Experience of the stay
I wanted to see the ocean, so I took a quick 1.5-hour trip from Tokyo to Hayama!
⬜︎ Check-In
Check-in here is a bit later at 16:00. I reserved through Hafh, and after stating my name, I could check in immediately, with breakfast reservation also available at that time. Breakfast reservations can be made up to the day before, and I had to decide the menu at the same time as making the reservation.
I usually prefer Japanese food, so I chose the spam onigiri set! There were also French toast, minestrone, and gratin among four menu options.
In addition to the plate, they had a buffet-style salad, cereals, and drinks (water, milk, orange juice, coffee, and hot drinks).
If you have time, it seems nice to slowly enjoy coffee in the morning while working or reading.
⬜︎ 1F Indoor Area
The indoor area was very clean, and the shared space (workspace) was well-equipped. It was separated into a tatami area and an area with tables and chairs.
You can eat anywhere in this area, whether it’s breakfast, dinner, or in the cafe!
⬜︎ 5F Room (Mountain Side)
I reserved a private room (mountain side) and spent my time inside! I chose mountain side as it was slightly cheaper, and the chirping of birds was soothing.
The ocean view can be seen from the bath, so I think anyone who doesn’t have particular preferences can relax just fine from the mountain side.
⬜︎ Amenities
In the 1F lobby, there are cotton swabs, combs, toothbrushes, shaving razors, and shaving cream.
They also provided pajamas and slippers in the room, so for those who don’t mind, you don’t need to bring pajamas. *I don't know about the bunk room!
There was also a refrigerator and electric kettle, so I enjoyed a leisurely stay with dinner brought back to the room.
In the bathing area, besides shampoo, rinse, and body soap, there’s also cleansing and face wash (this was the information I wanted to know).
If you need anything, it would be skincare items! There were oils and creams in the changing area, but I wasn’t sure if they were for the face... I took care of myself with what I brought!
I hope this helps you if you're considering a stay!
Experiences during the trip
I visited Morito Shrine, where I got purifying salt and a goshuin (shrine stamp)! The summer orange design, available only at this time of year, is really cute. It’s a power spot, so I highly recommend it!
Just a short walk away at Morito Beach, I relaxed while gazing at the sea. Even on weekends, this time of year has fewer people, and as I was feeling tired of the crowds, it truly healed my heart.
I had lunch at a hamburger shop about a 5-minute walk away. I went around 1 PM on a Sunday, and I was able to enter without waiting. Since it’s cool this time of year, it might be an undiscovered spot for sightseeing. It seems like summer will be crowded though.
Hayama is great for those who want to enjoy the sea and take it slow. Since Kamakura is also nearby, make sure to visit. From Morito Shrine, I went to Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine the next day. Both shrines are related to Minamoto no Yoritomo! I wasn’t able to visit any fashionable cafes this time, so I’d like to make a comeback to that.Get Extra Bonus Coins!
