I loved Dormy Inn's amenities: the on-site hot springs, complimentary ice pops, Yakult, and evening soba noodles. The service was very friendly, and there's even a free foot bath right outside the entrance.
To get there: Take a ferry from Hiroshima Port to Matsuyama Port. Upon arrival, take a shuttle bus to Takahama Station. From Takahama Station, take the train to Otemachi Station (on this line, Umezu-dera Station is the second stop after Otemachi). Once you exit Otemachi Station, cross the road and catch the tram heading towards Dogo Onsen. Get off at Okaido (大街道), and the hotel is just a two to three-minute walk further in.
The only minor improvement would be for the bedding and bathrobes to be as fresh and dry as the bath towels – that would make the experience absolutely perfect!
The location is excellent! It's right in the middle of the two big transport hubs - JR Matsuyama station and Matsuyama City station. Both stations are 15 mins walk away, or you can take the tram to reach both of them, the tram stop is right next to the hotel. And there are convenient stores just at the corner. Food in the hotel restaurant is good, room is clean. The only thing which is not so satisfied is the internet wireless connection is not very stable. Overall I'm very happy with my stays.
An absolutely wonderful experience.
The hotel's location is excellent, right in the city center. It's next to Kani Doraku, and just a short walk to the main street. Mitsukoshi isn't far either, though this particular Mitsukoshi has a limited selection of brands.
The front desk staff were incredibly nice, with warm smiles and enthusiastic service. They made me feel right at home.
The room size was very comfortable, and the duvet was just right – not too thin, not too thick, perfect.
Breakfast offered a rich variety, including local specialties like the five-colored noodles and snapper chazuke (rice with tea), as well as traditional Japanese and Western dishes. It was very comprehensive.
This was my first stay at this hotel chain, and it was great. I'll definitely choose it again in the future.
The hotel is located very close to Dogo Onsen. It has a special path leading directly to the Onsen shopping street. There are a lot of choices for dinner and breakfast. It has all the facilities you are looking for.
It was decent, nothing special, but fair for the price. If I had to mention a drawback, it wouldn't be the hotel, but Matsuyama city itself. I found the dining options quite limited; outside of convenience stores (konbini) and izakayas, there weren't many appealing places to eat.
Dogo Onsen Chaharu is a hot spring hotel that is full of modern style yet retains Japanese style. It is not far from Dogo Onsen Main Building and has convenient transportation. The rooms are stylishly designed with minimalist style, spacious and well-equipped. Some rooms also offer beautiful views, allowing you to relax. The hot spring facilities in the hotel are excellent, especially the glass-landscaped bathing pool, which has different atmospheres during the day and at night, allowing you to enjoy the ultimate bathing experience. The staff are friendly and enthusiastic, and the service is thoughtful, making people feel the meticulousness and thoughtfulness of Japanese hospitality. The meals are made from fresh local ingredients, beautifully presented and satisfyingly tasty. The overall accommodation experience is quite comfortable. The only minor drawback is the higher price, but it is still worth the money in terms of service and facilities. Highly recommended for travelers who want to enjoy high-quality accommodation in Dogo Onsen!
Very good location. Although, the room was a bit small,it had everything we needed. Nice BF. It would be better if the hotel re-arrange the buffet setting. If the hotel can set food at diff station,it would be easier to access instead of waiting in one long line.
Great location, nice place, the air conditioner worked fine which is important during Japanese winters, the owner was friendly, I went to onsen so not sure about amenities and stuff, but the bunk bed was comfy. Female dorm was nice.
I've been to Okudogo six times, which means I visit Matsuyama frequently. Every time I go, I make sure to visit Okudogo. In spring, the cherry blossoms are stunning. The hot springs are truly wonderful, and the breakfast and dinner are also great. While the rooms are a bit old, they are spacious, and the mountain view from the room is beautiful. I went on December 1st, and the autumn leaves were gorgeous! Highly recommend!
Modern, clean and very nice facility! Guesthouse Tonari can be highly recommended. It’s very clean, the facilities are modern, the beds are confortable and the host very serviceminded and speaks well English. The guesthouse is located a little off the mall biking track, however it’s easy to reach with a small detour. If you are exploring the Omishima Island its very convenient. Please do note that this is a guesthouse and not a hotel hotel, so the review is based on this. There is a small kitchen with what you need for preparing food. There is also a fridge so easy to bring food. Please note that there are not so many restaurants and shops in the vicinity, however the host can provide information. Best to bring some snacks and drinks. There are space for parking bikes.
An excellently located hotel for touring the city. It is right across from the main shopping street. Located on the tram line with short rides to most tourist attractions in Matsuyama. The rooms are well appointed and the parking is accessed from the rear of the hotel site. It is an automated parking system which requires you to drive it into and out of the elevator before it is whisked away. I’d recommend this property to anyone looking to visit Matsuyama.
A Perfect Business Hotel! The rooms are new, clean, and compact but very functional. The bathroom was spotless and shiny. Personally, I really liked the library café in the lobby — a cozy space available to hotel guests even before check-in and after check-out. It offers free drinks, Wi-Fi, and power outlets. Breakfast had a limited selection, but everything was delicious.
We wanted to experience Dogo Onsen and this was a great choice (albeit expensive because it was a holiday weekend). The hotel is lovely and the service is beyond excellent. The staff was super kind as we are English speakers. Plus, we really enjoyed the hotels onsens better than the ones in town (the Dogo Onsen is being renovated and only one room was open for each gender; the same was the case with the Annex). The hotels onsens were lovely and the private outdoor onsen was a really lovely experience. We also took advantage of their convenient bus service into town although it’s only a 10 minute walk and we walked multiple times. Highly recommend!
