Wonderful stay”

We stayed 4 nights in Hotel Maira. The twin rooms were just nice for my teenage daughter and myself. Considered spacious in Japanese context. The staff were very friendly and helpful, especially one lady who is from China. Cheerful all the time. Love the concept of the hotel having the 24 hour drink machine at the lobby, with free bread (breakfast) and steamed buns (twice a day). Distance from hotel to Okayama station was around a 10 mins walk but still manageable. We had such a great time staying here. And not forgetting the cute otter mascot for the hotel. Unfortunately, they only have this hotel in Okayama and not other location. Would definitely stay here again if I visit Okayama. :)

Great place to lay your head.”

Maira has something the other, bigger, more expensive hotels lack........charm. It's got a really homely feel with the most pleasant, helpful staff we have ever encountered. It may not be new and fancy, but the price reflects that.......ut is a place where you can feel readily comfortable and at home. Would stay there every time when in Okayama, and recommend without hesitation. Ross and Jenny Le Bris

I booked this hotel after reading the comments here and I think it is a worth staying place. Although I only stay here for 1 night, I enjoyed staying here with very friendly and helpful staff who recommended me to stroll around the city. The whole setting of this hotel is very welcoming with walls of pics from other visitors together with snacks in the lobby (and breads for the breakfast). I strongly recommend you to stay in this hotel as the supply of the daily necessities with fantastic people here.

The location is within easy walking distance to and from the JR station and the aeon shopping centre. While it’s an older hotel, the facilities in the room were very good. The extras of a great selection of bread buns in the morning was wonderful. Free coffee, hot chocolate and cold free drinks were an added bonus as well. Would highly recommend this hotel.

Because I stayed in the quadruple room, the place was really great. And it was a great value since I got it for a very cheap price. The room was clean, spacious, and complete with everything you need (cooking and dining). It also has a small living space. Good place for groups and friends. A short walk from the station though but lots of places to eat around the area.

Highly recommend Hotel Maira!!”

I selected this hotel because of the high score and good comments on agoda and Hotel Maira didn’t make me disappointed. The price is very cheap, the room is tidy and clean with everything you need inside. You can also enjoy free bread in the morning, free ice lolly and drinks during the whole day. Hotel Maira even provides free bicycle rental service for her customers. We borrowed 2 bicycles from the hotel and rode to Korakuen to view cherry blossom which was amazing. Most importantly, all staff are very polite and friendly. My friend and I will both choose Hotel Maira for sure when we have chances to visit Okayama again! highly recommend for youngsters who doesn’t mind talking a little bit from the central station :)
