Cheap Hotels in Ishigaki

"On our family vacation to Ishigaki, we chose this hotel known for its 'amazing breakfast.' The location is super convenient – a direct bus from the airport to the 'Museum Mae' stop, no transfers needed. The room was a bit on the smaller side, but perfectly fine for two people. The breakfast truly lived up to its reputation! 🎉 They had specialty Ishigaki beef, Okinawan-style stew, and various fish. I even made my own seafood bowl and had some Yaeyama soba – it was incredibly satisfying! 😁 After such a filling breakfast, we didn't even need lunch, which meant more time to explore the sights, which was great! 👍 The only thing to note is that there was no room cleaning service during our stay; we had to put our trash bags outside the door ourselves each day."

"The owner of Ohana guesthouse is amazing! The kindest and most hospitable man i have met. Even though his english is not all that good he really listens with interest and tries to connect. He cooks every night and you're invited to join for a very low price. When we ate together (Hotpot) and everyone was speaking japanese he kept trying to include me in the conversation. When i left after two days he even waved goodbye from the stairs till i turned the corner. The cabins were spacious and had a little fan and a mirror with a ledge inside, which is super nice! The toilets and showers were clean and nice and the little wash area was super cute and had everything you could want. the kitchen has everything you need to cook for yourself but for 200/400/800¥ you can join dinner so i didnt cook. Hands down the coziest guesthouse i have been, massive reccomendations!"

"My stay was from late February to early March, and I was in room 5503. The first thing I noticed, and it's a major plus, is the fantastic location. It's incredibly convenient for island hopping, being right next to the Ishigaki Port Remote Island Terminal. The bus terminal is also within walking distance, making airport access and getting around the city a breeze. Even as a first-timer to Ishigaki, I felt very comfortable getting around. Breakfast was served from 6:30 AM to 9:30 AM at ”Toreador” on the first floor, a Japanese and Western-style buffet. I used it and was pleased to find a good selection of Okinawan dishes, like Goya Champuru and Okinawa Soba, really adding to the vacation feel. It was great that it opened early, allowing plenty of time to eat even before heading out to the islands. The breakfast ticket system was well-managed, and the instructions at check-in were clear, so there was no confusion. My room was generally clean and had a calm atmosphere. While the facilities weren't brand new, they were well-maintained and comfortable. The bed was comfortable, and I was able to get a good rest after tiring days of sightseeing. Being on a higher floor was also a plus, as I wasn't bothered much by outside noise and enjoyed a peaceful stay. The staff were very polite and helpful, and both check-in and check-out were smooth. Their explanations for sightseeing and hotel facilities were easy to understand, which was reassuring. I feel that this kind of attentive service significantly enhances the overall satisfaction of the stay. Overall, the hotel offers an excellent balance of location, convenience, price, and service. I'd particularly recommend it to anyone planning to visit the outlying islands. Even including the actual breakfast and use of the public bath, my satisfaction was high. It's a reliable base for an Ishigaki Island stay. I would definitely want to stay here again on my next visit to Ishigaki."

"Facility was alright. The room was functional with all necessities available. There was even a small balcony as well but not really usable due to close proximity to the other buildings in the area. Good choices available for breakfast - but if you have stayed in the other breakfast hotel (i.e. the Porto) then you might be a bit disappointed with the choices available here (no sashimi). Yet the staff in the restaurant really goes the extra mile to serve you so that's a plus (you need to know a bit of Japanese tho) For those plans without breakfast they would provide you with a smoothie everyday as well so that's a good point. Distance is the main advantage of this hotel as it is located right inside the heart of the city centre, very easy to access all locations in the city centre and surrounded by izakayas and eateries. Limited Parking available tho so you might have to park in those paid car parks nearby (with that said those car parks are very popular as well...)"

"We have enjoyed our stay and it was because of a great job their staff are doing. Every crew, every shift. They all were perfect. They have helped us with every little thing, every issue we've had. They even showed us different rooms in case we are not satisfied with ours. We are sorry to bother you and grateful at the same time. Yes, the breakfast is excellent. Yes, they have welcome ice cream and welcome drinks. Yes, the location is very close to the port and city . Yes, they have plenty of amenities you might need. But the staff is why I recommend this hotel."

"This hotel's location is absolutely perfect! It's within walking distance of the bustling downtown area, the port, and the bus terminal, which was incredibly convenient for dropping off shopping bags or taking a quick break from the heat. Plus, having a convenience store and a drug store right next door was a huge bonus for any last-minute needs. The entire hotel was spotlessly clean. I noticed insect repellent spray in the hallway, but I'm happy to report I didn't encounter any bugs, which was a relief. The nights were quiet, and I wasn't bothered by any noise from other rooms, allowing me to get some really good rest. What truly made this hotel special were the thoughtful and charming details – like the colorful tiled table in the room, and the lanterns provided for using the rooftop area. It was such a lovely touch. Stargazing at night and enjoying the sea view during the day was incredibly relaxing. I would definitely want to stay here again. This hotel was truly a highlight of my first trip to Ishigaki!"

"Very convenient as there’s bus stop just outside the main entrance. Can go to airport, pier & other places easily. Many different restaurants outside the hotel. Lobby is big. All staff is very helpful & friendly although English is not so good. The free welcome tea in the afternoon is tasty. Room is big & sea view is good. Free hot bath/spring is good that can release the tiredness after activity. Breakfast & beef BBQ buffet is good & valuable. But surprisingly, the swimming pool seems not free & small. Anyway no time to use. Conclusively, we like this hotel & valuable in low season."

"Budget hotel, which is located in a very convenient place. Nearby is the port, bus terminal, market, various cafes and shops. I really liked this hotel for its comfort and simplicity. For breakfast they gave me bento, which was enough for two meals. On the day of departure I took bento for the road, and this food was enough until the evening."

"The breakfast offered a wide variety of good quality options, and even on weekdays, the hotel had a high occupancy rate. The staff were very friendly; I was particularly touched when the gentleman responsible for cleaning in the morning bowed to me in a traditional Japanese greeting. We booked sea view rooms through Trip.com, and my friend and I each made separate bookings. It turned out the room types were slightly different, with one being much closer to the sea, which led to a bit of a disagreement with the front desk. Luckily, we speak Japanese, and the hotel eventually made a compromise, for which I'm grateful! I hope Trip.com can be more accurate when describing room types during the booking process to avoid such unnecessary hassle. The hotel is right by the sea, and the water is clear, but it's a shame there's no sandy beach, which was a bit disappointing. The rooms are also on the smaller side."

"The experience was quite disappointing. The hotel receptionists were not helpful and friendly when we ask questions face to face and through phone call. The toilet is quite small. Surprisingly there is no room cleaning service if you stay less than 3 nights, not even clearing your trash bins. During our stay, we heard repeated announcements late in the night and they were all in Japanese. Only when we translated them by our phone we realised it was about the fire alarm. A lot of other hotel residents gathered in the lobby waiting for further instructions. We saw a staff sitting in the office but until the end of the day no one give any information nor explain anything. We ended up going back to our room after our own assessment."
