"This price is absolutely amazing in Atami! The location is fantastic! The landlady is incredibly kind; even though I don't understand any Japanese, she still communicates with me using gestures! She even gives me little snacks every day before I leave! I'll definitely stay here again next time I'm in Atami!"

DDayusangThe room was very big. We took three baths in the hot springs and it was very comfortable. Remember to include breakfast and dinner next time, otherwise it will be difficult to find food in Yugawara.
GGudaohudieThe room was larger than in Tokyo, with complete facilities, and very close to the station, a 5-minute walk.
There are direct train stations right outside the door to the Museum of Modern Art (MOA) and Kiunkaku. The MOA is worth a visit. Kiunkaku is less well-known.
The room had a sea view, and both smoking and non-smoking rooms were available. Soundproofing was good. The bed was also large enough.
JJiushiaidaochupaoLiving in the Japanese style on the third floor, bright and bright, the view is also very good . The most important thing is that it is super clean, the smart bathroom is very good and very new. I want to give my own home a whole set, the basin is so deep. 
The owner is super good. We arrived early and went to Atami to see the fireworks conference. Come back and check in. The air conditioner is turned on and the box has been put in the room. The box is very heavy, I am really sorry. At first, I planned to put the box downstairs and take the replacement clothes upstairs.
I confirmed the check-out time of the next day with the host. The host offered to drive us to the station. You must know that this is all uphill, which is really intimate.
Very highly recommended one.
Some small tips, Izu, Atami are all kinds of slopes, all kinds of steps, don't bring big boxes like me, remember to remember!
It's dark at night, bring a flashlight.
BBosco FungIt was my first time to search for a hotel by car. It was very difficult to find a hotel. I couldn’t find the two hotels on the left. I searched Google Maps and couldn’t find the location. I passed three hotels in a row and there were no signs on the roadside.
The staff at the two nearby restaurants always have people asking for directions😆😆
Old-style hotel, you have to carry luggage on the first floor
The front desk staff is friendly and kind.
The restaurant is nice
AAnonymous UserGood:
1. It’s close to station
2. The view from the rooftop is insanely beautiful (I’m sure you can get such a view from other hotels too though)
3. There’s a “living room” area for you to hang out with others but it seems to always be occupied by a group of people
Bad:
1. There is NO light from station to the stay, so if you’re walking at night it’s REALLY scary and eerie
2. They charge for everything lmao
GGuest UserI experienced the Japanese-style room, but there was no shower facility in the room. I had to go to the bathhouse on the third floor, which was a different experience. I could get a ride to JR Atami Station in the morning. The road in Atami was ups and downs. It was close to the seaside. It was very pleasant to walk along the seaside in the evening.
GGuest UserIt was a quaint, cozy hotel situated close to JR Atami Station. The hotel has very good food for both dinner and breakfast! The staff are friendly and even though they can't speak good English, they tried their best to communicate to the best of their knowledge and I really appreciate it! I especially enjoyed my time at the onsen on the rooftop, it has good facilities.
The only thing is the cleanliness of the room, since there is still water in the kettle from the previous guests, I didn't want to drink any water from the kettle because of it. They should replace it with a new kettle or clean it. Otherwise, the room is also very cozy, they give yukatas for guests to wear them around the hotel and they also offer free transport to JR Atami station. Otherwise, I would have struggled to get around since there is lack of public transportation at Atami!
I still have a very good time and enjoyed my time because of the friendly staff at the hotel, they are very helpful! 10/10 will come back again with my friends or family in the future.
GGuest UserI originally planned to go from Shimizu to Nagano, but later I felt that the journey was too tiring so I booked this hotel temporarily.
The number of reviews is actually not usually considered by me.
I was quite hesitant to make the bed myself after seeing the reviews about the taste.
But considering the price and room size of Atami Hotel, I still think this hotel is good value for money.
Actual stay experience:
The sanitary conditions are in line with the expectations of Japanese hotels and are quite clean.
In terms of transportation, it is a bit inconvenient. It is not far from the station, but because of the characteristics of Atami as a mountain city, it is very inconvenient to drag suitcases in the hotel south of Atami. I was exhausted with two suitcases on the first day, especially when I was in a hurry.
The facilities are indeed old, but it's just like that after getting used to it. The small TV is a problem, but moving the table over, it's not bad for the family to watch TV at night. It's a bit troublesome to make the bed yourself, but it's also fun, and it's relatively easy to put on the quilt.
In terms of service, the money I needed to pay was calculated incorrectly at the beginning, and I spent a lot of time at the front desk, and the attitude of the aunt with glasses was not particularly friendly, which is a minus point.
Hot springs are a big plus. Self-service free booking is very convenient. You can scan the QR code to see where there are vacancies and go directly. If it is a day-return hot spring, the booking is very expensive.
Overall, it is a good stay experience. It is like the Japanese apartment in Japanese dramas. The space is also open, and there is a microwave and refrigerator.
It is worth recommending.
GGuest UserThe room condition, size, food, and hot springs were all good value for money, and it was a decent hotel.
However, the reason I gave it one star was because:
1. When I used Google Maps to find the hotel via rental car, it only led me to the back of the building, which was on a hillside road. Even the lobby counter knew this. I wish the hotel would take corrective action with Google.
2. The travel platform didn't provide any additional information beyond the ”free dedicated parking” description. The actual parking lot was about a 15-20 minute walk from the hotel, and there was no space in front of the hotel to park, check in, or unload.
I rented a car, but I was frustrated because I couldn't find the parking lot entrance.
PPumpkinOverall, it could be rated excellent as a local ryokan but may not be ready for international clients. It has won Rakuten bronze award 2023. I am particular about smoking and the non smoking room was full of smoky smell. Also surprised that I have to set up my own tatami bed etc. Staff dependent on google translate but stranded when there's no WiFi. They could have translated common phrases in text. Nice garden.
