My second stay at this hotel, but first time for this room type.
Room area is ok for 4 adults but i do not recommended to have 4adults stay in this room as the bed size is too small, even for 2 asian adult ladies per 1 bed.
Bathroom, toiltet, and sink are seperated, which is very convenient for everyone to do their own business at same time.
Artificial hot spring bath is located in the main building, which is not connected to the Annex building. So you gotta walk outside to the main building, i am ok with this but my mom is not lol.
Location is prime, near Iseshi station.
Room was spacious enough for 3 adults (the room is meant for 4 adults). Bathroom is surprisingly spacious and the toilet is separated. Water pressure is good too. It's more like a mini studio apartment, there's a mini bar, a kitchen sink and microwave as well. There's a laundry area in the hotel but we didn't check that out. Parking space is available for those that are driving.
Location wise, it's quiet and about 10 mins walk from Iseshi station. There's a Lawson convenience store just 2 mins walk away.
To take note:
1. The bedsheets had some stain. It's probably washed but the stain was still there.
2. The window behind the bed has no curtain and the sun rises pretty early. So it's super bright, however they do provide eye mask for you.
3. There's no luggage storage or luggage delivery services available.
4. No breakfast option and the town has limited options.
All in all, was a good stay. Would recommend.
The stay was very pleasant. I used Tsu as a hub to visit both Ise Shingu and Nachi given that there are rapid and limited express trains running from Tsu. The hotel is situated directly next to Tsu station with various restaurants situated near it. There is a shopping strip located about a 13 minute walk from Tsu station with Uniqlo and a large supermarket next to it.
As for the room, the beds were comfortable and spacious. Various amenities such as toothbrush and shavers were provided. There is also a free coffee machine located next to the check in desk.
I will highly recommend those who plan to visit Mie prefecture to stay here!
This hotel is super close to the train station and the outer shrine's pilgrimage route, making it really convenient for getting around.
We used the self check-in, but ended up with two rooms on different floors. After a quick chat with the front desk, who were very helpful, they managed to get us on the same floor.
There was a weird smell in the room; I initially thought I'd mistakenly walked into a smoking room. It got a bit better after I turned on the air purifier.
Breakfast was just okay – a bento box per person, plus a self-serve selection of bread, drinks, and miso soup.
Overall, I'd say it's pretty decent for its star rating and price.
The location was great. The interior was very clean and stylish. The bathroom tiles were also beautiful. The hot springs were comfortable and had good water flow, with bubble baths, standing baths, and baths you can take while lying down. The open-air bath was also great and I was able to relax. They had midnight noodles, which were perfect for a light snack. Overall, it was a comfortable stay. I'd like to try the food next time.
The hotel is easily reachable by car, but if you are using the train, it’s 30/40min by walk or you should jump on a bus. Nearby there are konbinis and a supermarket, which is super useful if you want to eat at the hotel and take advantage of the microwave (there are not a lot of restaurants nearby). The hotel is clean and comfortable—if you want, you can also book a private bath room for free, which is great.
On top of the usual amenities, you can also find different options for shampoo and conditioner (ex. one for damaged hair, etc..)
Very closed to Kintetsu train station and good access to JR station.. Room is clean but need redecorating. Rceptioni staffs are very helpful. Bonus to have onsen spa on site.
Super market in front of the hotel and a drug store is 1 min walk. Good access to Ise Shrine.
We stayed here to visit Meoto Iwa (Wedded Rocks) and Mikimoto Pearl Island. We took a bus from Naiku (Inner Shrine) and got off at Futami Sogo Shisho-mae (Futami General Branch Office). It was an easy walk of just a few minutes to the hotel via Family Mart.
We also appreciated being able to use the private baths from 3:00 PM without a reservation. We opted for breakfast, and you could choose between Japanese and Western style. Not only was it delicious, but the view from the 10th floor was also fantastic, making for a very pleasant morning.
Meoto Iwa was less than a 10-minute walk away. Mikimoto Pearl Island was less than a 20-minute bus ride from the east entrance of Meoto Iwa (though be sure to check the bus schedule as they are infrequent). I'd love to see Meoto Iwa at sunrise (or sunset) and also visit Toba Aquarium, so I'd definitely like to stay here again then.
Outdoor bath was lovely and the only real redeeming feature of this hotel. It was a 20 minute walk from Iseshi station and felt like in the middle of nowhere. There were no restaurants or eateries open for dinner on a Wednesday evening so I had to buy food from Family Mart. Rooms are clean but quite dated. I paused for breakfast in advance and it was sub-par.
Very Good

GGuest UserThis onsen resort offers incredible value for money. The booking page didn't mention it all, but besides the buffet breakfast and dinner, each guest also receives a pass for unlimited re-entry to Nagashima Spaland theme park during their stay (rides require separate tickets). It also includes admission to Nabana no Sato for their illumination show (highly recommended, and the round-trip bus is free, but requires advance booking), and unlimited access to Nagashima Onsen (about a dozen large baths, open 5-8 AM and 10 AM-11 PM). On top of all that, there's the Mitsui Outlet Park, which is great for shopping. One night simply isn't enough; I highly recommend staying for two days.
GGuest UserStayed at Suzuka Circuit Hotel during last weekend—pure racer’s dream! Rooms overlook the iconic track, with comfy beds and modern amenities. Breakfast buffet fueled us for the day, and the on-site spa melted away the roar’s afterglow. Staff were speedy and friendly, like a well-tuned pit crew. Minor nit: WiFi lagged during peak hours. Overall, 4.5/5—rev up for an unforgettable motorsport escape!
KKennyDuring my recent stay at Hotel R9 at Yard Tsu, I had a mixed experience, resulting in an overall rating of 3 out of 5. While the hotel was generally acceptable, there were some notable drawbacks.
One major issue I encountered was the cleanliness of the rooms. I was disappointed to find a significant number of insects on the walls, which was quite unpleasant and off-putting. As a result, I had to deduct points and give it a rating of 3 out of 5 for cleanliness.
Additionally, compared to my previous stay at another Hotel R9 location, the price at Yard Tsu was slightly higher. However, it was still within an acceptable range considering the overall quality of the hotel.
Despite the drawbacks, I must mention that the hotel's staff were courteous and attentive, providing decent service throughout my stay.
In conclusion, while Hotel R9 at Yard Tsu has some room for improvement in terms of cleanliness, its reasonable price and satisfactory service make it an acceptable choice for a short stay. However, I would recommend management to address the cleanliness issue to ensure a more pleasant experience for guests.
GGuest UserWe were quite happy with the hotel, which was fairly new and service staff were very helpful. While preparing my toast, a staff came back again to offer a tray. The common area was fairly adequate with a lot of seating, access to a microwave, small stove and fridge. As an added bonus, there is aluminium foil and plastic wrap available.
Room size was decent, and the design of the layout was good.
The hotel seems to be in the middle of nowhere, and it was noticed staff were extra careful to explain with the restaurants nearby.

GGuest UserThe outdoor unit of the air conditioner was extremely noisy...unfortunately, my stay was not satisfactory.
I consulted with the staff, but because the outdoor unit is located next to the bed (by the pillow), the noise from the outdoor unit continues when it's turned on. Also, although my room was on the 8th floor, I could hear people talking in the parking lot. Is this due to the location of the outdoor unit? Perhaps there's a small gap? In other hotels, you shouldn't be able to hear conversations from the parking lot from an 8th-floor room.
When I turned off the power because the noise from the outdoor unit was bothersome, the room temperature dropped very quickly...
The staff responded quickly and changed my room from the 9th floor to the 8th floor, but unfortunately, both the 9th and 8th floors were plagued by the noise from the outdoor unit and the cold.
CCOCOSK8I stayed without meals to watch sports. It's about 15 minutes walk from Ueno City Station, but it was very helpful because the rental car was nearby. There were plenty of restaurants such as Sukiya and Komeda Coffee in the neighborhood, which was more convenient than in front of the station. The room is an old building, but it was nice to be clean and clean.

ららむあんこUpon arrival, they played a welcome drum. The room was nicely cleaned and we had a pleasant stay. There was a wide variety of dishes at dinner, more than we could eat, but since it was in our room, we were able to enjoy it at our leisure. The bath was lovely with a tatami floor.
I was told that toothbrushes were charged, but this was not listed in the hotel details, so it would be nice if this was stated. It would also be helpful if amenities were placed so that only those who wanted them could choose them.
There were two sets of towels and bath towels in the room, which were great to be able to use for bathing twice a day, at night and in the morning.
The staff also gave us detailed explanations.
GGuest UserThe room is spacious, with a separate tatami room for dining. The room has sea view. There are microwave, refrigerator, hair dryer and kettle in the room. However, the way to the hotel is up a steep hill. The coffee maker machine is at the front desk. Breakfast is the O-bento
