The ryokan was well preserved and maintained an old Japanese traditional style house. Our room was a spacious tatami mat room with small and cute yards. Kotatsu (a table with heater) provided a nice touch. The private bath was small but enough for two to three people. It is a good ryokan to experience Japanese Inn, especially people from overseas. One side note, you do not expect to sleep on bed in this Ryokan. Staff was kind and friendly. Recommend!!

A little 'traditional' gem
My partner and I had a great time at Dougoya. Our experience in such a traditional manner (tatami room, yukata, futon, onsen, simple breakfast) made our stay memorable. Thanks to the owner and his staff :)

We had a lovely time at this hotel. It has a bit of a hostel vibe with the shared toilets and showers, although it was all impeccably clean and we never had to wait for a turn. The staff were lovely and very helpful. Breakfast was basic but filling and the coffee was really nice. The ryokan is an easy tram ride out of the centre to Dōgo, where the famous onsen is. (I would greatly recommend going there too and having the tea and sweets after your bath! It felt very luxurious!)

Beautiful traditional inn located within the historic Dogo area. We had a large tatami room with futon which we were hoping for. Lovely breakfast provided. Didn't know that there was a small onsen (bath) at the inn until we got there, ran out of time to use it but we went to another fantastic one nearby. Would definitely stay here again, thanks for your hospitality and beautiful building.

Loved it.
Very good-value if you don't mind sharing bathrooms - Dogo Onsen and Asuka-no-yu around the corner for bathing opportunity anyway and you can wear yukatas and slippers provided by Dougoya to wear around town. Our actual tatami room was very spacious and peaceful. Japanese breakfast extremely simple, hot rice, misoshiru, pickles, tea and coffee, served in a functional kitchen, but you are welcome to bring extra food to supplement. Staff were wonderfully kind and charming. We'd go back any time.

We absolutely loved this Ryokan! It is a beautiful building, of historical Japanese style. The rooms were comfortable and clean, the hospitality superb. It is located within walking distance of the Dogo Onsen and affiliated shopping area plus the local streetcar is nearby too. The hot waters of the Ryokan's onsen are from the same source as the Dogo Onsen so thoroughly enjoyed the comforts of bathing 'in house'. If you are looking for a traditional, non-Western style of accommodation, we definitely recommend this Ryokan. We hope to return for another visit too!

Thank you for staying at DOUGOYA. We hope you had a good time in Matsuyama and with us. We serve our simple breakfast for FREE. And don't want to charge for it. We try keep serving it for our guests. Best regards, DOUGOYA

A cozy little ryokan with character - love it!
A traditional Japanese ryokan with a strong human touch! The owner was so kind to offer us a bigger and more conveniently located room on the first floor so we didn't need to move our heavy luggage up and down. The room was overseeing the zen garden of the ryokan and it was lovely!

予約する時、共同トイレであることが知らされていなかったので家族が非常に戸惑った。共同風呂と書かれていたが予約で一杯だったので宿で風呂に入る事ができなかった。また連休の関係で契約農家から野菜が入って来ないと言われて朝食無しのプランになっていた。近くで朝ごはんが食べられるところも教えてもらえなかったのが残念。

도고온센 여행을 더욱 멋지게 만들어 준 도고야 호텔
정말 멋진 곳입니다. 시코쿠에서 8일 동안 여행했는데 이 숙소가 단연 최고였습니다. 체크인 이전 일정이 꼬여 체크인 시간에 많이 늦었는데 친절하게 처리해주셔서 감동적이었습니다. 아침 식사도 맛있고, 작지만 내실있는 온천 역시 매우 만족스러웠습니다. 품위 있는 일본 가정집에 초대 받아 근사한 대접을 받은 기분입니다. 도고온천에서의 시간을 더욱 완벽하게 만들고 싶다면 도고야를 강추합니다!

アメニティとしての歯ブラシ類はありませんし、布団も各自、食事も各自です。部屋で騒いではいけません。そういったことが気にならない方にはオススメです。非常に綺麗に掃除がされていますし、お風呂のお湯も非常に良いです。

純和の建物です。大好きな人にはたまりません。
昔の料亭だそうです。一見普通に見える和風の収まりですが至るとこに大工さんの技が隠れています。今では入手するには効果すぎる一枚ものの天井、床、欄間。細工が難しい竹。絢爛豪華な装飾とは一味違った草庵風の和室のしつらえ。 和の建物が好きな方は満足されると思います。

對和式老屋情有獨鍾者可考慮入住
該旅館是自昭和初年即存在的建築，所在地步行數分鐘即可抵達道後溫泉，逛街及泡湯便利，喜歡體驗和風懷古的旅客可考慮。住客多是歐美背包客，需與人共用廁所及衛浴設備，自駕停車需停至公用停車場，需自費停車，較不方便。
