3-Star Hotels in Miyazaki Prefecture, Japan

Booked their specialty room, comes with a traditional Japanese bath tub in the room, and room is spacious. Hospitality was great. We went for the show at night at a temple, the ryokan staff offer to provide us portable chairs as we have senior with walking stick and pregnant woman in the group, to bring to the show instead of sitting on the tatami floor. I love the foods provided as well. Overall, pleasant experience.

From the bottom of my heart, I’d like to thank all staff of the hotel. My 11-old son and I stayed there for just one night, because we were on our way to visit gorgeous Toungenkyu hydrangeas park in the other town, so we chose to stay in Hyugashi, and that was definitely the right decision! I didn’t know that there was no public transportation assess to the park, because it’s located far upon to the mountains. But I never give up  So, I decided to get to the park by hitchhiking! And one of kind managers of the hotel wrote the name of the park in Japanese characters on a big sheet of paper to be seen from far apart for drivers. Besides, he told us where it could be possible to stop a car. So we did it! First, we went to the nearest town by train, and tried the hitching there. There was a nice lady who took us to the park and back to Hyugashi, we were so grateful to her!!! The local people were kind to us everywhere whenever it was a restaurant or a station. We will never forget the kindness of the local people!!! We liked that izakaya on the first floor in the building. Moreover, we liked that nice quiet town Hyugashi because of its people! We wish you all the best!!!

Strategy location,train and bus station just downstairs the hotel and hotel lobby located at floor 8. Just opposite AMU shopping mall, easy to find food. Hotel itself very clean and new, big room feel comfortable.

Miyazaki Kanko Hotel stands along Tachibana Koen-dori Street (1-1-1 Matsuyama, Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture, 880-8512) overlooking the Oyodo River. It is a large, well-established hotel. There is a large hot spring bath on the first floor of the West Wing, and on the second floor is Shokusai Kenbi Ichiboku Ichiso, where the breakfast buffet is located. A dinner buffet is also available. The hotel is old, so there is nothing new about it, but the rooms are spacious, the utility room is spacious, and the bathtub is also large. There is only an AC outlet for power, no USB, and the AC at the desk has to be plugged in through a wall socket at the foot of the desk, which gives it a sense of history, but this is not a problem.

Hotel is centrally location, a few stop is bus stop to airport and vice versa, walkable distance to Miyazaki Station and Minami Miyazaki Station, if don’t wanna to walk, there is option to take bus to both stations. Tachibana shopping street and its neighborhood is nearby. Room design is cute and lovely, breakfast is available until 11.00 for dine in and take out.

This is the best decision I’ve made during my trip in Miyazaki. I should have stayed longer here than I did in the previous booking. Almost everything is almost perfect, from the artificial hot spring to the traditional Japanese bedrooms, which are great additions to the Japanese experience. I believe it is one of the most affordable hotels in the area. The breakfast is a buffet that is included in my stay, and I had to add the Dinner buffet, which is very worth the price since the place doesn't have many restaurants nearby. The hotel is also within a 5-10 minute walk from the JR train station. The staff are also friendly. I definitely will be back here when I revisit Miyazaki soon. The day I visited was rainy, so I was unable to visit many places.

Good location, walking distance to JR station and Amu Plaza, where many shopping and dining options available. On site car park limited lots in B1/B2, especially when they have functions in hotel in the evening. So need to park at nearby carparks, suggested open air car park was 100m away. Hotel parking charges 1000¥ per overnight. Public parking is 500$¥ from 6pm to 8am, after that is by hourly charge.

The whole house is huge, and it can actually accommodate four people. Two rooms have tatami mats. If two people live, the next room will be a tatami living room. There is a kitchen where you can cook your own food, there is a large supermarket nearby, and the washing machine has a drying function, but it takes three hours to wash it at a time. Because the house is too big, and then I was scared by the old man and said that you dare to live in the old house. Suddenly I became scared, and I couldn't sleep peacefully all night. It is better to remove the scary painting in the bedroom. After all, behind is the ancient city of Tifei, and there are still many celebrities living in the old residences, which is still a bit scary to think about. But apart from these, the house is still very good. The kitchen and living room are too life-like. There are a lot of personal items such as stereos and so on. It feels like sharing with the owner. Personal opinions, please forgive me if I don’t say anything wrong.

The affiliated parking fee was 1,000 yen per night, and you could enter and exit freely, but you had to take your parking ticket to the front desk each time you entered and exited. The location is very good, so I think 1,000 yen per night is cheap. The free drink bar has a wide selection of shochu, fruit liqueurs, charcoal water, and ice, so you can make a variety of chuhai and cocktails by combining them. The natural hot spring is not large (it can fit 5 or 6 people), but it is clean and the quality of the spring is good. The free breakfast buffet has a decent variety of side dishes and freshly baked bread, all of which are delicious, and the coffee is also delicious. Overall, it feels like a business hotel with a lot of service. It was clean, the front desk was kind and polite, and it was a comfortable stay. However, there is only one elevator that can accommodate about 10 people, and the emergency stairs are not open, so it gets crowded around 8:30 in the morning. Someone I met at the hotel said that if there are many group guests staying, you may have to wait for the elevator for more than 10 minutes.

The hotel offers free parking, which is very convenient if you're driving. The room was clean, and the bed and pillows were very comfortable. The air conditioning allowed for independent adjustment of temperature, fan speed, and airflow direction. However, the curtains didn't block out enough light, so I woke up quite early. The breakfast was good too, and since it's hard to find restaurants nearby, I recommend adding breakfast to your booking.
