Gifu hotellia

Plussat: One of the best Dormy Inn hotel i have ever stayed at. New, modern and with very thoughtful facilities for the traveller. Would stay again. Close to station. Fresh, tasty and plentiful breakfast. Has onsen. Pleasant waiting area near reception with free coffee.

Miinukset: One of the main reasons I booked this hotel was because it had an onsen available to guests. As is the case at some places in Japan, they have banned guests with tattoos from using the onsen, however, this was not enumerated in the guest contract. That kind of restriction needs to be made clear before booking, which the hotel did not do.

Plussat: Great sauna and hot spring pools. Free night snack (Ramen noodles). Clean and neat room.

Miinukset: No make-up service. The hotel does not provide cleaning or make-up service during your stay at the hotel. But they provided and delivered fresh towels in a bag and put it in front of your room door every day. Very limited food selections for vegetarians for breakfast.

Plussat: Great staff, warm and friendly

Miinukset: Great onsen!

Plussat: Location

Miinukset: Can not refund payment because I have to leave one day earlier due to typhoon attacks Japan. It’s effect to flight schedule. The reception officer told that I am not reserve the room directly with the property website.

Plussat: Free ramen and hangout area, onsen/baths open all hours, clean friendly facilities and staff, location

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Good onsen and nice service.

Miinukset: -

Plussat: Cleanliness of facilities such as sauna and friendliness of staff ... thank you !

Miinukset: The room is kind of small.

Plussat: Onsen was very nice

Miinukset: The towels quality could be better

Plussat: Service 5 stars. Location 4 stars. Room 4 stars. Bath (ONSEN) 4.5 stars. Food 3.5 stars ( review for buffet breakfast only ). Front desk 4 stars. Parking staff 4 stars. Overall: 4.3 stars

Miinukset: If you have issues with walking, this is not the hotel you want to stay.

Plussat: The breakfast is absolutely amazing. Not only is there a huge variety of food available, but it is all very delicious. Not to mention the cool old dude doing pancake art. I could have just relaxed in the dinning area all morning. In addition, the hot spring is first class. There are plenty of different baths so I never felt crowded. If the baths do seem a little to busy for your liking, I recommend going earlier in the evening and later in the morning. Seems like most other people preferred a late evening and early morning trip to the hot spring.

Miinukset: Though checkout was at a typical time, I would have really liked a later checkout time (or a longer breakfast time). Between the great breakfast and wanting to visit the hot spring again the morning, you can feel a bit pressed for time. It would be nice to be able to sleep in and enjoy a relaxing breakfast starting at 8 or 9. But the breakfast starts at 6:30 (which is good for those early-risers) but only lasts until 9am. Maybe this is all very typical for hotels, but, again, I really wanted to be able to take my time and enjoy my morning there a bit longer.

Plussat: Food and hot spring are good

Plussat: Loistava ja ystävällinen palvelu. Kaikki pyynnöt toteutettiin viipymättä. Hyvä ja monipuolinen aamupala. Lisäksi kylpylä ylitti odotukset.

Miinukset: Quite and nice view

Plussat: The entrance and lobby are palatial. Everything in the room was good quality and worked properly.

Miinukset: The hotel restaurants are very expensive.

Plussat: The location is great. Many rooms have a view of the river, and therefore Gifu castle as well. I like being able to rent a bicycle for free. The Japanese restaurant's food is delicious.

Miinukset: It is silly to expect staying guests to also pay extra for the use of the swimming pool and exercise room.

Plussat: Staff was very helpful and friendly.

Plussat: The hotel very nice and good service

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: There were washer/drier combos for 500¥ and the staff was fantastic.

Plussat: The location next to Meitetsu Gifu station within walking distance even with luggages. You can request for extra hard pillows to your room and complimentary drip coffee and tea bags , however you have to ask for them at the reception and pick them up there.

Miinukset: Checking out was not a breeze as we have to rush to the train station for our train , we will held back over the receipt. Actually once you have checked in you will have to make full payment in all the hotels in Japan . It is usually their style to ensure no customer check out without payment. And upon our checking out , the receptionist at the front counter held me back for payment when in actual fact she is supposed to hand me the receipt instead of asking me to pay again ! Must be a new inexperienced Japanese speaking staff , and she had to ask her supervisor to sort it out ! Making us rushed to the train station ! Rather unnerving to be held back over the receipt .

Plussat: Recognized hotel chain and so reliable quality. 3 min walk from Meitsu train station. Small but clean room. Friendly and English-speaking staff. What a surprise to be served by a Chinese at front desk who helped a lot on our inquiries.

Miinukset: Breakfast wasn't cheerful, nor was the restaurant. Floor was a bit greasy. I've stayed in many Daiwa Roynet, and this one wasn't among the best.

Plussat: The wifi is stable, room very comfy and clean, breakfast yummy, staff friendly, and located in center of gifu.

Miinukset: Nothing i didnt like

Plussat: Great location, right in front of Gifu station. There is an elevated walkway and an elevator that will lead you to the property which is great if you have luggages. There is also a convenience store at the 1st floor for all last minute needs. It is quite a bit of a walk from the Meitetsu station, around 7-10 minutes, but it will take you to the train to the Nagoya airport as well as the highway buses to different parts of Gifu, I went to Gujo Hachiman for Bon Odori and it was easy to find the bus schedule, the bus stop and the kiosk to buy the bus tickets. This will be a good base if you want to explore different part of Gifu. The breakfast is also filling and the lady at the frontdesk counter is very helpful when I asked for information on flight and train cancellation due to tropical storm Krosa.

Miinukset: The breakfast lounge is cramped and need to wait for more seats during peak times. I wish the free coffee service is also open before 630am for early risers like me.

Plussat: Breakfast, which comes with the stay, had a wide variety of foods to select from, including some western breakfast items. The coffee and tea flowed freely all day. The staff were very friendly and polite.

Miinukset: Tiny bathroom.

Plussat: The location is right next to the station and we could see Nobunaga from our window. There are many restaurants near the hotel. The twin bedroom is big enough for 2 suitcases (1 midium 1 Handluggage) and the beds are wide! The price is absolutely OK with all standarts.

Miinukset: The breakfast tastes good,but the athmosphere is not nice. The bathroom seems a little old, but it was clean.

Miinukset: The room is smell very strong cigarette!! We have to go buy the perfume spray to lessen the smell and have to open the windows at night though it helps just some. Also the room and the bathroom are very old. Breakfast was below average.

Plussat: The most comfortable room of our trip. A traditional Japanese room with a Japanese bathroom. Lots of room for the three of us. Beds setup by housekeeping was a lovely surprise. Breakfast was traditional Japanese. Gifu Castle a bus ride away was worth visiting.
