Hotel 4Season
8,2/10 Excellent - Based on 199 reviews
Hotel 4Season is a mid-sized love hotel in Miyazaki offering a resort-like setting on the city’s coastal fringe near Kodomo-no-Kuni and Aoshima Shrine. Rooms range from compact doubles to larger suites and a handful of VIP units with sea-view terraces and private open-air baths; several sea-facing rooms include massage chairs. The property presents itself as a contemporary love hotel Miyazaki option that balances private on‑site parking with amenity-rich rooms rather than conventional city-center lodging.
Guest amenities emphasize in-room entertainment and convenience: free high-speed Wi‑Fi, smart TVs with streaming compatibility, in-room VOD and games, kettles, microwaves and small refrigerators. Bathrooms are supplied with branded toiletries and many rooms feature jet or bubble baths; select VIP rooms add outdoor tubs. On-site services include a 24-hour reception, room service and a members program that extends discounts and complimentary items such as welcome drinks, small snacks and a choice of breakfast types served to the room.
The layout and services make the hotel suited to couples seeking privacy or a relaxed base for nearby sightseeing; the property sits within easy driving distance of coastal sights and is roughly nine kilometres from the regional airport. Dedicated parking spaces are allocated per room and accessibility options are available in select units. As a regional choice among love hotel Kyushu properties, operational patterns favour evening arrivals, with standard check-in hours beginning around 20:00, so travellers should verify arrival-time policies and room availability when booking.
