LifeStyleHotel ichi一棟貸切りホテル
A 5-star whole building with a kitchen, under a kilometre from the station
About this stay
Renting the entire building here means a full kitchen rather than a kitchenette, a washing machine, and outdoor furniture for sitting outside rather than being confined indoors, a different proposition entirely from a standard hotel room. The under-a-kilometre distance to the station keeps this within realistic walking range despite the more residential, whole-house character of the property. Guests consistently single out room comfort, size and cleanliness, and the combination of five-star positioning with self-catering facilities is unusual, closer to a high-end serviced house than a conventional luxury hotel. That pairing, five-star comfort with full self-catering independence, is not something the rest of Kochi's hotel stock offers, which is why it commands its position at the top of the city's luxury tier.
- Whole building rental
- Full kitchen
- Washing machine
- 5-star comfort
Our take
This is the choice for a group or family wanting five-star comfort with the independence of a full kitchen and their own space, rather than a hotel floor shared with other guests. The washing machine is genuinely useful on a longer Shikoku trip. Solo travellers or anyone wanting a staffed hotel with a restaurant and front desk around the clock should look elsewhere.
- Book this one for a group or family wanting to cook at least one meal during the stay.
- Arrange off-site parking ahead of arrival, since it is not directly on the property.
- Use the outdoor furniture in the evening, it is a rare feature for central Kochi.
Why we love it
- A full kitchen, not just a kitchenette

Why guests love itLifeStyleHotel ichi is rented as a whole building, less than a kilometre from the station in Kochi, so a group or family gets the place to itself. I recommend it for longer Shikoku stays: the full kitchen, bath and washing machine let you settle in rather than just sleep, and the outdoor furniture adds space for evenings. Guests across 38 reviews rate it 8, with praise for comfort and cleanliness. Note that the private parking is off-site and paid, so drivers should plan for it.
