Shima, Mie Prefecture hotel rooms at the Independent

"Very pleasant stay. Food options clearly geared toward the domestic traveler but, if you're planning to stay here to visit Spain Village or Ise Shrine, it's perfectly fine."

"the little bit of sea view from the room is a nice surprise."

"This property is lovely! It is pretty remote, but there is an hourly shuttle bus to and from Kashikojima train station if you want to do anything off property. The food is pretty pricey and there is a cost for most activities. The onsen is beautiful. All in all I would recommend staying here. "

"Hot spring type bathroom on the 5th floor is good. Ocean view from room is great. We enjoyed dinner at a Izakara style restaurant which is 10 minites walki distance from the facility."

"Our stay was very special. The owner and manager were welcoming and helpful for every need and question we had. The hotel is spacious and stylish. The grounds are beautiful, surrounded by lush greenery and quiet, with birdsong out our window in the morning. "
