니포니아 호텔 다케하라 솔트웍스 타운

Recommend. Clean, functional rooms. No plastic, all natural materials. Delicious dinner and breakfast. However, please be aware that rooms (at least the one I stayed in) have very steep staircases to the bedroom and many other little steps inside such as just before the staircase! Not suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Also be aware there are building works going on right outside the main building. I didn’t see any mention of this in Agoda so worth checking in advance. It didn’t really affect me as my room was in another street but it was extremely loud if you were in the main building. The staff were mindful and apologetic and warned us at breakfast the noise was about to start. Btw I noticed there was a lot of construction going on in and around the old town. A huge positive is the lounge bar which is free for hotel guests. It’s in a lovely building and when I was there it was empty so not buzzing with vibes, it was just wonderful to be able to have a glass of sake and look out at the garden.
