Overall Ratings & Reviews Awashima Hotel

Everything about this experience of the hotel on the island was wonderful. From the staff to the amenities and the views are to die for! The onsen was one of my favorite parts. They did not discriminate against my tattoos but we asked kindly if it was acceptable and they suggested going later at night. My one bit of knowledge I would like to share is that the beds are very very hard.

Easily one of the best hotels I've every stayed at. The staff is courteous, helpful, and very professional. Despite its age, the hotel does not feel old or worn out - I was pleasantly surprised by how well maintained, clean, and neat everything was. The rooms were generously spacious, offered an amazing view of Mt. Fuji in the early morning, and a wonderful view of the bay at night. The hotel's French restaurant was absolutely fabulous and each meal was a delight. The breakfast buffet was similarly enjoyable to the fullest. I did not try the hotel's Japanese restaurant, but hope to return again so I may do so. Inside and out, the hotel has many statues, figurines, and paintings to enjoy; it really does feel like staying in a small museum. The lounge has a wonderful view of the bay at sunset and good drinks on offer for adults and children. The aquarium and frog house located on the island are free to access. It has sea lion and dolphin shows, a penguin display, as well as sea urchin and frog feeding. The walk around the island is tranquil. We did not make the walk up to the island's shrine, but hope to on a future visit. The boat to the island is a short, enjoyable journey, but do be careful if you have large, heavy bags. The town around the island is great fun, especially if you are a fan of "Love Live: Sunshine" - don't miss out! The hotel shuttle bus to Mishima Station was comfortable and convenient. I highly recommend Awashima Hotel.

Our stay was amazing, the western style restaurant (with japanese flavours) was incredible both nights we tried it. All staff were incredibly kind and helpful. The views of mount fuji from the room and onsen were breathtaking and it was lovely to stroll around the island. We will be sure to return next time we are in japan, this is a truly special place

What a gem this place is! We stumbled upon this hotel for the first time and only booked one night, but we are anticipating our next visit will be soon and for longer. We took advantage of the complimentary round trip bus ride offered from Mishima train station. The bus ride was about 40 minutes long and took us to the ferry which we hopped aboard for the short ride over to the hotel. The hotel looks like it had its heyday perhaps in the 80s, decorated with vintage furniture and flooring. However it's all well maintained, clean, and is vintage in the most welcoming way. The rooms are spacious even by Western standards and include comfortable furniture, nice tea sets, beds and an incredible view of the Bay and Mt Fuji when the clouds aren't obscuring its view. The food here is FABULOUS as is the staff. It has its own precious collection of artwork displayed throughout the hotel. There is happy hour with complimentary beverages before dining, and the hot springs baths here are memorable and oh-so-calming! Everything about this hotel from the time you first make contact with them is perfection. They sent us welcome messages before our stay, and greeted us with smiles and calm demeanor whenever we encountered them. We are so in love with this place we didn't have time to explore the rest of this tiny island. From the book displayed in the room, there appears to be a variety of nature and animals on the island. It has a small temple area and has a marine park. Go relax here!

Nice views

Wonderful experience. The staff was incredibly nice and helpful, and the hotel itself was beautiful and very clean. The dedicated Love Live! room was wonderful. If you're a fan of the series and plan on visiting Uchiura, I would definitely recommend spending a night or two here.

We love everything about the property. Worth the price.

Magical

Everything is perfect here, other than no washing machine or microwave

The island is very interesting and the hotel itself is beautiful. Most notably, the staff is wonderful - Megumi Ogawason is an amazing concierge, Moon was amazing in all of the restaurants, the chefs were excellent, etc. The art in the hotel is very special, the onsen is beautiful, the food is great, and everyone is helpful and friendly. We couldn't get great views of Mount Fuji because of the weather and the pools on the island were closed, which was disappointing. Everything else was great!

The environment, the service, the hot spring, the view of the Fuji mountain, and everything is awesome, except that there are very few choices for dinner and breakfast at the local area, and the food from the hotel is luxury but expensive.

The hotel is located on an island, which has a wonderful ocean view and Fuji mountain view when it is sunny. The hot spring is so good, and room is spacious. I love this place!!!

There was a guest room next to the ferry pier and all you have to do was to sit in the waiting room (hotel guests only) and wait the ferry to come. The boy at the waiting room was extremely professional and polite, he recognized me immediately and offered seat in the waiting room. Thre ferry operated at a 15-minute interval from morning to afternoon, and it took like seven minutes to get to Awashima. I was greeted by hotel staff immediately when I came ashore and was escorted by one of their managers all the way to room. No redundant checkin procedure was required. All you had to do was to pay attention to the manager's introduction to the hotel amenities/places of interests/general info about the island and sign the check-in form. I dined at the in house restaurant and the foods there were awesome in presentation and taste. The hot spring opens at 5:00AM to midinight and I highly recommend taking the open air hot spring early morning. You will enjoy fantastic experience becoming one with the nature. Check-out experience was parallel to check-in, and the luggage was transported by the hotel boy. All you had to do was to pick them up when you came ashore at the opposite pier.

The staff always made me happy It have very clean and luxurious room and view There are fantastic nature and environment around hotel There is the most fantastic dining service

スタッフが親切、ホテル内に絵画や芸術作品が数多く展示されておりとても良い。残念なのは、島の設備や道路の老朽化が激しい。 去年は島を一周出来たのに今年はできなかった。

淡島の美しい自然とホテルのラグジュアリー感、お風呂や部屋から見える富士山の雄大さで非日常、リゾートを満喫 大変楽しく気持ち良く過ごせました。 スタッフさんの対応も丁寧で、お忙しい中ワインセラーの見学も快く受けて下さり嬉しかったです。 フレンチディナーは沼津の新鮮な魚介が素材を活かした味付けでとても美味しかったです。 お部屋も広々、アメニティも充実していました。 またぜひ利用させていただきたいと思います。

Loved the restaurant food for dinner

施設も贅沢な造りで、お手入れもしっかりされていて、とてもゆったりと過ごせました！ 記念日で宿泊したのですが、従業員の方が、皆さんお声かけをしてくれたり、心遣いをしてくれて、本当に素敵な記念日になりました♪ 食事も美味しく、満足です♪ ぜひ、また宿泊したいです。

今回初めて憧れの淡島ホテルさんに宿泊させていただきましたが、従業員の方々の温かいご対応、広々として清潔感のある素敵なお部屋、美味しい日本料理、そして何よりも絶景の露天風呂で、非常に満足いたしました。正直、帰るのが億劫になるほど楽しい時間で、また近いうちに泊まりに行きたいなと思います！ ありがとうございました！ 松浦果南ちゃんの誕生日を淡島ホテルさんで迎えられて良かったです！

景気が綺麗で波音が聞こえて穏やかな気持ちになる
