Fodor's Expert Review Mawaki Po-re Po-re
19--110 Mawaki, Hosu-gun, Ishikawa-ken, 927-0562, Japan
Built into a hillock, this little hotel has great views of the sea and surrounding hills; breakfast and dinner are included in the rates; and the staff are kind. The Western-style rooms are done in blue and lilac; the much nicer Japanese-style rooms have shoji screens and are slightly larger and brighter but cost more. The hotel is connected to the mineral bath complex at Mawaki and can also organize tours of a local sake brewery.
PROS
- great views
- quiet atmosphere
- close to mineral baths
CONS
- somewhat out of the way
- not much English spoken
- Western-style rooms not as smart as the Japanese rooms
