This is a very nice business hotel in Kochi. I found the location extremely convenient, as it is not very far from the station, and within walking distance of the castle. Shopping streets are nearby. The staff was very pleasant and helpful. More

Comfortable hotel with pretty big rooms by Japanese standards, well-equipped (iron press for trousers, etc.), nice bathroom. Within walkable distance from most attractions (not that there are too many in the city). For breakfast you choose one of two outside restaurants; I went for the Japanese one, with a variety of local cuisine. Quite hearty. Ugly view from the window. More

Paid 5,500 yen via Rakuten Travel. Very good deal in my book. More
