Miyajima Grand Hotel Arimoto
Miyajima, Japan

Arimoto offers a wide range of Japanese and Western rooms close to Itsukushima Shrine. The Royal Suites add sea views, a private sauna and a semi-open bath, while traditional sukiya rooms emphasise timber craftsmanship and Mount Misen's wooded slopes. Regional seafood shapes the dining, and communal bathing provides another reason to return before dinner. It works particularly well when different generations want to stay together but have different preferences for beds, space and bathing.
