I stayed at the Asian Taste Twin room with an outdoor bath (アジアンテイストツイン・露天風呂付客室). For all the room's amenities, I think it was relatively affordable. There was enough space in the room for luggage. There were 2 chairs and a table by the window with a nice view of the sea. There was a closet which provided pajamas and indoor wear. There was a refrigerator, a hot water kettle, and a capsule coffee machine (it was my first time staying at a ryokan/hotel in Japan with one). My favorite part of the room was the outdoor bath, which was nice to soak in while looking at the sea and hearing the waves crash through the shore. The shower area is the Japanese style one where you have to sit down in front of the faucet. Both the shower area and the bath feels like you are visible from the outside, but the room is well-covered and it is pretty high up, no need to worry. The room was cool enough (even in the summer), and the beds were comfortable, so I really had a nice sleep. I also recommend taking advantage of the public bath in their sister hotel (Yoyoen/Yuyuen) right across the street. It is free as long as you are staying at Shinyu no Yado Sazana. Their open outdoor bath on the 5th floor with an infinity pool-like view of the sea and the horizon was spectacular. I wish I could have stayed soaking in it for longer, if there wasn't any danger of overheating. I believe you can keep coming back to it anytime, but as with any public bath in Japan, there is a schedule whether the bath is men-only or female-only, so check with the front desk beforehand. I was lucky that when I checked-in at 2pm, it was men-only from 3pm-9pm, so perfect timing. For food, I opted for the room-only reservation, because I like walking around to explore and eat out. This time I regret that decision because there weren't that much restaurants or places to eat around the area, apart from a convenience store, a McDonald's, and 1 local restaurant that was open (but it had limited menu and it did close early). It might be bad timing because it was during Obon period, so a lot of businesses go on holiday. I recommend making sure you either have your own food or just opt-in for the breakfast/dinner course at the hotel. For activities, there is nothing much to do around the area. There is a Sea Garden Ikeriji a couple of steps away, but it's mostly rocks, and I think it's more targeted towards kids. There is no actual beach. I think the area is really meant for you to just soak in the onsen and relax at your hotel/ryokan. The staff were friendly and accomodating. Even though I didn't request to use the shuttle back to the station, they offered it to me and drove me back even if I was the only one in the shuttle. Also, make sure to inform them if you are going out at night or in the early morning, so they can bring your shoes out.

“High C/P value ”

Free transportation between hotel and train station. 3 public hot springs in 2 buildings. There are sea view in the old building. The dinner and breakfast are so luxury. The price for extra alcohol is very reasonable.

“Nuovo boutique hotel di nuovissima con la cucina Giapponese fusion”

Abbiamo soggiornato in questo hotel boutique per una notte. Navetta dell'Hotel era disponibile per il prelevamento alla stazione di Izu-Inatori e il tragitto era di circa 10 minuti. Hotel era nuovo di zecca e aperto solo di recente per 3-4 mesi. Lo stile era non tradizionali e di grande effetto. La camera era più piccola di quello che pensavo. Il bagno era bello e attrezzato con articoli da bagno eleganti. L'hotel dispone di 3 sale onsens privati per la prenotazione. Ma gli ospiti possono utilizzare le onsens più grandi presso l'hotel gemellato proprio di fronte alla strada (solo alcuni passi di distanza). Onsens presso l'hotel gemellato era grande, bella e grande vista mare, mentre le onsens private in Sazana erano accoglienti e hanno anche una bella vista sul mare. La cena era buona e tende ad essere un po' di stile Giapponese fusion e creativa. Personalmente, mi piacciono la più tradizionale cucina Giapponese. Nel complesso, l'hotel era bello, nuovo di zecca e con ottimi servizi, tranne prezzo potrebbe essere leggermente in alto lato. Sarà adatto a giovani coppie che cercano per boutique hotel.

“Modern and simple Onsen hotel”

Visited on a Saturday after work. In summary, this is a modern onsen hotel without the traditional Japanese Ryokan goodies and services but can be a good visit for a short getaway weekend out of Tokyo into the rural area. The place is quite new and apparently was (renamed?) opened in 2015. The entrance is small but once inside, the lounge area is spacious and warming. The Japanese style room is clean and spacious but you won't find the traditional services where they serve you Japanese sweets and tea. The place can be very comfortable for a group of 4-6. The onsen area was under renovation and the water was mildly warm, not exactly my preference as I prefer my onsen to be quite hot. Again the dress area was simple with all the amenities that you can find in an onsen hotel. The food was excellent so are the services. The seafood French course was both attractive and delicious as you can see from the photos. The location is a bit distant from Tokyo so not as convenient but if closer I'd definitely be back.
