Great location close to the rail station but yet quiet enough. Room with twin beds was a little bigger than the terribly cramped rooms one usually get. Bathroom small but fully functional. Shower and aircon work fine. Good value 600 yen breakfast available. Only thing I didn't like was the petty functionary on reception when I checked in who kept us waiting right until the stroke of 3pm to give me the room key. After I was super abrupt with him he showed a lot more proper attitude.

This hotel is very well located. Just a few minutes walk from Tottori station. Staff speak minimal English and even give wrong information on how to go to tottori sand dunes. It is better you ask the infomation centre at the tottori station. Hotel room is ok, as usual small but very clean. Bed is nice and shower is good too. There's a lot eateries surround this hotel. Free water, coffee, chococolate drink and tea at the lobby. Overall, I will stay this hotel again

“For budget travelers”

The only attractions are the price and slight larger room among hotels of the same price range. Please note that you have to climb a flight of stairs to the reception and off street parking in front of the hotel is not always available.

This hotel is opposite Tottori station (as the name indicates) so is probably very convenient for those travelling by train. We arrived by car, which wasn't quite as convenient. Although it said parking was provided, there rules that we were not aware of until we arrived. The parking was in a lot adjacent to the hotel, and not owned by the hotel. The hotel had obviously made an agreement with the lot owners for guests to use it between check-in and check-out times. During these times guests receive a voucher that provides free parking. As we were an hour early we went to another parking station and paid until such time as we could park near the hotel. It was raining the day we arrived so having to park some distance from the hotel was not ideal. As the earlier reviewer said, access is via stairs from the street to reception, so not great if you have a lot of luggage or are incapacitated in any way. The reception area is contemporary in appearance. The first staff member we spoke to wasn't particularly helpful, but when we returned at check-in time we were greeted by several very helpful staff who did their best to talk us through the hotel's features. On the reception level is a business centre and a vending machine. I don't know if this was on every level, but on the level we stayed there was an area / open cupboard in the corridor that seemed to provide additional pillows, ironing facilities etc. We did not need any of these things, so I don't know if you could just help yourself or if there was a procedure involved in their use. The room was a standard business hotel type of room: compact, clean and quite contemporary in appearance. What was unusual were the doors to the rooms. They were a hollow metal that made us feel like we were on a ship as they sort of clanged when opened and closed. But these did not seem to affect the noise coming in to the room, so did not impact on our sleep. The hotel is well situated for restaurants and shops although the two nearest convenience stores in the area are some distance away. That said, if you are early enough, there is a large department store on the opposite side of the street that has a great range of products. On check-out the parking became an issue again. It is an open lot, and as it was raining again, it was not comfortable taking suitcases to the car. The hotel staff kindly offered us umbrellas that did help. When we tried to use the voucher supplied for free parking the machine rejected it. So after trekking back to the hotel reception we were accompanied by one of the staff (he may have been the manager, I'm not really sure). Anyway, after the voucher failed to work for him, he actually pulled cash from his own pocket and paid for the parking. I do hope he was reimbursed by the hotel as this turned a potentially sour experience for us into one of great appreciation. He also took the umbrellas they had lent us back to the hotel, saving us from getting wet again. So many thanks to this staff member! In summary, it is a newish business hotel and reasonably priced. Perfect if you arrive by train, but not recommended for car travellers as there is potential for inconvenience.
