Hot Spring Hotel “Shioji-tei”: A Hidden Paradise on the Toba Bay

Hot Spring Hotel “Shioji-tei”: A Hidden Paradise on the Toba Bay Shiojitei, located on the seaside in Toba City, Mie Prefecture, is a hot spring hotel overlooking the sea and sky of Ise-Shima National Park. All rooms feature panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, offering unique views of the ebb and flow of the Toba Bay and the pearl farming rafts. The hot spring in the hotel is a natural "Pearl Hot Spring". The spring water rich in bicarbonate has skin-beautifying effects, especially the open-air bath that extends to the sea. Bathing in the morning mist is like being in a fairyland. The cuisine uses carefully selected seasonal seafood from the Shima Peninsula, such as Ise lobster and abalone, and is paired with local Matsusaka beef grilled on a teppanyaki grill. This secret place where the sea and hot springs meet is about 90 minutes away by train from Nagoya Station. #MarchGoodPlaces2025
