Shimanami Kaido Cycling Road hotel rooms a the Independent

"Great for starting Shimanami Kaido cycle. Even had bike racks in the foyer."

"Really nice apartment in Onomichi. We stayed as a group of 4 and fit comfortably. It's close to the main station and town centre and only a quick bus ride from Shin Onomichi if you are catching the Shinkansen. Hosts were easy to communicate with and responded quickly. Air con in all rooms was very welcomed in the summer heat. There is no lift though and a slightly narrower staircase so if you are bringing larger luggage it's a little trickier to get to the 3rd floor! Would absolutely recommend staying here and hope we can again in the future."

"Unexpected large size room in Japan. Very impressive!!"

"Room is clean and new. Love the view with Shinkanen and part of the castle. Friendly and helpful staff. Close the station. The only downside is the relatively old design of the lobby"

"Hotel with extraordinary view on the city and landscape. Spacious room, great coffeebar, excellent food. Very helpful, friendly staff. "

"My favorite in Ehime"

"Right next to Giant brand bike store and rental station for Shimanami- Kaido and bagage transport with Sagawa."

"Only stayed for one night, but it was very comfortable and restful. Didn't try the the breakfast but there were plenty of options in the station nearby."

"Friendly staff, tasty breakfast, unique modern style, clean bedroom and a comfortable bed. We couldn't ask for more for! We had a great night's rest before cycling the shiminami kaido, and the starting point is walking distance from lemonsea. Look forward to coming back!"
