Komatsuya Hachinobou
6,3/10 Good - Based on 3 reviews
Komatsuya Hachinobou is a century-old inn in Izu Nagaoka Onsen that blends sukiya-style Japanese architecture with a calm atmosphere. The property has 42 Japanese-style rooms in timber sukiya style designed to encourage relaxation; several open onto small verandas overlooking the grounds. Seasonal flowers and over 500 artworks are displayed throughout public spaces and the lobby, giving guests informal areas to stroll. It functions as a ryokan with onsen in Izu while maintaining modern conveniences such as free Wi‑Fi in public areas and rooms.
The hot-spring facilities include separate large indoor baths and outdoor baths for men and women, plus a private open-air bath that can be reserved at no charge; private-use slots are typically allocated in 40-minute periods for small groups, allowing a discreet soak. The onsen draws on local Izu waters with a gentle mineral profile, and staff oversee bathing etiquette and reservations to protect privacy. The ryokan accepts small dogs on request and offers a courtesy shuttle from the nearby station with advance booking.
Dining follows traditional ryokan patterns with three stay plans—dinner and breakfast, breakfast only, or room-only—and menus emphasize seasonal seafood and regional produce prepared in a measured, local style. Additional guest services include parking, luggage assistance, optional massages and cycling arrangements for exploring nearby attractions such as Shuzenji Temple and coastal routes. Check-in is in the mid-afternoon with check-out late morning; the inn presents practical, locally rooted hospitality for visitors seeking a clear, traditional ryokan experience and a ryokan with private onsen Shizuoka.
