Ciao-LoveHotel
6,5/10 Good - Based on 58 reviews
Ciao-LoveHotel is a compact love hotel in Miyazaki Prefecture offering a practical, private-stay option close to the city. The property has around 25 rooms designed for short-stay and overnight use; standard room equipment includes air conditioning, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom, and the hotel provides complimentary Wi‑Fi and on-site parking for roughly 30 vehicles. Positioned within a short drive of central Miyazaki — about 2.5 km from the main station and roughly 3 km from the airport — it suits guests looking for convenience.
Room inventory covers several styles of double accommodation with both smoking and non‑smoking options; some units are fitted with feature extras such as open‑air or private outdoor baths and varied interior themes to match different preferences. Reception typically asks guests to indicate an approximate arrival time in advance, with check‑in concentrated in the evening and standard check‑out in the late morning. In‑room climate control and secure private bathrooms are consistent across categories, and a modest selection of on‑site or in‑room dining options is offered.
The building operates as a small, self-contained facility with practical vehicle access — parking can accommodate taller vehicles — making it convenient for visitors arriving by car from the expressway. Given its scale, stays tend to be brief and discreet, so notifying the property about arrival time helps streamline late check‑ins. For travellers seeking a straightforward love hotel in Miyazaki, the property combines basic modern amenities with a handful of rooms that include enhanced bathing features and easy access to nearby transport links.
