GRAND CHARIOT Hokutoshichisei 135°

This resort is located at the top of the mountain inside the Awajishima Anime Park. If you are visiting the Park, it is very convenient to stay here. The hotel's pick up service is extraordinary. We took the JR express bus from Osaka Station. Got off at the bottom of the mountain, 1 floor below the huge souvenir shop. It is a bit tricky to find the hotel pick up point -- An Information Stand by the road side. Once we got on the van, the hotel staff (a Thai lady) really went out of her way to help us! She first dropped us to the park for lunch. Then dropped off the luggages back to the hotel and came back to pass us a mobile phone (we did not have a local mobile and roaming is very expensive) so that we could call her to pick us up after we finished visiting the Park in the evening! Everything is perfect, from pick up, check in, dinner, room cleaniness, and breakfast. The night view from our patio was stunning!! We could see so many stars and the beautiful bridge!

The views were stunning, the rooms spacious and well-appointed, the service excellent. Every member of staff was courteous and friendly and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The meals were delicious and beautifully plated. Incredible value for money. The room price included admission to the Godzilla zip line in the theme park adjacent to the resort, an unexpected and delightful surprise!

The staff was incredible! The room was beautiful and so clean. It is the perfect getaway spot for a few days. Definitely recommend to go!

the staff is pretty nice, and the view over the city is fabulous! We also enjoyed a lot of the meal!

Just about everything!
