The biggest draw of the Nagoya Crown Hotel is its authentic natural hot spring (onsen), with water sourced directly from the hotel grounds. It's the perfect way to unwind after a long day of work, soaking in a spacious bath fed by a free-flowing natural spring—all while being in the center of Nagoya. Another highlight is the breakfast buffet, which features a great selection of local "Nagoya-meshi" specialties like Miso Katsu and Kishimen noodles, allowing you to savor the local cuisine right from the morning. Plus, with Fushimi Station just a 5-minute walk away, it’s an incredibly convenient base for any business trip.

This is our top recommendation for anyone looking to fully enjoy both the incredible hot springs of Gero and a world of diverse gourmet options.

After you've relaxed, an array of dining choices awaits. Depending on your mood, you can opt for an authentic kaiseki dinner featuring premium Hida beef, or visit the hotel's elegant French and Chinese restaurants.

If outstanding seafood is your objective, "Taberu Oyado Hamanoyu" is a choice you won't regret. True to its name, which translates to "The Gourmet Inn," the dining experience was simply superb. The local Inatori specialty, Kinmedai (Splendid Alfonsino) simmered in soy sauce, was particularly exquisite, and I was impressed by the high quality of every single dish, from the fresh sashimi onwards. We were served both breakfast and dinner in a private dining room, which ensured our privacy and allowed us to enjoy our meals in complete comfort.

Hoping to enjoy the Atami Seaside Fireworks Festival from our room, my family and I stayed at the Atami Korakuen Hotel! The hotel's location overlooking Atami Bay is truly unbeatable. When booking, we requested an ocean-view room, and the spectacular fireworks from our balcony were truly captivating. The festive atmosphere throughout the hotel, especially on the day of the fireworks, heightened the sense of excitement. The dining options offered were a buffet centered on seafood, or a leisurely kaiseki kaiseki（a traditional Japanese multiple course meal ）, including fresh sashimi and roast beef, and everything was delicious. Eating while looking out at the ocean from the window further enhanced the resort atmosphere.
