Marutomi Review

Just a minute's walk from the Natural Sand Bath at Yunohama Beach, this inexpensive inn is a family-run affair. Following the ryokan tradition of naming rooms instead of assigning numbers, rooms are named after fish (the owner was a fisherman); you can even stay in the Tuna Room! All the rooms are Japanese style, clean and with more character than many in this price range. Meals, which include fresh seafood, are served communally at low tables on tatami. Several blocks north is an annex, Marutomi2, with hot-spring baths, a communal kitchen, and three additional rooms. Guests can use facilities at both inns. If you call from the station, the owner may be able to pick you up.

Facilities:
Small hot-spring bath

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
