“I loved the authentic feel of the old hotel and the room itself. I loved the handcrafted details, the traditional features, and the veranda with a view of the river was sublime. The whole hotel was an incredible place to explore, with its many staircases, corridors, and common rooms. The whole experience felt like a dream. Simply wonderful. There are many amazing restaurants in the vicinity, and there is also the opportunity to visit outdoor onsen in nearby hotels.”
“I stayed at Ryokan Ogawa for 2 nights and I found it really lovely. Great staff, lovely little artistic touches around the place and in the rooms. Everything was quiet and respectful.
I hired a bike to sightsee for a day which was wonderful. Shimoda is great to explore by bike.
The staff are very helpful, English was not great but they went out of their way to help.
All amenities are very clean and tidy. I found this an excellent stay and very economical. Highly recommend.”
“For the value and it being a guesthouse, honestly my expectations were reasonably low. I was very surprised when I arrived and not only was the host kind, but the room was very large and spacious. As a solo female traveler, I loved that the space was both large, and that all entry points had locks to them so I felt safe being there and also leaving my valuables in the room while I was out during the day. The hosts were incredibly kind and understanding and were there to answer any questions I had. The town itself is very small, which is what I wanted, but it is accessible to other areas by train easily and the hosts are willing to drive you places for a small fee. I went to hike and decompress and this guesthouse made my experience a 10/10! Would recommend to anyone visiting Izu!”
