Location
Situated nearly 5 minutes' walk from Hako-yu Day Spa, the 2-star Hostel Knot Izu hotel features Wi-Fi throughout the property, and a private parking lot nearby. The guest house is a good starting point for exploring Izu, including the Bamboo Forest Path, which is merely 300 metres away.
The Shigetsuden is located just a 6-minute stroll from this Izu hotel, and such natural sites as Hirose Park is 4.8 km away. Guests can find the Kano River Memorial Park 2.6 km from the Knot Izu. The accommodation also lies near hot springs, and the gauge Shuzenji Niji-no-Sato Railway is about a 25-minute walk away. The hotel stands within reach of the Shuzenji Eastern Orthodox Church Kenei Holy Shrine, popular with pilgrims and tourists alike.
Each of the 6 rooms is furnished with sound-proof windows, featuring an air conditioner. Here you can enjoy a fridge and an oven. A bidet, a shower, and a shared toilet, along with a hair dryer and bath sheets, are also included in the bathrooms.
Hostel Knot hotel is 250 m from Bokunenjin serving Japanese dishes.
Review by hotel critic
As a seasoned travel writer and beer enthusiast, my recent one-night stay at this lovely Izu hostel offered a curious blend of comfort and value. Upon arrival, Ryuhei greeted me warmly, setting the tone for a welcoming experience. While the hostel features both male and female dormitories on the second floor, I found the layout quite discreet, ensuring privacy for everyone. The shared kitchen was impressively equipped-ideal for whipping up some late-night noodles after exploring local eateries suggested by Ryuhei. A notable highlight was the free coffee and tea available, a thoughtful touch for weary travelers. The room itself was comfortable; I slept soundly thanks to quality bedding, although a controlled air conditioning setup meant I had to rely on staff which could raise questions on heating management. Facilities like the lounge and foot bath just a short walk away offered a nice touch of relaxation in this quaint town. The pricing aligns seamlessly with the amenities provided, striking a fine balance between luxury and budget. It's a smart choice for those seeking an authentic Japanese experience without breaking the bank. A return visit is certainly on my cards.
