水戸PARCO
--- The property is not yet rated
水戸PARCO is a compact, locally managed love hotel in Mito, positioned within the Kantō region and serving visitors to central Ibaraki. The property offers a practical mix of private parking and connective amenities, and the building operates roughly 36 rooms under a specialist management group since September 2022. Its scale and layout skew toward privacy and short-stay flexibility, making it a pragmatic option for travellers seeking discreet overnight or rest options outside the immediate station area and catering to both overnight stays and daytime rest breaks.
Guest rooms are equipped for independent comfort with air conditioning, complimentary Wi‑Fi, a refrigerator, microwave and an electric kettle; bathrooms feature a bathtub or shower, bidet toilet fittings and basic toiletries. The hotel maintains on-site services including room service and a small karaoke facility, and staff assist with local directions and arrangements. Linen and towels are supplied, slippers are provided, and many rooms include amenities intended for short-break convenience rather than extended-stay facilities. Amenities and layout emphasise privacy and quick in-room refreshment.
Practicalities include arrival generally between 15:00 and 23:30 and departure by 13:00; the property accepts cash payments and does not accommodate pets. It stands a short drive from major local attractions such as Kairaku-en and is about 25 km from the region’s primary airport, which makes it accessible for road-based arrivals. For guests who prioritise privacy, free on-site parking and flexible rest options, this love hotel in Ibaraki presents a straightforward, service-focused base for exploring Mito and its surroundings. A small staffed reception simplifies arrival procedures.

Comfortable for overnight stays
Several reviewers said they slept well and enjoyed the room comfort and facilities (private parking, large rooms, some with covered parking), making it a pleasant option for short stays.
Negative Reviews
Remote location and limited local services
A common concern is the hotel's location: it is somewhat remote with few nearby restaurants or shops and limited public‑transport access; many guests recommended arriving by car or taxi.
Not ideal for families/children
Because the property operates as a love hotel, some reviewers noted it may be less suitable for families with young children and that certain aspects (adult‑oriented items) can feel out of place for family stays.
Operational quirks of the love‑hotel model
Some guests experienced features tied to the hotel's format—such as daily access card procedures, in‑room adult items, and occasional locked inner doors—which can be unexpected for longer stays or first‑time visitors.
Limited payment options
A few reviewers reported the hotel accepts cash only, which can be inconvenient for guests preferring card payments.
Occasional staff availability and minor room issues
A small number of guests reported issues like no staff available at times (morning), air conditioning that didn’t cool strongly enough, older decor, small dustbins or mattresses that were only moderately comfortable.
