Hotels near Sun Arena, Ise

Everything i needed and nothing I didn't

Great place, way better than I expected. Very clean, modern, well taken care of. The "capsules" you sleep in are bigger than I expected, with enough space to chill there (they have a little desk inside, with a reading lamp and an outlet to plug your phone or laptop). Rooms are well isolated, you can't get any noise from the outside, so you can rest well. They offer towels, toiletries (toothbrush and toothpaste, razor, hair comb, Q-tip, etc.) and pajamas for free. You can get a new set of towels and change your bed sheets every day for no charge. You have body soap, shampoo, conditioner and cleansing soap in every shower. Common room is spacious, with a bunch of tables and chairs, and it has pamphlets with information about tourist spots, restaurants and so on in the area, board games, music instruments (guitar, bass, piano, etc.), books, mangas and a TV. Common kitchen has kitchenware and utensils to cook there (including stoves, microwave, toaster oven, kettle) and you can have coffee, tea, milk and sweets for free. Wi-Fi works well. There are signs in English and Japanese all around. It's very well located: less than 10 minutes from Futaminoura Station, 5 minutes to a convenience store (Lawson) and 20-something minutes to Futamiokitama Shrine (where the Wedded Rocks -Meoto Iwa- are). Owner is the friendliest person I've ever met at any lodge. He speaks English and Japanese. If I ever go back to Ise, I'm definitely staying here again.

The front desk was very friendly and the room (Japanese style) was clean and cozy.

Easily the cleanest hostel I've ever stayed in. Very kind, welcoming staff, excellent facilities and appliances, with a lot of care taken to the interior design and decor. A close walk from the station and in walking distance to the Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks). I would absolutely stay here again, thank you for such wonderful hospitality!
