Kurashiki Hotel Guide - Ivy Square hotels in Kurashiki, Japan.

"this was a lovely hotel 5 minutes from the bikan historic district and the train station. The room was lovely. The onsen was perfect after a day of travel. "

"I found the staff friendly and professional. Currently they are working on the maintenance of the building exterior. As such, it was covered by a maintenance net. I did not try their breakfast since it ends at 9AM that is away too early but other than that, it is a good business hotel for a solo traveler who just needs some place to stay."

"Excellent value. Best shower in human history!"

"Carpet in 1108 was dirty. Prior guests spilled something on the carpet. It should not have been assigned until cleaned. Having a 45 minute happy hour at the bar is really silly. Usually the happy hours are 2-3 hours. "

"On this trip, I stayed with my family, and we all loved our stay here. The room was spacious for the 3 of us, and the staff were friendly as always. We all loved the breakfast on the 11th floor. "

"Staff super friendly and super close to the train station and shopping so beautiful "

"Verry good spacious rooms"

"Easily accessible"

"Outstanding. Likely the best feature of this property. It is highly convenient, especially if arriving from Okayama. For travelers with luggage, taking the Limited Express train is strongly recommended for ease of access. The room was spacious and very clean, making it ideal for families or those traveling with a lot of luggage. The only minor flaw was a slight layer of dust on the high ledge above the beds. Unmanned check-in was seamless, and the remote customer service team was quick and responsive. A washing machine and detergent are provided in the room, which is a fantastic bonus for longer stays. There is no dryer—plan to air-dry your clothes. The day before my check-in, I received an email allegedly from the hotel requesting my credit card details, threatening cancellation if I did not comply. I was exhausted angter 20-25 k steps from all say and, fearing cancellation at an unmanned hotel, I unfortunately provided the information. This turned out to be a sophisticated phishing scam. While thankfully nothing was charged to my card, I had to immediately cancel it, which caused a major inconvenience for the remaining three weeks of my month-long trip in Japan. While the hotel is not to be blamed the management should investigate how this leak occurred. Putting my experience here for causation for other travelers."
