No issues with location, service or cleanliness. Just felt the room as well as food and drink were a little overpriced.

The hotel was quite good, but the one problem was that the air conditioning wasn’t strong enough outside the rooms. Other than that, The prince shimoda hotel was quite good

In side the hotel some areas should be repaired and they are should be proper cleaning inside the premises. Critical attention to detail needed!!!

I enjoyed my stay at the Shimoda Prince Hotel. If I ever go back to Shimoda I would consider staying there again. Pros: The room was big and comfortable, and based on the layout I think all rooms have a ocean view. My room had all the desired amenities, including a mini-fridge, towels, and even a rack for hanging clothes. I enjoyed the men's onsen. The breakfast buffet is good, although expensive. Fortunately there are some small restaurants nearby that offer affordable, tasty meals. Cons: As other reviews have pointed out, the maintenance leaves something to be desired, and the hotel can be rough around the edges. Also, the food is a bit expensive.

GOOD: The hotel is right on a beautiful sandy beach. It's a bit remote from bars, restaurants etc. The rooms are fairly large. The food was above average though not great. NOT SO GOOD: The hotel is very old and really needs to be torn down and rebuilt-especially to be charging as much as they are. I think the prices they are asking are ridiculous. My wife and I enjoyed our stay here-it's not terrible. But FOR THE PRICE I was disappointed

This is a hotel that has not been updated since 1974. The location is the best part of the hotel as I am unsure if there are any other beach front hotels in Shimoda. The room needs a major facelift in the rooms. The door to your room requires a physical metal key! The shuttle service has limited pick up times so reach out to the hotel and check. They also require a reservation otherwise the taxi ride is about 28,000 Yen. There are two restaurants in the hotel. They are pricy for what you get. There are only a handful of restaurants that are walking distance.

With our 2.5 year-old toddler, we stayed at this vintage hotel whose best asset was its stunning beachfront. Our initial room on the first floor was rather worn and not well-maintained, which concerned us. However, the front desk staff promptly moved us to a much better room. Their responsiveness was truly appreciated. Despite the room issue, the hotel’s amazing beach made our stay pleasant. With its fantastic location and captivating views, a bit of renovation could certainly elevate the experience for future guests.

We stayed during the last week of June. It was already over 30 degrees but the beach was disappointing because it was low-tide during the daytime and extremely rocky. The hotel has a pool but it won’t be available until mid-July. What a waste of a facility that could’ve been enjoyed by the guest. The hotel ended up only as a place to sleep as there are no other things you can enjoy at the hotel unless you come in during peak (crowded) season.

The hotel is a little old but was clean and nice. He view was amazing and staying in a room with a terrace was a great choice. The downside to this location were food and transportation. The public bus was infrequent and there were only a few limited free shuttles to the train station. Taxis from the station were about ¥2,500. The hotel has limited food options as well. The breakfast buffet was nice but a bit overpriced for what was on offer. There was nothing at the hotel for lunch and dinner had only three options. You also had to reserve dinner and breakfast so could not be spontaneous. This location probably works better for people with a car.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at Shimoda Prince Hotel. This huge building is located right on one of the most beautiful beaches in Honshu. The beach itself is clean, quiet and not overpacked even at the highest season due to its remote location. The obvious downside is that this hotels is far from everything with very few dining options. Those that are available at the hotel are exorbitantly priced! Back to the hotel itself, it is a relatively old building with dated design that turns its hallways into a greenhouse. All end up almost 10C warmer than rooms, while the in-room A/C struggled greatly. When set to 22C, the room never reached below 24.3C and most times it was hotter than that. Rooms were extremely spacious by any standard with very comfortable bedding. The provided Yukatas were light and clean to sleep with. There a small working safe but this is a remote hotel and never felt that it would be needed. The bathroom left the most to be desired as its was quite dated and didn't work as smoothly as other hotels in Japan. It did provide a very wide selection of useful amenities though! We have to point out that the staff here was very attentive and friendly. Everything was processed in a timely matter. They also spoke more English than in most places which greatly helped

We stayed 2 nights at this hotel. Our family has 6 people - myself and my husband, and our 4 children (18, 16, 6, 5). We were told we had to get 2 rooms per the occupancy rules so we booked 2 rooms. The rooms were both on the same floor but at opposite ends of the hallway, despite a request to put us close together. When we arrived, one room had a futon (each room had 2 futons) made up into a twin bed. The other room did not. In reality, our entire family could have stayed in one room with both futons made into twin beds as the other beds were doubles and slept two people. After being forced to book 2 rooms, we realized that they expected our 5 year old son to sleep with one of the adults. We asked for the linens to make the futon into a bed and were told it would be an extra charge of 3700 yen per night (for literally one flat sheet, a comforter, and a pillow). We declined and had our son share a bed with a parent. The rooms were also incredibly hot for the entirety of our stay. Even with the temperature turned all the way down on the air conditioning, it never got below 77 degrees F (25C) the entire stay in either room. We were able to get a fan on the second night (there were none left the first night when we asked bc it was so hot) but even then it only dropped it another 2F. It was miserable. If I had not already prepaid for the 2 rooms, we would have gone elsewhere. The breakfast buffet was not very good and pretty pricey (2500 yen per person). Would not stay again.
