Not an easy find from the train station less than 1km away, but so worth the 700yen cab ride!! We did not know when we would arrive, so did not bother to email ahead for free shuttle. Don't worry, you will find the train station from the hotel in <8min walk. I rarely fill these surveys, but Hiroshi and his family @ Hinodeya are awesome. We arrived direct from climbing Mt. Fuji (1h45min train) extremely tired and well before normal 1500 checkin, hoping we could cleanup and recover from Fuji. My partner and I were welcomed, checked in and on the way to respective baths within 10 min of walking into Ryokan. The bath area is... exactly what I was hoping for. I've been to many baths/Ryokans in the past (lived in Japan for a year) and this one is traditional, Hiroshi set us up with yokatas, showed us entire space (only 12 rooms big). We enjoy cycling and he was generous to loan us 2 bikes when available during our 3 day stay. Breakfast was traditional Japanese fair, served at 8am (western breakfast available). Hiroshi had time to drive us to restaurant, public onsen that he recommended (awesome with mudbath ~850yen).He is totally knowledgeable of where and how to go/do the entire Peninsula. Now, what to do... we went to 7 falls and it was as expected, beautiful, spent 4 hours roundtrip for 90min falls stroll. Later that day on bicycles we discovered in IzuKogen a fantastic 25km hiking trail with a great suspension bridge... all not 20 min bike ride from Ryokan. Enjoy local 1st!
