Toba Hotels with Pools

Stayed 2 nights as a family vacation in July 2023. I was attracted by the water park and onsens photos on the agoda website. The hotel description AND the amenities list also included the water park. BUT it's not open until after mid July. We felt duped. We were given a beautiful room that consists of two beds and two futons. There were a sitting area and a Japanese bathroom. I have no complaints except the hotel notebook is dusty and there's a dead bug in the stationery tray. Maybe they don't clean it - like ever? After covid one would expect a hotel would pay more attention to cleaning... The breakfast buffet and dinner buffet both had good spreads. We liked wagyu beef and the little hotpot at dinner. There are 3 onsen locations. They are all different. There are massage machines as well. We got quite busy. Although they were very polite and eager to help, almost no one spoke English at the hotel. The instructions and hotel map were written in Japanese only. We did have fun guessing and gesturing. Surprisingly my kids liked the vending machines the most. They venture out by themselves to get ramen,  milk, ice cream, etc. as their little treasure hunt every night.

We stayed in a sea view room, from the room you can see the beautiful sea and mountains, the glass in the room is very clean, and the overall cleaning is very good. Thanks to a waitress named Meng who was Chinese when I checked in, she helped us as a translator, which made us go through the formalities smoothly. Miss Meng also told us the place to eat breakfast and dinner, the time and place of the hot spring, if there is no help from Miss Meng, We will encounter a lot of difficulties, because this hotel is very large and bustling, walking like a maze, like such an international tourist hotel too need people who can speak Chinese. The hotel's breakfast and dinner are very special, especially dinner, as well as roast beef and seafood, which is great! The location of the hotel is excellent. It takes only three minutes to get out of the Bird's Station. There is also a sightseeing bus terminal and a cruise ship terminal next to it. It is very convenient to go to various tourist attractions. There are many hot springs in the hotel, forming a hot spring village, which is very characteristic.

This hotel is the biggest surprise of our trip to Sane County, no one! The whole hotel is surrounded by mountains and sea, the building is an Italian-style castle, the interior is retro but very bright! The room is with a balcony, facing the sea and trees, to be cured! I booked a package that included two meals and one berth and stayed for two nights. It turned out that the first day dinner was French and six-course, and the next day dinner was kaiseki; we chose Japanese for both breakfasts, because it was too luxurious and they were as rich as dinner. In the evening, I also soaked in hot springs with my daughter ♨️; The hotel's service is very abundant, really wholeheartedly recommended!

Last time I used it with my wife, I was really interested, so this year I used it for consecutive nights. Among the things I was interested in, I especially liked this SPA and made a reservation this time, so I headed to Onjuku in time🚙 Arrived at just the right time, welcome sparkling while checking in🥂. . . On this day, we stayed in the same room as last time, the Premium Suite with Dining, Room 209, ”Sankai”. The person who came and the other woman greeted me, explained the menu and consulted about the contents, and decided to have a 100-minute full body and head SPA. . . No, I was feeling really good, and then I was really hungry. I felt a sense of emotion 🙌 Today is the 22nd 😲 After the 100-minute SPA refreshed my body and stomach (laughs), I had dinner in the dining room in the room I had been waiting for. . . I was wondering if I could eat in the car on my way, but now I'm so hungry that I can't stand it. 🍻 Start with appetizers: conger eel skin cucumber ginger, eel Hachiman rolls, horse mackerel sushi, salmon lotus root rolls, Torimatsu style, conger roe, Maruju lemon simmered, ginkgo pine needles. Koyose and horse mackerel sushi are the best! Beer goes well. Next is sashimi, so I ordered cold sake. For the sashimi, sweet shrimp, turban shell, amberjack, and grunt were beautifully arranged in a bowl lined with ice 🐟🦐 This goes well with cold sake ❣ Next, soup made with clear soup, beaten shrimp, edamame tofu, grilled wheat gluten, Lotus yam, Matsuba yuzu, a gentle dashi soup that will make your heart and stomach happy 🎵 Strong dish: butter-grilled black abalone from Ise-Shima, asparagus, tomato, king oyster mushroom, and liver sauce Surprisingly good for two people who love abalone. I want to lick this liver sauce with the plate (laughs). Especially the black abalone. . . It seems that the abalone that eats wakame is decreasing because wakame is decreasing. I wonder if the sea water temperature is rising. I like it(・∀・)!! The delicious Japanese-style sauce is good❣ Even I, who doesn't like beef, was able to eat it all at once. The rice to finish off was small fish rice, and while I was eating it, the rice cooker was making the sound of being finished, which made me laugh (laughs). Ta 💦 This fruit dessert made my stomach burst. I didn't have an appetite until I came here, but I can't believe I could eat so much 😲 After dinner, I relaxed in the open-air bath attached to the room and went to dark on the first day. . . Breakfast is Japanese food at the dining room ”Arashi”. There are plenty of grilled fish, dashi rolls*, sashimi, salad, etc. 🍚 Check out once and visit Ise (Naiku). *We will upload it separately. On the day I came back to Onjuku, there was a maisonette suite called ”Senpa” in room 112 of the Ushio Building. (^ ^; I searched the room and the open-air bath with the room is small, and it's probably a separate building from the room I stayed in the previous day, but the room is old and messy, so I was excited. So, the two of us, sweating from visiting Ise, went to the public bath for the first time. (Laughs) Well, let's enjoy dinner 🙌 There is no restaurant in the room tonight, so we ate it in a private room in the dining room ”Arashi” 🍚 First we had beer 🍻, followed by cold sake. I love chawanmushi, so I'm excited again (laugh). I forgot something, but it was a combination of fish, small yam, carrots, peas, etc. Grilled appetizers: Large prawns and black abalone grilled in a bowl of abalone shells. A happy plate full of black abalone. The beef stew is so yummy that it changes the concept of beef stew you've ever eaten, and it's made by the head chef who loves meat. I'm not perfect, so I still can't seem to eat fried food, so I'm sorry for the smell of fried food... To finish off, we had sushi rolls with lots of ingredients, such as * and tuna. Yogurt and fruit blueberry sauce No, my stomach bursts (laughs) After eating, I took a leisurely soak in the hot spring in my room to relieve the fatigue of the day ♨ Good morning! Miso soup, simmered taro, steamed egg custard, sweet shrimp sashimi, dashi rolls, salad, and more! I feel nauseous. After this, my appetite returned and it was really good ❣ It may be because of the SPA, but I think it's because of the beautiful appearance of the chef Yamakawa and the many delicious dishes. Especially black abalone and beef stew are the best❣ I will come back again. The room is a premium suite with dining (laughs) Thank you (person ``▽ `) Thank you ☆ Lastly, I am grateful to my wife who has always been worried about me when I was not feeling well. Thanks dear. Let's be Love Love forever💕

It's the most joyful family in Japan when I come back! Although a bit old, hygiene is absolutely fine. There is a shuttle service to jr toba, about 5 minutes by car. The hotel has Chinese staff. Ctrip is not very honest. The so-called sea view room is just a sea view at the end of the view. The open-air experience is very good! Breakfast is mainly Japanese, with many varieties, personally prefer. Check out at 10 o'clock, unfortunately I did n’t enjoy it. If possible, I will go to Toba again.

Breakfast is more abundant, and people who like dogs can meet a variety of dogs and eat together. Japanese dogs are very clean, have no flying hair, have no taste, and are not very popular. Occasionally, the master yelled and shut up. There is an air purifier in the room, don't worry that the child is not healthy. But the hot water is not hot springs. It is very good to have a dog in Japan to live. We went to the hotel if there is no room in other hotels. It is a very good choice. It is a very special experience. Downstairs is a harbour, there are a lot of fishing boats, just strolling and strolling is not bad.

Stayed for three nights, the environment is very good, the mountain is facing the sea, the dining level is high, the service attitude is very good, there is a shuttle bus, the soup is comfortable, the check-out time is later than the average Japanese hotel (12 o'clock), do not hurry.
