Hotel Kolam air panas di Ashigarashimo District

旧岩崎邸の別荘を利用したという館内には、歴史を感じさせるレトロな雰囲気が漂っています。部屋や廊下に飾られた調度品や工芸品が美しく、見ごたえがありました。珈琲、各種紅茶、ハーブティーなどが自由に飲める落ち着いた雰囲気のカフェには、ゆったりとした時間が流れており、ワーケ―ションにもおすすめできる環境です。 部屋は一人旅にはじゅうぶん過ぎるほど広く、露天風呂も満喫できました。湯河原なので仕方ありませんが、露天風呂からの景色はシティービューでいまひとつでしたが。 期待していた食事は、小さな工夫は見られるものの、平凡で、コストと建物のすばらしさに比較すると少しチープな印象。美食を思いっきり楽しむというよりは、普段使いの気軽な宿という感じでしょうか。窓際のカウンターを案内していただけたので、一人旅でも気兼ねなく食事を楽しむことができる点は、評価したいと思いました。

本物の温泉、ありのままの素晴らしさ。 地域に長年暮らしている、オーナーが提供するアナザーホスピタリティ。 質の良い温泉に浸かり、良く寝る。それが最高と思ってしまう滞在。 This is a place that can teach you the depth of the meaning of hospitality. It may not be as polished or extravagant as other hotels, but it carries the heart of the owner who was raised in this land, along with a genuine hot spring. Enjoy casual conversations and a wonderful sleep. It creates beautiful memories of Japan just as they are.

傳統家族式日式温泉酒店，服務不錯，早餐略顯清淡，但體驗一下日式家庭早餐也是不錯的體驗。温泉舒適衞生，整體環境優美，適合家庭出遊時居住。以後會再去！

Beau Ryokan un peu desuet mais qui vous plonge dans le temps avec son dîner servi dans la chambre ou on peut manger en tenue traditionnelle. Nous avons testé le bain privé mais pas le public qui était fermé en soirée. Attention le dîner est très bon mais servi à 18h00 et il doit être commandé très tôt. Je recommande cet établissement pour la gentillesse du personnel et la qualité de la nourriture y compris son petit déjeuner typique 👍

The hotel is a bit far from the main street, and near a small river, which always promises a good start to the day. Wi-Fi network is perfect on all premises. Dinner is dominated mainly by traditional Japanese cuisine with some dishes with a western flavor. The list of ”Shotu” is satisfactory while wine-lovers would be disappointed. Suttle bus service is available from/to the Yugawara station. Since check-in starts at 14:00, an hour earlier than normal hotels, you can enjoy ”Onsen” for longer. Don't miss outside ”Onsen”, where lots of stars and planets gaze at you at night.

Hotel Shiroyama might be easily overlooked by foreign travelers. And there may be a reason for that. It doesn't really cater to non-Japanese speakers. That said, if you can speak some Japanese and you have a good understanding of Japanese etiquette and rules, you can have an excellent experience at this hotel. (I am a Westerner, I can speak some Japanese, and I have a Japanese husband. All of this was greatly to my benefit, so, keep that in mind as you read this review.) Hotel Shiroyama is, depending on what part of the hotel you are in, quite old. There are parts of it that look like it's from the Showa era, with maroon walls and old-style hotel carpeting. But then... in the men's sento (public bath), it was incredibly beautiful and clean and modern. Small, yes, but still, truly lovely. Also, the rooms: there must have been a ”refresh” on all the bathrooms: there were double sinks, a stall shower with an overheard attachment so you can really get a good blasting if you want one, and of course a washlet toilet with the lid that opens when you approach it. The rooms were also quite large, with a separate little sitting area near the window (although there is no view to speak of, at least from the 2nd floor). The pièce de résistance is the Japanese dinner that is served in your room. It is quite astonishing in the number of dishes that are offered: lots of small appetizers, sashimi, sumashijiru (a clear soup that is divine), beef stew covered with a baked rice cracker, several other dishes that are heated at the table, rice, of course, and more. We stopped counting and stopped eating -- it was too much. And then of course there was dessert. Now, I am not saying this was a 5-star meal; some of it was great, the rest was good. But the amount that was served was sort of mind-boggling. Of course you can also order beer or sake or soft drinks to go with the meal. Trust me; for two people, it was just way too much food, unless you have super hearty appetites and absolutely love Japanese cuisine. That said, if you are unable to sit cross-legged in a chair made for that purpose, you will be somewhat uncomfortable for the entire meal. It is all served on a low table, and while you can put your feet under the table, you will not be sitting in a position that is natural for most Westerners. There is a smallish table in the sitting room (near the window), but do not expect them to put the food there, because there are too many dishes and they won't fit. I would say the Hotel Shiroyama went above and beyond to provide a really lovely ”Japanese experience” with their dinner. Also, the breakfast served in the morning in a communal dining room was fairly hearty, but it is entirely Japanese. If you are used to eating this way, or you are craving this kind of experience you will enjoy it -- but remember, these meals are ”set.” There is no substitution for anything. They do not cater to vegetarians, so if you are one, this is not the place for you. The attend

This was our second time staying at this inn. Yes, we knew it was ”pet friendly”, but dogs are allowed in the rooms and are barking out of control past 11 pm. I complained to the front desk and they replied, ”Yes, some dogs are very noisy sometimes”. What a waste of a good hot spring. We can't recommend this place and will surely look for another place next time. Don't stay here unless you need a place for your dog to bark wildly late into the night. (Barking as i type this).

Tsukinoya provides flawless service and all the necessary facilities for visitors. Stay connected with your associates, as complimentary Wi-Fi is available during your entire visit.When arriving by car, you'll be grateful for the on-site complimentary parking at ryokan. Smoking is permitted solely in the specified smoking zones allocated by ryokan. Throughout the day and night, guests can enjoy light refreshments with the ryokan offering vending machines.

this onsen hotel is super gorgeous, with modern vibe. we had such a welcoming stay. i would highly recommend this property

This is definitely not a ryokan. We paid £105 for a basic youth hostel, with a very old, shabby room. Pics attached. Btw you also have to lay out your own futon and duvet, and tuck in all the sheets etc. Zero service, and zero staff after 7pm. Only two outdoor baths, which were very small, but only one party could use it per time so there was a queue for the keys! Lastly, I didn't think I'd ever say this about Japan but the male toilets were dirty, smelly, and damp, with wet floors. The stairs and reception were carpeted but mouldy and dirty. This place was an absolute disgrace and not a ryokan. The youth hostel we stayed in the night before (Deer Park Inn, Nara) was way cleaner!
