Fine stay

The room was clean and wide enough for two persons (twin bed room) with respect to a Japanese hotel standard. Location was good. 3~5 min walk from Matsue station and 20 min walk to Matsue castle. Breakfast was fine. Although a western-style bread, egg and coffee breakfast was available, I took Japanese local foods, soba and freshwater clam miso soup.

OK hotel

Japanese hotels can have very small rooms and the showers are often only waist high so you need to sit down and wash or get everything wet. Having a TV in the bathtub makes the chance of electrocution high! Clean room but after a few days it felt cramped and boxed in. Breakfast downstairs disappointing - too much sugar in cereal and not much to choose from. Fish has plenty of bones if you want to choke or nibble for an hour. Coffee very ordinary - reminds me of a backpackers in Europe. Some days were better than others. Staff were all nice and polite and made up for some of the inconvenience.

Wonderful breakfast, convenient location

The room we stayed in was the smallest of our entire trip. Very tight for two people. The hotel was clean but a little run down, only worth noting if you have bad dust allergies. The front desk seemed positively terrified of having non Japanese guests--also a first on our trip, especially since I can speak (pretty terrible) Japanese. Breakfast and neighborhood were excellent.

Convenient Matsue hotel

The hotel is conveniently located within a four minute walk from the Matsue main train station. It’s proximity to shopping malls, food halls and other restaurants made this an excellent choice for independent travellers as well as family!
The room is rather small but the bathroom is adequately furnished with a excellent bath tub with full-force water pressure! The tub is best suited for mid-sized guests as it’s boxy and not full length! However a built-in seat inside more than meets our expectations!
The shampoo, conditioner and body soap available are excellent branded Japanese products.
Light brewed coffee is available at the small lobby at no charge and this is an excellent pick-me-up during this winter season as well as a hot beverage to keep oneself warm and reenergised!
From 9:30pm till 11pm, they also offered room guests a free bowl of Yonaki soup soba as supper!
Overall, an excellent money for value stay within Matsue city as well as a pit stop for nearby places of interests like Izumo-taisha shrine and the Adachi Museum!

Dormy Inn Express Matsue-Near JR Matsue

The location is really convenient. There is a bus stop located near the hotel and has buses stopping by every few minutes that go to JR Matsue. Possibly it's because it is an \"Express\"? The room and breakfast hall are smaller than the ones at Dormy Inn Izumo, so breakfast time can be quite packed. Staff are friendly, professional, and extremely helpful.

Dormy Inn Express Matsue is 5mins (2-3 blocks) from JR Matsue Station, within walking distances to numerous restaurants and convenience stores.
It was an easy check-in and check-out and they offer luggage storage after check out.
The room is clean and spacious with basic amenities - A/C, TV/cable, WiFi, fridge, and desk, hair dryer, pajamas, and blackout drapes. The full-size bed was very comfortable. The bathroom is compact with free bathroom toiletries: shampoo/conditioner/body wash, toothbrush, and shower cap.

Very convenient with several nice touches

This is the first Dormy Inn I have stayed at so not sure if this is typical.

Very comfortable stay with a few highlights being:
5 min walk to JR Matsue station.
Washing machines / drier on 2nd floor are free. Washing detergent provided and being a front-end loader, allow approx 3 hrs for full wash and dry cycle.

The Homestar Aqua is a nice touch which provides a projection of the stars onto the ceiling. Being portable, this can also be used when taking a bath.

Free soba noodles are provided in the restaurant every night between 21:30-23:00 (suggest go after 22:00 to avoid the rush).

Also, free ramen from (I think) 9:30 PM to 11:30 PM.
Also clever: they had a switch on the refrigerator frame, to switch it off in case the hum bugs you at night.
Plus the usual superfriendly service (brought us extra pillows to the room within 5 minutes after asking).

Dormy Inn Express- Matsue

As the last stop on my 2 weeks in Japan trip for this year I was very happy to have the least distance to walk from the station in comparison to the previous 3 hotels. A real bonus was the offering of a \"free midnight snack\" between 9:30-11pm of Yonaki Soba. Truly oisshi. Also the provision of free Welcome coffee was...well...welcome. Breakfast was cheaper than Hotel Hokke Club in Fukuoka and better. The choice of warm or cold Izumo Soba and a selection of tempura along with the usual breakfast suspects was excellent. On the whole a very pleasant place to stay. The only minor gripe would be the lack of a view but I suppose the main thing hotel room has to offer is a comfortable bed giving a good night's sleep and the Dormy Inn Express delivered on that so....
