Prefettura di Shizuoka, Giappone: hotel romantici

This establishment is situated on the outskirts of Gotenba, a location we selected due to having a car. Navigating to this spot via public transportation might prove somewhat difficult. While there is a convenience store nearby, other walkable amenities in the immediate vicinity are limited. The hotel provides both indoor and outdoor public onsen facilities. Additionally, a foot bath offering views of Mount Fuji is available on the top floor. Guests can also enjoy ramen or soba as a complimentary midnight snack. The rooms were clean; however, some lime residue was observed on the bathroom door, which could suggest an oversight in the cleaning process.

Clean and well-kept hotel. Love the restaurant setting. Hawaii-theme hotel by the beach. Rate is reasonable, especially during the off-season. High season, a lot more expensive but if you love hotel by the beach with outdoor pool, medium size natural hot spring, this place is worth consideration. Great to go in early to mid February when the Kawazu sakura start to blossom along the river near the hotel - an easy 18-minute walk along the coast from hotel.

The resort is truly remarkable with good food and onsen facilities. My rating is purely based on the resort experience. However, I will like to provide feedback on the reservation experience on trip.com. The pricing indicated on trip.com is not totally transparent. At the time of booking, I indicated 2 adults and a 7yo child to get accurate pricing. The amount was prepaid with a small fee JPY450 to be paid at hotel. At check in, I was shocked to learn that we are expected to pay for the child room rate at JPY22k+. That was not indicated on the “to pay at hotel’. Trip.com customer service officer replied that the requirement was indicated on the email confirmation sent. This is upsetting as I usually used the mobile app and relied on available information to make reservation. It is not my habit to check email confirmation given the information on the app is correct. Pricing should be made transparent at point of booking and not after booking. And out of ‘goodwill’ they offered me a compensation close to 50% of the child room rate. I have been using trip.com since covid and this is my first time having such issue. I hope my experience can benefit others who is booking this accommodation with child.

Self checkin is much easier than expected, it highly recommends to make the checkin in advance that the Hotel will send the email to customer. And please make a large sign for self-checkin tablet, it took a half minute to locate the tablet. If you have any problem, just directly press the button “contact staff”, they will process to relevant staff (i.e. speak in Japanese, English or Mandarin). It is walkable distance to the beach, convenience stores 7-11 and Family Mart, and many restaurants. No clear instruction for cleaning, other than that, all is good for our stay.

Waking up to see the Mount Fuji from the room is the highlight. Hot spring is also available in the room. The hotel rooms are spacious and located over the hillside - the most convenient way to commute between buildings are via car/ shuttle bus; walking may take much longer. Lights in the room are a bit too dim to us. Limited amenities are available, with no toothbrush/ toothpaste in room. Futons are available, but self-serve. Access to Laforet and Izu Marriott public hot springs is available. Unfortunately towels are not available in the public bath of Laforet - towels need to brought from hotel room. Standard dinner / breakfast buffets are available.

È un soggiorno piuttosto freddo e godere del cibo a Isaribi. Il pranzo è soooo impatto. Il cibo del mare è fresco. E benvenuto matcha e dessert è bello. Prenotera' di nuovo!

Ottimo luogo, bel vecchio edificio storico. La primavera calda è buona. Il pranzo non è di prima qualità ma accettabile. Il servizio ha una certa spazio per migliorare. È di ritorno.

It’s a very charming place with a real wabi-sabi atmosphere - simple, quiet, and full of nostalgic beauty. Quite old-fashioned, but well maintained. This spot became popular on a Russian platform, so there are many tourists from Russia ( me as well) . When I visited the onsen, there were seven people in total - all Russian girls. Overall, it doesn’t stop you from having a great rest. However, it’s not really suitable for a honeymoon, as my husband and I were separated the whole time — there are no mixed onsens for men and women, probably because the place is now mostly visited by foreigners. When we checked out, they kindly drove us back to the station. I left with a complete sense of relaxation. Thank you!

The staff was very professional and kind. We reserved the private onsen for an additional cost. We booked the biggest onsen. The washing area and the changing room was impeccably clean. The end of the tub however was a bit scary. The walls and ceiling was covered in spider webs and there were giant spiders hanging on there which was a bit unnerving. Otherwise the public washing areas and the room were very clean. The ryokan however is a bit outdated. There are some markings on the wall and curtains.

Probabilmente uno dei migliori hotel che abbia mai soggiornato in Giappone, vicino alla stazione Atami, e ogni camera in questo hotel ha la vista sul mare, che è estremamente bella quando è sole. Le camere sono spaziose e molto pulite, il privato è dotato di TV privata per rilassarsi nel bagno caldo. Inoltre hanno pubblico aperto di air on top floor. La prossima volta probabilmente proverò la camera con privato di air on balcone. L'hotel offre anche una sala da fitness, un minibar e una sala da pranzo, e, più importante, il personale dell'hotel è molto utile e gentile. Hanno fornito consigli utili sul trasporto a diversi luoghi di visibilità e hanno prenotato un traghetto gratuito per la mia famiglia alla stazione Atami.
