Sakai Hotel Guide - Senko-no-ie hotels in Sakai, Japan.

"Small room but good layout"

"This hotel offers an exceptional opportunity for non-monastics to explore the Eiheiji Temple nearby in comfort. The building is new and well designed, and the breakfast and dinner are exquisite vegetarian offerings from the former Temple Chef. The staff are kind and hospitable, and well organized in facilitating Temple visits. "

"Wonderful stay"

"Wonderful location!"

"Staff were friendly and helpful. The room was pretty big, clean, and had a nice view of the outside. The location was very convenient since it's a few minutes from Fukui station. I highly recommend if you plan to stay at Fukui!"

"Helpful staff, a lovely room, excellent food and beautiful surroundings made our stay a highlight of our visit to Japan. Highly recommended for people who enjoy stays in quieter villages. We will return."

"Our room was spacious and very clean. The private onsen was large and very comfortable, looking out over the river but completely private. We had the kaiseki dinner each night which was elaborate and delicious. The town of Yamanaka is very pretty with fun row of shops specialising in lacquer wear and pottery, some cafes, the usual restaurants and a big public men's and women's bath, along with a beautiful walk in the gorge along the river. All of this is within 5-15 minutes walk of the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and even helped us send a suitcase forward to our next hotel using Yamato transport. Multiple staff members spoke only some English, which made my rudimentary Japanese quite useful. However, all the staff are so keen and helpful that even if you speak no Japanese with Google translate and some time it would be fine. "

"A nice stop over while road tripping from Kyoto to Shirakawa. Very friendly staff, good stores within a few blocks to stock up on amenities."
