Izu Kodo-ji Temple Hotels

"Everything! It was like a dream, the whole place was astonishing and beautiful. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and even tho we did not speak much Japanese, they were kind and patient with us and explained the amenities for us. The room itself was amazing and the views to the pond were great, and the private onsen? Really peaceful atmosphere and very private. "

"The property was blissful and relaxing! Was the highlight of our Japan trip! Highly recommend! Thank you for the amazing memories! "

"My stay did not include breakfast. The place is great. Although I didn't know I did not have a personal restroom. So, the cleanliness depended on who was staying at the time. All and all great place and it was in the middle of all the stores and plaza. "

"Everything was perfect I hope to return next year :) "

"5/5 star service. Clean room, great view, perfect amenities "

"We had a fantastic experience at this traditional Japanese ryokan in Shuzenji Onsen, said to be over 400 years old. Despite its age, the facilities and rooms were spotlessly clean and well maintained. We booked two suites, each with its own private onsen, which was perfect for relaxing. Each suite can fit up to four guests, making it great for families or groups. The staff were incredibly kind and attentive. We accidentally left a cell phone behind, and they quickly arranged to ship it to our next hotel—a level of service we truly appreciated. The property offers one public onsen and one private onsen. The shared spaces are a bit small, and the private onsen is first-come, first-served with no reservation system, which may be inconvenient for some. Since our suites had private baths, this wasn’t an issue for us. A fun highlight: the ryokan has three small self-service cafés with complimentary drinks, popsicles, and ice cream, plus a late-night free ramen bar at 10 PM. Such a unique and enjoyable touch! Meals were excellent. The kaiseki dinner was beautifully prepared, and breakfast offered Western or Japanese options. Their Western-style breakfast tasted better than many we’ve had back home in the US. There is also a charming kimono rental shop next door. We recommend renting here rather than in Kyoto or Tokyo—it's less crowded and offers stunning photo spots with bamboo forests, a riverside bridge, and nearby temples. We highly recommend this ryokan."

"Clean and beautiful room with in room onsen. Amazing and loved it "

"I had booked this hotel thinking it was standard, but it was Japanese style: tatami floor, floor mattress, and no private bathroom (shower). The room did have a toilet, sink, closets, tv, electrical kettle, etc… yet despite not having my own shower was not a big deal. They offer bathhouse: very clean, spacious, with multiple pools (hot water) cold tub, sauna and even an outdoors onsen! Overlooking the river! Fall asleep sleep to a running river, and waking up to it was so soothing. The staff was friendly and helpful, overall i had a fantastic stay and would book again. "

"Very good hotel "
