    Not so much didn’t like - we had the room with own bathtub, but in hindsight probably dont really need it? We enjoyed the private bath (6 available) thats available and the scenery was much better than our own on the balcony

    The food was amazing!! And the service we received from the staff was excellent!

    A bit run down but lovely nonetheless.

    Loved everything about our stay in a room with open air bath. We stayed for two says and it was large enough to fit me and my partner. We loved listening to the ocean while bathing at night. The open air baths are nice as well and there’s variety and we never waited for one. Would have appreciated a double futon, since it was a bit hard and it is what we were used to from other places, but we slept well. Definitely too much food for us but it is to be expected and we loved all of it, maybe 1 or 2 dishes were not really to our taste but ate all of it. Couldn’t finish breakfast on day 2 but everything was delicious. The staff is really lovely and accommodating. They also provided shuttle to and from the train station.

    The neighborhood is quiet and feels very local. Besides the great sea view there are not much around. Our room is on 2nd floor which was pretty close to the street and there were some noises from cars but luckily it was not a busy street anyway.

    The staff are nice and friendly and helpful. The hotel is well managed and facilities feels new and clean. There are 7 free out-door private onsens available, which are very nice and easy to use and were never full during our stay. The sea view in the room is great especially for watching sun-rise. Half-board meals provided were great with numerous seafood dishes including lobster and abalone etc which are over our expectation. We could park our car right in front of the hotel which was very convenient. We had a very nice experience staying here for 2 nights.

    Service was great, location was breath-taking being next to the ocean. The room size was decent and the private bath inside our room had a wonderful view. Also enjoyed the private dining room for both breakfast and dinner. The public bath (with private bath options) were all very peaceful and decent.

    Kaiseki food quality could be better especially the breakfast. Lower level rooms have power lines blocking sunrise view. Also, the hotel is directly in front of a street with some traffic noise.

    Location is next to the sea with good view of sunrise. Also, the hotel is good for visit to Jogasski coast and Kawasu 7 waterfalls are within 30 mins drive. Excellent private onsens for use.

    Tattiness of the rooms, power lines in front of the inn.

    This is a really difficult review because this place is a little unusual. It's a very old fashioned inn with excellent service and outstanding food. The onsen baths are all beautiful and very relaxing. View is quite lovely. However the inn itself is quite tired and in need of updating. For this reason alone I find the price a bit steep and so I have scored it lower.

    Lovely and relaxing stay to end a fantastic two weeks trip around Japan

    No USB outlets to charge our phones. We felt that the onsens water was a bit too warm for us as we couldn't stay fully submersed for more than a couple of minutes at a time, but maybe that's just normal Japanese onsen temperatures. The room clearly needs an update but the common areas are in a perfect state.

    The staff at Hiina goes above and beyond, even according to the already very high Japanese standards. Even though we only came across one staff member that spoke fluent English, all the staff was incredibly polite, helpful, and sweet. We felt like royalty. They picked us up at Izu-Atagawa station and dropped us back after we checked-out. Our room, despite dated and needing some renovations, was lovely. We had a wonderful sea view, a spacious balcony with our own small onsen and an outdoor shower area, a spacious tatami style living room as well as an entrance that had two sinks and the toilet in a separate small room. Despite having our own onsen, we ventured to the ones spread throughout the property and loved them. The view of every single one is beautiful as they all face the sea, they're all extremely private and with spacious private shower facilities. Lastly, the meals. I would start by saying that even for adventurous food eaters like us, some things were a bit intimidating, and since the lovely lady serving our meals didn't speak a word of English, most of the time we had no idea what we were eating. Nevertheless, they accommodated us since we don't eat meat. Our second dinner and second breakfast were divine, especially the dinner, because the staff adjusted our meals based on what we ate and didn't eat from our first meals, which shows a great level of care and attention to detail. For this reason, our first meals were good but not as fantastic as the second ones.

    This resort has really nice service, everyone is so sweet and helpful. Dinner and Breakfast are amazing, everyday menu are different. Love their 金目鯛! The ocean-view outdoor bath is amazing, you also got private bath there ( a great time with Family). In our Checking out morning, the rain was pouring that the train from Izu-Atagawa is stopped. They were helping out to find other way to reach Tokyo and send us to further station from Atagawa helping us travel. Have to say a big big thank you to Hiina! Would love to visit again and highly recommend to ppl whoever wanna visit Izu in the future!

    Very traditional Japanese style, nothing to complain about just be aware that the food served is culturally appropriate for the tradition of the onsen.

    We enjoyed the view of the sea from our balcony and the use of the private onsens they provide Yukatas on arrival and also provide room service during dinner to swap room into sleeping. We booked half board so we got breakfast and dinner. There is 5/6 private onsens available 14:30-midnight, upgrades to having an onsen on balcony which is available 24hr and a male and female public onsen. The private onsens were useful for us because of my tattoos. Shampoo and soap provided, towels provided.

    I loved everything....

    It's authenticity, true comfort, the private onsen on, and crashing sea below, my terrace and the delicious food were remarkable.... This is magic if you're seeking extraordinary Japanese kaiseki combined with a genuine, absolutely comfortable, beautifully clean, welcoming experience of rural Japan by the sea. (Make sure to confirm you have a private toilet, if you want one....)
