ＷＡ亭 風こみち — Local services in Atami

We stayed for one night and utilised the hotel’s free shuttle service from Atami station (and also back to Atami when we left). Their earliest shuttle service time was 2:30pm but if you arrive early, there’s a department store with a lovely bakery cafe on level 2 (there’s other eateries in the department store too if this doesn’t tickle your fancy).||On arrival, we were greeted, shoes were taken off at the front and exchanged for sandals to be used for the rest of the stay around the hotel and a small sweet snack and tea was served. Females got to pick their own yukata design (males just had a standard design already placed in the room) and also got to pick from three different sets of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel.||Staff were all extremely friendly and a few spoke limited English.||The hotel only has 8 rooms and no elevators (you use the stairs). We stayed in ‘Fujibakama’ guest room which was one of their Japanese style rooms with futon (which was made by the staff during dinner) on level two. The entrance, reception and meals are on level four so we went down the stairs to access our floor.||Room itself was clean, all the amenities required for the stay was available including toothbrush and toothpaste. There’s coffee and tea capsules, teabags to make a small pot of tea, small Japanese sweet snack and a bar fridge with orange juice, water, beer and tea (which is complimentary as part of the stay).||The onsen itself is open air with a roofing on top to shelter from elements of the weather which was nice being able to watch the rain from the onsen. For our stay, the inside of the onsen had certain areas that felt a bit slimy (areas where people probably didn’t use a lot) but the centre area was ok. We were also able to ask staff to adjust the temperature of the onsen was too hot.||We experienced both dinner and breakfast at the hotel. Both are very traditional Japanese meals and we’re not talking about the standard stuff you get like sushi or tonkatsu. While there are some elements of the more familiar dishes, there were also the unfamiliar (which we think you should go in expecting); dried small fish, natto, raw baby anchovies.||Overall a wonderful experience to...
