Booked this as a side trip from Osaka to escape the city and have some quiet time.
Set in a tiny village in the middle of a mountainous & forested area alongside a beautiful river with tons of waterfalls, very picturesque and perfect for walking around.
The hotel itself is immaculate with great amenities including large bathing areas.
Food was incredible and service was top-notch with staff that were always friendly, helpful and eager to please.
Would definitely recommend to anyone wanting an authentic Japanese-style onsen hotel in a tranquil setting.
It was the second time to use it, but the facilities are wide 々 and comfortable. The hot springs were comfortable. Some of the products at the shop were not priced, and when I asked the front desk, they looked it up, but it seemed that I didn't know when I asked, ”Is it individual packaging?” I pushed it from under the box and said, ”It's individual packaging.” and so on.
The restaurant was very delicious (IgA beef) and I was happy that the price was cheap, but the man in black clothes who guided me felt very good, but he was a foreigner and didn't seem to have any knowledge of cooking. Japanese locals explained in detail about the sake set. I want to use it again because the cospa can be relaxed well.
The hotel offers a free shuttle bus to and from Toba Station every hour and half hour, though the last one departs at 6:00 PM. The Harbor rooms offer beautiful sunrise views every morning, and the hot spring, with its unique pearl powder, is quite special.
Facilities: in line with the ryokan, very good and comprehensive
Hygienic: spotless, super clean
Environment: See the picture for details, this scenery is worth it
Service: This is the best place, the service is very, very good, all places can be implemented in place
Facilities: An old hotel, very large, the room is clean, and the bed is comfortable; the hotel has many hot springs, including a public hot spring, several private hot springs (really very small and dark), foot baths, etc. in the hot spring village, which has a good atmosphere. I personally like the public hot springs; there is a welcome sign at the door when I first arrived at the hotel.
Meals: Breakfast and dinner are buffets, with seats for sea views, the taste is OK, and there is a fish dismemberment show at a fixed time.
Service: Generally good, quite enthusiastic and patient.
I stayed here for one night during a trip to Ise-Shima.
Since I was traveling by train, I used the free shuttle service to Kintetsu Ugata Station. The departure was on time and the service was very courteous.
[Good Points]
① Large public bath (open until midnight, morning bath available from 5am. Free popsicles after bathing, choose from four flavors)
② Ample amenities (POLA lotion, milky lotion, razors, toothbrushes, combs, etc. - pick up what you need from the counter in front of the reception desk)
③ Free room wear (can be worn anywhere in the hotel)
④ Delicious and substantial breakfast (enjoy home-cooked meals made with local ingredients. In addition to specialty dishes like Ise udon and tonteki, there was also curry and yakisoba. There was also a wide variety of desserts and drinks, and the yogurt and smoothies were especially delicious)
⑤ Spacious and spacious guest rooms (The interior has a unique atmosphere, and the appliances and furnishings are a bit dated, but the beds are spacious, and the value for money is excellent, especially for a night's sleep.)
⑥ The service was good (there was a free-flowing coffee machine, water dispenser, tourist information pamphlets, etc. near the reception desk. The staff was also friendly and efficient, especially during breakfast.)
[Areas for Improvement]
1. I was concerned about whether the slippers allowed to be worn inside the hotel had been disinfected. It would be reassuring if there was a sign indicating this. (I was reluctant to wear slippers directly on my feet, so I wore socks over them throughout the stay.)
2. There was a thin layer of dust on the wall above the bed (the side of the room), so it might be a good idea to wipe the wall down about once a month.
[Advice for Future Guests]
When using the large public bath, you will need to walk on carpet from the slipper area at the entrance to the changing room. If you are uncomfortable walking barefoot, it may be a good idea to wear socks or bring your own.
We checked in on Sunday and checked out on Monday, and the stay for two people, including breakfast, was less than 9,000 yen, which was a great deal.
Access is not the best, but I would definitely stay here again at this price range.
The remote hot spring travel management is suitable for self-driving tourists. The dinner is rich, the room is comfortable, the space is large, the hot spring and the room have a sea view, the most special is the morning feeding eagle experience, it is worth a try!
The open-air bath was amazing!
The changing room, shower room, and balcony
open-air bath were all connected, which was great.
The air purifier and the corners of the room were a little rough, but it wasn't too bad.
The staff were very helpful and polite when I checked in!
There were some shops open until around 10 PM, so I could go for a walk even after relaxing at the hotel!
I couldn't go this time, so I'll save it for next time. (T_T)
I was shocked that the room service I ordered was cold.
The room didn't have a microwave, which was a problem! The food was delicious!! There was also a snack and drink set that looked delicious!
Thank you so much!
The room I grabbed for the fireworks festival is not convenient in terms of transportation. The nearest one is probably JR Sangu Station (stations in the wild suburbs don’t have that kind of station). It takes 15 minutes to walk to the hotel. The way is Tianye Road. Don’t doubt it, it is more suitable for people with cars. , there is a large supermarket opposite the hotel, and next to it is a convenience store and (it seems) an Internet celebrity dessert shop. The room size is by Japanese standards, the sanitary services are also good, and there is a large bath.

GGuest UserThere should be relatively few tourists in Toba itself. It is inconvenient if the hotel is on the mountain without a car. It is estimated that there were less than 10 groups of guests staying that day. The small bath in the room is only for one person. The size of the bathtub is very small, and it looks like there is a period of time. No one is using the time

NNuonuokafeiThere is a shuttle bus at Kashikojima Station. Find the driver of the hotel bus. The suite will immediately notify the Toyota car to pick you up. It takes three to five minutes by car. After arriving at the hotel, you can enjoy the 5-star service. All rooms face the sea and the sun is shining. The facilities are high-end and complete with 100 square meters. The small refrigerator is all free, and there are Mikimoto skin care products. The lounge has a terrace with an excellent view, and the food and drinks prepared are also exquisite. The service here is perfect. I checked in on my birthday. When checking in, I was asked to choose whether the check-in was on my birthday anniversary. I didn't want to bother others to choose sightseeing. As a result, the staff of the French restaurant on the 5th floor sent greeting cards and beautiful desserts. The chef came to bless me kindly, gentle and decent. Please experience the hotel's cruise ship. 3,600 yen per person is very worthwhile. It takes 45 minutes to visit Ago Bay. The memorial hall of the G7 meeting is a few minutes away from the building next door, and the car can be sent there at any time. In addition to good facilities, this hotel can host high-level meetings. More importantly, there is a perfect service team here. Everything is great. Staying for one night is unsatisfactory. 11 is the commemoration of Yamazaki Toyoko's stay in ”White Tower” that I like. I recommend the French restaurant on the 5th floor, which has a better view and the dishes taste great. I had breakfast at the Japanese restaurant on the 4th floor, but the view was a little worse and the taste was a little salty.

AAnihaseyoTransportation: Take the Shimakaze train to Kashikojima, which takes about two and a half hours. Contact the hotel in advance for a pick-up from Kashikojima station.
The hotel does not provide airport pick-up, but can arrange car hire for guests.
Transportation is very inconvenient.
Facilities: The facilities are very good. The interior styles of the three Aman hotels in Japan are very similar, and the rooms and public areas are well-maintained.
Service: The service is very good.
Food: Due to the hotel's remote location, there are no restaurants nearby, so all meals were eaten at the hotel.
The food at the restaurant was surprisingly good (I thought it wouldn't be good).
Dinner reservations must be made in advance, as the hotel is fully booked on holidays, and the restaurant's dinner slots are also fully booked. You either have to wait until 8:30 pm or eat at the bar.
If you choose to eat dinner at the bar, you won't be able to get shabu-shabu.
The lunch menu is different; it's a simple meal, but acceptable.
The first set meal was a regular set meal, which included a beef dish with a green sauce that was super delicious; I used it to mix with rice.
The second set meal included shabu-shabu, with options for Ise lobster, Matsusaka beef, and local beef; I chose the local beef. The reddish-brown sauce in the shabu-shabu was absolutely delicious.
Activities: Chinese-speaking guides can be requested for tours of Ise.
The hotel didn't email us in advance to inform us about activities or inquire about arrangements. Many activities were unavailable upon check-in.
Summary: Aside from the inconvenient transportation and the lack of advance email communication about activities during my stay, everything was fine.

AAnonymous UserExcept for the shuttle bus to get in and out, the overall experience was very good. The room is clean and spacious, the view is excellent, looking out is relaxing. The hotel has a comfortable environment, friendly and courteous service staff, complete facilities, especially the SPA is very relaxing, breakfast options are many and delicious, very happy to eat. We stayed very peacefully and hope to come back next time and enjoy one more leisurely holiday!
GGuest UserWe stayed here as a group of four, including three adult friends and one four-year-old child. The pool can be used until 6pm on the same day and from 10am to 2pm the following day for an additional fee, and there was a jet relaxation corner in the indoor heated pool, so it was very refreshing.
The hot spring afterwards was free and fun.
