The hotel room is spacious. it has a separate bath area and toilet area. I booked a room with western bedroom with a Japanese style tatami living room and private bath tub. The spacing is very good and enjoyable. It also provide public hot spring bath in ad hotel facilities.

The parking lot is a block next to the hotel and it wasn’t indicated clear enough. Once I arrive, I parked in front of the hotel and was aiming to check in and ask for the parking area. A staff come by and asked me to move the car away (park to the proper place before checkin) first. The staff did show me where is the location of car park. Overall experience is good but the tone the staff instruct me is a bit not peaceful.

Traditional Japanese room was spacious, quiet, and well appointed. Never a wait for use of a private, family onsen. Gorgeous footbath overlooking Koi pond. This stay was a highlight of our travels.

The room was very spacious with both a bedroom part and a tatami room. The private bath was the best! Really big and a good temperature which you could adjust to an extent. It was such a good design! The separate basin area and separate toilet were also appreciated. The staff were very polite and welcomed us with a Japanese jelly treat and tea upon arrival. The hotel itself feels very spacious and has a beautiful outdoor pond with carp. We didn't go to the onsen but it seemed to be very popular. It was a bit more expensive relative to the rest of the accommodation for our time in Japan but it was still well-priced, especially for the private bath and onsen! We really enjoyed Ito as well. We could easily walk to restaurants and other parts of town including the station to do day trips to other parts of the Izu Peninsula.

Nothing!

This is an upscale yet affordable onsen hotel with a mix of Western and Japanese styles in the rooms which makes for a very comfortable stay. I stayed in one of the rooms with a Japanese sitting room and onsen in the room. There is a public onsen in the hotel, but having an in-room onsen is a real luxury, particularly in a hotel that is quite affordable compared to similar hotels in the larger tourist-oriented cities in Japan. The dinner I had in the hotel restaurant was exceptional and the breakfast buffet was one of the best I had in Japan.

We booked a room with hot spring bath and it's really spacious. The staffs are polite and nice. If you want your room to be cleaned every day during your stay, you can leave your room key to the front desk when you go out. There are one or two convenience stores around and a supermarket within 8-mins walking distance. If you take a taxi between the Ito JR station and hotel, it's just a flag-fall fare around 830 yen (680+VAT, if I understand correctly)

Nothing really.

The room was very big, with separate Japanese-style "living room" and two western-style beds in their own bedroom. We also had a private Onsen bath in our room. It felt like luxury for a not-so-terribly-high price. The restaurant was great but we only had breakfast there. The hotel Onsen was clean and nice too but it was our first true Onsen experience so it's hard to compare. Staff didn't speak much English but was very nice and helpful. We profited from the seaside location of Ito for swimming in the ocean, both at Ito beach and at the Penguin beach nearby. We also rented a car for a day and visited Mount Omuro and Lake Ashi (Hakone), which allowed us to drive through the mountains and have wonderful views of the Pacific, the countryside and Mount Fuji that showed up right in front of us several times. I chose Ito as an alternative to Hakone and both my wife and me were very happy about this choice!

Difficult to find anything that we wouldn't have liked.

I really enjoyed my one night stay at this Onsen hotel. My room was very clean . The reception lady who did the check in , was very friendly and she speaks English and helpful too. I wished that I stayed for another night ! 😁

There were some loud speaking tourists at the public Onsen really late in the night which was rather disturbing while you were trying to enjoy a quiet and relaxing time at the onsen . Would be good to put up some signs at the Onsen area, to remind people to keep their voice down .

I am surprised the hotel does not have a better rating. It's a really nice Wellness hotel. The beautiful outside Onsens was what we wanted. And it was affordable compared to other onsen hotels. The staff at reception spoke good English. Also in the restaurante, we had an English speaking waiter. The food is excellent. Book for dinner at least once!. We had a Japanese style room and didn't know what that meant, but you have your bed on the floor, which was a great experience. The town is cute, like a holiday area in more rural areas is Europe. Supermarket in walking distance and food options.

Loved the room. We had a private onsen. The public onsen was also great. Spacious and enjoyable. The breakfast was good - lots of variety.

I had a good night’s sleep, but my wife was kept up by noisy guests in the corridor at around 11.30 pm. This isn’t the hotel’s fault of course - it’s the guests’ fault - but noting that the soundproofing between the room and the corridor isn’t great.

The staff at this ryokan were so sweet and helpful, especially the wait staff at dinner. They did their best to describe all the different dishes they served us, which at times was very difficult since some ingredients did not translate well from Japanese to English. The room was spacious and quiet. We had the option of sleeping on western style beds or futons. We also had an in-room onsen which was heaven!!! So wonderful to return to the ryokan after a full day of sightseeing to a wonderful multi-course meal, a hot shower and a lovely soak in the furo.

The ryokan was a little bit off the beaten path. It would have been nice to have a view of the beautiful Ito coast. The only thing I would suggest would be to have softer pillows available. Unfortunately, the pillows provided were very hard and uncomfortable.
