The hotel service was good. The room was clean and the breakfast buffet was okay (just okay). I really liked the availability of bicycle rentals. My only real complaints (but impacted my comfort significantly) was absence of a lockbox in my room and the super uncomfortable pillow. On my double wide size bed was a single tiny pillow that was more like a small sandbag than a pillow. It was too hard and small making it very difficult to sleep with. I didn’t sleep well because of it. Do yourself a big favor; bring your own pillow to this hotel!

You can borrow a beach towel, and then just drop it in a bin in the lobby (very helpful for beach trips). Good wifi. Complimentary ice pops and juice available in the lobby.

We had friendly service at the front desk who invited us to have a refreshing popsicle as we came in and lemonade. We were so pleased with breakfast that offered many fruits and vegetables and Japanese dishes besides the normal egg and cereal hotel breakfasts. We also enjoyed a bike ride (on their free bikes) around the pier and over the bridge before checking out. It was a pleasant ending to a wonderful few days in Ishigaki!

A very popular hotel with lots of guests.

When I chose this hotel online, I knew that its location was rather remote from public transport. I then decided to rent a car to enjoy the free parking offer. On arrival, I realized that the complimentary parking lots were loosely located on various nearby streets. Being a popular hotel in the area, It was rather difficult to find a parking spot especially at night.

Good Location and Helpful staff

The hotel is located within 5 to 10 minute walk to the Ferry Station. Took the public bus from the airport to the Ferry Station- Very low cost and reliable as very 15 to 20 minutes. At Ferry station, decided to take a taxi to the hotel as did not have a map. Cost about USD 5 and once I found the hotel , then I walked back and forth to the Ferry station each day. Breakfast was very delicious with many selection for Japanese taste and healthy. Staff very friendly and provided maps to local restaurants. While the area is dark at night on the streets, felts safe but then, am a guy. At Ferry station, lots of tour options to outer island. Will rebook hotel again in future.

A family Style Hotel

Vessel Hotel is a popular place. Even in December, the place is almost full. Japanese Families took up at least half of the rooms. Hence if you do not like lots of children around, tough luck to you.
The room are large for Japan standard, The hotel is clean bright, service is good. And the included breakfast is a big plus. It is within walking distance to the city centre and the ferry terminal, and there are free car parking.
Ishigaki is sunny and warm in December, the sea breeze is lovely and it is truly an enjoyable time to visit. If you want to see the sights, hiring a car will be an excellent idea.

When we put the signage of \"Do not disturb\" at the door, the hotel staff put a basket with all the necessities (e.g. towels, pyjamas, etc) outside our room. We felt so warm with their service and must stay with this hotel again when we visited Ishigaki.

A very good hotel not too far from the ferry, terminal.
From the bathroom you can tell that the building is a bit older, but they have maintained and renovated it really well. Loved the spacious room, as I was travelling with two suitcases.
I recommended booking the hotel with breakfast, as it has a good variety of dishes and so far has been my favourite one during my travels.
Not all the staff speak English, but they make a real effort to assist you.
One of the things that I was positively surprised about, is the amount of items you can borrow and that they make it visible for their guests. So far this is the only hotel I have seen this at. It's good to know, that I'm able to borrow plates and cutlery or even an umbrella.
In terms of sustainability I like that guests staying longer than 2 nights can get towels from a cabinet on the ground floor and decide, if they really need a replacement after just one use. There are even special beach towels that guests can use for the day.
If I get another chance to visit Ishigaki I will definitely book here again.
