Kokoronodoka

Sehr netter Opa, der den traditionellen Ryokan führt. Er hat uns sogar einen kostenlosen Zimmer-Upgrade gegeben. Wenn man eine echte Ryokan Erfahrung machen möchte, ist man hier auf jeden Fall richtig. Die Onsen sind auch sehr schön. Es tut uns ein bisschen Leid, dass wir den Opa meistens nicht verstehen konnten als er mit uns auf japanisch geredet hat aber für das Essenzielle kann er gut genug Englisch sprechen also war das letztendlich kein Problem.

Lovely property located close walk to train station (although it is up hill) and beach within walking distance

We didn’t know you must pre order diner and breakfast in advance

This was one of our favourite places we stayed. Very welcoming and friendly staff. In a great location and within walking distance of the train station too. Lovely peaceful atmosphere and our room had a nice view. I would easily recommend.

The people working here are so kind. Even as someone who speaks very limited Japanese they made us feel welcomed. The rooms were spacious and charming. The property is a great gateway for KAWAZU waterfalls, ruins and beach.

Part of the charm is the seclusion. There is a small hill from the train station.

A quiet paradise in a small town. There’s not much around (in terms of restaurants or stores) but that’s the point. It’s calm and peaceful. All amenities provided (from yukata and towels to cotton swabs and green tea). Two great little private onsens on site. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. Amazing breakfast with a view on surrounding mountains and the sea. Hope to come back here again.

Quiet location with great sea view. Lovely private baths. Lovely family run place. The Japanese breakfast was fantastic! Walking distance to Kawazu along the coast. The nearby village was very cute and the coast is beautiful. I highly recommend Bar&Records Delmonico's, it was a very cool place with great music and the shaved ice was very tasty.

Nothing.

The hospitality was brilliant!! This was an emersion in Japanese culture and I enjoyed every moment - from leaving my shoes at the entrance, wearing a kimono to the private onsen, the huge room with tatami flooring to the excellent Japanese breakfast. I stayed for 5 nights and this was not enough! The hotel is uphill and my room had a lovely view downhill and over the sea shore. Vending machines are available downstairs. The hotel is in a very quiet environment. I sprained my ankle quite badly and the owner offered to take me back to the station, which I really appreciated

The best thing about this hotel is its owner and workers. They were really nice and helpful durint our stay. When we checked out it was raining quite heavily and we didnt have any umbrella on us, so they gave us 2 for free, and they also gave us a ride to Kawazu station. Even though they don’t speak very good english they are super nice. Its a beautiful small hotel on a small hill, the view is quite nice to the mountains and to the ocean as well. The hotel has two private onsens, which can be used basically whole day and night.

If you go there by train you need to walk up a small hill which can be quite hard with luggages.
