Book Kobunaki hotels

Route Inn Choshi Eki is a 3-4 year old Hotel that's relatively new. It ticks all the boxes in Quality Service Room and facilities. Staff service that's typically high quality Japanese. Amazing stay and well done.

It reminded me of the city I grew up in. Small town with walkable alleys and little traffic. Loved the room as well. Tried to spend more time outside exploring but found myself inside a bit however I was never dissatified with that. Good place. I also didn't come in with unrealistic expectations.

First 日本語 hotel I have ever been to and it was a great two nights booked!

The hotel was excellent value, less than a minute walk from the station with a public bath and buffet breakfast. The staff were friendly and helpful with quick and easy check in. There is a 7-11 just a couple of minutes away, so even if you get to the hotel late, you can grab a cheap meal and snacks. The only problem I had was breakfast on the first day. I arrived at the restaurant at 8:35am and there was almost no food left. There were others that arrived after me and we did not have enough to eat. The next day, I got to the restaurant before 7:30am and there was plenty of food, so please get in early to make the most of the breakfast.

The service level from the staff was utterly amazing. The location is right on the ocean and near an active lighthouse. One can sit and was the cone of light pass over you. The dining experience is unforgettable in a good way. We would have loved to have stayed longer.

It's quite peaceful around the hotel, such that I couldn't find my fingers from darkness. Almost noboby was found on high streets, either. On arrival, there was a strange smell wafting all over the place. It's like a mix of mould and bleach. It might be because due to moulds between the bathtubs and the bathroom walls of every room, and the hotel staffs were trying to get rid of them using bleach. Simply turn on ventilation and the strange smell could be gone in hours. Be prepared for a walking distance of around 10min to get you to the nearest corner shop or groceries.
