    outdated décor

    The hotel shows signs of wear and tear. Navigating the sprawling layout can be a challenge, with hidden rooms and long pathways that may frustrate some guests. Dining options primarily consist of buffet style, which may not cater well to vegetarian preferences, limiting choices for that demographic.

    Positive, The cave onsens are fine with ocean views. Our spacious Japanese-style room was super comfortable, and the staff arranged an awesome complimentary dinner when we arrived late. The breakfast and dinner buffets were delicious and offered a great variety. 🍣

    unique onsen
    cumbersome luggage

    Cave onsen and ocean views

    Staying at Hotel Urashima was a memorable experience! The cave onsens were a highlight, providing stunning ocean views and a unique setting. Relaxing in the hot springs while listening to the waves was truly magical.

    However, navigating the hotel with heavy luggage was a bit of a challenge. The ferry service runs frequently, but managing bags from the parking lot to the hotel was cumbersome. Dining options were also limited—most dishes felt repetitive.

    stunning onsens
    fresh tuna
    confusing layout
    inconvenient transport
    repetitive buffet

    The stay offered a unique experience with stunning sea cave onsens, perfectly complementing the picturesque views from the room. Dining was a highlight, especially the fresh tuna from the local market, though the buffet options might feel repetitive over several days. Navigating the hotel's layout can be tricky. the connections between the buildings can feel convoluted, and transporting luggage from the parking lot adds a layer of inconvenience. Nevertheless, the friendly and helpful staff made our visit enjoyable.

    stunning ocean views
    unique onsen experience
    spacious family room

    urashima offers an excellent view facing the harbor, which made our stay memorable. we enjoyed the unique cave onsens that provide a relaxing experience with breathtaking views, especially during late hours. the massive hotel features plenty of amenities, and the spacious family room we stayed in was clean and comfortable.

    one mild critique is that the dining options felt a bit limited after a couple of nights.

    Had an amazing stay! The cave onsen was breathtaking, and the views were jaw-dropping. However, the buffet choices felt a bit limited after a few days. I'd definitely return!

    breathtaking onsens
    accommodating staff
    repetitive dining

    great experience but dining could be improved

    The cave onsens are breathtaking, providing a unique experience with stunning ocean views that made our stay memorable. The staff were incredibly accommodating and even arranged a complimentary dinner for us upon our late arrival. The spacious Japanese-style room was very comfortable, and the activities like karaoke added fun to our stay. We loved the sea view from our room, making for a relaxing atmosphere throughout our visit.

    However, the dining options felt a bit repetitive after a few days.
