Dogo, on the edge of Matsuyama in Shikoku, is reached by a charming streetcar that terminates at Dogo Onsen Station — from there, the shopping arcade, the storied Dogo Onsen Honkan bathhouse and most of the town's inns are a short stroll. We track 23 stays in our database within walking distance, from $45 a night. Hotel Kowakuen Haruka pairs a 9.6 rating with rooms around $100, Dogo Onsen Funaya (9.6) is one of the town's most historic names, and Bettei Oborozukiyo offers a quieter, upscale take. No car needed at any point; book early for spring and autumn weekends.
