Book your trip!

Forza experience was incredible! My husband and I only stayed for 2 nights but would have loved to stay longer. The hotel is beautiful, staff very friendly, & INCREDIBLE breakfast!! We would stay here again solely for the breakfast accommodation. However, the hotel room was spacious as well as the bed & pillows were comfortable. It was walking distance to everything including the bus station (10 min). We highly recommend!

The Forza Chain Always Meets Expectations

I have stayed at several Hotel Forzas across Japan and it always meets my expectations and delivers the same features & services. However, I have 2 gripes about this Hotel Forza property. Hotel lobby is on B1F and you always have to take the escalator down 1 floor from Ground to take one of two elevators to your room. There is a third elevator but that only takes you to Ground Floor. The complimentary 3-in-1 lotion only has grapefruit fragance and is not effective. Minor grievances, great hotel chain.
