Ratings   (explanation of our rating system)

Global rating :     
This hotel is a little worn out, and could use some reforming. On the other hand, it is isolated on a mountain, away from the agitation of the coast, and offer a nice onsen with a great view on Miharayama. If you have a car, staying in this hotel is recommended.

Size :    
The men's outside bath is a long rectangle, about 2 meters wide and 6 meters long. The women's one is partially covered. Both sides have a large, inside bath, which is under a concrete ceiling and not very appealing.

View :     
While the outside baths are nice, nothing more, they offer a fantastic view. The hotel is located on a mountain, above a completely flat forest, with the large Miharayama volcano in the background. If the weather is clear - there are often clouds, unfortunately - the view is really stunning.

Area :      
Biggest of the Izu islands, with a circumference of 52 km, Oshima is also the most accessible of those islands: it takes just 1h45 by jetfoil, and 6h15 by ferry (traveling overnight to go there). Many interesting spots make Oshima a great destination for the week-end. The island is dominated by Miharayama, one of the biggest active volcano in the world, which reaches an altitude of 764 meters; other attractions include a nice zoo, the Tsubaki Camelia Garden (this flower being the symbol of Ooshima), Habu-Minato (a small fishing harbor south of the island), the beaches and of course the onsen.
