Inatori Tokai Hotel Yuen

Staff were amazingly hospitable, the private onsen attached to our room was beautiful with an amazing ocean view. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone who wishes to see what a quiet Japanese town is like bby the seaside while still getting an amazing luxury experience.

Amazing views from the room that are compounded by the private outdoor hot spring bath. Room was expansive and well equipped. The kaiseki dinner and breakfast arrangements were extensive, filling and exemplar of the local seafood and produce from the area. Truly a magnificent experience for seafood lovers and those seeking a coastal retreat.

No problems with the accommodation but do note that there is limited English speaking staff. You will need to factor that in if you are intending to have a seamless experience. However, the staff make every effort to ensure your stay is comfortable.

Nice room with room onsen

The onsen/futon area is very hot so a bit hard to sleep. There are also charges for some amenities starting from Sep 2023 onwards.

Just right in front of the sea. There is convenience store and eatery within walking distance. Staff is helpful and courteous. There is coin operated washing machine and dryer with detergent provided

All was good

Location is perfect- right on the ocean, so you fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the waves crashing. The room with private outdoor bath was incredible- it was big, comfortable bed, great lighting, privacy on the balcony, and nice amenities. Had dinner and breakfast, which were both delicious and beautifully presented. I had an amazing waitress who very kindly explained to me the various dishes and preparation methods for certain items (some were cooked table side.) Staff was very kind and accommodating- check in and out was easy despite my mangled Japanese and their limited English. Nice little gift shop on site too for souvenirs.

There's some construction on the property near the outdoor baths and certain rooms. An FYI- there is very little going on in Higashiizu besides onsen. It's a very quiet, laidback small town that closes up early, so if your primary goal is relaxation, it's perfect. If you're looking to do more sightseeing, you will need to go elsewhere, but it's very easy to daytrip from here to the other towns along the Izu line.

The staff was super nice and the traditional Japanese room was amazing! We had a private onsen on the balcony with a view of the ocean, it was amazing!

Nice variety of Onsen. Good View. Delicious Food. And friendly and caring staff. A Highlight was the private onsen on the balcony.

The hotel is older, therefore the furniture is a bit worn-out. The Food is delicious but too much to eat.
