Guests can choose to stay in rooms with Western beds or Japanese futon bedding. The elegant rooms at Kadan Kotohira come with tatami-mat flooring and sliding paper screens. Amenities include an LCD TV, a DVD player and a fridge. Guests can choose to stay in Japanese-style houses, where Ogai Mori wrote his famous novel.

We were extremely fortunate to stay in the Choseiden cottage. The very generous layout and views over the garden towards the faraway mountains, the scrolls, the paintings, the wooden furniture of this once tea house, not too forget the private bath (“Onsen”) with its glass panel onto the forest were exquisite. The staff were most helpful and kind. Very warm thoughts go to Reina who brought us our meals and guided us through the intricacies of the local cuisine, while answering with a joyful warmth our relentless barrage of questions about Japanese culture and herself. A stay which will linger!

Only a 3-minute walk away from JR Kotohira Station, Takaraya is simple accommodation featuring a hot spring bath. It is a 5-minute walk from the famous Kotohira-gu Shrine, or Kompira-san, area.

Rooms are equipped with a TV, air conditioning/heating and free toiletries. Yukata robes are also available in each room. Bathroom and toilet are shared with other guests.

The facility was centrally located. The owners and staff were very accommodating. We were able to communicate adequately even though they didn't speak English and we didn't speak Japanese. The onsens were super clean and the water was toasty. We were impressed with our experience and would not hesitate to stay at the Takaraya again if we ever return to Kotohira.

    The best thing about Kotosankaku is the private open air onsen in the room with a great mountain view. Special praise for the front desk manager Kenji Tanaka who made us feel very welcome.

    The proprietor is lovely and helpful. She gave us a map of places around the ryokan as well as large size loaner umbrellas (larger than our conbini type) which was great as we arrived on a very rainy day. The rooms are as expected for Japanese style in an older building. The onsen is simple but clean and that's all that really matters.

    The place was very good. Staff at counter, parking area and room service staff were friendly, helpful and professional. The room was excellent - big, clean and the futons were comfortable. The onsen was superb. Good restaurant within the premises. In addition varied eating places were within walking distance. The location was closed to a couple of popular places of interest. Recommended for stay in Kagawa area.

    The room was wonderful, large and well decorated. The hotel is really beautiful, you can borrow a yukata for the length of your stay, which was really great! The dinner was delicious, a several course meal with different traditional Japanese dishes. The onsen is open 24h, very convenient, very clean, with several baths available.

    Wonderful blend of east meets west. My room was huge and carpeted, some others were tatami. I believe must have beds rather than futons. The hot spring baths were wonderful. Their are both indoor and outdoor. I paid 3000yen for a private outdoor bath which was good. I didn’t dine in the restaurant for dinner. But breakfast was wonderful. The lounge area turns into a bar at night which was very popular and not expensive.
