3-Star Hotels in Atami

Sanpeiso was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. The ryokan beautifully preserves the atmosphere of traditional Japan while offering excellent comfort and hospitality. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel genuinely welcome and took great care of every detail throughout our stay. The room was spacious, spotless, and overlooked a peaceful garden, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. The onsen was exceptional — the hot spring water felt wonderful after a day of sightseeing, and the entire bathing area was quiet and beautifully maintained. Both dinner and breakfast were served in traditional Japanese style and were outstanding. Every dish was carefully prepared, beautifully presented, and showcased seasonal ingredients. It felt like a true cultural experience rather than simply a meal. What impressed us most was the authentic character of the ryokan. Unlike many modernized properties, Sanpeiso retains the charm and elegance of a classic Japanese inn. The combination of attentive service, excellent cuisine, serene surroundings, and high-quality hot springs made our stay unforgettable. If you are looking for an authentic ryokan experience in Atami, I highly recommend Sanpeiso. We would gladly return on our next visit to Japan.

Hotel staff are very patient and helpful in ginving guidance on the means of transportation to different tourist spots! Restaurant staff are very friendly too! The private bath in my room is excellent, I can enjoy both the day and night views while bathing in the hot spring in my room!

Overall, it could be rated excellent as a local ryokan but may not be ready for international clients. It has won Rakuten bronze award 2023. I am particular about smoking and the non smoking room was full of smoky smell. Also surprised that I have to set up my own tatami bed etc. Staff dependent on google translate but stranded when there's no WiFi. They could have translated common phrases in text. Nice garden.

I went to Atami to see the fireworks conference for one night. The transportation is convenient. There are convenience stores and bistros around. Don't worry about it at night. As a peace room experience is good, there are basically no other customers in the open air, very relaxing. The boss was very polite and worried that we could not eat dinner and recommended many restaurants. I was afraid that we were going in the wrong direction. There were English-speaking service staff in the store and they were enthusiastic.

Not the most convenient location to the JR station, but there is a shuttle, which is good. A relax 10 mins walk from the hotel to the seaside. The hotel buffet is fair, but the environment is nice and comfortable. We hv 3 ppl, the room is big and super comfortable

Facilities: A bit old, probably been around for a while. Separate wet and dry areas, large public bath, spacious rooms, and the beach is just across the street with a beautiful, expansive sea view. A convenience store is a three-minute walk away. Overall, it's quite good, although the street noise might be a bit bothersome. Service: I booked a room with two meals included, and the hotel gave me a small gift for booking. I initially went to the main building, but the receptionist helped me arrange a car to take me to the annex. I didn't eat sashimi, and after communicating with the hotel, they helped me switch to cooked food. The two meals were quite plentiful and not cheap according to the menu, but it only added less than 100 yen to the room price. If you want to try Japanese cuisine, I recommend booking a room with meals included.

It can be seen that there are hotels that are old, and the facilities are relatively old. Like door keys, switches, sockets, and toilets, these look like the standard of a domestic 3-star hotel more than ten years ago. Because it is related to the beach, the room is a damp musty smell as soon as it enters, but there is a purifier in the room. It is not easy to book a room on the night of the fireworks conference, although the price may have doubled 3 times compared to the usual price. The room rate includes 2 large and 1 small, one berth and two meals, and 3 people have made the bed and put toiletries. Breakfast and dinner are buffets. It is best to make an appointment with the hotel in advance for dinner. We don’t know. We went to the scene and were told that there was a second 20 o’clock. Fortunately, our driver sister and the front desk softly grinded hard and said that we were going to the beach to see the fire. We were transferred to the first session at 18:30. Although the quality of the buffet is not much, it tastes very good, especially fried shrimp, egg fried rice, steak. Soft drinks and beer are also free, and the meal time is 70 minutes. After dinner, there are two roads from the hotel to the hydrophilic park google map, one passing through Atami Ginza, there are many people and cars and shops to walk slowly. If you want to feel lively, you can go here. We chose a path with steps along the river. It is not tired to go downhill to the beach. It takes about 12 or 3 minutes to get to the hydrophilic park. It is just right to see the fireworks here. If you don't want to go to the beach, there is also a terrace on the 5th floor of the hotel (you can see a sign on the same day), but it will be blocked by the front building. Be optimistic about the fire back to the hotel, you can also go to the large bathhouse on the 2nd floor to take a bath and soak in the hot springs, comfortable. The latest admission time for breakfast the next day is 9 o'clock.

I originally planned to go from Shimizu to Nagano, but later I felt that the journey was too tiring so I booked this hotel temporarily. The number of reviews is actually not usually considered by me. I was quite hesitant to make the bed myself after seeing the reviews about the taste. But considering the price and room size of Atami Hotel, I still think this hotel is good value for money. Actual stay experience: The sanitary conditions are in line with the expectations of Japanese hotels and are quite clean. In terms of transportation, it is a bit inconvenient. It is not far from the station, but because of the characteristics of Atami as a mountain city, it is very inconvenient to drag suitcases in the hotel south of Atami. I was exhausted with two suitcases on the first day, especially when I was in a hurry. The facilities are indeed old, but it's just like that after getting used to it. The small TV is a problem, but moving the table over, it's not bad for the family to watch TV at night. It's a bit troublesome to make the bed yourself, but it's also fun, and it's relatively easy to put on the quilt. In terms of service, the money I needed to pay was calculated incorrectly at the beginning, and I spent a lot of time at the front desk, and the attitude of the aunt with glasses was not particularly friendly, which is a minus point. Hot springs are a big plus. Self-service free booking is very convenient. You can scan the QR code to see where there are vacancies and go directly. If it is a day-return hot spring, the booking is very expensive. Overall, it is a good stay experience. It is like the Japanese apartment in Japanese dramas. The space is also open, and there is a microwave and refrigerator. It is worth recommending.

The hotel is quite far from Atami Station; walking involves continuous uphill climbing, and taking the shortcut involves climbing a long flight of stairs, making it inconvenient for carrying luggage. A taxi ride of about 1 kilometer costs a starting fare of 680 yen. The hotel offers a free shuttle service in the morning and afternoon. The room balcony offers a sea view, though there are electrical wires providing some shade. The hotel offers free onsen (hot spring), and charges for ping pong, mahjong, and karaoke. This time I stayed in a tatami room; the room had a toilet, but the bathroom was a shared one, connected to the onsen.

I stayed on the day of the Atami Fireworks Festival. Since the non-smoking room was full, it was a smoking room, so the smell of cigarettes in the room and air conditioner was strong. Also, the corridor was quite smelly because the room immediately after getting off the elevator was a smoking area. The hotel until now was okay without worrying about non-smoking rooms, but I thought I would be careful from now on.
