Migiwatei Ochikochi
Migiwatei Ochikochi

Its entrance is the surviving building of an Edo-period inn.

Migiwatei Ochikochi faces the Seto Inland Sea at Tomonoura, a historic tide-waiting port town in Fukuyama, Hiroshima. Every room has an open-air hot-spring bath on its wooden seaside deck, with room types from 39 m² Standard Twins to Upper Suites of 77.3-95.0 m² including the deck. Dinner centres on Seto Inland Sea seafood, with sea-bream kamameshi as the house speciality, served in the dining room Sou, designed so every seat has a sea view; Upper Suite guests dine in their room. Children of elementary-school age and younger are not accepted.
