    Nostalgic 80’s hotspring getaway in Atami

    • Semi Suite Twin with Tatami Area and Sea View

    The ceilings were low, and my tall western husband kept hitting his head going from room to room- he often remembered to duck, but not always. The biggest size of yukata offered for the hot spring was 175 cm for men, he is 190 cm, so… The room had lots of visible wear, which would be fine, if it were also clean, it was not up to the standard I have come to expect in Japan. There was mildew in the shower room which I was able to clean off the tiles myself before showering- and dust in many corners of the suite. The view was nice, but obstructed and the chairs don’t move so you can see better out the window, and the carpeted area was in bad shape with stains. Water damage on walls in main area, musty smell throughout room.

    The location was close to the beach, restaurants and some shopping. Family Mart and 7-11 down the hill for last minute needs. Very spacious rooms/suite with a retro vibe that can’t be replicated. If you want to experience nostalgia for a bygone era of late 80’s early 90’s Japan, this is the place. Plenty of room for a family. Hotspring is nice, feels like a place where locals come to get away for less.

    The only thing I might take off a point for was the buildings blocking the view of the sea from our room, but not a big deal.

    The food was really good. Really fresh fish and types of fish you don't often see. Everything was clean, staff was really nice. The room was old-fashioned but nice. We all have a lot of tattoos so we were worried about the onsen but there are several private ones with a good view. I'd stay there again. Great deal for the price.

    The traditional Japanese room with a sea view was enormous by Japanese standards. The room was absolutely stunning . Very clean and comfortable. I brought my two young children so the rooftop private onsen baths were the highlight of the hotel stay. Staff at reception were very friendly.

    this hotel is in a great location, central to everything. The rooms are large, our room was a tatami room. The furniture is a little bit dated, but it was very comfortable. It had a great view of the ocean. The absolute best thing about this hotel are the rooftop open-air onsens. They had seven different onsen to choose from and they were all private and you could look out over the ocean and if you got there early in the morning you could see the sunrise. It was absolutely magnificent. They had stone bathtubs as well as wood bathtubs. I went there multiple times during our stay. The water was deliciously hot, and the view was just incredible.

    Nothing, everything was great.

    The room was very spacious and well maintained. Loved the meals provided and especially the sashimi platter which was so fresh and offered a great variety of seafood. Staff was friendly and we loved the private rooftop onsen which allowed us to catch a memorable sunrise. The hotel is within manageable walking distance from the Atami train station and we can walk easily to the 2 main shopping streets. There is also a good sized supermarket just steps away. The must visit Kinomiya Shrine is also accessible by foot from the hotel. Would love to stay here again if we revisit.

    There was a smell in the room from decades of use and perhaps cigarettes but within in a few minutes I didn't notice it. The lights were a bit too white as to be expected from hotels of this era.

    The location was great with a good view. Loved the rooftop baths and overall atmosphere. A really nice design that you wouldn't get these days, peak Atami vibes.

    Only the 2-pin wall outlet was available, and I couldn't charge my laptop that needs the 3-pin type. The location is on a very awkward hill. So a taxi is recommended for those with large luggage.

    The Japanese style room was very spacious and comfortable, and the futon was already made. Felt luxurious. Open air onsens were big, with great view of the seaside

    The hotel is a little bit old, but if you like hotels which have history then you won’t mind! Personally, I liked the nostalgic vibe. My partner wasn’t so keen - just depends on your preference!

    The location is fantastic. Just a short walk to the beach and many restaurants. The nostalgic and traditional feel of the room was really nice. The rooftop private baths are a great concept. The staff were very helpful and kind, too.

    - Hotel and rooms were definitely a bit dated so they could do with a refresh - There weren't any non-smoking rooms so there was a slight smell that lingered (wasn't very offensive though and was easily fixed with the A/C)

    - Room was massive for 2 people - could've definitely fit a family - Great view of the beach from our room - There were 5 private onsens on the rooftop - they were all amazing and had the most stunning views. It was also easy to see which onsens were available as there were lights next to the elevators which showed their availability - There was the option of sleeping on proper beds or on the futon - we opted for the latter - Staff were very accommodating and could converse in English with us - Toilet was separate to the shower room which we personally prefer - In room breakfast and kaiseki dinner was great (heavy on the seafood though but it was to be expected considering the location) - Hotel had private parking nearby for a small daily fee - Walkable distance to the Atami Ginza strip which has lots of restaurants/shops around

    A great stay at the night of firework show
    • Leisure trip

    • Stayed 1 night

    The price of a stay at the firework show night was quite higher than usual. But consider the location of this hotel, the comfortable that we didn't have to rush for the train right after the firework show was over, especially the bonus ticket to the designated area where there was the best view of firework, it worth the price.

    This was my first international family trip after the COVID-19 pandemic, and this hotel was our first stay. My colleague recommended the firework show on July 26 night at Atami, so I booked this hotel in a hurry. Now it turned out that was a very good choice! The room is in traditional Japanese style, with an indoor area like a balcony that has the sea view. The futon beds are quite cozy, and the air-conditioner is just right for a comfortable night of sleep. The staff are very nice, they did their best to help me, from check-in, borrow the kimono, all the way to help me call a taxi to the JR Atami station. I can only use English to communicate with the staff, yet I found no difficulty in expressing myself and getting the answers. They offered each one in my family a special "ticket", which eligible us for an area that has the best view of the firework show over the sea. I would definitely come back if I were to visit Atami again.

The dinner and breakfast service is highly recommended. Oishi!! The staff was attentive and generous with their time presenting a generous and unique assortment of local Japanese cuisine.
