Daiwa Roynet Hotel Tokushima Station Front

Very convenient location near the station. The bath and toilet are separate, allowing for a relaxing bath time. There is a large parking lot nearby, so arriving by car is no problem. The breakfast is top-notch for a Business Hotel. Overall, the building and rooms are new, providing a comfortable stay. However, the partnered parking lot of this Hotel can be difficult to locate, which is the only downside.

This is my second visit to Tokushima City, and I feel like I stayed here last time as well. After arriving at Tokushima Station by a regular city bus (cheaper than the nonstop airport limousine bus), the Hotel is located on the “left side” of the station area when viewed from Tokushima Station—something like Sakyo Ward in Kyoto’s old city layout. There’s a convenience store on the first floor that connects directly from inside, and check-in is done on the third floor via elevator. Using the semi-self check-in machine, we received our Room key without any issues and headed up to the assigned 9th floor. The Room, just like last time, faced down toward the station-front bus terminal, with views of Amco (the commercial building) and JR Tokushima Station. While there’s a bit of age to it, the Room has a modern, refined design. That said, having the closet tucked all the way at the back makes it slightly inconvenient to use because it interferes with the sofa. The large-screen TV is set at an easy-to-watch angle from bed. The separate three-piece bathroom setup is comfortable and may be this property’s biggest highlight. The queen-size bed was extremely comfortable—my wife raved about how well-rested she felt.The next morning while brushing my teeth, I noticed—just like during our stay at this brand’s Matsuyama location last year—that my voice echoes in the sink drain. So naturally I started singing first thing in the morning (lol). After happily getting through a few songs, we had breakfast in the dedicated venue on the second floor. If you book No Meals Included, breakfast can be added for 1,600 yen; it’s a generous buffet with plenty of options including local specialties such as Tokushima-don rice bowls, fish katsu cutlets, and Naruto wakame seaweed. Even though we ate an enormous dinner last night, my wife woke up starving again and was delighted as she filled her plate. There weren’t many inbound travelers; most guests were families—but it felt like a lineup that would satisfy anyone.After checkout they also held our luggage for us until just before our airport bus departure time, so we could keep sightseeing right up to the last minute—making this an ideal Accommodation for this trip as well.
