Very nice hotel with an open air private onsen (hot spring). The location is close to the beach and the Main Street. Easy to travel to anywhere in Shirahama. The family room is very big and I believe it can fit up to 5-6 people. We enjoyed our stay very much, thank you Hotel Shirahamakan.

Located right on the beach, with excellent baths featuring what appeared to be natural rock formations caused by long exposure to the hot spring water. While the building themselves are a bit dated, a lot of effort has been put into refurbishing them, and everything was clean and comfortable.

Good location & value for money. We stayed in the family room for 5 with open-air bath (kids loved it). Free parking is available, very close to the beach, 1-2 mins walk to Family Mart & 3 minutes walk to Gourmet City (opens 24 hours).

A good experience ”

Located opposite shirara beach, it was convenient to find and free parking is available on site. The staff were warm and helpful and immediately provided us with a change of room when we informed that the toilet bidet was not working. The onsen in a big barrel was interesting and very nice to soak in. If you turn right around the corner of the hotel, there is a nice pool bar, do go and talk to the bar master as he is a pool champion. Overall, it was a good experience, even though it was lacking cleanliness at some areas and dinner/breakfast were only adequate. Not for fussy travelers.

It was a dated hot spring hotel. Everything seems aged and yet the room we had taken had two hot spring tubs for relaxation with privacy. We didn't use the public one but I guessed it should be ok. Breakfast and dinner were included in our package . We didn't use breakfast because the time was 8:00 latest so we didn't bother to take but dinner was served in our room. Both ladies seving us were very friendly. Good was ok not particularly outstanding, but good enough after s short hot spring bath it was good enough.

Traditional but...”

It's rather old and not well maintained. My son hurt his toe under the hot spring due to rough stone and we're scared by a cockroach in the bathing area! However, the Japan meals (dinner and breakfast) were excellent, very traditional and fine. Well they don't serve coffee though! The room layout is also very traditional with a foot bath at the balcony facing the beach... well not seeing the beach directly because of the bushes. You will like it if you are a fan of Japanese style hotel.

Hotel is thoughtful to have a place to inflate your floats n store them in a room at the entrance. There is a wash down area with clogs tt you can wear when you enter the hotel if your feet is wet after the wash down. Hotel deco is a humorous mix period of thing from 60 years ago till present but they are all functional. Hotel room is clean and ventilation is good. Things are old but good. They dont serve food but there are good food joints nearby, Eg Restaurant Sakakura, Ramen shop, Family mart, etc.
