Hotel Sea Shell

Stayed on New Year's Eve 2025. It was my first time, so I made the reservation based on reviews. Stayed in a room called "Sicily." The corner room was spacious with an amazing ocean view, which left me impressed. There was a large sofa, making it feel as comfortable as being at home. Coffee beans were set in the coffee mill, and I enjoyed a delicious cup of coffee. The special New Year's menu had slightly higher pricing than usual but was worth every penny! Seafood, beef fillet, New Year's soba noodles, and unlimited alcohol made for a very satisfying New Year's Eve. At midnight, fireworks lit up over the ocean—it felt like being abroad! Breakfast included light traditional New Year dishes along with souvenirs to take home. Shimoda is known for summer visits; next time I'd love to come during summer vacation!

The breakfast and dinner at this Hotel were very delicious. The dinner portions were just right for women, but not enough for my growing daughter. The open-air bath attached to the Room had many insects due to the natural surroundings. Although the tub had a cover, small insects were floating, so we decided not to use it. There was a spider web above the shower with a fairly large spider, which made us worried it might fall. Since it is a small Hotel, it was very convenient to get to the dining area and parking lot quickly from the Room. We would like to stay again next year, so it would be great if the insects in the bath and spider webs could be reduced.
