Best Naoshima Hotels

"The steep hill leading up to My Naoshima Lodge felt quite unwelcoming at first, but to my pleasant surprise, beautiful cats came out to greet us! Being an avid cat lover, that really was a great perk for me. Anyway, the hotel, being relatively new, had very clean facilities and I really had nothing to complain about except for the relatively earlier checkout time (10AM! Seriously?😭) compared to other accomodations and inaccessibility to eating spots. Definitely recommend stopping by at the only 7Eleven in Naoshima on your way uphill."

"Near to Miyanoura Port, coming from Uno Port. It is a mere 4 min walk from the port. There is no reception to inform you of the room. So we opened the doors to each building. My name was on a piece of paper near the door/ shoe shelf. If there is someone staying in a building, he/she/ they would have locked the door so no worries. Big clean and nice :)"

"I got a whole house. Didn't expect it to be that big: kitchen, living, bedroom, shower, toilet, washing machine, all that in a quiet surrounding, with all the privacy you want."

"Excellent place. I wish I had been able to book the following night. I had to move to another place, which was an awful experience compared to here."

"役場前バス停からすぐ近く。 本村の家プロジェクトやその他アートへのアクセスは抜群で、徒歩で簡単に回れます！ チェックイン前後で荷物も預かってもらいました。 チェックイン、チェックアウト以外では特に店主と会うことありませんでしたが、とても気さくな良い方でした。 程よい距離感でお客さんのタイプによって接客を変えてくれていそう。私にはちょうどよかったです。 お部屋も民宿とはいえとても綺麗。浴衣も用意されているし、水回りも綺麗。少し壁の薄さや経年劣化している箇所見受けられましたが、そこまで気にならなかったです。 とても良い宿でした"

"This little guesthouse is simple but so well priced and met all our needs - mostly its close proximity (15 minutes walk) to both Honnura port area and the start of the Benesse house art zone, the main locations for the absolutely amazing art installations on Naoshima. Room was well sized, clean, secure and warm. The host was very friendly - he even gave us a lift into the Benesse area to give us a great head start on our day, and securely stored our luggage for the day. I would definitely stay here again. For those coming to Naoshima I would recommend staying 2 nights so you are not rushing your time on this beautiful serene island and make sure you book various galleries well in advance, they sell out even in off season!!"

"better than the picture,i like it here very much"

"This homestay is in the residential area of Zhipu area of Naoshima. There is a bus at the door (Emperor Xia Station). The room is very spacious and comfortable. You can cook. There are 2 restaurants near the homestay. One eats ”Osaka roast” and one is a ”ramen shop”. The landlord is very talkative and speaks good English. Also introduced me to a beautiful cafe near me - Naoshima Coffee, walk for about 10 minutes, passing a good beach. Figure 6.7 is a cafe, and Figure 8 is a bus timetable."

"At the seaside yellow pumpkins, there are baths, yurts, and the RVs are quite special. It feels like camping, and the seascape is beautiful. It is rarely eaten nearby. Bathing coin, 10 days hot water 100 yen. I like to go to the sea quietly."

"Stayed one night in an ocean view twin room (balcony) in October 2023 [Good points] - The view from the balcony of the room is amazing - The hotel's interior and exterior design is original, based on the concept of learning from the past - The food at the adjacent restaurant FORQ is delicious - Tamano is the only place where you can watch keirin races from the balcony - Good access to the art island of Naoshima [Points to note] - Dinner at the restaurant is shared with the general public, and reservations are required for windows, so we were unable to sit - The sea breeze is strong when watching from the balcony, and it is cold at night - There are vending machines, but they do not sell alcohol, so if you want to drink, it is better to bring your own - It is a bit of a tough distance to walk to the nearest supermarket or convenience store - Apparently you cannot watch from the balcony during the midnight keirin races - The large public bath is not available during the keirin races, only showers are available [Overall review] This hotel is recommended for people other than keirin fans. It is also recommended as a place to stay for sightseeing on the art island of Naoshima."
