Strait View Shimonoseki

This Hotel offers a close-up view of ships passing through the Kanmon Straits right from your Room. It’s the best. We set a chair by the window and never got bored watching all kinds of ships coming and going.The night view is also wonderful.For dinner, we chose the cheapest Plan since the website said additional dishes were available, and we ordered items like fugu sashimi and abalone sashimi by phone. The staff’s phone service was excellent as well.Rice, miso soup, and dessert are served buffet-style, so for those who don’t drink alcohol, it’s nice to be able to go get them whenever you want.There are a few minor things that stood out, but overall it was such a satisfying trip for us that they didn’t matter.We would definitely like to visit again.

We stayed for 2 nights with No Meals Included. The price was low, but the view and the bath were great, and the Room was spacious, so we were very satisfied. At check-in, we received a drink service voucher for our next visit. I would have been happier if it could be used at check-in; I’d like to come again someday, but it doesn’t seem like we’ll be able to use it...
