“Amazing and fabulous stay”

Amazing hotel, it is right on top of a hill top facing the Suruga Bay and a forest across the road. I felt warmly welcomed when I arrived at the hotel, truly Japanese hospitality at its best. Reception kindly gave my son a coin to have a free play on the gachapon machine. We arrived on time for drinks and snacks which were free flow at the lounge with fantastic view of the bay. There is also a large counter with amenities that are provided out of the norm like various hair serum beads, 2 types of facial wash sachets and cute yukata for beads. It is also linked to a secluded part of the bay which seem to be largely accessible only by hotel guests. The room was clean and bright. Things were working well and thoughtfully placed e.g plastic hangers in the bathroom for wet clothes. Fruit ice lollies were provided at the onsen station . Futon was one of the most fluffy and comfortable I have tried . Tried booking for dinner at the hotel but it was fully booked so concierge gave us a list of great eating places around the hotel which was fabulous as they were kind of uplifting the entire neighbourhood. As we cldnt speak Japanese, they helped us to made a reservation for dinner at a local joint and that is another review of amazing food :)). Lastly, I need to mention the breakfast, it was so so amazing. There are “live “ stations such as donuts fried on the spot, onigiri freshly made, fruits cut and grilled fish. Best breakfast ever and although the hotel cost more 30% than my previous stay with 2 meals provided. The quality of food and service made this stay so much more enjoyable and value. Unfortunately pool was closed and I cldnt review. Thank you so much Hotel Ginsui. Will be back

“Hotel com uma bela vista onde o imperador também fiquei”

Ficamos lá no final do ano de 2004. Viajamos em torno-Izu durante vários dias sem reserva quaisquer hotels. Quando chegamos nesta área, foi a chover um pouco. Pedimos ryoukans e hotéis uma por uma se tinham disponibilidade naquela noite. A maioria deles estavam cheios ou simplesmente rejeitada-nos.… Mais

Ficamos lá no final do ano de 2004. Viajamos em torno-Izu durante vários dias sem reserva quaisquer hotels. Quando chegamos nesta área, foi a chover um pouco. Pedimos ryoukans e hotéis uma por uma se tinham disponibilidade naquela noite. A maioria deles estavam cheios ou simplesmente rejeitada-nos. Após um longo período de tempo, chegamos a este grande hotel e o recepcionista mencionados ainda tinham quarto disponível. Desde que foi bastante tarde, eles não poderiam fornecer-nos jantar. Lembrava-me que o preço foi muito caro. Mas para um hotel onde o imperador do Japão ficado antes, e com quarto com uma bela vista, e um bom café da manhã, era tudo vale a pena!

I am very impressed with the staff who checked in for us. Very friendly and informative. Knowing that we would not have dinner in the hotel, he was very keen to recommend a few eating places which fitted our preference. We particular like the small rocky beach down the hotel which allowed us to do some snorkeling. The onsen had a good variety of pools too. The variety of complimentary afternoon drinks were unexpected and was a nice touch. The chilling cold local beer was just right for me after a hot morning. If I have to comment, we find long black hair over the toilet when checking in. Whilst free parking is available. The approximately 10 unoccupied spaces closer to the entrance were blocked off that forced me to parking a distance away. It is not nice during the occasional rainy days. We did not really see those spaces ever parked.

“Gorgeous views and service”

Pros: This hotel's view is so incredible. We enjoyed the view from our room and the restaurant and each time took our breath away.

Pros: This hotel's view is so incredible. We enjoyed the view from our room and the restaurant and each time took our breath away. The staff were very attentive and even gave small gifts to our children. The Japanese style rooms were lovely and the futon beds on the floor were very comfortable. The onsen was relaxing, well maintained and family friendly. Cons: We were a little disappointed to find all the pools drained during our stay. We were hoping the kids could enjoy the indoor pool but it was empty. Also the beach at the bottom of the hotel had quite a lot of rubbish on it. Plastic and rusted parts all over the rocky beach. It didn't seem safe for children. Maybe a beach best to look at from the hotel, but not visitors up close! We still loved our stay though.
