Top hotels in Higashi Ward
Kurashiki Ekimae Universalhotel
Daiwa Roynet Hotel Okayama Ekimae
Great location in Okayama, right near the station and across from a great area for bars and restaurants. Was tricky to find initially from the station, but once you know the route its easy to go back and forth. Staff were very friendly and polite helping with holding bags before check in, amenities ...

Okayama Washington Hotel Plaza
Most staff was friendly. However, there was no AC only heat. Thus our room was very hot. There was some mold in the corner of the bath tub. The location is decent.
