Traveling to Japan? Find Tottori Prefecture hotels

Rooms are very clean. The hotel do not allow you to wear shoes to rooms and even lift lobbies. You have to lock your shoes in the lockers on Ground Floor. So everything is clean. Like other places in Tottori-ken, I suggest you book also the dinner and breakfast as there are not much (or even no) choices of restaurants. I booked the hotel without breakfast and dinner and then I discovered that restaurants around the hotels were closed at night. I had to pay the dinner in the hotel.

We stayed at one branch in Yonago but were first in Tottori for the Shan Shan matsuri (festival). I didn't know how to tie the obi on my new yukata, and my Japanese friend didn't either. We went to the hotel in Tottori and they helped us a great deal, lending me strings for my yukata, putting my obi on properly, and even holding my suitcase for me for free while we went to the festival. I highly recommend this friendly hotel, who will go out of their way to help you in any situation.

Excellent location right next to the JR Yonago Station within a minute walk. Since I was travelling with a car, free parking is available in the car parks next to the Hotel with one outdoor and one indoor options which provide sufficient parking spaces. Remember to present the parking ticket to the Reception staff and they will record the complimentary status for you. The Reception staffs were friendly and helpful as usual Japanese politeness. Communication in English was not a problem for them as well. Price was very reasonable with their spacious room size. You can get every basic amenities you need in the room, complimentary. The buffet breakfast was excellent too. Plenty of Japanese and Western choices which was far better than other Hotels I stayed in Tottori area. If you are looking for an International business hotel in Yonago, I think this will be the only choice and very convenient to travel around as it is well located next to main bus stop and JR station.

We were wowed by the hotel when we first arrived at night by car. There were a huge parking lot despite the public onsen and amazing seaside view! Location was good to where we wanted to go, we drove all the way from Tottori Station to the hotel easily within 3 hours, stopping by the sea to view and conan museum, Was only 20 mins drive to Mizuki Shigeru road, 30 mins drive to Adachi Museum of Art. Our luggage lock was stuck and the staff helped us in a second :D, thank you very much! Guests here were also friendly, mixed of local and tourists. We visited during early Nov morning cold scroll along the beach was nice with people jogging and dog walking. Breakfast was nice and simple with sea view! The onsen were a bit crowded but nice. Overall pleasant stay and priced right!

I was in this hotel for one day originally. Due to itinerary changed, I booked another consecutive night after I arrived Japan. When I arrived the hotel, they were detail-minded that they asked me if I made something wrong as I booked 2 nights. I booked a non smoking room. They said there is a smoking room available ( which is of higher storey with better view) to see if I wanna change. They brought me see the room to decide. I am satisfied with their fine service. Their check in explanations were very clear. Finally about the shuttle service, since Misasa is a rather rural place about several kilometres away from Kurayoshi JR Station, the hotel provides shuttle service between the hotel and JR Station. Their service was very good. It requires only 30minutes for them to arrange shuttle service. I arrived Kurayoshi Station and called them to drive me to hotel and they are perfectly ok for my request.

This is a traditional Japanese ryokan. we enjoyed the real good Japan here. Bedding is very clean. The freshly rematted tatami was very nice to step on. Although the dining area was very crowded at dinner time, the number of pure japanese dishes are astounding. Numerous fish served were extremely fresh. This was one of the best Ryokan/restaurant we ever stayed in Japan. Highly recommended to enjoy the true traditional Japan.

Pros: excellent location,3 mins walk directly opposite Tottori Station. Room, though small was very clean with clean bedsheet and pillows. Toiletries were replenished daily. Staff was super helpful and polite. They could speak a little English. Cons: a small fee charged for elevator parkjng of car- ¥500 per night. When we were there in June, hotel's ground floor was undergoing renovation hence no hot breakfast as was supposed to be included in our booking. They gave guest bento box for breakfast instead.

I stayed at Drop Inn only one night. This experience was amazing from the moment I arrived. It is only a 3 minute walk from the Tottori station. The whole facility is clean and the capsules are very spacious. The hotel provides everything you might need besides a full kitchen for you to use as it has its own cafe. The winning factor for me was the staff. They were all so very helpful. There were two females there who’s English was better than their male counterparts but that did not stop any of them from taking care of my needs and questions. I’m so glad I found this hotel. As far as sightseeing, as a JR pass holder, Tottori is not the most convenient. The hotel is a 370 yen and 30 min bus ride from the sand dunes. To the Uradome Coast, it will take about 45 min and 610 yen by bus. Because I couldn’t bare this expense both ways, I took the jr train from oiwa but that will mean a bit of walking and planning because the trains don’t run so often. This was absolutely fine for me.

The overall impression of the hotel is excellent. The rooms are clean and tidy. Staff are pleasant and helpful. Breakfast are presented beautifully and delicious. The sea view from the hotel room is magnificent. The location of the hotel is easy to find by GPS. Car park is located just opposite the hotel and spaces are enough. You can find some eateries just a few minutes walk from the hotel. However there is only one onsen which is free to use.

We spent New Years Eve here for 2016 and had a blast. This is a beautiful part of Japan, and we really enjoyed the natural, clean, pine scented air. The hotel is older, and some parts of it are quite worn. Our carpet was heavily stained. The flip side of that is with small kids we were not too worried about them messing up stuff. The place has a very informal and friendly feel even though it is quite large. The staff was helpful and smiling and seemed genuinely friendly. Our room was very big for Japanese standards, as were the hallways and public areas. The buffet breakfast was very tasty..it was buffet food but the quality seemed high, we liked almost everything we ate, Japanese and Western. We did not manage to eat at any of the restaurants, but they smelled good. They had some fun events for New Years, and we had a good time in the onsen, which was also very big. On site gift shop had a lot of neat local stuff for sale...even microbrew from the local brewery. They had a pretty big games area too. I think this is a very fun place, a bit tired, but a great value. We would happily stay again.

We only spent one night, but wished we could stay longer. Very few of the staff could speak some English, but that didn't stop them for assisting us. The dinner and breakfast was delicious. I highly enjoyed their tea. Even though the dining staff didn't speak English and we spoke very simple Japanese phrases, it still felt appreciated that they did their best to accommodate us. We were upgraded to a much larger room since they thought we had a leak, though I felt like there was nothing wrong. The onsen was nice and relaxing. We didn't know how to setup the bedding, and a nice uncle from the staff helped make our futons when they upgraded our room. From the greeting at the door to the goodbye when we left, it felt like a wonderful far away escape. If anyone has a fear of spiders, be wary when going out at night. They're everywhere in Japan, but more so here since it's a small town surrounded by nature. I didn't really mind since they help by eating other bugs.

The friendly owner, Kengo, is really working hard to make you feel welcome, providing all information he possibly can. It's a new hostel, and you can feel the enthusiasm with which he's managing it. After some initial confusion about my booking, I stayed in the traditional Japanese room, as a futon is preferable for me because most dorm beds are too short. The house is nice, the facilities well maintained, the price tag is fair. Go there, you won't regret it.

Guesthouse Famusuton is really nice. The owner is friendly, and he recommended me nice spot. The guesthouse is quite near to the station, only need to walk for about 7mins. And there is a 24hr Family Mart just next to the guesthouse. Environment of guesthouse is also good. It is very clean and tidy, hygiene amenities was much better than I thought before. The most recommendation point is its price, it is so cheap that only 1980yen for a night. Really recommend to Guesthouse Famusuton!

It is very closed to train station and also there is a bus stop, if you are going to 20 century pear museum. The hotel is located in small avenue, so it is very quiet and some restaurants and convinient stores near by. Staff are very friendly and they have microwave for guests to use and top floor has public bath, ladies in the morning and afternoon. Men's are in the evening.
