This is an impressive looking oldere hotel in Anjo right next to the Mikawa Anjo Shinkansen station so it is extremely convenient as an affordable base to get to Nagoya, Kyoto, Osaka, etc. easily. The interior reminds one of perhaps a stately London hotel and the rooms are quite a bit larger than the norm in Japan. Our room had a queen size bed plus a sitting area with sofa, a total of 4 arm chairs, and a glass coffee table, definately welcome after some of the compact rooms of the "business hotels". The bathrooms are beautiful with large, long bathtubs and double sinks set in marble. Although spacious and comfortable and tastefully appointed, all the rooms (we stayed in 3 different rooms due to separate bookings) could use a change of carpeting, reupholstering or replacing the sofas, and replacement of some of the other textile based furnishings, like bed skirts, drapes and so on. The beds were very comfortable with good snow white linens and the towels were plush and snow white. There is no restaurant on site and there are weddings on the weekends and other events at the adjoining banquet hall. The staff is very courteous and kind and we felt like we were in somwhat of a boutique hotel. There is an "onsen", public bath but we did not use it but will make a point of it when we return to this charming hotel. There are some restaurants inside the very quiet, calm shinkansen station and a variety of other eateries within reasonable walking distance or taxi ride.
