This was the first Hotel where we could enjoy sunrise, sunset, and the night view over the peninsula from our Room. On top of that, the staff’s thoughtfulness was reflected in everything—the spotless cleanliness of the Room, the variety and arrangement of amenities, and even the selection of drinks in the refrigerator. It was simply outstanding. Communicating with the staff and manager was truly comforting, and they were so considerate with the Shuttle Service that we almost felt bad. Even a small comment would be met with “How about this?” as they did everything possible beyond any manual—so much so that we felt we shouldn’t casually mention anything. When we told them it was to celebrate our daughter’s graduation and new job, they created unforgettable memories for us with a handmade bouquet and a champagne toast. Our daughter kept saying to both the staff—and even on our flight home—that she would work hard and definitely come back again. It seems this Accommodation has become a goal for her. There is still so much more I can’t fit here, but among all the Hotels we have stayed at, this became our very best Accommodation. It was a warm place where you could truly feel everyone working together to think about how to make guests happy. Thank you very much. We will be back again.

It would be no exaggeration to say that this stay was the best among all the Hotels I have ever stayed at. Above all, the cuisine was truly outstanding—an experience that felt like “heaven.” The variety of dishes was impressive, and each ingredient freshly sourced from Amakusa was carefully and deliciously prepared. I was moved throughout the entire meal. When serving each dish, the staff also shared stories about the ingredients and wine, which made it especially enjoyable—not just eating, but appreciating the background as well. Everything was delicious, but what stood out most were the sushi with Amakusa kuruma prawns and Amakusa ishigaki sea bream, and the steak made with Amakusa black beef loin. Each dish brought out the best of its ingredients, and in particular, the steak had such concentrated flavor that it became an unforgettable plate. At breakfast, both “Kumasan no Kagayaki” rice and Tamango egg-over-rice were also incredibly delicious—I was impressed from first thing in the morning. The service was excellent as well. The staff’s warm and attentive hospitality left a strong impression. Everyone—including those in the kitchen—greeted us pleasantly, and thoughtful care could be felt everywhere. The Room was a villa type with each unit separate, so we hardly encountered other guests at all. We were able to relax in a private space at our own pace. From welcome drinks to checkout, every moment felt special—it was a truly fulfilling stay. This is a wonderful Accommodation that I would love to visit again.

The cuisine, hospitality, and Facility were all outstanding. Meals in particular were wonderful. Each dish was carefully prepared using local ingredients, and I couldn’t wait for the next course to arrive. The staff who served the meals also gave helpful advice on drinks and provided thorough explanations of each dish, so I was able to enjoy dining at a relaxed pace even as a solo female traveler. Breakfast was delicious as well. If I have the chance to visit Izumo again, I would definitely like to stay here again.

Although the building was old, it was kept very clean, so we had a comfortable stay. After enjoying sightseeing at Amanohashidate, we took a bath and enjoyed delicious crab dishes until we were full—very satisfying. We also appreciated the Ryokan owner’s perfectly balanced hospitality—attentive without being intrusive. Next time, we will visit again with our daughter who loves crab.

My long-held wish to stay here during cherry blossom season finally came true. The cherry blossoms right in front of me were soothing, and I was moved by the beautifully illuminated garden and the moonlit night. The host and all the staff were wonderful—warm, attentive, and made my stay very comfortable. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious, featuring plenty of seafood. (They kindly made rice with conger eel that I couldn’t finish into rice balls, which I enjoyed later as a tasty late-night snack.) This is a truly wonderful Accommodation that I would love to visit again in another season.

As I mentioned in my previous review, the surroundings are serene with nothing but tranquility. While soaking in the open-air bath, all you can hear is the sound of waves—a truly relaxing accommodation that my wife loved so much we decided to stay again. With only a few rooms av

We stayed here on the final day of a 3-night, 4-day long-distance road trip from Fukuoka through Hiroshima, Shimane, and Yamaguchi. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s thoughtful, guest-focused hospitality made us feel warmly welcomed and truly comfortable. The Room we were shown was very spacious, and everything—from the bed to each amenity—was high quality, leaving us extremely satisfied. That day, the view from the balcony was breathtaking, and soaking in the open-air bath while looking at cherry blossoms in full bloom soothed our fatigue from the long drive. This is a place we would definitely love to stay at again—Bettei Otozure!

In the room, there was a birthday plate, celebratory words on the dinner menu, and a commemorative photo. All of these made me very happy. The presentation of the meals was elegant, and the tableware was beautiful. Of course, both breakfast and dinner were delicious. I espe

The view from the bath was stunning, with a beautiful ocean view. In the morning, the moonlit dawn was incredibly magical and lovely. Dinner featured freshly grilled and fried dishes served piping hot, which surprised and impressed everyone. Since my parents live in Suwon, we

The charcoal-grilled Matsuyama sirloin from Asahikawa was perfectly cooked with impeccable meat quality, accompanied by presidential shiitake mushrooms and Ezo mountain wasabi—a combination so perfect it ranks among my top three steak experiences ever. Desserts were equally impr

The meals were meticulously prepared and served with a warm touch that didn’t feel overly formal. The room with a semi-open-air bath was fantastic, allowing us to fully enjoy Onsen without needing to visit the large public bath. It truly felt like an unforgettable experience

We enjoyed one dinner and two breakfasts, all featuring amazing seafood dishes with great variety. The live kitchen risotto and French toast were absolutely exquisite! My children were thrilled and said they want to come back again! Thanks to you, we created wonderful memories in

Extending our trip to Shodoshima was absolutely worth it—this was an Accommodation that truly made us glad we came. Of course, the Room was spacious with no sense of confinement, and it was clean and comfortable. Beyond that, the calm sea stretching out beyond the window felt wonderfully refreshing, and we enjoyed the soothing sound of the waves and seabirds. The private baths (both indoor and outdoor) were relaxing, and after bathing several kinds of drinks are offered as a complimentary service. The olive kaiseki dinner, served over nearly two hours, features carefully prepared seafood from Shodoshima and nearby waters along with meat, vegetables, fruit, and more—beautifully presented on elegant tableware—and each dish can be enjoyed with Shodoshima-produced olive oil. Sitting side by side at sea-facing seats while taking in the view with our meal and wine was outstanding. It was also nice that there was no music or unnecessary noise. The menu is designed to be flipped page by page for each dish—a small touch that adds to the enjoyment. Breakfast also offers a wide variety of items. Once you taste it, you can tell quality ingredients are being used throughout. We joined an evening tour of about an hour to visit Goishiyama (the second sacred site on Shodoshima). On the round-trip microbus ride, we were given explanations about Shodoshima’s industries and history, which deepened our understanding of the island. The night view from Goishiyama left a strong impression. With warm hospitality and pleasant service—and an experience that lets you fully enjoy Shodoshima—this is an Accommodation we came to love.

At the nearby Meka Aquarium, we had the chance to see polar bears and seals up close. Their dynamic movements made us feel like children again as we excitedly enjoyed ourselves together. We sincerely thank you for your thoughtful hospitality and attention to detail. It was truly

My companion was also very satisfied, saying there was nothing to complain about. It was nice that we didn’t have to bring towels from the room, and we could feel thoughtful touches in various places throughout the accommodation. Lastly, two staff members waved us off at depa

This was our first stay. The Room was spacious and clean, and the kids were thrilled. There was more crab than we could finish, and the private dining Room was also spacious, so even after the kids were full, they could relax comfortably. Breakfast was delicious as well. The kids had a Western-style meal with a choice of bread, and the service was excellent—it’s easy to see why so many guests return. We would love to come again next year.

It was truly a wonderful stay where we could fully enjoy the nature of West Izu. The beautiful blue sea, the sunset sinking into the horizon, and the star-filled sky were all incredibly moving. Both the observation deck and private beach, which we visited via a walking trail from

As expected, Dormy Inn is the best. The Room was clean and easy to use, and the staff were very pleasant and helpful. The amenities are minimal but thoughtfully prepared so you can use what you need where you need it, which I really appreciated. The bath was more spacious than I expected, and the water quality was excellent—I felt truly relaxed. If I had to mention one thing, I would have liked more outside air in the open-air side bath. One of the best parts of an open-air or semi-open-air bath is keeping your head cool while your body stays warm in the water. That said, they had fans running and clearly put a lot of thought into it—very impressive. I will definitely stay again. Additional note: At check-in, some overseas guests were speaking very loudly in the lobby, and I couldn’t hear what the front desk staff were saying… This isn’t something caused by the Hotel, but it was honestly very unpleasant.

For dinner, I savored seasonal dishes paired with various local sake, all incredibly delicious. Breakfast included freshly cooked rice, freshly made rolled omelets, grilled nodoguro fish, and more—all equally delightful and filling. On departure, I received a message card from

Although it was a traditional Japanese-style Ryokan, the Room had beds and was very comfortable to use. We came for the wild mountain vegetables, and the meal—also featuring lingering cherry blossoms—really let us feel the season. If possible, we would have liked to enjoy more local wild mountain vegetables and regional ways of preparing them. Freshly harvested bamboo shoots from the grounds were available at a reasonable price. They even included Japanese pepper said to have been picked together, making it a wonderful souvenir.
