While I didn't stay at the hotel, I had a wonderful dining experience at the restaurant on the 10th floor with stunning views during a thunderstorm. The food was delicious, particularly the perfectly cooked scallops and steak. However, the hotel itself feels a bit dated and could use some renovations, especially in the room accommodations.

The hotel has a somewhat remote location that makes it challenging to find nearby amenities. While the rooms were clean, they felt dated and could use some renovations. However, I thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast options and appreciated the great dining experience at the on-site restaurants, particularly the tepanyaki. Overall, it's decent value for money, but the out-of-the-way location might be a downside for some travelers.

The rooms, while clean, could definitely use some renovations, but breakfast options were decent.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. While the rooms felt a bit dated, there were some standout dining options that I enjoyed a lot. The tepanyaki restaurant was fantastic, and the view from the bar was lovely. However, the Italian restaurant for breakfast was just average. Overall, it’s a decent place with good dining but needs some updates in the room department.

I had a nice dining experience at this hotel, which features a teppanyaki restaurant with chefs cooking right in front of you. The rooms, while acceptable, feel a bit dated and could use some updates. The hotel is the best option in Utsunomiya but lacks the luxury and modernity you might find in larger cities. Overall, it’s decent for a short stay, especially considering dinner options, but not ideal for a longer visit.
