Fukuyama Oriental Hotel

“Nice Hotel, well located near the Jr station.”

The hotel is located only 5 min. walk from the Jr Fukuyama station and the castle. I was able to check in at 13h30 instead of 15h (standard checking time in Japan) who was really appreciated.

The hotel is located only 5 min. walk from the Jr Fukuyama station and the castle. I was able to check in at 13h30 instead of 15h (standard checking time in Japan) who was really appreciated. The room was decent size (above average size for Japan), with all the usual amenities including a pants press. They also have three different public bath with health benefits open from 15h until 24h. One thing I really liked was the fact that plugs were around the bed so it was ideal to charge your phone or tablet while in bed compare to many other hotels where the plugs was located in the most unpractical spots. They also offer free tea, coffee and water on each floors. The staff was polite, some of them spoke English quite well, they offer different type of pillow that you can choose from and they also serve breakfast (but I don't have any so I can't comment on it). As a Jr rail pass holder I found this hotel well located to go to Hiroshima (only 20 min.) and with reasonable rates. Overall this hotel would be a good base to explore the area IF you're the holder of a Jr rail pass. I would stay again.

A convenient store(Family Mart) right in front of the hotel, which is a plus for me. 6. 3 mins walk from station, good for those who got late arrival.

“Good Location but Old Hotel”

The hotel is a bit old (I guess it was build in 1970s) and the room is not well maintained. There was no kettle in the room and I needed to go to the corridor for hot water. When I went to the hotel in the morning, the staff at the front desk promised to give me a room facing Fukuyama castle. How… lisää

The hotel is a bit old (I guess it was build in 1970s) and the room is not well maintained. There was no kettle in the room and I needed to go to the corridor for hot water. When I went to the hotel in the morning, the staff at the front desk promised to give me a room facing Fukuyama castle. However, when I returned in the afternoon to check in, I found that the view of the room was completely blocked by a very large column outside. There was no view at all. The male staff at the front desk in the afternoon could not speak any English at all. He even had difficulty in understanding English.
