A gem of a place. Stayed here at the end of April and the location and place were an experience. The dinner and breakfast were also excellent and we greatly appreciated the shuttle back to the ferry the next day. Highly recommend.

Miyajima is beautiful and the property is in a pretty area. The hotel is older and has not been updated. We had the Japanese style room, which was not very comfortable. The futons were quite thin so we did not sleep well. (We stayed in a traditional Japanese room at a different hotel and we were comfortable.) The room was large however, and had a nice view of the forest. There was a refrigerator in the room.
There is a hotel shuttle to the ferry terminal, it is small and fills up so book ahead if you want to use it. There is also a bus stop across the street (in front of the aquarium) that goes to the ferry terminal for 300 yen. We used the bus (van) which was quick and convenient.

This is one of the older inns on Miyajima; however, the dedication of the staff, and the service and kindness they provided is top notch. In a way, this is not particularly unusual in Japan, where especially the older institutions still provide service and consideration far above expectation. Yes, the facilities are not new; however, they are of excellent quality, and have been well-maintained.

Rooms are well-kept, and again, dated; however, I personally find this charming. This facility is what's written about in guide books. Books!

Value was exceptional, and much effort was put into the ingredients, presentation, and service during dinner and breakfast. Take a moment to admire the cat-sized koi in the lobby. Hotel is a little walk past the Itsukushima Shrine, a stone's throw from the water, in a quieter residential part of town. Shuttle ride back to the ferry terminal was entertaining as it wove through the back streets of this otherwise busy tourist town.

I look forward to returning.

Tucked away where the deer like to hide from the tourists. Our room was classic Japanese style tatami mat with futon with a stunning view of the brightest full moon. Highly recommend a night on Miyajima.

Amazing hotel. I stayed in a traditional Japanese style room with tatami mats and futons to lay out for bedding. The room had a forest view overlooking some beautiful trees and I even spotted a baboon coming out of the forest one morning while relaxing. Traditional dinner and breakfast is included. Dinner was several courses of delicious Japanese delicacies. Sushi, hot pot, too much to list. Breakfast was no less. The staff was incredibly polite and helpful with everything I needed. I believe they offer a shuttle service back to the ferry as I was offered one when I checked in. The next morning when checking out there was no mention of it, but I was pleased to enjoy the short walk back through the shopping areas and seeing the torii gate again anyway. I wound up spending the entire next day on the island climbing Mount Misen so skipping the shuttle was a blessing in disguise. I definitely recommend this hotel

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The facility, although dated, was very clean. The public bath was also very clean and they provide all amenities needed. I would suggest you order the half board, as there is not much open after 6:00pm. There is a convenience store in the lobby of the hotel.

The MorinoYado Inn is located across the street from the aquarium, which is about a 15-20 minute walk from the ferry terminal. It’s a lovely seaside walk.

The ryokan and the facilities for public bath are nice. It is rather far from the main area of Miyajima. It is located by the aquarium, past the shopping street and shrine. About at 25 min walk from the ferry. You may be able to call the hotel to request a shuttle from the ferry. We were able to drop off our luggage and explore the island.
When we had our kaiseki dinner and breakfast, the staff is very attentive. You need to call 3 days ahead to ask for all vegetarian menu. I messaged the property through the Expedia app, but they didn’t respond. There were mixed messages of wearing the yukata at dinner. We weren’t sure if we needed to. We asked the front desk and they said to wear it. When we went to dinner, we were the only ones wearing it. Another thing we did not care for is to set out your own futon bedding. The other ryokans we stay at have the staff setting out the bedding for us.
It was very convenient to have a shuttle to the ferry, since it is on the other side of the area. The driver was so nice, trying to get us to the port before the next ferry left.
Overall, a very nice hotel with modern conveniences like a refrigerator in the room, separate shower, toilet and sinks.

Amazing Service at a Traditional Hotel

The service at this hotel was beyond excellent. They did a great job of accommodating our dietary needs even though we did not think to write ahead (if you have restrictions you should). During check out, we forgot to pack our daughters journal, they called the driver that took us to the ferry and sent an extra shuttle to the ferry terminal to deliver it a few minutes later. The baths are large, fantastic and not particularly busy when we used them.

Great Ryokan for a decent price

We arrived a bit early with all our luggage (coin lockers unavailable due to G7 summit). They prepped our room as soon as possible so we could check in earlier. Hotel staff is very kind and polite. Meals are great as well. The room is a bit outdated but very clean.

Would recommend this Ryokan very much.

Peaceful, quiet and clean!

Great local stay for our trip to Miyajima. We were backpacking and this was perfect for our splurge night. We're glad we stayed overnight so we could start our day early the next day. We enjoyed both dinner and breakfast at the ryokan which was peaceful and nice staff. Since the Torii gate was under reconstruction, there weren't too many other guests, so we got to enjoy the onsen by ourselves. The shuttle at the ryokan to the JR ferry terminal was extra convenient (just request at front desk ahead of time). We stowed our luggage after check in at the ferry terminal for the day. The quieter and slower pace of life at miyajima was a welcome change.

Walked to hotel from ferry port through attractions and shops. The hotel sticks to check in time was a hour early so waited. Booked a Japanese room with futon.. Had to make up own bed, used 3 futons for base, didn't want bad back. Room was big but was for 5, only 2 of us. The sink was very dirty and surrounding area. The doors were grubby. But was a quiet lovely area to stay and different.

Good location, good service, but a bit outdated

Good location. Service was good. It is a good walk from the ferry, but they provide a shuttle service. Please note, you must call to reserve the shuttle; this could be a challenge if you do not speak Japanese. We had to ask for assistance at a tourist center and they called for us.
The onsen was nice. Breakfast was good; we did not have the dinner. The place it outdated and it shows all around the property. It needs a good overhaul.
We booked the traditional room for the experience.

Morinoyado was a good place to stay for an overnight in Miyajima. We arrived as it was getting dark and the hotel is a good 20 minute walk from the ferry terminal - so I would recommend getting there earlier so you are finding your way in the light (follow signs for the aquarium - it is right opposite it). Also be aware that most of the eating places in Miyajima don’t stay open into the evening, and the hotel will only accommodate you if you have pre-booked (which we hadn’t). The hotel serves a lovely Japanese style breakfast - but be punctual - we got a reminder call when we were 2 minutes late for our 8:30 slot!

A nice and charming old Japanese ryokan. People were nice and helpful. They drove us to the station the day we left. It’s a bit far away from the station to carry on the luggage.
They provided an interesting Japanese style dinner and breakfast. Waiters were helpful as much as they could.
The onsen was fine and a good experience after a long day.
We booked a big room and it was fine. Just the beds a bit old. But we had a good rest anyway.

Un belle nuit au calme sur Miyajima

Nous avons passé un très bon séjour sur Miyajima. L’accueil et le service étaient excellents. Nous avons enlevé une étoile pour les repas qui étaient juste corrects, diversifiés. Et pour la literie sur futons peu épais (malgré deux l’un sur l’autre et mon gabarit léger)
Emplacement au calme, bains, service de navette de bagages et de personnes sont de vrais plus. Je conseille ;)

Merci pour le professionnalisme et la gentillesse du personnel qui nous a expliqué les différents plats proposés. L'hôtel est idéalement situé proche de l'aquarium.. un peu en retrait de l'agitation ambiante.
Nous avons pu profiter pleinement du bain public qui était très s agréable après une bonne après-midi de marche.

Accueil très agréable. Possibilité de venir nous récupérer au ferry (et dépôt le jour du départ), de laisser ses bagages avant le Check-in ou après le Check-out. En prime, Tsuboi-san m'a aidé à mettre mon propre kimono que j'avais acheté plusieurs années avant et dont j'avais oublié la méthode pour la ceinture. Les bains étaient très bien aussi. Je reviendrai un jour avec ma conjointe pour lui faire découvrir

Intressant upplevelse att bo på Japanskt ”Inn”

Stora rum, bra badrum. Härligt med japanskt spa (omsen) på hotellet. Väldigt varmt vatten. Intressant med japansk frukost och middag som ingick i priset när vi bodde här. Alla rätter passade dock inte våra svenska smaklökar. Men mycket mat, så vi behövde inte gå hungriga från målen. (Utom en av sönerna som föredrog att ta toast på stan istället.)
