size is above average for Japan and it is clean and modern with nice bathroom. Unlike other Japanese business hotels, the bathroom here had a separate shower/bath room from the sink and toilet so it was spacious. The breakfast buffet was really great with ample choices of western and Japanese foods. Location is nearby train station (and many other hotels). The only downside was that the hotel had switched to winter heating system so the only way to cool the room was to open the window. Definitely would stay there again if in Matsue.

The hotel is 5 minutes away from Songjiang Station, close to the supermarket AEON, the hotel facilities and rooms are very old, the room is filled with a subtle smell, the sound insulation is also very poor, the bathroom is super small in the bathtub, it is difficult to take a bath and turn around, it is not recommended to live long, the service staff is very kind, the foreign language is also generally accessible.

Whether the GoTo campaign of the corona pass was successful or for the convenient location of Matsue station, ９ month ４ during the consecutive holiday, it was almost full. Arrived around ６ p.m., but first of all, the hotel parking lot was full and I was surprised to find a nearby private parking lot. Although the parking lot was found a few minutes walk away, I was lightly surprised by the row of check-in afterwards. ３０ more than a person made a row and the corresponding staff was ２ names. In addition to the usual check-in business, it took time to check the temperature (the staff was polite). Some of them are just getting the keys from the outing, but they are patiently lined up in the row of check-in 々, and it is clear that the response to such customers is not able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to be able to There is a shortage of staff at Kuji. It is a problem of manpower management. In my case, it took about ３０ minutes to complete the check-in procedure. Looking back, it seems that the row is further extended. However, it will be repeated, but the front desk staff was polite and friendly. Even if you wait for ２ meals, the price is quite good for ６ 1000 yen or less. Dinner is only set menu (or curry) for corona countermeasures. There are many small bowls, but no quality luxury is required. Drinks are self-style and only soft drinks. If you want alcohol, you can only buy it on a vending machine or eat it outside. Breakfast is half self. It was a form to take Japanese style food on the tray in advance.
