The Park Hotel Jodogahama

This was a spectacular hotel. We stayed one night as part of Walk Japan. There is plenty to do in the area. The views from the room are amazing. Dinner and Breakfast are buffet style with a wide variety of options. We stayed in a traditional room with tatami mats. Our room had a nice in room bathroom and vanity area. The onsen was very nice as well. I wish we could have had more time to explore the property.

The sea view and the sun rise from the room is spectacular. The room itself is spacious and well laid out (we have Western-style room with sea view). Selection for dinner and breakfast buffet is good quality.

Great place !! Staff were great and very friendly. Room is considered big for my party of 3 . My room has a nice view of the water . Food were great too . Will stay here again

Great location and beautiful premises. reminds me of Yosemite Lodge but for a fraction of a price :) the staff was super helpful and particular the guys in the restaurant!

Amazing hotel. Rooms were spacious with fantastic views over the bay. I am not a fan of futons but the futons and pillows here were the best. Dinner and breakfast were both great.

The location is beautiful and the views from the car park assured us we had chosen well. Check in was helpful and all facilities were fully explained at this time, allowing us to book our dining time.The room was comfortable and traditional; the view, amazing! With an afternoon of sunshine, time was taken to enjoy the view in a temperature controlled setting. There was a beautiful tea set and tea provided along with some complementary snacks and water. The toiletries provided were lovely and I shall certainly be looking to purchase these for my home.Dinner was a Chinese style buffet, with an excellent selection of dishes. Barbecues for the table and delicious sashimi and hand prepared sushi. Soups, stews, salad and more! To follow was an assortment of cakes and ice creams. Staff were very helpful and polite and the food was filling and delicious. We then retired to the hotel bar where we were again greeted by a lovely member of staff.Upon return to our room, futons had been prepared and the room made ready for sleep. These were surprisingly comfortable.Breakfast was also delicious with a huge array of dishes to choose from. Check out was simple and staff were helpful and polite.I will definitely be returning!I

Very scenic views (for ocean facing rooms) and comfortable Japanese style rooms. They also have Western style rooms. The breakfast and dinner buffet was excellent with lots of tasty seafood, but they did not have the famous local oysters during our stay. Beautiful, but steep, walking trails down to Jodogahama Beach. We didn't use the onsen, but I'm sure it's very nice.

We were amazed by the wonderful views from the hotel and especially our room. Also - when you stay be sure to request the special dinners! Their sushi kaiseki is fantastic!! And of course their staff are all very friendly and they keep the place spotless. |Also - it’s a short walk to Japan’s 3rd most favorite beach as well as boat rides to highlight the beautiful cliffs. Our favorite hotel so far!!

We had a wonderful time here and view from our room was absolutely stunning! The service was awesome and food was excellent. Well you can see from my pictures a little of the ambiance. This hotel gave us the traditional onsen feel and we loved the family atmosphere. If you ever want to explore the Iwate prefecture this great hotel to start and highly recommend that you visit the national park area below.

I'll never forget my stay at this hotel. Definitely felt like an upscale experience. All the shared spaces were very nicely furnished. I especially enjoyed the dining room with its panoramic windows overlooking the Pacific coast! You kinda have to pinch yourself to believe this view. One other great area is the reading room downstairs. Finally, be sure to enjoy the small but picturesque onsen. It's even open overnight! The rooms are very large even by western standards. I must say, I think we were given one of the only corner ones, which meant that we had a partial ocean view and a not-so-nice gravel rooftop nearby. At first, I had to hide my disappointment to my boyfriend but after a while I forgot about it because I enjoyed everything else about the room. As it is in a more remote location, don't expect to have lenghty english conversations with the staff as you would in Tokyo. The best is to stick to keywords (check-in, check-out, keys, bill) and be merry. Nevertheless, they are extremely helpful if you happen to need anything. I couldn't end this review without reminding you to be safe during your stay. You'll find a binder in the room with clear english information directed to foreigners, about the possibility of earthquake, tsunami and emergency evacuations. Please do read it, download the mobile app and spot the nearby "high-ground".

This hotel is located steps away from beautiful Jodoghama Beach. Great place for a secluded couples getaway or a family vacation. Rooms are spacious and every room has a spectacular ocean view.
