Hotels With Spa in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan

A really nice resort hotel. The room was spacious, and the private onsen bath was very clean. The peculiar smell was likely from the tatami mats. We had the hotel's set menu for breakfast but didn't have dinner at the hotel. The supermarket next to Izu Kogen Station offers abundant sashimi, enough to eat your fill. The photos show the places we visited during our stay, and it was all very relaxing. Having seen some less favorable reviews, let me share my own experience. The hotel's occupancy is highly seasonal, so there might not be many staff members, but they all provided attentive service. During our stay, the station pick-up and drop-off service was always well-arranged. When I'm on vacation, I prefer to relax and not be disturbed, so I opted out of daily room cleaning. I've stayed at some older Japanese-style hotels, similar to those in areas like Shikoku's Oboke, and this level of service is pretty typical. Of course, perhaps I just haven't visited enough Japanese resort hotels to generalize. Overall, I highly recommend staying here. Don't set your expectations too high, but it delivers on all the essentials for a relaxing getaway.

The staff were very polite, and I felt that both the facility and the rooms were clean and well-maintained. The amenities were plentiful, and above all, the food was very satisfying. The food was carefully prepared and beautiful to look at, and tasted good, so everything was delicious. I was able to relax in the open-air bath in my room. I would like to come back again.

The hotel's location is excellent, offering panoramic views of the entire bay. The hotel shuttle bus is convenient, running twice an hour. Breakfast offers a rich variety, including a flavorful miso soup made with fish bones and kamameshi (rice cooked in a pot). The dining area is spacious, and the staff tries their best to seat guests at tables with good views. It wasn't crowded during meal times either. We had dinner at the hotel both nights of our stay, trying the fish set menu, steak set menu, sashimi, and the splendid alfonsino set menu. All were exceptional, especially the sashimi, which was beautifully presented and incredibly fresh. Paired with local beer, it was a fantastic experience. For guests staying more than one night, if you choose to forgo room cleaning, the hotel provides a 1000 JPY voucher that can be used at the hotel's convenience store. I would definitely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Izu.

The room was quite large, but there were few charging points. The public onsen was charged 150 yen, regardless of whether or not to use it. We didn't ask because we couldn't speak the language. The breakfast wasn't to my liking; it was incredibly unpalatable. The hotel was able to help with taxis, costing 2,200 yen per person. It felt like the village was deserted. This is Central Izu. I booked the wrong place. We only visited Panorama Park, which wasn't much else. We also didn't visit the restored temple.

I was traveling alone and arrived at the hotel late. Despite the hour, the staff kindly prepared dinner for me. The hotel was very comfortable, clean, and equipped with all the necessary amenities. It is situated adjacent to an old mining pit and features two open-air hot springs, both of which are exceptionally clean and inviting. The hotel offers a traditional Japanese breakfast and dinner, with all dishes being remarkably fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this hotel for those seeking a secluded getaway to enjoy hot springs and relaxation.

The service was very good and the place is amazing. Nevertheless they didn’t allow us to have dinner or breakfast in the hotel as they said it was fully booked, and when requested for late check in we were asked to pay more. It would have been expected to be able to at least check in a bit later since we couldn’t enjoy the dinner or breakfast in the hotel and was inconvenient.

Overall, this hotel is a very cost-effective hotel, especially for guests who play golf. I will stay here again next time. I stayed in the hotel for three consecutive nights with breakfast and dinner. The dinner was different every day and very rich. There were two days of set breakfast and one day of buffet breakfast. You can see Mount Fuji from your room, but because of the cloudy weather, you can only see the top of the mountain for a short time. The rest of the time, Mount Fuji was hiding behind the clouds. It is said that because of the low light pollution, the hotel is very suitable for stargazing, but I ate too much for dinner every day and went to bed early. It's a pity. Next time I will experience the hot springs and stargazing. The hotel's hot spring is Nekogoshi Hot Spring, which has indoor and outdoor facilities. I especially like the outdoor hot spring. You need to walk down a few steps, as if you are in the middle of the woods. When the wind is strong, the leaves rustle, which is very healing. Let's talk about the hotel's golf course. Since I didn't book a package that included playing golf, the playing fee was additional, but it was also very affordable. I like to drive the golf course by myself, without a caddy, and play golf freely. The first nine holes were played in the woods. I was lucky to meet deer unexpectedly on the 2nd and 8th holes, which was a surprise; the last nine holes were more like deep in the wilderness. The golf course is not too difficult and there are not many people. If you don't play golf, you can go to Shuzenji to see the attractions. You can book the hotel's shuttle bus one day in advance to take you to Shuzenji Station, and then take a taxi or bus to go there.

It was pretty good! However, there is a mountain path to get there at night, so just be careful. The old building has been slightly renovated, so some things have an old feel to them. Tokai Bus currently has few routes... It's quite close if you get off at Shinmachi Station!

This hotel offers stunning hilltop views of the sea, especially beautiful at night. Make sure to take a taxi from the station, as there's a very steep hill to get there. The hotel service is excellent, and the place is clean and tidy. We booked a corner room with dual-aspect windows, and it even had a bathtub. Enjoying a drink on the balcony while admiring the night view was a highlight. There's also a fantastic teppanyaki restaurant at the foot of the hill (no English menu, though) that's delicious and reasonably priced.

Staff were all friendly and hardworking, very sincere in making the stay comfortable for all guest. Check-in and out was super easy. Very thoughtful and generous in room arrangements. A great view of mt fuji, right from the front doors of the hotel. The hotel is promoting environmental friendly measures and the water they use are all ionised, which is a plus point.
