Yaizu Station × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan

We stayed during the Marine Day three-day weekend.\nIt was a hot, sunny day, but upon arrival we were greeted warmly and impressed by the smooth valet parking—truly the quality you’d expect from a luxury Accommodation.\nThe front desk procedures and guidance were clear and courteous. We were shown to our Room with care, and both the in-room amenities and the private open-air bath were spacious. The natural Onsen water was crystal clear, allowing us to relax and unwind at length. Dinner was a kaiseki course that felt far beyond “standard”—everything was delicious. Breakfast also offered a wide variety of dishes, and we especially enjoyed comparing different types of Yaizu’s famous shaved bonito flakes. We reluctantly prepared to leave and checked out.\nThis is an Accommodation we definitely want to plan a Reservation for again next time.

I stayed in a single room for one night. The Room seemed to be convertible into a twin, with a sofa that could turn into a bed. I was slightly concerned about the futon stored under the desk, presumably for use when set up as a twin, but the Room was spacious, clean, and overall very pleasant. The fact that there was no unpleasant smell in the bathroom made it particularly comfortable. There was a system to notify guests of breakfast crowd levels, which I checked; however, there seemed to be quite a discrepancy between the display and reality (it showed "crowded," but when I arrived, more than half of the seats were empty). Being on the 7th floor might have caused some delay during my trip down. The breakfast selection wasn’t extensive but covered all key points and left me satisfied.

I ordered a tuna rice bowl for dinner. It was piled high with huge slices of tuna—more than I could finish. The tuna slices at the Hotel I stayed at the next day looked disappointing in comparison. The Room is like a typical Business Hotel. Breakfast was also substantial. The staff worked efficiently, so I could eat in a relaxed atmosphere. They also had Earl Grey tea.

This was my first time staying here. An all-inclusive Hotel. There was a great variety of food and drinks in the lounge, and the dashi broth and burgers were especially delicious. The lounge on the upper floor had a calm atmosphere and was very nice. The bath, footbath, and buffet meals were all great. The tea ceremony experience, table tennis, board games, and video games were fun. If the weather had been better, I would have liked to play tennis. The whole-orange juice was delicious. Mt. Fuji after the typhoon passed was a spectacular view. We stayed for two nights and would like to stay again.

I stayed here for the first time for the tuna and the Onsen, and it was better than expected. As soon as I pulled up to the entrance, a staff member quickly came to carry my luggage (all the way to my Room), and the parking lot was spacious so I could park with peace of mind. My Room was No. 803, with a full ocean view from the window, and it was new and spotless. It would have been perfect if I could see Mt. Fuji too—unfortunately not. The toilet is automatic, and everything from the sofa to the washbasin area is functional; even the air conditioning is designed so that airflow doesn’t blow directly on you. The large public bath is spacious and includes an open-air bath, and there was even a poster saying Yaizu Onsen is No. 1 in central Shizuoka Prefecture (according to experts). It was an unexpected treat after bathing to be able to enjoy draft beer, snacks, juice, etc., in a lounge-like area. For dinner we chose a private room, so we could eat in a relaxed setting. Everything was good, but in particular the seasonal giant freshwater prawn and eel were plump and delicious. There was also a bingo game in the lobby from 8:30 p.m., with many families participating—it really showed the Hotel’s hospitality spirit. Breakfast was buffet-style; both the venue and selection were extensive—tuna, shirasu (whitebait), salmon, omelets, and more—and it was excellent overall. For this price point, considering everything—the Onsen, meals, Room quality, location, service—it felt far beyond what you’d expect from a “casual” Hotel category. In terms of value for money, this ranks among my best stays ever.

I decided to stay one more night before heading back to Chiba, so I went to Kamenoi Hotel Yaizu. As soon as I arrived, I headed straight to the coin laundry—being able to do laundry is so convenient. At the restaurant, the manager recommended a Shizuoka-only beer. They said it is delivered from a nearby brewery, and the fresh beer was truly delicious. They also carefully select local Yaizu ingredients. I’m not usually a fan of bonito, but the “rare bonito cutlet” was amazingly good. The grilled salted tuna collar at breakfast was also impressive. I accidentally spilled soy sauce from the sashimi and wiped it up with my hand towel, which turned completely black. A male foreign staff member noticed and quietly handed me a new towel saying, “Here you go.” I was very happy that he noticed—thank you very much. I’d love to visit again for the delicious beer and Yaizu seafood.

We were able to relax in a retro yet well-kept Room. The main meal, especially the tuna, was truly outstanding, and everything—from the delicious dishes and local sake to the freshly cooked rice—was wonderful, allowing us to enjoy a lovely time. It was incredibly soothing. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Booked a twin room urgently for a memorial service. I knew it was right in front of the Yaizu Interchange, and overall, it was a satisfying Business Hotel. Perhaps because it was a weekday, the Room, large public bath, and breakfast area were compact yet clean, quiet, and relaxing. The breakfast had many options, but I wished there were more fish dishes to reflect Yaizu's local flavor. The only concern was the smell from the unit bath's drainage system.

The staff were efficient and pleasant in their service. Although there was a wait due to the busy season (the Onsen bath has a capacity of 4 people), I was very satisfied with the experience, including access to the Onsen at this price, a complimentary welcome drink, and ice pops after bathing. I will definitely use this service again.

I didn’t expect much given the low price, but the front desk staff were very welcoming, and the Room was more spacious than I thought—I slept like a log. If I come back to Yaizu, this is the place.

I stayed in a double room, and it was perfectly fine if you just need a place to sleep. I checked in late at night, and the staff kindly explained the check-in process, so I think it works well for business travelers as well as couples and married couples. It has a unique atmosphere you won’t find at other Business Hotels, but it has been nicely renovated and I was very satisfied. There is no TV, but these days a smartphone is enough, and I really liked the bed. I would like to stay again. *Please note: there are only shower rooms (no bathtub), so if you want to soak in a bath, this may not be suitable for you.*

I stayed on the middle day of a three-day holiday weekend. I was pleasantly surprised that free juice, beer, alcoholic drinks, and snacks were provided. However, the beer and snacks were gone by around 8:00 p.m., so I recommend going early if you want to enjoy them. There was also a kids’ corner, and the children looked like they were having a great time. The staff were polite and attentive, and I was very satisfied with the service. On the other hand, I was a bit disappointed with the Room cleaning. There was enough dust on the desk and in corners of the floor that it felt like it had been quite some time since the last thorough cleaning. In particular, dust had heavily accumulated in the sliding window tracks. With more careful cleaning, I think guests would be able to stay more comfortably. The price was reasonable and the services were excellent, so I would definitely like to stay again. If housekeeping improves, I believe this will become an even better Hotel.
