Kurofune Hotel

Clean room with the ocean view. We will come back again

The room with the private onsen was fantastic! I enjoyed my stay and the staff were so kind and helpful 😊

Phenomenal, phenomenal! This was extremely comfortable, wonderful staff, lovely room with a great view of the bay. We saw the fireworks for the Black Ship Festival. The balcony onsen was extremely private and comfortable. Would highly recommend that this be your number one choice of hotel if you are in Shimoda.

A very quiet place, perhaps the season, walkable distance to train station. The ride along the coast was enjoyable. I had the best Japanese breakfast there overlooking the sea! Well arranged, excellent taste. A great sushi place across at the wharf at the end of the building and also great seafood to be had in town.

The staff were so friendly. Our room had a private onsen on the balcony and it was wonderful. We loved the Japanese style room. The hotel is quite old, the hallways smell terrible but luckily the rooms are good. They charge extra for pool(550yen) and all other amenities which was a bit of a surprise.

Amazing Japanese style inn (ryokan). Just a 15 minute walk from Izukyu-Shimoda station. Very welcoming, rooms are spacious and beautifully styled.

Beautiful ocean views rooms also the hot springs . The welcome drink and night activities wine lounge are great. I hope hotel provide shuttle bus access!

Musty, dusty, rusty, and crusty…we stayed in the Japanese style room with the onsen. The room itself was great (minus a musty smell that permeated from the hallway) and the onsen was amazing. The lobby was dingy and needed an update about a decade ago. The hallways smelled like they cleaned the carpets and they never dried completely. The hotel was also like the Winchester house, like wings just kept being added on and some of them you could get to from one side of the floor floor and some of them you had to go down the floor and across to get around. It did have a kids play area downstairs, laundry, machines, and an arcade upstairs. It does say that shimoda beach is a two minute drive away however it is more like a 20 minute drive away. The area in front of the hotel is beautiful and great to walk but it did not make up for the grungy hotel.

Most beautiful view in Shimoda. Room with sea view wad amazing and the tatami room was very big and very clean.

Fantastic hotel with great amenities. We had a sea view room and I think almost all rooms have that. We enjoyed the Onsen that had everything one needs including small sauna. The complementary soft drinks in the cosy lobby was a nice gesture and appreciated. Staff were very helpful and accommodating our requests and questions. Our 11year old daughter found plenty entertainment, we all loved the skin care fish for example. Keen to go back. Also Shimoda is beautiful, lots to do, i.e. beautiful walks, rope way.

We love to soak in hot springs - but the water has to be hot, hot, hot!! The onsen at this hotel was not hot enough for me. Although the location is very convenient - walking distance everywhere - I will not stay here again because of the onsen. The staff was AMAZING!!!! So kind and helpful - never ever will experience this type of service in the USA!!!

Large comfortable rooms. We had an excellent view of the harbour

Nice hotel in the center of historical part of Shimoda. Onsen was great! Reasonable prices and good hotel staff will make your journey unforgettable. Also plum blossom festival in February is worth visiting!

Even though the building is old, it was still well maintained and was a pleasure to stay in. The room was clean and well presented. The private onsen bath was amazing and over looked the port and ships. The breakfast was great.

Great big Japanese room. Exterior of the hotel was outdated

Nothing special because our room was self-service rate. Hot spring bath was Ok, not great. The employees were all nice. One bad service was that they charged us $3+ for each small bucket of ice even the hotel doesn’t have a ice machine.

Nice onsen inside hotel room, good to have Japanese style breakfast to start the day

Tired hotel that doesn’t cater well for international travellers. Rooms were not serviced during the stay and furnishings were very worn. Shimoda itself was very disappointing. We visited in early July and were looking forward to walking through Perry Road’s cafe’s and Jazz bars. However, it was like visiting a ghost town, with nothing open. Really disappointing. It’s a long way off the beaten track to visit here, but I would not recommend it unless you just want to come and surf at one of the beach locations several miles from Shimoda itself.

チェックインの説明が長すぎる。 USBすら部屋にない。

施設は古いが古き良き時代の日本の感じで良かった。7階（宅急便置場周辺をもっとアレンジ出来れば・・・）レストランの高級な感じとマッチするのでは・・・ 共用温泉は年寄りに階段はきついかなと思いましたが行けば素晴らしい眺望でサウナも有り良し◎。スタッフは多くが外国人でしたが教育が行き届いているなと感じました。Happy hourのドリンクも楽しめ露天風呂付きでこれならば良いかなと！
