It had a bit of a ``Heisei'' hotel feel to it. Especially in hallways and rooms.There is also a nostalgic hair dryer. ..However, the 120cm deep bath in the large public bath (for women) was wonderful.I was looking forward to seeing the illuminations outside, but due to the heavy rain, I couldn't go outside and took photos from my room's balcony.I thought it was a recommended photo spot for people who are in love.The rice (buffet style) was delicious (well, I couldn't eat that much)

I wanted to spend a quiet weekend in Shirahama, so I looked it up on a hotel search site and chose this hotel because the food looked delicious.The result was very correct, and the stay this time was very wonderful.First of all, when I parked my car and headed towards the entrance, I was moved to see the staff outside the door talking to each person.Check-in was smooth, and at that time, we had to adjust the number of people, so we were asked about dinner and breakfast times.After that, when you go to your room, you will see a panoramic view of the ocean!I feel like I've achieved my goal of spending a quiet time.It was surprisingly nice to be able to see Kawakyu (a famous Shirahama hotel that looks like a castle) across the cove. On the contrary, I thought it was cute and I liked it.``If you open the window, insects may come in near the water, so please be careful.If they come in, please contact the front desk.''I was concerned, but it's okay for a short time. It was.Apple cider vinegar and fruit drinks and water are available in the lobby in front of the public bath, and even after taking a bath, do you drink lemon water before entering the sauna room? There are things like this, so the long bath was perfect for rehydrating.There was an indoor bath and an outdoor bath, both of which were nice, but the outdoor bath was 120cm deep and small children had to be carried by their parents.There was a place to sit, so it seemed like the kids would be fine as long as they got there.The weather was nice that day, so we could see the stars and it was great.Best of all, the food was great.When we headed to the dining hall at the time we were told at check-in, there were a lot of dishes to choose from, and all of them were really delicious.The chefs serve freshly prepared dishes, so you can enjoy freshly fried tempura and freshly grilled steak.For breakfast, I was able to eat freshly made rice balls.I respect the chef who is in charge of making piping hot rice.While staying at this hotel, I took a bath three times, ate a full meal, and was impressed by the staff's attentiveness.It was a truly happy time.thank you very much.I would definitely like to stay again.

I stayed there in early August. As it is a resort hotel, it is large and spacious, and is used by many people. It was an environment that made me want to stay for a long time. All rooms have a view of the ocean, so the view at sunrise was spectacular. It was a standard type twin room, but it was spacious enough, the guest room was quiet, and it was the perfect room for relaxing. Being a resort hotel, it seemed like it had everything, including an indoor pool, large public bath, and public spaces where you could relax. The meals were buffet style, but everything looked so delicious that I ended up eating way too much for both dinner and breakfast as I made so many choices. It gets quite crowded because there are a lot of people using it, but we never ran out of food. The garden is illuminated, so it's perfect for a walk after dinner.

It's a welcome baby inn, so the service is amazing!Baby food was also free, and the room I chose this time had soft guards around the corners of the furniture, so I was able to stay with peace of mind.It was helpful to be able to borrow bed guards, diaper trash cans, and baby soap.The buffet was of a high standard and all the dishes were delicious.The hot springs also had a feeling of openness and I felt comfortable in them.The only thing that bothered me was that there was a person with a lot of tattoos taking a bath, and when I approached the cleaner who was there, I was told that it was covered with a towel... That was the only thing I was concerned about.However, the staff at the front desk were all very polite and kind to the children, and we had a great time.Adventure World is also nearby, so this hotel is recommended for families traveling with children.

We stayed for 2 nights in a suite. The room is spacious and relaxing, but the Wi-Fi is weak and sometimes cuts out. Also, all I wanted was a TV that could watch videos from free apps like YouTube and Abema.The staff's customer service and food were good. Also, I was happy to be able to see the illuminations regardless of the season.

I thought it was a hotel with illuminations, but the room was spacious and clean, and the location was good.The bathroom was also clean.Meals are buffet-style, so you can eat as much as you like. I ended up eating too much.There is also a shuttle bus from Shirahama Station, which is very convenient for those who travel by public transportation.
