The big sell here are the beautiful views and the refreshing outdoor hot spring tubs. The hotel itself is pretty tired though and the French style food managed to be both pretentious and tasteless and super pricey. Staff are great though. Very kind and helpful. And those views are just beautiful.

Overly pleased!

What a wonderful property! The staff, in typical Japanese fashion, were incredibly kind and willing to help. No matter what I asked for, the staff member would stop and make sure I was their only focus. The room was great, the view was spectacular!! Very happy with this place, their hot springs, and facilities. Every detail was taken care of, and I highly highly recommend this hotel for your stay in Shimoda.

Seaside Long Weekend

Bedrooms were spacious. The decor was a little tired but not too perfect for family occupation! Service was good; the staff made every effort to make us feel comfortable. The breakfast buffet was excellent- it had lots of choice. Situation was good with views and access to a safe bay. It would have been nice to have longer hours than 9 to 5 at the pool.

Loved this hotel. It’s in a stunning setting that feels secluded in a beautiful bay but was just over a small hill to the city. Modern and friendly with an almost 1950s-60s resort vibe to it which we really enjoyed. The pool was excellent with vibrant well-appointed gardens surrounding the whole property. Great place to explore from, with paths, beaches and coastal walks and an easy 10-15min stroll into the town. Hiring a bike would have been a good option too. We extended our stay from 2 to 4 days after falling in love with the hotel. The restaurant was good. Recommend a meal there in the evening, there was some really good local fare, and the breakfast was a fabulous buffet with lots of options. Lots of staff who were all friendly and attentive.

Amazing view of the sea from our room!

The view from our room was breathtaking! It was possible, because the hotel is a bit remote. There’s a complimentary shuttle between the hotel and downtown station, but it’s quite a walk after hours when the shuttle stops running. Nonetheless, we would stay here again.
