Find 3-Star Hotels in Shimoda

Excellent location being just in front of the train station. Within walking distance to the main tourist attractions, and the bus station for buses going to the beach is just in front of the hotel. Lots of restaurants and convenience stores around. Mc Donald’s is just next door.  Room was spacious and clean. Well equipped with all the amenities required.  Staff were efficient, friendly and could speak basic English. Breakfast served was basic but excellent.  Definitely highly recommended hotel.

The hotel is on the beach of Duoduohu. After taking the car to Shita Station, I will change to a bus and then walk for a while. The hotel is on the hillside, so I climbed a small slope and dragged the box a bit tired. In fact, the hotel has a pick-up station, which is to start from the beginning, so the next time you have a stay needs, you can refer to the picture below. The pick-up car was parked on the edge of the Shita bus station. The room facilities are old, but the hotel service is still quite good. The front desk staff explained very clearly on the day of check-in. The lobby and room views are very good and the sea view is invincible. The hotel has an entrance to the beach, suitable for tourists who come to surf, and there are people surfing in the sea at 5 am. The hotel packages morning and evening meals, very exquisite and the service is in place. The hotel room is very large, compared to the hotel in Yokohama, it is too spacious, suitable for children to take a holiday.

Very Japanese style, suitable for foreigners who want to experience pure Japanese style and natural hot springs. It’s so worth it, so mysterious and amazing🤩

There is a bus license plate at the door of this hotel. There is a 24-hour beef rice next to it, and there is a 711, which is very convenient for shopping. Facing the sea, it is a sea view room. The price/performance ratio is really super high. The hotel attendant was very nice and took the luggage to the house. The hotel was renovated at first glance and the room was very clean. The furniture is not high class, but it is enough, and the balcony is also very good. But there is no hot water in the room. I prefer to take a shower in the big bath. It doesn't matter. People who don't have hot water can't accept it. Please be cautious.

The service is very good. The front desk can speak simple English, and a translator is needed for more. The quilt in the room is very soft and comfortable, the fragrance in the room is also very good, and the hot spring soup is very comfortable. Although it is said to be public, it is actually used separately (there are two rooms with lockable doors). There are also vending machines selling drinks after soaking in the hot spring. It is about ten minutes' walk from the station. It is a bit difficult to walk with a large suitcase because the sidewalk is narrow. Overall, it is a good experience.

The garden villa has several types of accommodation: rooms in the main residence with or without ocean view and independent apartments. We were in the standard hotel room on the side. The value for money was very interesting but the decor is outdated, the bathroom is an added cabin and it is a shame not to take full advantage of the balcony overlooking the water. To do it again, we would choose a better room or the apartment. The location is on a hill, close to Shiharama beach where surfers meet. A bus leaves the station (stop 9) and runs along the coast to Ito with a stop almost at the foot of the hotel, however pay attention to the timetable: approximately 1 bus/hour. The owners are adorable and do not hesitate to transport you if necessary, especially to and from Shimoda station (main access). The exterior is neat with an infinity pool, a small bar and above all 2 outdoor Onsen which we reserve (40 minutes between 4 p.m. and 9:30 p.m./reservation per room so couple OK)).The latter, facing the ocean, are a real plus. A Barbecue/grill restaurant area was being renovated and should allow on-site catering. At the hotel, the breakfast is good but the hours were strict and restricted: 8 a.m.-8:30 a.m....perhaps because we were out of season? Free access to drinks such as coffee, tea, herbal teas, chocolate... In November, calm guaranteed! A rental car would be really nice.

I like the ancient beauty here and imagine how lively it would be in this long river of history!

The scenery nearby is very good and the distance from the station is acceptable. However, the hotel facilities are really old and the hotel needs to renovate the rooms.

The food was good. The bath attached to the room was also very nice as the running water felt like it was clinging to my skin.
