A magical experience. From the moment we were picked up from Mishima station by the free hotel shuttle, to the time we left, it was all amazing. The hotel has a stunning position on the cliff edge overlooking the sea and sitting outside on a wintry evening with a glass of wine and our feet in the warm foot bath, watching the sun set over the water, was one of the highlights of our time in Japan. Our room was better than the pictures had led us to believe and had everything we could want, including an incredible view. Dinner and breakfast were buffet style and very comprehensive. There were some interesting walks nearby and the local bus trip over to Shimoda after our stay was sensational. It's a beautiful part of Japan, we enjoyed our stay and would happily return.

High on Flash!
Flash hotel with an incredible view! Each place has got a bath tub on the balcony. The rooms are newly renovated and as everyone says they have an open bar and they allow you to take drinks upstairs, didn’t eat at restaurant. Everything closes nearby at 2:30 so I suggest you bite the expensive bullet and get the meal plan. Location is great inbetween dogashima and zojima. Definitely geared for Japanese couples. Public was clean and also had a nice view. It’s one of those places you would recommend to people but I’d probably not go back. Why? Just not cozy and it’s a bit expensive! The rooms are done up by a designer with ikea like furniture and our big room has 7 elevation changes. You will bust a shin getting into your bed:). The balcony is small so the small tub is the balcony There are other places on the island to get a more quaint feel. It’s basically like going to your friends house who collects beautiful modern furniture and just wishing for a comfy couch to look a the view. It’s great for the modern Japanese couple looking to impress!

Service staff was very helpful in helping to converse with rental car company. Great view of the sea from room. Breakfast was very good and there was a bar with free drinks (alcohol included) for hotel guest to bring back to their room.
