It was very nice that the hotel had free parking on-site. This is important as most tourists rent a car when they visit Ishigaki. The location is also great. Just a 10 minute walk from the center (even less depending on where you are heading to in the center). I should note here that during the night, when one comes back from the city center, the street in the last block is a bit dark and not well lit, but overall I did not feel insecure. Furthermore, I should add that the breakfast was very decent and with good quality coffee too. And last but not least, they do provide beach towels, which was very convenient, when you go to a beach most of your days there!

I should say that I would not rate it as a 4-star hotel. You had to pick up your towels and other accessories from the ground floor every day. One day I also asked for a cup of coffee in the afternoon and they told me they do not provide such services. I would not expect that from a 4-star hotel.

Fantastic comfortable stay and very nice breakfast with lots of local okinawan dishes. Friendly staff even if its difficult to speak English, they are very helpful and kind. We liked the island Ishigaki a lot so we extended our stay for 2 more days and wish we could stay longer :). Location was also easy to walk to the harbour, central bus station and city center. Would come back again!

The breakfast is until 9.30 and sometimes we had to get up earlier to get breakfast, but was worth it :)!

Fantastic comfortable stay with great breakfast, it was so nice on the island, we extended our stay! Also near harbour port, shopping center en central busstation. Also very quiet in the evening for a good night sleep, with many handy facilities as bike rental, laundry machines, free water refill, toiletries, etc. Friendly and helpful reception who try to help you in English.

Location is very good, couple of minutes work to bus terminal and ferry port. Lots of restaurants are within walking distance too. Staffs are friendly, I asked the front desk staff to help book the tour for Taketomi island water buffalo and quickly it's done in less than 5 minutes. Breakfast is good with all local flavor. Blue Seal ice cream is also provided!!!

Nothing really

Spacious and clean room, breakfast was very generous (mainly with Japanese traditional foods).

Location was not bad but not that good either. A few minutes walk from the center where the most of the restaurants are.

The Location is walking distance to both the ferry terminal and the food/shops downtown. The rooms were very spacious and clean.

The parking was always packed, so we had to walk in the rain from blocks over.

Our first hotel in Japan and we loved it! I have already recommended Vessel to friends! Thank you for a wonderful stay.

I stayed for 4nights, Breakfast are fantastic every day. I could enjoy meals, especially their local ones.
