4-Star Hotels in Shimane Prefecture, Japan

This is a huge garden-style hot spring hotel. Following the signs, you can even crawl through caves to discover the former residence of the Emperor…it's incredibly hidden!! I bet many people didn't even find it! Hahaha! I also experienced mixed-gender bathing, which was quite enjoyable. The beauty bath is great! There's a foot bath right at the entrance…and a free JR shuttle bus…Apart from the food being so-so, everything else was perfect!

The hotel is very new. We stayed in a lake view bungalow (two beds + tatami mats). It was a bit crowded for four people, but the floor-to-ceiling windows and the view of Lake Shinji made it worth full marks! The lobby on the first floor of the hotel is large, very new, and full of sunshine, but you don't often encounter service staff. You need to take the trolley yourself and return your luggage to the designated location on the first floor. The architectural design is a bit strange in that there is no door, but a small The main entrance, as well as two side entrances. It was a bit difficult to find the entrance at first. It is strange that guests need to pay for parking (500 yen per day, the ticket must be presented to the counter for magnetization) The public bath on the top floor is good, the facilities are very new, the space is large, the view is good, and the temperature is moderate. We like the casual clothes provided in the room (not a yukata, just a black top + pants), which can be worn to bathe or sleep in It is comfortable, but it cannot be worn in the public areas on the first floor and the restaurant on the second floor. We stayed during the Christmas period. There was only a buffet restaurant to choose from. The breakfast was very good. The menu options were not very large but the dishes were exquisite and delicious. It should be noted that there are very few restaurants around the hotel. If you stay here, you don’t want to eat expensive food on the second floor. Buffet restaurant, it is best to finish your meal during the trip and then return to the hotel.

The 5 private baths are really great and you can go there anytime. There is also free ramen in the evening. The hotel service is very good and foreign language communication is no problem. The only drawback is that the buffet food in the morning and evening is not very varied and tastes light, which is not very edible.

It was a great experience, very much like a budget Japanese inn, with tatami floors throughout the building, a natural hot spring on the rooftop where you can soak in the hot spring and watch the stars and the night view, free massage chairs that were great, and a variety of free food. The last entry for breakfast is at 9:00, so remember to get up early for breakfast. You need to queue up to enter at 7:00 on Saturday morning. I like the homemade seafood bowl and all-you-can-eat crabs the most. Every dish is very Japanese and the fruits are very sweet. The hotel is affordable and I would like to stay in the same group of hotels again if I have the chance.

A great hot spring hotel, right next to Izumo Taisha Shrine. There are many restaurants around, but they are all closed at night. The hotel's courtyard is exquisite, the hot springs are average, and the food is average. The best thing is the location and courtyard. It is an old building and the service is good.

The station was within walking distance, close to Lake Shinji, and above all, the extraordinary space that was warehouse was wonderful.

The room is spacious, bright and comfortable, with views of the Tamatsukuri Onsen street. The hotel is well-equipped with two indoor hot springs (both with open-air hot springs) available, one on the first floor and the other a viewing hot spring.

very nice! There is a Family Mart nearby and it is a short walk to Izumo Taisha Shrine and the Izumo Historical Museum! The receptionist was very nice. Dinner and breakfast were all buffets. They were delicious. The hot springs were very comfortable. However, there were too many people and I didn’t have the chance to soak in a private hot spring. There were also free ramen and kimono rentals. It was a good choice to go to Izumo Taisha Shrine~ It’s close to the Izumo tram station. It’s a little far away from the main shrine but the road is quite easy to walk!

The view from the room was very good and the meal was very delicious in the morning and evening. I think it would be nice to be able to buy night meals and sake because there was no convenience store nearby. (There are some)
