Okura Hotel Marugame

The hotel is located by the sea, convenient for travel, the hot springs are very comfortable, and Marugame City is close to Takamatsu. There are no convenience stores around the hotel, so it is best to book breakfast. The hotel bread is very delicious 😄.

I was able to heal in my room while looking at the Saetonaehae Bridge and also had a delicious breakfast.

I had high expectations for Hotel Okura, but perhaps the price was reasonable considering... The hotel seems to have been renovated, as the exterior is very beautiful and there is no problem with parking. I requested a sea view from my room in advance, but it was not granted (tears) The room was very old, the air conditioner was noisy, and it felt like it was not cleaned properly, which was disappointing. The large communal bath was very spacious and clean, so I was able to relax! It was not a hot spring, but it was spacious and the view was great. And speaking of Okura, breakfast is a must! I went there with high expectations, but alas? It was just a very ordinary buffet... It was delicious. If you think of it as a business hotel, it is a very average hotel! Don't get your hopes up just because it's called Hotel Okura. There seemed to be very few hotel staff, but the staff were well-mannered.

I had some expectations for the Okura brand, but it was just average. The breakfast food was not fresh either. Perhaps because it was Golden Week, the venue seemed to be a temporary banquet hall, and the seats were difficult to sit in.

I stayed here because of its location, so I woke up to a clear, beautiful view in the morning. However, there were no amenities 😅 No water or coffee. Although some hotels now provide other small necessities, I was right to bring my own just in case. I wish they had paid a little more attention to detail.

I stayed here for business, but it felt like it was just the bare minimum. The refrigerator was turned off, and I was wondering why there was no ventilation fan in the bathroom. The convenience store happened to be temporarily closed when I stayed there, but I wasn't informed of that until I asked the front desk, so I thought it would be nice if they could share any information that was already there before or at the time of check-in. (There are not many convenience stores around) It was nice that the windows were large.

I made a mistake with my reservation, but I'm glad they dealt with it sincerely. I'd like to stay here again next time I go to Shikoku.

The front desk staff was very polite and helpful. The large communal bath was as good as the reviews said.
