forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.54 out of 5 (1,325 reviews). Many guests describe the rooms as spacious and clean, and reviews often mention comfortable stays with coffee on the terrace or a room with a view of fireworks. At breakfast, the grilled scallops in the shell are a favorite, letting you enjoy the local flavors first thing in the morning. Some guests also note that the roomy bathtubs make it easy to bathe a child, so the hotel appears to suit families well. On the other hand, several guests mention noticing odors in the room or near the bath and toilet, so please keep that in mind.
