"The JR Clement Inn Kochi turned out to be a great base to explore southern and eastern Shikoku. Centrally located in Kochi, it was easy to get to from the airport and the parking garage was very convenient for a rental car. The JR Kochi station was right across the street and with a major tram station there it was easy to hop on Kochi's historic trams as well. Several convenience stores were nearby also when needed.
Staff were very helpful and polite, as the norm in Japan. The room was typical urban Japan business hotel size (i.e. small) but well-equipped, clean, and more than comfortable for passing out after a long day sightseeing. Don't expect a great view though since the window was tiny and all you could see were nearby buildings - again, typical urban Japan hotel. The included breakfast was excellent with a choice of set meals to choose from including a delicious fried mackerel set and the local seared bonito specialty. It was a little inconvenient to have to choose a timeslot the night before but at least it must help reduce crowding.
In summary, a typically efficient and convenient Japanese hotel. Nothing fancy but still excellent."
