I would like to recommend a place to stay near the Shimanami Kaido to a friend coming to Japan from the Netherlands.

Question

My friend from the Netherlands is coming to Japan for the first time. He will be staying for about 2 weeks and said, "I want to go cycling on the Shimanami Kaido!" Are there any hot spring inns around the Shimanami Kaido that are convenient for cycling?

Imabari Kokusai Hotel has good access to the Shimanami Kaido and is very convenient for enjoying cycling. It is also a spot where you can drop off rental bicycles in Imabari City, so you can return to the hotel by bicycle after a tiring cycling trip. You can relax and soothe the fatigue of your cycling trip in the open-air bath using natural hot springs. For meals, you can choose from a variety of Japanese, Western and Chinese restaurants depending on the occasion. We also recommend the night view of the Seto Inland Sea from the observation lounge on the 23rd floor.

This inn is located in Kono Onsen, Hiroshima Prefecture. It is recommended as a place to stay as the starting or finishing point of the Shimanami Kaido cycling tour. After a tiring day of cycling, the radon hot spring water, which is said to cure all diseases, will soothe your body. There is also a coin laundry and sauna, which are convenient for long stays. The breakfast is a Japanese set menu, which tastes like Japanese home cooking.
