Naomi_ioiFor just over 1000 yen, getting a one-night stay with two meals for two people, plus a sea view, is incredible value! The dinner buffet, while not huge, had excellent quality ingredients. We feasted on delicious salmon and tuna. The room was spacious. Sure, there were a few minor imperfections in some corners, but for this price, I can't complain. The only real issue was that the hotel only offers free luggage storage until 3 PM. They didn't mention this when we dropped off our bags. Halfway through our Kumano Kodo hike, a friend behind me delivered the bad news. I ended up having to carry six people's luggage to our next accommodation all by myself. It was quite a heartbreaking experience.

The location would be very inconvenient if you don't have a car.
The parking lot is large, so it was very convenient when I visited with a rental car.
The dinner and breakfast were very good.
The hot springs were too hot to stay for long, but the scenery was very nice.

Very nice hotel with wonderful outdoor onzen bath, great service and excellent food. Two downsides though: Our bedroom was facing a brick wall which is not what you would expect when booking a hotel in this location, and at that price level. I wish we had been notified beforehand. Also, the service in the restaurant was very rushed. The hotel was very busy due to the ***** new year and I guess they were trying to get clients quickly through dinners to rotate services quickly but given the quality of the food, it was unfortunate that we could not spend more time enjoying it. But other than that, the hotel was great and I highly recommend it.

I stayed in the smallest single room with no window. The cleanliness was consistently good, but it felt quite old and dated. I only recommend the hot springs at 'Boguidong' (忘归洞) ♨️. They switch the male and female baths in the morning and evening, so you should try both to experience different locations and see the Pacific Ocean waves (official website photos attached). The hotel's hilltop walking trail is highly recommended. There's a viewing telescope there, and amazingly, you can clearly see Nachi Falls and the tuna auction at the morning market!

The hotel was perfect! Breakfast with an ocean view was lovely, and the room was incredibly spacious and new, especially compared to other hotels in the area. The 11th-floor onsen offered breathtaking views, and I loved soaking in the beautiful Shirahama sunsets every evening. Ramen shops, convenience stores, and drugstores are all within walking distance. The bus stop is a short walk down to the beach, and all the main attractions are easily accessible from there, which was very convenient. The only downside was the uphill walk, which was quite a struggle when carrying luggage. However, I would definitely choose this hotel again for my next visit.

Super cozy hotel. Well located right next to the station. It’s a smalll town so everything is within walking distance. Rooms are comfortable and the staff is super friendly. They have English instructions for everything plus can communicate with translate when needed. FYI when checking in they have a phone to call in for help or anything and sometimes the person there only speaks Japanese so may take a minute to communicate stuff through there. Still highly recommend them!

zinggitThe room was really nice, small but very clean. Breakfast included toast and coffee. The front desk staff were incredibly polite and welcoming, as were all the residents of Nachikatsuura. The overall travel experience here was fantastic!

Guest UserThis is the best hotel experience! It's perched on a hilltop in Kushimoto, and the lobby offers an unbeatable ocean view. You absolutely have to choose the one-meal-two-stay package; the buffet dinner runs until 9 PM, which is perfect for a satisfying meal after a day of sightseeing. They have a great selection, including tuna sashimi, a special tea-rice dish, Western cuisine, and more – definitely a top-notch buffet.
My favorite part was the public bath. There's an outdoor section with sea views, which is incredibly relaxing. The waiting area is spacious and even has free ice cream bars, which the kids absolutely loved.
The most relaxing aspect was the happy hour in the lobby, with unlimited beer, wine, sparkling drinks, and snacks. You can just sit back and enjoy the blissful ocean views.
The only downside: there was a strong musty smell, especially noticeable and persistent when it rained.

A truly satisfying hotel in Shirahama! All facilities and the main building are accessible, and the hot springs and foot bath are excellent. The room wasn't small, and even though it was facing the road, it was incredibly quiet at night. The sea breeze was so pleasant! Shirahama is a lot of fun, and I'll definitely stay at Key 1 again next time! The location is super convenient; it's easy to walk to everything nearby. I even walked to the local beer factory for a refreshing pint – fantastic!
