Hotels Near Kotoge in Izu

This used to be our favorite summer spot. We'd return at least once a year, for perhaps 4-5 years in a row. However, we hadn't been back for quite a long time. This is what I learned on our most recent visit: The hotel room (I think we had a ”Hollywood Standard Twin) was quite spacious. The beds were large and comfortable, and there is a nice-sized balcony with a generous ocean view. I see some other reviews on Tripadvisor calling the rooms ”old and smelly” -- this has never, ever been my experience, not once. The room seemed exactly as it was over 10 years ago, but that's fine. The colors are soft, muted ”beach” colors and we were very comfortable. On our first night we ate at the ”Melesea” restaurant, which serves French cuisine. We chose the ”Demi portion” course, which was about 9,000 yen (about $62USD with today's exchange rate). We chose it because it wasn't as high priced as some of the other course meals and the portion sizes sounded right for us. There is no question that the ”Demi portion” course was one of the best I've ever had in my life. The chef (Mr. Ohki) is obviously a professional who really understands how to bring out the delicate flavors of any dish, and he is a master at preparing sauces. Everything that was served was outstanding. No, we didn't want to pay that much money per person, but ultimately we made the right choice. We both were extremely impressed. The above two things, plus generally good weather, added up to a good experience. Here, though, are things that you should be aware of: This is essentially a family hotel. That means if you are coming here for peace and quiet, and you make the mistake of coming on a weekend or a national holiday, you can expect lots of screaming children running with abandon down the hallways and fussing in the restaurants and everywhere else. Japanese parents tend to indulge and spoil their little ones. And forget about using the pool, since that's where parents will be staked out the first thing in the morning. If you are a parent, you might find this to be the perfect hotel. If you aren't, and you do not enjoy the boundless energy and noise of children, you will be sorry you booked a room here. So, think carefully about the dates you arrive and leave. As for prices: Although you can get a ”Tokyu Hotel” member card, and although you can find online promotions, the way the hotel makes its money is through its dinners. You are going to pay a lot for them, although there is effort put into them, so, you do feel you are having an ”experience.” But they do not come cheaply. Also, if you don't book your room with breakfast, expect to pay ¥2900 for a ”buffet breakfast.” If you are Japanese, you will love this breakfast; if not, you will find an adequate selection of items for a Western breakfast. But what if you want to go ”out to eat” at night, instead of paying between 10-20,000 yen for a meal? Good luck. Unless you have your own car (and I'd say about 90% of the customers

The person in charge of the trip was very kind and I have fond memories of my trip. It was a birthday celebration, and I was very happy to see how they livened up the occasion and showed their careful attention. Both dinner and breakfast were very voluminous and I was satisfied with both the presentation and the taste, although I think it varies depending on the plan. As for the hot springs, I thought that everyone from children to adults could take a dip in them with peace of mind because the temperature was right and the skin was in good condition after the bath. I was satisfied with everything about the room, hot springs, food, and customer service.

This is a Ryokan which has a very good reputation. For me, the stay is perfect and I will recommend this Ryokan. Even though you cannot value the location of the Ryokan, as Shuzenji is a very small place. The Rokan is right opposite to the bamboo forest, which is suitable for my personal view. However, you need to notice as it is close to the bamboo forest and near to the river, you will find many bugs here, especially at night. Don't forget to close the windows and doors. When you first arrive at the Ryokan, don't forget to take a photo of the board at the door as you can find your name on it. If you have a name that can be written in Kanji, you can even email them to let them write in Kanji. The Ryokan itself is large but the staff are very nice and friendly. They will introduce the whole Ryokan to you when you arrive and lead you to the most places so that you can find out the several Onsens and amenities' locations. I will recommend you to discover the Ryokan when you are free. The Ryokan even provides guided tours as most of the buildings here are cultural heritage. Moreover, the Ryokan will even provide umbrellas, so no worries when it rains. The English of Ryokan staff is not ideal, as you might be able to guess. If you can speak Japanese, I will recommend you to use Japanese. The food quality is very good and they will sometimes provide some very interesting dishes. For example, the lobster shell tempura, which shocked me at first but tasted not bad. I have mentioned Onsen before but there are a few more you might need to know. Since the hotel has a long history, you might need to take a shower in your room first then go to the Onsen in different places as there are no shower places in Onsen like other Ryokan. However, the onsen is very good so I will recommend you try as many as you can. Overall, the Rokan is expensive but absolutely worthy. I will recommend you to try it when you are free.

　The first time we chose the back of the inn at Shuzenji Onsen, it was the Yukoro Kikuya. It is located almost in the center of the hot spring town of Shuzenji, and if you follow the prefectural road that runs through the northern bank of the Katsura River, there is an entrance to the inn, and there is a parking lot next to it. From the entrance to the main body of the inn, you will pass over the lobby built on the bridge over the Katsura River. Check-in is done on the sofa in this lobby, so you can see the Katsura River from just above the river. As the name ”Yu Corridor” suggests, many hot water areas are connected by long corridors. From those hot springs, I could see the beautiful garden of the inn. The dinner I was looking forward to was called ”Quasi Sakana Kaiseki”, and I was able to choose some dishes as I liked. We were two of us, and we dared to eat different dishes, but each dish looked beautiful and very delicious. Our accommodation plan was a plan to have draft beer free in the private lounge, so we had draft beer in the hot spring and relaxed.

[Bedroom] Smells of cigarettes. There is no air purifier. (No rental) I sprinkled it because there was Febreze, but I couldn't erase the smell of cigarettes. The refrigerator did not get cold and the beer I bought became lukewarm. The bedside could only charge USB. (Power is required to charge the smartphone at high speed) I didn't notice that the glass cup was in the drawer. The glass cup was dirty and I didn't feel like using it. [Toilet] With washlet. Clean. [Washing basin] It's small enough to have no place to put things, but it's beautiful. There is no towel to wipe your hands. Only paper towels are left. Hair dryer is good in Saronia. [Room bath] It was old and moldy. [Japanese-style room] It didn't smell like cigarettes as much as the bedroom. There was no pen or memo paper. The teacup was thin, so when I poured hot water, it became hot and I couldn't hold it. The comforter looked fluffy and nice. The actress mirror was good! [Large bath] Slippers were devised so that they would not mix with others. It was good that there was an open-air bath, a hot bath, a hot water, and a hot water! [Guest room] It was quiet without the sound of the next room, the sound of the upper room, and the sound of people walking in the corridor. [Cooking] It was delicious, but there was no particular personality. [Yukata] The guideline for choosing the size was written in height, but the width was too large, so I changed it to one size smaller. I thought it would be kind if there was a guideline for the system. [Amenity] I wish I had something like a health towel to wash my body. When I saw it, the hair band was gone. I wish I had a bunscrap (hair clip). [Transfer bus] It was convenient and helpful. [Location] It was convenient because Max Value, which is open 24 hours a day, was next door. [General review] It was good because the age group of customers was high and the atmosphere was calm. The Japanese style room was divided into Western style rooms and Japanese style rooms, so I thought it could be used for families with puberty children and families of two generations.

This is Izu Changgang Hot Spring Township, located on the Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture. The hot spring water comes from Gunai soup, and it is one of the famous three soups (walking soup, Xiushan Temple) on the Izu Peninsula. Along the way, there are quiet rural low houses, very flavorful, the car after turning into a small road, you will see the ”stone のや” house number, along the slope, and arrive at the hotel. As soon as we entered the hotel, the staff asked us to choose Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yukata Yu The hotel's Lobby has a wide reading space and a small self-service Café, which can be borrowed from the room to read, but first register with the staff. After passing through the Lobby, enter the hotel's garden. There is a foot soup place where guests can relax and soak their feet while enjoying the scenery. There are towels and drinks next to it, which is very intimate. The staff then led us to the room. Shi のや Ishinoya is a traditional Japanese-style hotel built in 1965. The biggest feature is the magnificent rocky landscape garden with 6,000 square meters. The rooms are also built in the style of ”number of houses” in the 1940s, like resort resorts. But pure Japanese classical style. We stayed in the most gorgeous room in the museum this time, ”Samo” Satsuma, independent villa-style building, with an area of 91.72 square meters, a bedroom ＋ and a room (Japanese-style room) ＋ a private rock open-air hot spring, like the design of a natural environment like a large bath. You can soak in such a series of hot spring spaces in your own room, very freehand! The room is full of space. After a wide lying corridor, I arrived at the bathroom. The bathroom is fully equipped and is a high-end bathing pattern. After opening the door, it is an extremely wide lying shower and bathing area. This sense of space cannot be found in Western-style hotels. Opposite is a separate toilet space, which is also quite a distance. The refrigerator is also in the corridor. We are afraid of freezing, so we take 3 water out of the refrigerator first. After showering the hot spring, we changed the bathrobe and walked outside. Seeing the layout of the natural environment here, this is the thinking of the Japanese-style hot spring hotel. Let the guests stay in the hotel and have different places to carry out different activities. It is to enjoy the flowers, stones and trees here. In addition to the bathrobe, there is also a thick coat, the weather is cold. Pavilions, playing everywhere, taking pictures everywhere, unknowingly arrived at dinner time. We also booked kaiseki dinners provided by the hotel, the restaurant is full of box rooms, because the hotel also has only 22 rooms, all guests are VIP VIPs. Prepaid fore-food and fish sashimi are ready for the oyster. Sashimi wife has Benji tuna, Hanba, Qingli squid, and Izu's famous Wasabi mountain anemone. The exquisite Menu menu also has the seal of Shi のや cuisine Nagasaki Daya. The cup mat is also very chic. 𩽾𩾌 fish liver seafood crab cover, with Yuanbei, ginkgo, chestnut, essence seafood juice, very delicious. Low temperature slow cooking and cattle, the pots are full of art, slow cooking and beef quality are particularly fresh. Then there is Sukiyaki Sukiyaki. After eating the cow, this time I use duck to make Sukiyaki, but I always feel that the large beef slices are the best fit, and can hang a lot of custard. The boiled thing is the real steamed wine, that is, the steamed salmon, which is also very tender and sweet. Then there is noodle soup, some pickles for 𩠌 rice. This rice is very special. It is a Japanese specialty mini potato rice. It is really the first time I have seen it. In the end, the desserts are also rich in layers. The clerk said that he would like a pen to the end. The bottom layer is some like red bean paste. After dinner, I went to the garden at night, and I had to walk carefully step by step. The atmosphere at night was a bit different. I went to the cafe. In addition to coffee tea, there were some snacks and snacks, which were free. The souvenir boutique at the hotel Lobby is also very attractive. Izu's life index is low, there are many authentic specialties, and the price/performance ratio of buying hand letters is very high. Visit the Japanese brocade in the fish pond again, and swim slowly at night. There is also a map of the hotel at night, which can see the entire layout distribution. Along the stone level, back to my room, the romantic atmosphere here seems to be back to ancient times, antique, which is why I like it very much, and because the location is not in the popular tourist area, the price is not expensive, but it is very terroir. Our room, ”Samo,” the door key is a very primitive physical key. The second breakfast, there are seaweed and hot rice, there are salad, cold noodles, noodle soup, Japanese breakfast, this time not a fish, but a whole fish, burned well, the meat is fresh and sweet, but there is always bone not my favorite, the squid stains are very good, shrimp rice and white rice fish can be salty. 5 minutes walk from the hotel, you can reach the entrance of Izu の National Panorama Park Panorama Park , take the cable car to climb the mountain, the whole journey is about 8 minutes, up to the top of Gecheng Mountain 452 meters, the observation deck is endless, and the sky is clear. You can overlook the scenery of Mount Fuji and the Lihewan.

I was able to stay very cheaply with a limited plan in the prefecture. Unfortunately, we didn't welcome you when we arrived. I was just looking at this, and I was mechanically in the lounge, and the woman in charge was with a beginner mark, and I thought, well, it wasn't so crowded, so I thought, well, I should have someone to follow. The bee was beautiful and not so dark as to say, and it was comfortable. The room was ５ floor, the front of the room was a warehouse, the door opened, and the sheets used were not released. Check-in time was over. The room was comfortable, but compared to the picture, the ageing deterioration was progressing. The shape of the sofa was １ below the rank. The rental bath uses haku and tate, Especially Haku was great. Is it okay to use tate １ degrees? It's a young direction. The public bath was also good with the atmosphere. Dinner is Kaiseki ”calendar” Koyomi, no luxury ingredients, but it was very delicious with a hard dish. The amount of drinks was conscientious. However, There were many families who needed small children at the end of the seat, and I was not calm. I strongly think that the family with children and the adult only accommodation group should be divided as much as possible. In the morning, From the early morning, the noise and the noise from the warehouse, it's a violation of the rules, and honestly, I came to my head. Breakfast was disappointing at the same seat as dinner. The breakfast itself was delicious This hotel, Cospa is good, the food is delicious, the bath is enjoyed, and it is very good, but the customer service, especially the female front desk, is very dry and stay I couldn't enjoy it Finally, only the young handsome man at check-out was lucky to have been sent out in the rain with a very pleasant customer service. Thank you.

After a very long day in the saddle, the reception team delivered a very warm welcome upon arrival with aching limps soothed by the in-house onsen As the hotel caters for cyclists, there are bike maintenance areas with staff on hand to help out guests when needed. The in-room breakfast was plentiful, with the room & bathroom both clean & spacious. The hotel caters for cyclists & is perfectly positioned at the top of peninsular so that cyclists have the opportunity to enjoy parts of the peninsular or take up the 200k challenge of riding around the coast. I would highly recommend the hotel.

I stayed in the hotel for two consecutive days, but because of the fireworks festival, I couldn't book the same room type, one with three beds and one with double beds. On the day of check-in, I asked if I could arrange the same room type. As expected, I couldn't, so I had to go to 11 first Click to check out the previous room, pick up all your luggage, and then come back to check in the next room at 3 pm. The hotel cannot store luggage. Fortunately, I have a car, so I don't have the problem of storing luggage. If I don't have a car, it would be really troublesome to have to carry my luggage with me. The hardware in the hotel room is very good. The only problem is that the shampoo was mistakenly mixed with body soap (see picture). Fortunately, I have shampoo. Otherwise, in this hotel without front desk service, no one can help with this problem. The day I checked into this room was the day of the fireworks festival. Someone told me that the hotel has a designated location for guests to enjoy the fireworks. However, when I asked the operator when I checked in, they said they didn't know and asked me to ask the hotel myself or email the hotel. The fireworks display is over and I haven’t received a reply yet. Fortunately, when we went to the beach early to find a place to watch the fireworks, we caught a glimpse of someone holding the seat cushions distributed by the conference, and we were able to enter the viewing position designated for hotel guests. We remembered that the number of seat cushions distributed by the conference was in our room, and we hurried back to the room. We retrieved it and successfully enjoyed the fireworks display from a more frontal position. In fact, it can be seen from hotel rooms or hotel rooftops, but it's not as good as the location on the beach.

We stayed ２ with 6 adults and 1 infant. The breakfast buffet without dinner was also rich and delicious. The room is also easy to use in Japanese and Western rooms, and the large communal bath with a good view liked the jet bus with a good hot water sound. However, it is a weekend, and the slope of ５ to the municipal parking lot next to Lawson is a lot of traffic, so it is necessary to be careful. When I checked out, I was able to drive to the parking lot next to the hotel, so it was easy. It was a hot spring trip that was originally planned 々, but I was lucky to be able to use the support money due to the hotel's measures. ５ A child of the age was delighted with fireworks!
