Fairfield by Marriott Okayama Hiruzen Highland

I can't figure out why this hotel is even here - it's (almost) everything you would expect from a modern western hotel, just in the middle of nowhere. Obviously very recently built, inexplicably large for what seems like a pretty out of the way place. The facilities are good, the fittings and room design are very contemporary. I just have no idea who stays here or who thought such a hotel was necessary in Hiruzen.... Also, the room was ridiculously cheap, probably the cheapest accommodation of our whole trip, but still some of the nicest. Anyway, our room was spacious and comfortable. We managed to do some washing in the coin laundry, and there's a free coffee machine in the lounge which was welcome come breakfast time. Speaking of breakfast, the one thing this hotel doesn't really have is meals. You can buy simple stuff like instant noodles during the day, but otherwise you have to sort your own meals out. Thankfully, the staff have a printed list of local eateries and provided good recommendations. There's also a tsuruya across the road if you are feeling lazy. 7-11 is about 2 mins drive away.

Very neat hotel, amazing staff, rooms, and everything. It's clearly comunited about food which is good too.

There is a dining area, kitchen facility (oven, microwave) and complementary coffee in the lobby. The room is spacious and the pillows were amazingly comfortable.

The common areas and rooms are very spacious and clean. The staff are also courteous and helpful’ we had a great stay at this property!

Everything, I truly enjoyed my stay here.
