Hotels in Ehime, Japan

Ehime is a prefecture on Shikoku Island, Japan, with a mild climate-summers average 86°F (30°C) and winters stay around 41°F (5°C). Famous for the 3,000-year-old Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse and Matsuyama Castle, you can visit these in any season, but spring brings cherry blossoms along the Shiroyama Park, while autumn's cool weather is perfect for cycling the 70km Shimanami Kaido across the Seto Inland Sea. For a winter trip, soak in the hot springs after exploring the castle, or try picking fresh mikan oranges from local farms in the fall.
