"A former quayside warehouse transformed in 2014 into a lively creative lifestyle complex that houses a café, bar, restaurant, bakery, shops and the cycling-focused Hotel Cycle. The adaptive-reuse project preserves the 70-year-old industrial shell—exposed timber beams, ducts and pipes—while inserting a contemporary minimalist interior, a design approach that has earned architectural acclaim. The 28-room accommodation is purpose-built for cyclists with wall mounts, maintenance areas and a bike shop, allowing guests to roll in from the boardwalk and check in without leaving their saddles. Located a short walk from JR Onomichi Station, the development attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors annually and deliberately cultivates cycling culture tied to the nearby Shimanami Kaido route." - Tom Miyagawa Coulton
