This was our second stay. Once again, we were able to fully relax and enjoy the hot springs at a leisurely pace in a room with an open-air bath. As always, both dinner and breakfast were delicious (we especially loved the five small varieties of dried fish at breakfast—our family prefers that over being served one large piece). The staff were warm and attentive, and we had a very comfortable stay. Because we like this inn so much, this time I brought my elderly father and my sister who lives in the city. It’s the kind of place that makes you want to come back, and I was happy that both of them enjoyed it as well. During our meal, a new staff member with a beginner’s badge served us with great effort; their fresh yet polite manner left a wonderful impression. We look forward to seeing their continued growth. Thank you again for such a lovely time. We would love to visit again with someone special.

Dinner features a full-course pufferfish meal. Breakfast includes freshly cooked rice in an earthen pot, thickly sliced grilled salmon, shaved bonito flakes (a rare treat these days), fluffy rolled omelet, large soft pickled plums, lightly pickled cucumber and daikon radish, and more—showcasing attention to both ingredients and hospitality.

I stayed here for an early-morning flight and was able to start my trip with plenty of time to spare. With such a great location for making the most of the airport, I’d definitely like to stay again next time.

I made a Reservation for my daughter’s birthday. We were warmly welcomed on arrival by car, and the experience began with a matcha tea service. The semi-private dining area for dinner was decorated for her birthday, and we truly appreciated the thoughtful touch. The meal was also delicious. We chose a Room with an open-air bath, but there were quite a few stink bugs, which was the only slight disappointment. Of course, insects are part of nature and can’t be helped, and overall we had a wonderful stay.

I chose this Accommodation because I wanted to relax in a bath with an ocean view, and it offers ocean-view rooms with private open-air baths. I later realized it was featured in the Michelin Guide (Tokai edition). There are many baths throughout the Accommodation—on the rooftop, on the 5th floor, two on the 3rd floor, and one on the 2nd floor—but unfortunately the 2nd-floor bath was closed on the day of my stay. The in-room open-air bath had plenty of hot water and a great view, and I enjoyed it very much. The 5th-floor bath is a reservable private bath in 25-minute slots, so it felt a bit rushed. On the 3rd floor, if it’s available you can lock it and use it privately; I used only one of them, and its semi-open-air style was best suited for washing up. I used the rooftop open-air bath after dinner—the gradient of colors in the sky was stunning, and I could even see an evening star, making for a truly beautiful experience; however... because there is nothing to block the wind on the rooftop, I felt very cold even during the short walk to the tub. You may want to choose your season if you want to fully enjoy it. The staff were cheerful and kind. I booked a Plan with breakfast and dinner; both meals were delicious and felt like just the right amount. Perhaps because everything paired well with alcohol, I got thirsty at night and drank water several times (I appreciated that cold water was provided in a pot in my room). The bedding was high quality and I slept well. Overall satisfaction was high—an Accommodation that made me want to return. One disappointing point—also mentioned by others—was that there were many marks on the tatami mats that looked like they came from dragging tables or other furniture around. Also as others have noted, there were some areas where cleaning seemed insufficient: higher spots and exterior sides of window frames looked like they hadn’t been wiped for quite some time. What bothered me most this time was that weeding around the open-air bath area hadn’t been done at all. It seems like it could be finished within an hour—or handled with weed killer—but since there don’t seem to be many young people locally and older staff appear to be running things mainly themselves, this may be easier said than done. Photos from when Game 16 of Ryuo Title Match (Season 16) was held here are displayed inside; you can see younger versions of Morishita Koji? Wait: Actually "森内、羽生" are Yoshiharu Morinouchi? It's "Morinouchi" vs "Habu". Alongside them is also a young Sugimoto Masayuki (8-dan), famous as mentor to Fujii Sota (six titles). Shogi fans—and especially Fujii fans—should definitely take a look.

This was my second stay, and this time I stayed in a Superior Twin Room. The bathroom and toilet were separate, which was excellent. The room also felt more than twice the size of a Double Room, making it very comfortable. Breakfast had an adequate variety and was delicious.

Direct elevator access to the airport terminal made getting around very convenient, regardless of the weather or how much luggage we had. In addition, it offered great value for money, and perhaps by chance, breakfast was also easy and smooth. The twin Room was spacious enough and comfortable, so I would like to stay here again next time.

Stayed here the night before a weekend event. The facility is not new but well-maintained. The advantages include having a small public bath, free and spacious parking, and breakfast buffet included in the accommodation fee. I also liked the pillows provided. Since there are not many restaurants nearby and it’s located in a quiet riverside area, those without a car might find it inconvenient for dinner; however, dinner options were available at the hotel restaurant, which seems thoughtful. There’s no sense of luxury, but it’s sufficient for solo travelers and offers good value for money! There was an atmospheric sake brewery right in front of the hotel—if you enjoy sake, purchasing some there to enjoy leisurely in your room could be a nice idea!

I had dietary requirements, and after informing them in advance, they accommodated me with great care and attention to detail. Every staff member provided excellent service, and I had a very comfortable stay. Thank you very much. This is an Accommodation I definitely want to visit again!

Before visiting Himakajima, I researched accommodations and found that the reviews were not very favorable, so my expectations were low. However, the staff at the accommodation were all incredibly hospitable, providing exceptional service throughout my stay. While it was not an onsen, the large public bath was spacious and relaxing, offering a similar experience with views of Ise Bay and Mikawa Bay. The sunset from the room was extraordinary—a scene reminiscent of a novel's opening line describing "a magnificent twilight," visible across the peninsula. The only disappointment was hearing that octopus catches have been poor recently. I look forward to visiting again when I have another opportunity.
