Shikotsuko Onsen was very quiet, with no convenience stores or restaurants nearby, so we were able to relax peacefully. The front desk, lobby lounge, and restaurant areas felt calm, spacious, and comfortable—perhaps also because the Hotel was not fully booked that day. I have often stayed at small guesthouses and pensions recently, so it was great to experience proper Hotel-style service again, even though this was an annex of a major Hotel. Meals at a Ryokan are often more than I can finish, but here the portions were just right. The pasta in particular was excellent. I was also very satisfied with the services such as drink service at dinner, 24-hour coffee service, gelato after dinner (especially the liqueur-topped gelato, which is available for an additional fee), replenishment of towels and water after dinner, and more. It was also nice that we could use the main building’s private open-air bath at a very reasonable price. The complimentary ramune soda was delicious as well. Two points concerned me: first, the Hotel’s Reservation page stated that they would contact guests by phone or email a few days before arrival for confirmation, but we did not receive any contact. Since it also said that staying might not be possible if there is no response, I called the day before; they simply replied that my Reservation existed without any apology for the lack of notice. Second, while the large in-room jacuzzi filled quickly despite its size and was enjoyable once inside, it was difficult to get out because it is deep and high-sided. This could be dangerous for older guests; having steps or at least a non-slip step stool would make bathing much safer.

One of the world's top three sunset spots, Kushiro's Nusamai Bridge. It was a view I had long wanted to see. After carefully watching the weather, I was able to witness it under perfect conditions. Late autumn in Kushiro is too cold to wait on the bridge until sunset, so staying

I also feel that our trip to Kashiwazaki is made possible by all of this thanks to how supportive and wonderful the Hotel staff are. For breakfast this time we got lucky and enjoyed sea bream rice—an amazing meal paired with an amazing view. We were completely satisfied. While

The restroom was newly renovated and very clean. The bathwater was excellent as well. Dinner was served in a private room, while breakfast was served in a large hall with separate tables for each room; all dishes were delicious and more than enough to eat. The staff's attentivene

Every dish in the meal was outstanding—the best of any Ryokan I have stayed at. I was also surprised at how delicious the seasoning was even on the fried item we were given to take home, made from the remaining fish. The Room was clean and well kept. The staff’s service was just right, and it felt very comfortable.

The best part was the sunset view from the garden and my Room. I took a walk until sunset and enjoyed beautiful blooming roses as well as some unexpectedly photogenic spots. I then watched the sun set slowly from my Room—it was so beautiful that it moved me deeply. In my busy dai

It was evident that great care went into their preparation, with charming presentation and delightful flavors making each meal enjoyable. Spending time on our room's balcony watching sunsets or sunrises while sipping beer or freshly brewed coffee—even under cloudy skies—was truly

The hotel staff were incredibly kind and attentive, allowing me to relax completely. Dinner featured delicious dishes made with fresh local ingredients, and the shirasu rice for breakfast was exceptional. It was a clean and spacious hotel where my friend and I fully enjoyed our l

The Room was spacious, and we were able to relax comfortably. The meals were the right portion size and very delicious. Each dish was carefully prepared, with refined flavors. The eel kamameshi at dinner was especially tasty. One disappointment was that the large public bath and the open-air bath were far apart, so I couldn’t make it to the open-air bath. I appreciated being able to enjoy coffee and tea freely in the lobby. I would like to stay again.

A wonderful Accommodation perched on a mountain. Service, Onsen, meals, and views—everything deserves five stars. We truly had a lovely time. Thank you very much. The foreign staff member who assisted us was very polite and hardworking, which was another great highlight. In the confirmation call the day before, they also checked about the Shuttle Service, which is available free of charge. Although it’s in Izu Kogen, you can enjoy panoramic ocean views and escape the heat—an undiscovered gem of an Accommodation. Enjoying an Onsen while looking out at the sea from our Room was amazing, and the meals were thoughtfully prepared to appeal to younger guests as well; made with locally sourced ingredients, they were delicious and served in just the right portions. This is an Accommodation we would love to stay at again.

There were plenty of vegetables, everything felt nutritious, and I was very satisfied. The portions weren’t too large either, so I was able to finish everything. Dinner happened to be around sunset time, and when someone kindly said, “It’s just about sunset,” it helped me enjoy a

We stayed as a family and were comfortable throughout our entire visit! The building feels a bit traditional, but the inside is bright, and we could sense thoughtful attention to detail everywhere, which made it very relaxing. All the staff were pleasant, and the Accommodation wa

It was a very lovely Hotel. The lobby had a café-like atmosphere, and the decorations were beautiful, with artworks that evoked the feeling of the sea. I felt it was a Hotel that could be comfortably enjoyed by both middle-aged guests and families. The breakfast was great a

We truly enjoyed our stay as a family thanks to the excellent location—close to town and with a private beach. Thank you very much. Cats may come into the garden, which we found soothing, but guests who are not comfortable with cats may want to be aware of this in advance.

The Room was clean, and we had a great time!

We were also looking forward to watching the sunset from the Hotel, but that didn’t work out either. We’d love to visit again and see a beautiful sunset if we have the chance. The staff were very kind, and the food was delicious—we were very satisfied. One request: since breakf

The Room was spacious, and I was able to relax comfortably. The meals were also delicious. I was satisfied with the Hotel amenities and in-room facilities. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

This was our first overnight stay with our dog, and the detached guest room allowed us to relax without worrying about other guests. All the staff greeted our dog with warm smiles and kind words, so we felt at ease throughout our stay. Thank you very much. We would love to stay again.

It was a wonderful Accommodation. We stayed with five women and four children. Everything felt very clean, and even the amenities were branded, which got everyone excited! Everywhere you look is photo-worthy, and best of all, the BBQ while watching the sunset was amazing. It was still a bit chilly for the season, so we couldn’t use the pool, but we’d love to come back when it’s warmer. The staff were also very kind—thank you so much. It was an excellent Hotel with nothing to complain about.

Walking barefoot on the tatami-covered floors throughout the facility felt wonderful. The room and bath were clean and well-maintained. We received matching handkerchiefs as a couple to celebrate our anniversary, which made us very happy—thank you so much! Upon arrival, we
