Around Inohana Beach × Highly rated for dining at Hotel·Ryokan

Because my husband is from Nagaoka, we come from Tokyo to Niigata every year during the Obon season. Our usual routine is to go swimming at Kakudahama Beach first, then stay at Hotel Asuka. The made-to-order dinner buffet is delicious, and the food comes out quickly. The dishes you can pick up anytime are also great, so I always end up eating too much. Both the long-time staff and the newer team members are truly pleasant and welcoming—it makes me feel at home. This is my favorite hotel that I look forward to visiting every year. We’ll be back again next year, so thank you in advance.

We avoid peak seasons and, every year in late August after the Obon holidays, my spouse and I visit a nearby Onsen to relax. We have stayed at this Accommodation once before, and the views from both the Room and the baths were excellent, and we were very satisfied with both breakfast and dinner. Dinner in particular was an abundant spread—crab, abalone, lobster, beef steak, simmered nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), and sashimi including fatty tuna—so many dishes that we couldn’t finish them all.

This was my first time staying here. It’s close to the interchange, so it’s convenient if you’re driving. There are also many restaurants within walking distance—Bikkuri Donkey, Yamaokaya, Komeda Coffee, Kora, and more—so you’ll have plenty of choices. The Room was clean and there is a large public bath as well. I would like to stay here again.

The seafood was delicious. The meal even included a whole crab, making it very filling. The sashimi was also excellent, and our whole family was very satisfied. Breakfast could be enjoyed while looking out at the sea. We also highly recommend the private sauna!

I stayed here for the fireworks festival. As soon as I arrived at the Hotel, I was worried about the route to the venue and how to get back, so I asked the front desk for help. Later, a staff member researched the route, printed it out, and delivered it to my Room. It was extremely helpful. I returned to the Hotel after 1:00 a.m., but they came outside to greet me, which made me feel very safe. I would like to stay here again if I have another opportunity. Thank you very much.

Teradomari offers a wide range of Hotels and Ryokan along its long coastline, making it hard to choose, but I was drawn to Hokushinkan, nestled in the mountains a little away from the shore. This renovated former therapeutic Accommodation features two types of lukewarm baths and only seven Rooms, which sounded perfect for a quiet stay, so I chose a Room with a private bath. The Room we stayed in had tasteful, refined interiors, and from the window we enjoyed fresh greenery in the mountains and garden as well as small birds. No slippers are needed inside the building. Both breakfast and dinner were beautifully presented and delicious, allowing us to relax and spend our time peacefully. We would love to return as a couple for a Multiple Night Stay next time. (We were so full that we couldn’t finish the rice and miso soup, so we’d like to try again.)

It feels like many years have passed, but I was really impressed by how clean and well maintained everything was! Because it was a sunny day, we were able to see the exact moment the sun set. At that time, everyone raised the roller blinds, and it made dinner with that beautiful sunset absolutely perfect. We wanted to sit by the window, so we asked to change seats, but it wasn’t possible. Since there were also day-trip guests, I guess it couldn’t be helped—but if there had been a little flexibility, it would have been truly perfect! Still, it turned into an amazing and enjoyable trip, and we’re very satisfied. I hope you continue to be a wonderful Ryokan forever—always clean and beautiful, with kindness and smiles. We visited as two generations of parent and child, and it became a great memory! We might want to go again!!!

We ended up staying an extra two nights after the Nagaoka Fireworks. The location is very convenient for street food in Teradomari, fishing at the fishing port, and nearby beaches. The Facility itself is new and clean. The parking instructions were a bit hard to understand, but there is also parking in front of the Facility, and it seems fine to park there. The bath is not an Onsen, but if you look around, there are plenty of hot springs nearby. Highly recommended for international guests as well. We would love to stay again!
