Shimoda Ryosen-ji Temple Hotels

"Great hotel on a beautiful beach situated close enough to Kawazu Town that you could walk. Surfers in sea along a wonderful view of the sea. My only disappointment was the first might we arrived the restaurants were booked or closed and the only option was “bar food” which was a delicious charcuterie board, we ordered two. Awesome staff that went above and beyond with service even though they were short staffed. "

"Been here before and I wasn’t disappointed at all. StAFF IS FRIENDLY AND THE FOOD IS EXCELLENT.NT. "

"The breakfast buffet was amazing and very friendly staff. We were disappointed with how dry the room was and limited walking area. The hotel is on top of a huge hill impossible to walk anywhere "

"The room had an incredible ocean view. The breakfast was extensive and interesting. It would have been helpful to have a little more explanation in English of how to prepare for going into the onsen. We were provided with yukutas (robes), obis (belts) and haoris (vests that go over the yukutas), which we learned we should wear with slippers to the public places in the hotel, including the lounge, dining room and down to the onsen (hot spring). We would have appreciated a few more nuts or other snack selections during happy hour. The dessert hour selections were extensive. A couple of helpful tips: the hotel offers a shuttle bus from the Izu-Inatori train station until 7 pm. If you don't pre-book dinner at the hotel, there are restaurants nearby, but the walk to them is dark and the road is twisty. We took a cab to an excellent Korean BBQ restaurant called Tora No Ana and then walked back to the hotel. A really wonderful, authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience. Google Translate is your best friend."

"Very nice and spacious traditional ryokan. Peaceful, private onsen was wonderful "

"お部屋から海と朝日が一望できてとても良かったです。 朝ごはんも色々選ぶことができ、満足しています。 ただ、ホテルから、あるいはホテルへの移動の際、シャトルバスの時間が限られているのがとても不便でした。"

"最高でした"

"Very nice staff, room was spacious and had panoramic view of the ocean and the food was excellent. Second time staying and will be back. "

"Wow.. What a wonderful stay! The staff was courteous, professional and kind. Room was kept tidy my entire stay. The rooftop onsen was sublime, the bowling alley was an awesome surprise, the hotel was accessible to gorgeous Jogasaki coastline and the views were immaculate. I left refreshed and inspired. To the Akazawa hotel I give my sincerest arigatou gazaimasu! "
