Hotels With Pools in Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan

Stayed here during my trip and overall it was a very pleasant experience. The hotel is very clean and modern, and the location is excellent with easy access to Minatomirai attractions. The view from the hotel is also very nice, especially at night 🌃 The staff were polite and service was smooth throughout the stay. Facilities are well maintained and the room was comfortable. However, one thing to note is that the hotel is quite strict with check-out timing. I requested for a late check-out (even just 1 hour), but it was not allowed. So do plan your timing properly to avoid rushing. Overall, still a great hotel and I would recommend it for its cleanliness, location, and comfort 👍

The location is excellent, very close to Sakuragicho. We could easily walk to Minatomirai 21 for a lovely evening stroll and to admire the night views. There's a massive shopping mall nearby that has absolutely everything you could need. Even the pedestrian overpasses are equipped with escalators, which is super convenient! Hotel service was impeccable; they even left two extra sets of toiletries right outside my door, which was a nice surprise, haha! I highly recommend staying here! The value for money is absolutely spot on. Plus, just a left turn out of the hotel entrance leads you to a bustling street packed with delicious local snacks!

Excellent location and fantastic views! The hotel itself feels a bit dated, and the toilet rooms don't have a spot to put your phone. Overall, though, the facilities are very well-maintained. The staff's English isn't great, but they are polite.

This hotel offers great value for money. It's my second time in Hakone, and compared to the hotels by Lake Ashi, this one feels much newer. The rooms are quite spacious for Japan, with a 1.5-meter bed and a 1.1-meter bed side-by-side. The toilet is separate from the shower, which is a wet/dry design. The view from the window is also lovely. The hot springs are on the sixth floor, featuring both outdoor mountain-view onsens and indoor ones. The outdoor area also has a single and a double private pool, which is a nice touch. Overall, it's pretty good. The breakfast and dinner are more Japanese style, with ramen, miso soup, sashimi, and sweet shrimp. The mattress in the room was really comfortable. All in all, a great stay. Right opposite the hotel is the Okada Museum of Art, which I highly recommend visiting, especially as a Chinese person. The first floor of the five-story museum is dedicated to Chinese porcelain from various dynasties, with the oldest being a green-glazed阁楼 (pavilion) from the 2nd-3rd century BC (Former Han Dynasty), standing about a meter tall. I won't say too much more, as photography of the artifacts is not allowed.

Exiting Minatomirai Station from Exit 6, take the escalator on your left up to the 2nd floor. Go straight (don't turn left) until you reach the main hall, then turn left and follow the Tokyu Yokohama Bay Hotel signs. Go up a few steps, walk to the end, and through the glass doors. You'll then be on a connecting corridor that leads to the hotel lobby; walk about a hundred meters, and you're there. It's incredibly convenient. The location is excellent, with sightseeing boats right downstairs. It's also very easy to walk across the Goddess Bridge to the Red Brick Warehouse. For daily shopping, food, and drinks, you can head to the area near the subway station. The Keikyu bus to Haneda Airport costs 1000 yen per person and stops right at the hotel's ground floor entrance. You can book your bus time a day in advance with the concierge on the first floor, which is very handy if you have a lot of luggage. I hope to stay here again next time.

The hotel boasts extremely convenient transportation, just a 10-minute walk from the subway station. It's perfectly situated in Yokohama Chinatown, offering abundant dining options with plenty of Chinese restaurants. As an established 5-star hotel, the staff are incredibly friendly and attentive, and the facilities are equally upscale and impressive. They even offer services in Chinese. Plus, it's only a 5-minute stroll to the seaside and Yamashita Park. I would absolutely choose to stay here again on my next visit to Yokohama. The rooms are quite spacious, especially for Japanese standards.

We stayed in a few Ryokans but this Yoshiike Ryokan is the best because the room have large window that allow fresh mountain air to flow into the room and the futons are incredibly comfortable and warmed. We came in January when the weather dropped to 0c and the room had heaters. The onsen is beautiful and natural. My wife loved the gardens. And the receptionists are very polite and happy. We loved happy people that makes your money well spend. Will come back in the winter.

Overall, my experience staying at the hotel near Gora Station was quite good, but there are a few details to be aware of. The hotel provides a shuttle bus, but getting from Gora Station to the shuttle bus stop requires carrying luggage up and down stairs (20 steps each way) and through an underground tunnel. I wasn't sure if it was possible to walk across the street to the shuttle bus stop. The shuttle bus stop is shared by two lines, so you must check before boarding whether the bus goes to the hotel or somewhere else. The last bus departs at 4:40 PM. The first bus in the morning departs from the hotel to Gora Station at 9:28 AM, a 25-minute journey. The shuttle bus timetable is shown in the photo. I originally planned to have dinner at Gora Station at 5 PM, but since all the restaurants were closed and it was already dark, I had to take the bus included in my 2-day pass back to the hotel (take the 839 bus to Ten-yu and then walk) to eat. The hotel is on the 840 stop. However, the hotel restaurant requires advance reservations, so I ultimately chose to walk 5 minutes to Ten-yu (there's an indoor skybridge connecting the 5th floor of 138 Yunessun-mae) and eat there. Although the hotel is close to Tianyou Hotel, it's located below the road, requiring an uphill walk, and the lighting is poor at night, so I could only use my phone flashlight. The hotel staff were very welcoming and patiently answered my questions, but communication required using Google Translate. The hotel's hot spring facilities are excellent, with five pools that can comfortably accommodate 5 to 7 people. Note that you need to turn on the hot water in the shower and sink in the room yourself; instructions are given upon check-in. Overall, despite some inconveniences, the hotel's service and facilities were satisfactory.

The curtains are not completely shading in the morning. It is easy to be awakened. The sauna or swimming have to bring your own swimsuit. I forgot to bring it. So if you rent it, you need money. The clerk can communicate in English. This can also be used for bathing facilities.

The hotel environment is fantastic, with ocean-view rooms where you can see the sea right from your small balcony. Both the sunrise and sunset are absolutely stunning. Before coming, I saw some reviews saying this hotel was a bit old, but I haven't felt that way at all since checking in. I'm not sure what standards those online reviews are using, but personally, I found it to be very clean. I even fell in love with their hairdryer here; it's a really good one!
