"The hotel is very nice. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The room was nice and are quite big and well laid out. The views are ok, not extraordinary. Our room was on the 3rd floor and we still could not see any mountains but only roof tops of other surrounding buildings. There is free food and snacks available but only for a limited time. The dinner and breakfast was good but not great. The onsens are the highlight of this property."

"The location is excellent, minutes walk to restaurants, shopping, Yubatake and Sainokawara Park. The room was spotless and the staff was so helpful. The on-site onsen (female side) was boiling hot! The only minor inconvenience was that cars were parked offsite so you needed to coordinate with staff each time you needed your vehicle."

"A lovely Japanese style accomodation. Refreshing to see that shoes are off limits at the property and they provide good lockers for the shoes. Private baths and onsens are available for a soak after a day out to explore. Breakfast is good too though the timings of breakfast are a tad early but best way to start the day ! :)"

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Shima?
The best area to stay in Shima is around the Shima Onsen hot springs, particularly along the Shima River.This area is the heart of Shima, renowned for its therapeutic hot spring waters and natural beauty. The Shima River winds through the valley, flanked by traditional ryokan (Japanese inns) and scenic walking paths. You'll find several public foot baths and stunning spots like Shima Blue, a section of the river known for its incredibly clear, turquoise water.Couples looking for a relaxing and romantic escape will find this area perfect. Many ryokan here offer private onsen baths, exquisite multi-course kaiseki dinners, and serene river views, providing a tranquil setting for reconnecting and unwinding.For those seeking outdoor activities and a bit more adventure, staying closer to Lake Okushima offers convenient access to hiking trails and water sports. The lake is surrounded by lush forests and provides opportunities for paddleboarding or kayaking, making it ideal for active travellers who appreciate nature.
When is the best time to go to Shima?
The best time to visit Shima is during spring (late March to May) or autumn (late September to November) for pleasant weather and beautiful scenery.Spring in Shima brings comfortable temperatures, superb for exploring the natural surroundings. The cherry blossoms usually bloom from late March to early April, adding a lovely touch to the landscapes around Shima Onsen. This season is ideal for couples looking for scenic walks and enjoying the natural beauty without the summer crowds.Autumn offers equally mild temperatures and stunning autumnal foliage, especially around the mountains and valleys surrounding Shima Onsen. The vibrant reds and golds make for picturesque views. This period is also excellent for couples who appreciate outdoor activities like hiking and enjoying the hot springs in a tranquil setting.While summer (June to August) is warm and popular for outdoor activities, it can be quite humid and busy.
