The hotel is connected directly to the Okayama train station through a walkway and an escalator. Super convenient.
We got upgraded and received access to their sky bar, which was lovely.
The hotel room is fine and clean, not as modern compared to some other hotels.

This is an outstanding place to stay, save for two issues. First, there was no way to control the the air temperature in the room. It was set on a building wide basis. Second, there was no way (at least not one we could figure out) to turn off the room lights while the master switch was activated with the room key. If someone needed to use the bathroom in the middle of the night and wanted some light in the bathroom, they had to insert a room key into the master switch, which would also turn on all the room lights and disturb the other occupant. Alternatively, one could fumble around in the dark using a flashlight app on a cellphone. Other than those issues, the hotel was fantastic. The staff was incredibly helpful and polite. The location (across the street from the railway station) is ideal if one is traveling by train. The hotel provided a happy hour with free drinks (beer, liquor and soft drinks) plus a nice assortment of free snacks in the 20th floor bar, which had a lovely view of the city and surrounding mountains. Except as noted above, the facilities are very nice.

The staff were really kind and professional, providing excellent service and help, but the actual facilities were not great. There is no on site laundry (there is a service only on Monday to Friday), the AC is centrally controlled with the only alternative being off, and the actual room was not very clean. The bathroom was full of someone's hair across the tub and curtain, with some mould spots around the place (around the sink rim and under the handle in the tub). Just a few straight forward improvements would make this a lot better!

This should not be rated as a four-star hotel, a three-star is more appropriate. I paid more per night at this hotel than what i paid at the Grand Hyatt five-star hotel and the difference between the two are huge. This hotel is in need of updates and it shows in so many ways. I've never been in a hotel here in Japan where the air conditioning unit goes one way (in winter, where the heater is turned on, you cannot set the a/c to cooling if your room gets too hot. All you can do is turn off the a/c unit and wait for the room to cool off). No gym. You'd have to go somewhere else to work out. The lobby just looks sad. I really don't know how they can charge this much for this quality. You're better off going to the Granvia next door.

The staff is so friendly and welcoming! They speak excellent English and are very helpful and engaged! I loved walking through the lobby because the staff made you feel just that welcomed.

The room was very clean, had an excellent view (high floor) and such cozy and comfy bedding that invited you to stay and sleep. Especially when you come from very thin towels in other hotels, the super plush ones Crowne Plaza offers are a dream. I didn’t want to get out of them. There even was a separate hand towel, something I had encountered in no other hotel.

The window in the indoor bathroom is a nice way to combat its usually stuffy feeling.

The room is also very quiet! No need to fear the closeness to the train station. That is only a boon since you don’t have to go far to reach your hotel after you arrive. Everything is also in walking distance, or immediately connected to the streetcar.

The breakfast had a diverse and delicious selection, with an egg station where live cooks prepare your eggs to your liking. I especially appreciated the healthy options of which there weren’t few.

Absolutely would and will book again and can recommend!

This hotel was in a great location right next to the train station which allowed us to easily take day trips to other locales. The hotel staff were super nice and helpful and the beds were comfortable.
The only thing I would recommend is to have another chair or stool in the double rooms. There is one desk chair, but when there are two people staying in the room it makes it a bit awkward.
We would definitely stay here again! Thank you, wonderful staff.

It’s directly connected to Okayama Station which makes it super convenient. There’s a convenient store right next door, and the entry point to the train station has a shopping mall with shops like GU. Room was spacious and comfy, and you could order/choose the kind of pillow you like based on hardness. Breakfast was at the top floor which offers great views but selection was fairly limited, though they did have a live egg station which was appreciated. All in all, would definitely stay again when I’m in Okayama

Excellent hotel that is directly connected to Okayama station, which itself has many useful train connections to other major cities. Many dining options within the station or in the immediate vicinity of the station. Hotel staff were helpful and welcoming and the room came with a fantastic view too! The only drawback was the lack of air circulation within the room, which is probably due to the central control of the room heating that could not be adjusted by guests. The room ended up being too warm at times - appreciate the heating given that it is winter, but it is done too much and this made it difficult to rest comfortably in the room. Will consider staying here again nonetheless!
