Ryokan i Miyajima

Stephane Brasilien

This place is a must stay if you are spending the night in the magical Miyajima Island. It's a traditional japanese inn with everything you need and more, it's a short walk from the ferry station and far from the crowds, but the hotel also provides a shuttle bus for guests that is super covenient. The room was spacious and comfortable, with a very peaceful view of the sea and the cute deers, and with futon beds that were really comfortable. The food was really good, both dinner and breakfast. I highly recommend to get these meals, not only for the whole experience but also for the convenience since the places in the city closes very early. The hotel also have an onsen, for women and men, ping pong table, hammock and a souvenir shop. Also I cannot forget to mention about the amazing and kind staff, from the reception to the drivers that took us to the city thank you so much for everything. We wished we have stayed one more day to enjoy more this place.

Great location - 2 minutes walk from the ferry terminal. Traditional Japanese feel. The owner is very kind.

Everything was simply excellent and absolutely perfect. We felt luxuriously pampered in this beautiful ryokan. Its position is great, just minutes from the Itsukushima shrine and the great torii. It is perched on a hill, so rooms have the most perfect view on the torii and the sea. However, this is not an issue with luggage as there is an on-call free shuttle service from/to the port, that even picks you up on arrival, or delivers your luggage when leaving. Kaiseki dinner and japanese-style breakfast were highlights of our stay and absolutely fairly priced considering the half-board rate of the room. We also enjoyed the private onsen for a thirty minute slot that we could choose at check-in. Our room was very spacious - we guessed it could host 3 more people, with beautiful tatami and complete with yukatas to wear and a nice welcome tea served to us upon arrival. Amazing and unforgettable stay!

Every aspect has been carefully considered: -The rooms are beautiful, with a stunning view of the floating gate and pagoda -The welcome tea service was lovely and thoughtful -Dinner and breakfast were some of the best meals we had in Japan, with exceptional service -The onsen is stunning. Multiple large baths, including an outdoor bath with a slight cool breeze and view / sound of the river beside it. -The tatami mats set up and cleaned up in the evening / morning -The shuttle was available at our disposal.

Shinko san’s hospitality was exceptional. From the moment we entered Shinko warmly welcomed us and quickly settled us into our rooms. We were amazed by the sumptuous meal that catered to all diets. A tip for future travellers- do not snack before your dinner. The servings and variety were incredibly generous and delicious. The rooms were extremely comfortable and the views across the water were beautiful. Miyajima is beautiful to visit and staying overnight was extra special. Definitely our favourite experience in Japan.

As I was by myself in a 10 tatami room it was absolutely amazing. The nicely separated private toilet and wash basin is also very beneficial. The bath, although shared within the ryokan, can be requested for time to yourself, which again for one person is absolutely massive. I had requested for dinner late on the check in day, and was accomondated for very helpingly. The food is a fantastic ~7 course Japanese feast for dinner, and 5-8 dishes for breakfast (depending on who you ask for what one dish is). The staff are extremely helpful with good English, and was more than accomondating with mw trying out my garbage Japanese skills. solid 10/10 would stay again next time I'm here.

The public bath was refreshing and the staff was very helpful. At check-in they gave us tickets for a sample momijimanju, a sort of waffle-like sweet with various fillings.

I liked the quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The staff could not do enough to help.

Great place to stay! They serve a traditional Japanese breakfast. They also do dinner but advance reservation is required. I don’t recall seeing that as an option when booking so I assume you call ahead if you are wanting dinner. Dining options are limited in the evening on the island.
