Okayama International Hotel
Luxury decor, a wandering garden and fine dining

By Rory Jackson

The rooms are clean and comfortable with a quality feel.

The Le Chateau Noir is a popular upmarket bar with a fancy mix of couches and stools to enjoy your night on.

The dining area spreads out on to the balcony, giving amazing views over the large waterfall and Okayama city.

The lounge area is large, warm and comfortable and has so many art pieces it could be a museum.

Some of the art work in the lounge was beautifully designed glass pieces by Tomoka Ohnishi.

The garden delivers some nice views over the city whilst leading you to a wealth of romantic spots.

The odd piano sits around the place, adding to the class of the decor.

The kitchen puts on an amazing breakfast buffet with waffles, real fruit juice, local produce, and so much more.

The new garden area Lover's Hill is a romantic roam through pathways up the hill and down the valley.

The massive building stands on the top of the hill and can be seen from a fair way away.

The non-denominational church provides a place for marriage and prayer.
