Hot Springs Hotels in Shimoda

This hotel rating 4.2 is really deserved! First of all, there is no seaside, just in the vicinity, there is no scenery through the window, all are houses. The equipment in the house is also very poor, old and not retro. . . . Secondly, breakfast only bread boiled white egg milk juice. There is no hot food, no tray service, it is full buffet. Eating on the first floor, there is no scenery outside. Finally, Tangchi is also a pool on the top floor, which is much worse than other soup pools in Japan. Because the price of the May Day has risen sharply, more than 800 in the evening, this price/performance ratio, think about it.

She wanted a proper ryokan experience, so after some searching, we found one that felt right—well-kept, understated, and quietly confident. We arrived just before 5pm and were met at the car park by a gentleman who greeted us by name and carried our luggage in. Inside, we were welcomed by Na (I hope I got that right), who walked us through everything—the onsen, breakfast, the rhythm of the place—before leading us to our room. The ryokan has been around for close to a century, and you can feel it. Not in a grand or showy way, but in the stillness. Standing by the window, looking down at the pond—ducks drifting across, carp circling slowly—it was almost too quiet, the kind that makes you pause without realising. We headed out briefly that evening to explore the small town and grab dinner, but came back early. The onsen drew us in—hot water against the cool night air—and by the time we laid out the futons, everyone was ready to sink in. Soft, simple, and unexpectedly comfortable. Morning came gently—birds in the background, ducks already awake. At breakfast, our family name was waiting for us, and the spread was generous without being excessive. We ate more than we should have. By 10am, we were packing up again. All the staff was there to send us off. 

Although it was quite far from the dining place and the large communal bath in a remote room, I was able to enjoy the summer Obon holiday by freely using the cart. I was impressed by the many stars in the night sky. The bath was also good and I was able to go home with beautiful skin. The landlady came to greet me at the time of meal and asked me to change the rice. Thank you very much. It is a place I want to go again.

This was my first time visiting Minamiizu, and a friend recommended this hotel – it truly lived up to expectations! The accommodations were great, and the food was delicious. My only complaint is regarding the shuttle service. The day before check-in, I specifically asked about pickup details through Trip.com customer service. The hotel only sent a text message with the pickup time, but not the location. I assumed, like most hotels, that it would pick up in front of the JR station. To my surprise, I waited from 2 PM to 3 PM and saw no sign of the hotel bus. I started to feel something was wrong and checked Trip.com, where I saw a guest comment mentioning that after 3:10 PM, there would be no more pickups. Panicked, I immediately called the hotel. That's when I learned the hotel bus has a specific waiting point, around the corner, to the right of the JR station (and then to the right again). If this isn't communicated beforehand, and there are no signs at the station, it's impossible for guests to know where to wait. Therefore, I strongly suggest the hotel standardize its pickup service by clearly stating both the pickup time and location in advance. Both pieces of information are essential!

I chose it with the taste of the building and the bath. Qiufenglu の Thousand People Fenglu が しみでお Fenglu Sanambi にする is に Subo まり Subo でした. The 1000-person bath was a men's bath and a mixed bath, so it was quite a hurdle for women. I'm glad to have a female time zone if possible. The rental bath was also a very satisfying hot spring with 3 baths according to temperature. Women use wind Lu も thousands of people wind Luに negative けず inferior らず big きな wind Luなので very しめました. I'm glad I could go to the bath many times because I can rent a bath towel. The room was very enjoyable every time I went back and forth in the room at the end of the maze-like passage. It was a very nice inn.

🚪【Exquisite Space】Small but perfectly formed! Each capsule is thoughtfully designed, featuring a built-in smart panel to adjust lighting, air conditioning, and alarm clock. It even has its own power outlet and folding table! The mattresses are perfectly firm, and the soundproof curtains instantly create a private world, ensuring you're undisturbed. 🚿【Thoughtful Facilities】The common areas are a delightful surprise! 24-hour hot water showers are equipped with premium toiletries, and the vanity even has a Dyson hairdryer! The lockers have built-in combination locks, so you can store even a lot of luggage with peace of mind. Even more surprisingly, the lounge area offers complimentary tea, coffee, and books—the atmosphere is incredibly relaxing!

Amazing place to stay,aesthetic view and a great amazing dinner and breakfast ambience. I choose and booked the private villa with pool and which is good,I enjoyed the dinner foods they served us,so classy and elegant presentation. So I ordered the bottle of botega champagne which is fit for the foods they offered. Lovely it was and amazing wonderful evening. After we had a night pool with my partner and we bring our own foods and drinks champagne for the long night to celebrate our stay. I’m very satisfied for my stay at this place. Staff was really nice and good at their service. Perfect 👌 I love to came back again soon… Thank you so much 🤞🏻❣️

The overall environment is nice, with a sea view. However, since it's off-season, some bar singers aren't working. Driving here is a good option, but taking the bus is inconvenient, with buses running every hour. I didn't realize when booking that the room was for one person only. When checking out, because we were two people, the hotel asked me to pay an additional 800 RMB. They didn't mention the extra fee at check-in... The service experience wasn't very good. I certainly didn't notice this small detail, so please be aware of it when booking.

We chose a room with an ocean view. For dinner, we added an all-you-can-drink option and enjoyed salad, yakiniku, seafood, crab, and sushi 🍣. There were also a huge variety of desserts, and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. For breakfast, there was a wide selection of dried fish and sushi 🍣. We were very satisfied with the food! The bath was... well... but We would definitely like to stay here again!

I stayed during the Obon holidays, so it cost almost 40,000 yen per night, but the room was very clean and I was able to use the family bath for free, which was great. I only stayed overnight, so I don't know about the food, but you can't leave the hotel after midnight. I think it's a good hotel if you can stay for around 20,000 yen.
