Nisshokan

"It's very old, and it feels like a B&B. I only saw two buildings of MS Hotel in Futamiura. The others are similar to this three-story Japanese-style old house B&B. There is no shower in the room. You have to go to the public room on the first floor. The bathhouse (is small, but very clean, almost no one there), the Japanese old man who owns it is very nice, and the dinner and breakfast are very good. I just wanted to add some Matsusaka beef, but he said it was not available😓. I feel that the price is a bit expensive during the cherry blossom season, because I booked it on the morning of my check-in, so there may be less choices. Only this hotel has available rooms."

"Facilities: Authentic Japanese-style, very good and comprehensive. Cleanliness: Spotlessly clean. Ambient: See the pictures for details; the view alone is worth it. Service: This is the highlight. The service was exceptional, and every detail was spot on."

Somin-No-Yu Hotel Seikai

"I stayed here as part of a tour, and although it was certainly old, and I had some complaints about having to change into slippers at the entrance, the food, and the lack of smiles from the staff, it was a very ordinary hotel. It's not luxurious or flashy. The beach is right behind the hotel, so you can see the calm Ise Bay and the sandy beach from the front of the room, and the Meoto Iwa rocks are nearby, so it's convenient for visiting Ise Shrine, and the location is not bad. It seems like it would be crowded with beachgoers in the summer. The large public bath on the 4th floor has warm, soft water, and the open-air bath faces the sea, so you can hear the sound of the waves and feel the sea breeze, and you can choose the pattern of your yukata, which made a good impression."

Auberge Yusura

"Every year, we try to organize a four-generation family trip (on Mrs. KI-NRT’s side), where everyone can enjoy each other’s company while visiting a destination that offers something for all ages - from grade school kids to mobility-limited elders. For this year’s outing, we chose the Ise area of Mie Prefecture, on the eastern side of the massive Kii Peninsula (shared by Mie, Wakayama, and Nara). There’s plenty to do in the area, including Toba (a seaside resort town), the excellent Toba Aquarium, Mikimoto Pearl Island, and Ise Jingu Shrine. Many of these attractions are within 20 minutes of Auberge Yusura, which was a major reason we chose this ryokan. We considered returning to Kisara Bettei Toki, which we enjoyed for its ocean views, but Auberge Yusura had exactly five rooms - perfect for our group - allowing us to effectively book out the entire property for our two-night stay. Guest reviews also leaned more positively toward Yusura, especially for its service and cuisine, which further tipped the scales. Auberge Yusura opened in 2018 and has a clean, modern aesthetic. All five accommodations are standalone villas with no shared walls, facing a small saltwater pond. The grounds aren’t expansive, but they’re beautifully landscaped. The main building houses a small lounge and the dining area - simple and functional. Two villas sit to the left of the main building, and three to the right. While the detached layout is great for seclusion, privacy isn’t perfect. There’s a walking path on the far side of the pond, and although we only saw one person during our stay, you’ll probably want to keep that in mind if you have the curtains open at night. For the three villas on the right side, the pathway runs between the pond and the rooms, which further reduces privacy. Thankfully, the open-air onsen baths are located behind the villas, surrounded by gardens and high walls that ensure full seclusion. The two villas on the left side don’t have this issue - the pathway runs behind them, making them much more private. For that reason, I’d recommend Keyaki and Kaede if privacy is a priority. Among the three villas on the right, Tochi is the end unit, but even there, the path continues beyond it toward a garden, so occasional foot traffic is still possible. The rooms themselves are not true suites - they’re open-plan, which isn’t our preference. All rooms except Keyaki are 65 square meters, which is adequate but can feel a bit tight for families. Keyaki is larger at 80 square meters and offers the most privacy, though the layout is similar enough that it doesn’t feel dramatically different from the others. Each room has an open-air onsen bath, but the property does not have its own natural hot spring source. Instead, water is transported from Sakakibara Onsen in Tsu (about 45 minutes away), which is known for its silky texture. While it’s not continuously flowing, this setup is fairly common. Guests are even advised not to rinse off after bathing due to"

Hinode Ryokan

"The location is very good, just near Ise Station. If you drive, there is a parking space. The nearby facilities are complete, and the izakaya is within walking distance. The water temperature of the bath is perfect, which just relieves the fatigue of the long drive. The breakfast is rich, and you can taste the attentiveness of the cook. , the building is a little old, but it completely presents the flavor of an old Japanese house. The boss's service is very good and he will guide you to the parking lot. It happened to rain when you checked in, and the boss was very considerate and came to pick you up with an umbrella. Recommended!"

Iwatokan

"I booked a room with breakfast included. It's very close to Meotoiwa (Married Couple Rocks), making sightseeing easy. This time, my purpose for staying was to prepare for a fireworks display. Thank you for your advice regarding my return time and other matters. I would definitely book again if I have another plan. The hot springs were great; my skin felt so smooth. However, there was no hairdryer, so I'll bring my own next time."

Koyoken

"It is within walking distance of the Outer Shrine, and you can take a bus to the Inner Shrine, and a bus to Sarutahiko Shrine and Ise Station. The inn has a history of 130 years, and the rooms are comfortable. The food was also delicious and very satisfying 😊."
