Fukuyama New Castle Hotel

“Old-style hotel in convenient location”

Stayed 4 nights in semi-double room. Room is located a couple minutes outside the train and bus station but we had a little trouble finding it since part of the facade was covered for renovation work. It is a grand, old-fashioned hotel but it is well-maintained and nice that the "old" touches are... lisää

Stayed 4 nights in semi-double room. Room is located a couple minutes outside the train and bus station but we had a little trouble finding it since part of the facade was covered for renovation work. It is a grand, old-fashioned hotel but it is well-maintained and nice that the "old" touches are still there (telephone in the bathroom, coasters for drink glasses). Positives: room was large and functional. I believe all the rooms that face the castle are even larger. There was plenty of space for our luggage and it was great to have a decent table as well as a desk space to work from. Wired internet and wifi worked well. We tried both the Japanese and the breakfast buffet - both delicious. As other reviews have noted, the French toast is especially scrumptious! Also nice that the breakfast lasts a little longer than in most hotels. Negatives: old-fashioned but most of Fukuyama seems from the same era. Housekeeping was generally excellent but on one day, our room hadn't been made up and it was already 3:30 pm. Overall, a great place to stay in Fukuyama.

“Late review for my Aug 2018 stay.”

I like the caring little things offered inside the room. A whole set of plugs for various types of smart phones and other gadgets. Various types of tea and nice coffee offered. Nice washing towel to clean the body after a day of activities. My room is a bit small for 3 persons, while my friend wh... lisää

I like the caring little things offered inside the room. A whole set of plugs for various types of smart phones and other gadgets. Various types of tea and nice coffee offered. Nice washing towel to clean the body after a day of activities. My room is a bit small for 3 persons, while my friend who booked for one person was arranged a larger room... Their rooms on the side facing the Fukuyama Castle are larger than those facing the city side. So you may request for that. Japanese newspaper was inserted into the room for the first day, but only once. I saw newspaper inserted in nearby rooms in other days but I don’t know why it stopped for our room.

“Hotel next to fukuyama JR train station ”

We book this hotel for its location. Fukuyama is a small city and most hotels are within walking distance fr the JR station. We didnt see many tourist in this hotel. Most of them are local business travellers. Most people would choose to be based in hiroshima or okayama and make day trips to onom... lisää

We book this hotel for its location. Fukuyama is a small city and most hotels are within walking distance fr the JR station. We didnt see many tourist in this hotel. Most of them are local business travellers. Most people would choose to be based in hiroshima or okayama and make day trips to onomichi. We choose to stay here to experience different cities of Japan. We also stayed in okayama and hiroshima and it maybe better to stay there as its most bustling all the shops close by 8pm or earlier. Fukuyama New Castle Hotel service and rooms were great for us. We stayed in the 3 person room and room size is consider big for japan standard

As I came by Fukuyama for a business trip, and the hotel is located very convenient it was our choice. It is very close, walking distance, to the station. Also from the outside the hotel itself does not look very welcoming, staff was friendly and welcoming. Room was clean and spacious, but the bathroom as rather small and had a low ceiling. 4 out of 5 also do to the fact that the room has carpet and having a dust allergy, this does influence me quite much. We decided for the Japanese breakfast that was for sure more than enough!
