In my previous Review, I wrote, “The bath is so spacious—I wish I’d brought bath salts,” and this time bath salts had been added to the amenities, which made it incredibly relaxing (lol). When I made the Reservation, I hadn’t really noticed, but the Plan included a free-flow service during afternoon café time, which was quietly very helpful. After sightseeing, we came back to the Hotel tired from walking and were able to enjoy tea for about an hour before heading out for dinner—such a nice refresh for a mother-and-daughter trip. The breakfast buffet had a wide selection, including Hiroshima specialties like conger eel rice, seafood teppanyaki, and even roast beef—very satisfying. All of the restaurant staff were friendly; if you stay here, getting breakfast included and skipping lunch might be the way to go (lol).

This was my first stay. The welcome drink included alcohol, and it made a fantastic first impression. After checking in at the compact yet open and airy lobby, I headed to my room. It was efficiently laid out, spotless, and so well designed that it felt like my home had been upgraded. The semi-open-air hinoki bath smelled wonderful, the water temperature was easy to adjust, and I was able to relax fully at just the right temperature. The amenities were excellent, and I was especially happy to try a Kinujyo hair dryer for the first time. Dinner was a creative kaiseki course and truly outstanding. The Inaho dish had an addictive flavor, the apple gratin was delicious, and the hamo (pike conger) and duck dobin-mushi was exceptional. They kindly made rice balls from the matsutake rice I couldn’t finish, and even the late-night inari sushi snack was delicious—everything felt thoughtfully prepared with no shortcuts. The clam soup at breakfast was so good that I asked for seconds. I also appreciated that service at both dinner and breakfast was attentive yet unobtrusive—not overly pushy—which can be hard to balance. Check-out being at 12:00 allowed me to enjoy the hot spring again after breakfast. I had a wonderfully relaxing time enjoying both the hot springs and the meals, and I would love to stay again.

The Room had a beautiful Tokyo Skytree view. The bathroom was separate from the toilet, so I could relax comfortably. Breakfast was delicious, especially the orange juice and omelet. Still, I was surprised that there were so many foreign guests.

This is my favorite Accommodation, and I’ve returned many times. This time, I stayed in the Geihinkan “Hanafuki” Room and was truly soothed by the spacious, luxurious setting. The view of the waterfall flowing right in front of the Room was especially memorable, and I could relax at a leisurely pace while listening to the gentle sound of the river. The double-sink vanity was very convenient, and it was also a great touch that I could step straight from the bedroom to the private open-air Onsen bath in the Room. Being able to enjoy Onsen whenever I like without any hesitation feels wonderfully indulgent. Because the bedroom and dining Room are separate, there’s no need for futon setup or takedown, so I could stay comfortable and relaxed throughout my entire stay. Meals were served in-room, which I loved—hot dishes arrived piping hot, and cold dishes stayed perfectly chilled, letting me enjoy everything at its freshest. The seasonal tableware and menu were delicious and beautifully presented, making each meal something I look forward to every time. The tea prepared during meals was also excellent and truly calming. I also appreciated all the complimentary services—from free drinks in the in-room refrigerator to drinks and ice cream in the lounge. It was especially nice that towels are provided at the large public bath so there’s no need to bring them from your Room. The large public bath itself is very comfortable, with thoughtful touches everywhere. Above all, every staff member offers such warm hospitality and attentive care. Once again, this stay left me feeling deeply refreshed as I enjoyed a comfortable yet luxurious time. It’s an Accommodation that makes me think “I want to come back” every single visit—I truly love it. I will definitely return again.

We stayed in late August as a family of four (with a toddler and an infant). We have traveled to Izu many times and stayed at various Accommodations, but considering the price, this Accommodation was the best in Izu! Just as advertised, the entire building was tatami-matted—and we were surprised to find tatami even inside the bath area. Everything was spotless and very clean, and our children were happy to be able to walk around barefoot. The staff were also exceptionally courteous, and it was refreshing these days that everyone was Japanese. The food was delicious with a wide variety of dishes—we kept saying as a couple, “There’s more!?” From the Room we could see the ocean, and it’s also within walking distance. There is a foot-washing area and towels provided, so we were able to enjoy the sea both while staying in the Room and when going outside. It was a wonderful Accommodation we’d love to stay at again. We will definitely return!

We stayed here after hearing the pork cutlet ramen was delicious, and my wife and I enjoyed it for lunch. The pork cutlet ramen was excellent, and the beef bowl we ordered as well was also outstanding. We booked the lounge plan, and after lunch we visited the lounge; both the drinks and light meals were wonderful and very tasty. The Japanese set breakfast had a wide variety of dishes and was delicious as well. The service, meals, room, and view were all superb, and my wife immediately asked to come again. It’s about an hour door-to-door from our home, but we will definitely visit again to enjoy a special getaway. Thank you very much.

I was able to visit again for the first time in 20 years. From the warm welcome onward, the hospitality was outstanding. The food was just as delicious as ever, and I truly hope this authentic Japanese hospitality will continue for many years to come. I would love to visit again soon. Thank you for such a wonderful and happy time.

The welcome herbal water drink was delicious—absolutely amazing!! This is truly a tropical paradise, a Resort Hotel. The view from the ocean-view Room was breathtaking—it really felt like “time, please stop!” As we left the Hotel from the parking lot, a handsome front desk staff member waved goodbye, which left a wonderful impression. It was an excellent Hotel that made us want to come back.

I stayed at Dormy Inn Aomori on a solo trip. I often use a Business Hotel when traveling alone, but this Hotel was far too wonderful to be called just a Business Hotel. First, the breakfast: a buffet with many local dishes—I ended up eating more than I should in the morning. Next, the baths: the water was very pleasant, and there is also an open-air bath and a sauna. I was disappointed to see a foreign parent and child soaking and throwing towels in the tub, but aside from that I could relax at ease. It was also fun to enjoy the complimentary ice cream while looking at the night view after bathing, and the late-night soba service was great as well. With smaller noodles and a light broth, even an elderly woman like me could enjoy it. It’s about a 7-minute walk from Aomori Station. The route is straight so it’s easy not to get lost, and it was convenient that there is an airport bus stop right in front of the Hotel. The male front desk staff were also very kind. Overall I was extremely satisfied except for a faint smell of cigarette smoke in my Room. I will definitely visit again. Thank you very much.

I made a Reservation the day before my stay after reading the reviews. It was No Meals Included, but the service and atmosphere were great—this was a wonderful Hotel just as described. There is parking, and it’s fairly close to the station, so I recommend it. If I have the chance to visit again, I will definitely stay here. To all the staff, thank you for providing such a comfortable space.

I stayed with my mother, and we were satisfied with everything! The Room was spacious, bright, and spotless—almost too much for just the two of us. The bath was the perfect size and temperature. Bathing while listening to the morning birdsong was truly special. The meals I had been looking forward to most exceeded my expectations. Each dish was carefully prepared and delicious, and with the lovely atmosphere of the dining area, we had a wonderful time. We didn’t often see the Ryokan staff rushing around, but perhaps that’s part of their consideration so guests can relax in peace and quiet. If so, it’s impressively thorough. My mother especially loved it (as did I), so we would definitely like to stay again!

I stayed here for two nights. On the first night, I was on a lower floor and was disappointed that there were no amenities such as skincare products. It was nice that they provided water. On the second night, I stayed on an upper floor. This is my Review of the upper floor. Everything on the upper floor was excellent, so I have nothing to complain about. There was also a coffee machine, and the slippers were high-quality and reusable many times, and the amenities were properly provided. They also had ReFa body soap and shampoo. I hope this helps as a reference.

The Accommodation is still quite new and filled with a pleasant fragrance. You can choose your favorite scented diffuser and bring it with you. In the lounge, we enjoyed a variety of drinks and snacks. Dinner at the counter featuring Miyazaki beef teppanyaki was wonderful, and we enjoyed chatting with the chef while dining. For breakfast, we could also add a few extra menu items, which made it even more enjoyable. Everything was excellent—the in-house library, gym, in-room jacuzzi, complimentary drinks and rice crackers in the refrigerator, and the staff’s kind and attentive service. We would definitely like to stay again if we visit Miyazaki in the future.

The open-air bath in the guest room while looking out at the sea was amazing. The weather was neither hot nor cold for the season, so I could soak in the Onsen and then enjoy the sea breeze. It felt like I spent half of my stay soaking in the Onsen. The meals were, of course, delicious as well. The Accommodation arranged a sightseeing taxi for us, and we were able to fully enjoy Iki. The service was excellent, and we had a very pleasant stay. Thank you very much.

I’d heard the rumors, and they were true: the setting, hospitality, and cuisine were all outstanding. I’ve always felt that the Tokugawa family helped shape the foundations of Japanese culture, and Shiraisi-ya is said to be an even older establishment with over 300 years of history. I felt as though I experienced the secret to its longevity firsthand. I’d gladly recommend it to friends.

The room was made of solid wood, creating a very calming atmosphere. The meals were delicious, featuring plenty of local ingredients from Nasu. Breakfast—including the bread—was also excellent, and I ended up eating more than I intended. The staff were wonderful, and I was impressed by their fluent English. It was a truly memorable stay.

It would be perfect if you could provide amenities such as facial toner. I was so tired that I went to sleep as I was, expecting my skin to get dry.

The front desk staff provided very thorough explanations, and it made me feel glad I chose to stay here. If I have the chance to visit again, I would love to stay here again.

The views, the people, the space, and the food—everything was exceptional. I felt instantly healed rather than gradually. The sunset was beautiful, and every staff member’s hospitality was heartfelt. The cooking that brought out the best in each ingredient was outstanding, as were the delicious broths. Not only dinner but also breakfast was truly elaborate and carefully prepared. I could go on forever, but in short, it was wonderful. Thank you very much.

This was my second stay, and once again I chose the Plan with dinner and breakfast. As before, the meals were simply outstanding. With a full-course meal these days, I sometimes feel full before reaching the main dish, but here I was able to enjoy everything through dessert. There are many dishes, yet it all feels wonderfully light. Not only is the food delicious, but it also leaves you feeling comfortable afterward, allowing you to make the most of your evening—an extremely satisfying course. Breakfast was just as great as ever, and I was happy to have the freshly baked croissants again. Thank you very much.
