Hotel Water Gate Hamamatsu (Adult Only)

Great value for money and the Jacuzzi

Once you close the door, you can’t open it anymore

Traveled Japan for a month. This was by far the most spacious and luxurious room we stayed in. The crazy thing is that it was also the cheapest not counting taxi fares. Long walk to nearest bus stop. An important thing to know is that this hotel does not allow guests to come and go. It is possible to check in and out without ever seeing a staff member if you know Japanese. Of course we don't so we rang the bell. They don't ask for any paperwork. The room was huge with a huge TV and king size bed and giant bathroom with a tub big enough for two or three and water jets all around. We loved it. We were suppose to call to order breakfast that is delivered through a privacy hatch by the door, but we couldn't so the staff let us come down and point out the pictures of what we wanted and what time. This type of love hotel would be great if you plan your check in time after you finish with local site seeing and eating and then just stay in the room until morning check out.

Being locked in the room and having to call down to get the door opened bothered me. I understand now (privacy of other guests that don't want to be seen), but at the time I didn't. We wanted to be able to go out and walk on the beach across the street, but had to stay inside until check out time.
