The hotel offers perfect services, the staff is very nice and helpful, parking at the hotel is very convenient. The hotel has an excellent location with an amazing view of Dogo Onsen. It also has private elevator access to the main shopping district. The room was super clean and wonderfully designed. Everything was thought out to the last detail and had a very luxurious feel, from the balcony there is a great view of Dogo Onsen and all of Matsuyama with the castle and mountains in the distance. As part of the accommodation, you can visit the onsen on the top floor with an amazing view, or you can book a private onsen. We used this option and highly recommend it, everything was prepared, perfectly clean, an amazing experience. The rooms have a selection of home traditional clothing, including shoes, sorted by size. Live piano evenings in the hall are also a bonus. The stay at the hotel was perfect, both due to the professional approach of the staff and the great atmosphere. If you want to have a great experience during your stay in Matsuyama, definitely stay at this hotel.

The room was as advertised. The staff service was great. They explained how to use the amenities in the room when we arrived and gave us sweets/tea. There was a dining table with 2 doors, 1 at the entrance way and 1 at the living room so the staff doesn't need to pass through the living room to serve you food (for privacy reasons) which I thought was very well designed. We were able to select 3 yukatas for the 3 nights we stayed here. We didn't use the public onsen because we had a private one in the room so no comments on the onsen they have. The tatami room was huge and spacious. The bed was great. Aircon was easy to use. The private open air bath was well decorated with plants.

Next to the Dogo Onsen Main Building, it is about 5 mins walk from the Tram station. Onsen facilities were great and there were many activities at the Ryokan, wish there were more time for me to enjoy the onsen. Will definitely be back again.

I really liked the western/Japanese hybrid style room. Very comfortable and all the creature comforts of a Japanese hotel. Private cedar bath included, however the room faces the entrance/road so the ambience isn't the greatest. Overall I quite enjoyed my stay.

The staff was incredibly nice, very helpful in all kinds of way and took all the time necessary to help us. The room was very clean, the futons comfortable, the bathroom was a private onsen which was really nice!! The food is very nice, the dinner is simple to order with a menu in English and they are very kind to help; the food arrives quickly and is tasteful. The breakfast is very good (we had the Japanese style one), and is very complete. My girlfriend had fallen ill before we arrived, and seeing it didn't pass, we seeked tonsee a doctor. The staff took time to point us to a local clinic where the doctor spoke English, and we ended up with all the medicine we needed. Very grateful for them to have helped us so! We had no time to try the larger onsen of the hotel, but many people seemed to come to enjoy it without being guests of the hotel, which is a good sign! Thanks again for everything!

The hotspring facilities are all amazing. Especially, the private hotspring was quite comfortable and it was nice that they have several different options for it. Also, they have wide range of yukata which we can choose without paying any extra fee.

We really enjoyed our stay here. It was slightly challenging to find as there was no English written on the sign to turn from the main road or on the building sign (kanji only), but GPS worked to get close to the area. We were able to park near the building without additional fee. The onsen was small but nice. Although it was on the first floor, the building is on a hill, so you could still see out over part of the city. We were able to easily walk to Dogo Park and Isheti-ji (shrine) from the hotel. There is also a free shuttle bus service, but we did not use it. We took advantage of the karaoke rooms, which was fun (free from 0900 to 1900, then have to pay in the evenings). We also used the ping-pong tables. The breakfast and dinner were both tasty with many options.

    I loved our stay here!! The highlight of our Japan trip. The staff were all really friendly especially Taguchi san and the food was amazing! We were served a different menu for our second night, too. The private onsen bath overlooking dogo onsen was lovely. And the yukatas were cute!

    A fantastic ryokan right next to Dogo Onsen. One of the best breakfasts I've had in Japan (that's saying something), and a wonderful host in Hisa. 100% recommend staying here.

    A wonderfully authentic ryokan experience. Hisa is a great host and makes a delicious Japanese breakfast. The room was beautiful - paper walls and tatami, all in great condition. I slept fine on the futon. The shared bathroom was clean and pleasant and the onsen fun to use. Close to public onsens which you can walk to in the provided beautiful yukata.

    Shimizu was extremely hospitable to us, contacting us ahead of time and clearly explaining everything about the ryokan. We had plenty of space in our room, futon was very comfy, and it had a really nice traditional atmosphere which was an important experience of staying in the Dogo Onsen area. Has a reservable private bath if you want a mini onsen to yourself!
