Business Hotel Hane Ise Inter — Hotel in Ise

One of the worst hotels I've ever stayed at. Firstly, the room we stayed in didn't look the same as in the photos when booking. The lighting was really gloomy, furniture was old (not like the refurbished ones in the photos), and everything was green from the walls and roof to the ceiling, even the shampoos, which made us feel creeped out. We also felt uncomfortable by the fact that the hotel is next to a graveyard. Inside our room, we heard strange noises every now and then, and one time the radio turned on all of a sudden by itself even though we were on the other side of the room, which was very scary. Definitely don't stay here if you want to have a comfortable stay, or if you are travelling with your partner or family. Also, the onsen / bath space is only for men, however we didn't know this when booking. About the location, it was OK as it's near the train station, but not the most convenient as trains go only two times an hour. There is also a bus that goes to Ise Jingu once an hour. If you want to buy food, there is a convenience store approximately 10min walk away, and that's about it. It's basically countryside.

Lastly, to mention something good about the hotel, the service staff for breakfast was lively and friendly which we liked a lot, and the food was delicious. We also felt grateful that the front staff delivered/carried our luggage to our room for us when we came to bring our luggage early before check-in.

However, despite the good sides, we couldn't help but to feel creeped out by this hotel, so we actually checked out from the hotel one day early and went to another hotel because we wanted to feel more comfortable and didn't want any bad luck on us.

Improvement suggestions for the hotel; -Correct pictures of the rooms when booking -More lights in the rooms: especially at the entrance, and next to the bed (and preferably with more warm/yellow bulbs rather than gloomy white ones) -Change of exterior in the green rooms (so that not everything is green) -Getting rid of the old radios -More energetic/enthusiastic welcome greetings from...

Located right off the Ise Interchange, what used to be called Business Hotel Hane Ise Inter is now, due to a branded consolidation, called Hotel Area One Ise Inter.||The target audience is migrating blue-collar workers. The linemen, the road workers, and the migrating construction workers who need a convenient place to crash for the night. Therefore, the parking lot is filled with work trucks and there is a public bath for men ONLY. ||The doors are the old-fashioned key type. There is very little soundproofing, so if you plan to make noise in your room, expect everyone to hear clearly. The rooms are clean, the washrooms are the cramped modular type. Nothing special with the amenities. ||There are no convenience stores within walking distance so the lobby has many of the things you would buy at a convenience store except with an inflated cost. ||The breakfast is very Japanese. They highlight foodstuffs that are grown in Mie or food that comes in a can. Pick and choose. You should find enough that are filling enough. I can't complain. ||If you were to make a Venn Diagram, this place would be somewhere in the center where the circles meet. Price vs convenience vs quality. Nothing is exceedingly done well, nothing is fantastic but nothing to complain...

It is not a fancy hotel but with a good value in a small town away from busy Ise city, especially when it is difficult to book an accommodation in Ise city. The hotel is closed to the railway stop but took a while to find it as there is no sign nearby. The room was surprisingly bright and quiet although it is closed to the roads. I especially like their little pot and the heating device which does not take much space and convenient to use. ||||The staff is very friendly and honest. The breakfast is very simple but convenient. I like the coffee they have. However, the seats are limited. So when there are many people, the staff would kindly ask people not to stay too long in the dining hall. ||||The train takes about 30 mins to one hour for either direction. It is important to be there early to catch the train. The train fare can be paid on the train in the first cabin which has a machine to change notes (limited to 1000 yen) to coins. ||||Note that checking in time is 3pm. So if arriving early, there is a small coffee shop with karaoke to spend time listening to people singing. Their coffee comes with dessert. Very interesting and nice, especially in a...
