Name: Arai Ryokan
Rating: 4.6

Overview

Arai Ryokan began operations during the Meiji era. This Ryokan is located in the Shuzenji hot spring and is the oldest hot spring in the Izu Peninsula and has also been selected as one of the best 100 hot springs in Japan.

Because the third generation owner of this Ryokan got along well with many writers and artists, many creative Japanese arts and writings were born in the Ryokan.
The Japanese garden, loved by many famous artists and selected by Michelin, tells us the about the turning of the seasons.

The building itself is registered as a cultural heritage property. It gives you a nostalgic feeling as you are transported back in Taisho period.

“Tenpyo Bath” is made of 1000 year old Taiwanese cypress.
The quality of water is guaranteed and you can enjoy the playful interior that was created by a master carpenter – The pillars, ceiling, and glass wall will help see beautiful carps in a pond next to the bath. The hot spring will relax your body and mind.

Sitting at the terrace of the building and feeling the breeze while listening to the sound of the running waters of the Katsura river, you can relax in the bamboo garden, read a book, or do nothing at all. Just unwind in the tranquil moment.

Thank you for taking the night out with breakfast. Thank you for being willing to respond to the last change. First of all, the ryokan itself was a really wonderful structure, and the view from the room and the bath were all satisfied comfortably. The breakfast in the room was very good and Nakai's service was kind and I could spend it very comfortably. I would like to ask you about the autumn leaves season someday.

Read more 文化財の立派な建物でしたが、消毒したのかしていないのか分からない館内用のスリッパとトイレのスリッパがどうしても嫌でした。大浴場も小さくてがっかりしてしまいました。接客なども形通りやっているだけと感じてしまいました。ただ食事は板長さんが頑張って作っているのだろうなと感じましたし、美味しかったです。宿全体の印象は文化財という事に胡座をかいているという印象でした。

It was a wonderful building for cultural assets, but I didn't like the slippers for the hall and toilet slippers that I didn't know if they were disinfected or not. The public bath was also small and disappointed. I felt that I was just doing customer service. However, I felt that Mr. Bancho worked hard to make the meal, and it was delicious. The impression of the inn as a whole was that it was a cultural asset.

Bath

Enjoy the Shuzenji hot spring, with its alkalinity and its colorless clear water that is said to be beneficial for your skin. You can feel its effect since the water comes from the fountain’s source.

◆Tenpyo Public Bath: 
The Tenpyo Bath is made from 1000 year old Taiwanese cypress trees and was completed in 1934. This is a masterpiece in many aspects: style, material and technique. 

◆Ayame Bath: Shaped like an Iris, you can enjoy watching fish swim around you while you take a bath.
