Art Hotel Ishigakijima

This hotel has a nice big public bath. And thby have a free live show of local singers who sings local musics. It was fun! Must see! The breakfast is all-you-can-eat style and you can try local foods too.

We stayed four nights in this hotel in two adjoining rooms with a connecting door, a really convenient feature. Although the rooms are a bit dated, they are spacious and comfortable. The only downside is that the duvets do not have fully enclosed covers.||Breakfast is very good and offers a wide selection of food. It was quite crowded and a bit chaotic on the first two days, as it was a long weekend in Japan, but the staff managed the situation well. ||The hot baths are clean and relaxing, with a well-organised changing room. The swimming pools, which include a small water slide, are fun for the kids.||The hotel is located a little outside the busiest area of the city but within easy walking distance from both the shops and the remote island pier. There are also a number of excellent restaurants on the road outside the hotel. We tried a dumpling place and an izakaya, both of which were exceptional. ||What impressed us the most about this hotel was the help we received from the General Manager on our last day. We were expecting an important document to arrive by courier, but unfortunately, it had not arrived by the time we checked out. The General Manager was very kind and offered to personally deliver the document to our next hotel. In the end, we received the document once we arrived at our next hotel. It was a truly thoughtful gesture and we were very grateful for it.||Other highlights: folk song performance in the evening, you receive vouchers if you opt for eco cleaning

Staying at Art hotel is one the best decision I made for my 6-day trip in Ishigaki. They not only have wonderful room facilities and spa. The cafe on the ground door is such a great indulgent after exploring the island. Art hotel also offers e-scooter for easy transportation option to go to the high street which is very useful and interesting. Love art hotel and will recommend them to whoever going to travel in Ishigaki

The hotel is in good location and very accessible to city area. The staffs are friendly and it is to great pleasure with the tour centre inside inside the hotel which you can easily book a lot of outdoor activities without worrying all the transportation arrangements.The availability with massage shops, souvenir shop, spa and sauna, swimming pool, bar and restaurants are very comprehensive and you can just enjoyed all kinds of amenities by staying in this one single hotel.There are some restaurants nearby the hotel as well which also serve as a very good alternative for dining options.

Asked the male concierge if they could organise a birthday cake since we spent my boyfriend's birthday at the hotel and he told me to order a cake from the cafe nearby. Not helpful. Shocked. Other than that the rooms were decent and they have a good programme where you can skip the full housekeeping in exchange for credits to use at the hotel. The other concierge staff members were very friendly and helpful with reservations

Good location, near to Ishigaki ferry terminal where vendors pick up and drop off participants for water activities, however parking spaces in the main carpark are always full and the second carpark is quite a distance away. The pool and suntanning deck were nice but pool was filled with kids and their parents and you can't do any lap swimming. Pool also opens late from 0930hrs so no early morning swim. Long queue to enter restaurant for buffet breakfast every morning. Love the initiative of getting 1000 yen voucher if you skip housekeeping.

Super nice surprise- we booked this without much information, and it’s a great hotel and - a rare occasion- our room for three actually has three real beds not just an additional sofa-bed, superb! Very helpful staff, a your desk, a top cafe (we love cakes!) and two good restaurants with fair prices (the third was closed when we were there) makes this a solid five. Makes me even accept the absence of the free water bottles in the room, something I became used to during the trip, but definitely a bearable sacrifice

Great surprise - a City Hotel which isn’t quite in the city, but you can walk there in 20 min or take a taxi for 5 dollars (500 Yen). Also, a shuttle bus takes you several times a day to a very nice beach partner hotel. I’d say 4-star level (think “Crowne Plaza” if you know the IHG chain); my real happiness started when we found three real beds in our triple room, not just two beds and a sofa-bed as it is way too often other places. Breakfast is ok, you probably like it best if you like traditional Japanese breakfast (there are other things, too).
