Overview
Step into a town where literature and art live on, and relax in a hotel that blends tradition with a touch of refined modernity. At Premium Ito Hotel New Okabe, you can enjoy one of Ito’s renowned hot springs, explore the cultural streets that inspired many writers, and indulge in delicious seasonal cuisine. Settle into a slower pace in a coastal town that invites you to take your time.
Accommodation
The hotel consists of two separate wings, each with its own bathhouses. Rooms are designed for simplicity and comfort, with traditional tatami floors, futon bedding, and large windows that let in soft coastal light. Some rooms come with garden views or private outdoor space. Choose your favorite yukata at check-in and spend your stay in relaxed Japanese style.
Every room includes a washlet toilet, and many include unit baths. Rooms are non-smoking and come equipped with TVs, refrigerators, tea sets, and other basics. Bedding is prepared while you dine or enjoy the onsen.
Dining
Dinner is served buffet-style and showcases the flavors of Ito and the Izu Peninsula. Enjoy fresh kinmedai—golden eye snapper—prepared as sashimi, grilled, or served in rice bowls. The buffet also includes California rolls, roast vegetable salads, kushikatsu skewers, and more. The live kitchen serves flame-seared kinmedai right in front of you.
Don’t miss local specialties like Inatori meat fried rice or kinmedai kamameshi. Kids can enjoy takoyaki, fries, and seasonal desserts like panna cotta with summer jelly. You’ll also find all-you-can-eat Häagen-Dazs ice cream at the dessert bar.
Breakfast is another highlight. Create your own rice bowl with toppings from the “nokke-don” station, or enjoy warm French toast and miso soup. The morning buffet balances Japanese and Western options so you can start your day your way.
Onsen and Wellness
The hotel offers two bathhouses, Surugatei and Sagamitei, each with separate baths for men and women. These spaces are not on a rotation schedule, so you can enjoy both locations during your stay. Both wings have indoor baths and open-air rotenburo. Surugatei features a garden bath built with Izu stone, glowing with gentle green hues. Sagamitei offers spacious, open bathing areas and saunas.
The hot spring water is sodium-chloride-based and known for its soft texture. It’s drawn from two private sources on-site and mixed into a blend unique to the hotel. The water helps relieve fatigue, improves circulation, and leaves your skin feeling smooth.
Public baths are open from 3:00 p.m. to midnight and again from 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. Saunas follow the same hours, except for cleaning times. After your bath, unwind in the Premium Lounge, where you can enjoy complimentary drinks in a space lit by a fireplace and surrounded by books.
Guests with Tattoos
The public bath does not allow visible tattoos. However, if you use a cover seal (available for a fee) that completely hides your tattoo, you can still use the facility.
Facilities
The Premium Lounge is open throughout your stay, offering free soft drinks and afternoon alcohol in a quiet space with a fireplace and library. The hotel also includes table tennis, karaoke (free until 7:00 p.m.), manga reading rooms, and rental games available at the front desk.
Relax further with a high-performance massage chair or a professional treatment in the relaxation area (extra charges apply). The hotel also has a souvenir shop, vending machines, an EV charging station, and free Wi-Fi throughout most areas.
Activities
Explore the artistic side of Ito by visiting nearby museums and galleries, or spend the day at a local beach. For indoor fun, enjoy board games, manga, or karaoke. Whether you’re traveling as a couple or with family, the hotel provides space for both quiet relaxation and shared enjoyment.
