Excellent and affordable hotel to stay after cycling from Onomichi to Imabari. There is an onsen, breakfast included, massage chair for free and drinks from 15:00 to 21:00 . Highly recommend although the room are simple . Location is excellent, just across from the Imabari train station.
It is my second time there .
The nearby hotels were set at three times the usual rate during Golden Week, but this was a normal rate even during busy seasons. There was also a large communal bath and a sauna so I could relax. After the bath, there was a free service of drinks, sweets and ice cream on the 1 floor. Next to the counter was a service of citrus fruits such as decopon and water PET bottles. It is a hotel that I want to stay next time.
There was also an all-you-can-drink service of local sake 4 〜 5 types on the 1st floor for 2 hours at 19:00 〜 21:00. For those who can't drink alcohol, there was also a free coffee and tea service.
We really enjoyed the full Japanese Inn experience at Ebisuya Ryokan. This means you have a private room for sleeping but shared facilities for toilet and bathing. There are also very comfortable, relaxed shared lounge and reading areas. The whole Ryokan was beautifully appointed with traditional Japanese furniture. The hosts were very friendly and helpful, and despite our limited Japanese we managed to communicate effectively. The room was large and beautifully appointed. The traditional bedding was laid out for us during dinner, which was served downstairs in the restaurant/dining area. The dinner was filling and delicious with an emphasis on seafood. The onsite onsens were glorious after a day travelling and they are not segregated by sex and can be locked so you can have a private onsen with your partner or family. Breakfast was also sumptuous and very traditional Japanese. If you would like to visit a less travelled part of Japan I would recommend this ryokan. Great access to the beautiful Sadamisaki Peninsula. The local town also has some great cafes!
The place is really accessible to Dogo Onsen. It is clean & the front desk staff is kind & welcoming. She also tried her best to talk to me in English. My only problem is that since the divider is so thin that I could hear the loud snore of the person in the room & the sounds in the next room. Hoping they would provide earbuds to their guests or bring your own.
Toilets are only two on the 2nd floor, one of them is for both gender which will be troublesome if everyone leaves at the same time.
But generally it is a good place to stay.
Use when traveling on the shimamami Kaido road.
The parking lot is free and large, so it's okay to be late 🅿️ There is Yoshinoya next door, and there is Kura sushi opposite, so it doesn't seem to be troublesome for food! If you drive a little, there are supermarkets and convenience stores 🏪
The room is spacious and comfortable 々. The large communal bath was very large and beautiful, probably because it was renewed. There were no amenities, so bring lotion, emulsion, and toothbrush.
The lounge offers alcohol and snacks at night and breakfast in the morning.
Breakfast is also very delicious and satisfying.
I was there at Jan 2024, and only stayed there for 2 days.
The staff there can speak English, and were nice. The second day I stayed there, the staff offered me to have hotpot with all the other people living in Fujiya, an unforgettable experience I treasured and will forever remembered. Even though it is a proxy of a Japanese family, it did feel like I have experienced the Japanese hospitality and friendliness. There were some interesting characters, who may or may not frequented Fujiya, whom I had the pleasure to have this hotpot together.
The facilities are not the best, but the basics necessities were there and no complaining from me, they have an AC there, comfortable enough for me.
The staff did explain that there is only one shower, so we might have to wait for the person to finish. However, since the location is so close to Dogo Onsen, they did recommend to go there instead, and after all, it was why i chose this location in the first place. Location is really close to the Dogo Onsen and the Yuzuki-Castle ruin, which was a lifesaver for me
I would say that all other sight-seeing locations are within walking distance as well since I did walk to all those interesting places. However, I do realize not all people like to walk like I do. To counter that, Fujiya is practically next to the tram station, which you can use it to go to many places in the city.
tldr, would recommend
The view of the Kuroshima Kaikyo Bridge is good
Please ask for a view of the bridge.
Breakfast is not overdone and small but clean.
Very Good

GGuest UserI wanted to write too much this night at my grandparents’ house, because I was too touched. The sincerity, enthusiasm and meticulousness of my grandparents deeply moved us. I was already in my 80s and I was still doing everything seriously. The spirit of everything infected us. The breakfast prepared for us the next morning was very rich and very good. Local features, although the language is not available, but we talked a lot. It’s really beautiful. Let’s talk about the beautiful small city of Yiyu Changbin. The Changbin Bridge is at the door of Grandma’s house. I admired this beautiful and quiet place at 6 o’clock in the morning. There is a monastery nearby. It’s like a paradise, away from the world. Enjoyed this beach when I left. I have just left and I have begun to miss it. I hope my grandparents are healthy.

GGuest UserThis graceful ryokan has been running a business for 150 years located in a sedated little town. Maybe it’s off season. I felt I was in the middle of nowhere worrying what to do with my time there. However Izumi San the host has been helping me above and beyond trying to make me feel welcome. She escorted me to and from the onsen each night punctually. She got all the information for me to rent a bicycle and get me the bus time table ready for me to travel to Hiroshima. Btw the bike ride was amazing and is a must do for islands hopping. Although we communicated mostly through Google translate and some of my broken Japanese. We have had some good laugh. Chaume did offer me couple of restful nights. To Izumi San, arigato gozaimasu. 💝
GGuest UserClean and relaxing. Was tempted to stay another night. Slightly confused on the etiquette of things (and others that were staying there were as well), but still a wonderful experience.
GGuest UserThe ryokan is located very near the Vine bridge but is quite old looking.
The dinner and breakfast are super delicious and is the Japanese style with many small dishes.
It was the accommodation with the best dining options throughout my 19 days travel in japan.
There is a bathhouse in the ryokan which guests can use.
The rooms are all located on the 2nd or 3rd floor, together with the toilet and shower.
Room was huge with tatami and can fit in at least 4 person.
We were allowed to bring our bikes into the room but we laid them on some cloth to prevent the dirtying of the flooring.
Good value for money

GGuest UserAwesome hotel. Cheap and comfortable. There are also public hot springs to soak.
The single room is very large, it is the most comfortable one I have lived in recently, about a minute walk from the station.
