南樂地理位置觀賞河津櫻簡直一流，房間寬敞、乾淨，早、晚餐很豐富美味，接待員貼心但鬼馬又跳皮的款侍直得一讚。

We have stayed at this ryokan and recommended it to others numerous times over the past couple decades. Unfortunately, our visit in September 2023 was to be our last. The okamisan (owner) who had put her heart and soul into the inn had passed away and the new owners are running a scam, probably intending to get a tax write off. Everything that made the inn welcoming, relaxing and worth the steep price tag was gone. No one was there to greet us and park our car, and we were told rather bluntly to take it to the parking lot ourselves. The lot was empty. The “manager” registered us and pointed to the elevator, implying that we should see ourselves and our bags to the room—odd, when there had always been a gracious staff member escorting us. The welcoming touches of hot dumpling soup and homemade Shiso-leaf juice were nowhere to be found. The hallways were dusty. The name of the inn implies “hospitality with flowers,” but the huge arrangement in the entry was wilted, dry and dusty. It was sad. The fresh ikebana arrangement that used to be in the tokonoma in the room was now a cheap, plastic dollar store bouquet. The room was musty with mold growing on the walls in the bedroom and bathroom. I spent the night sneezing and coughing. There was a broken window fixed with duct tape. (Filthy, too) The meal was mostly just pre-made and assembled on site, and the seafood did not live up to Izu standards. There was only one other guest in the rather austere dining room. Meals used to be brought to the guest room with great fanfare and eaten around an irori hearth. The baths were still mostly OK, but given the neglected and filthy state of the rest of the facility, we were suspicious of the cleanliness of the water.

Actually, having ten/ 10 private baths and all natural hot springs. All complimentary and 24 hours open. No need reservations and using availability basis. Great!!!!!!! For sleeping was very comfortable and wide size rooms. Japanese food was very delicious and all local food especially sounds good law fish. So, this hotel is very local, however, professional service and speaking English. Excellent!!!!!!!! ここの高級旅館は温泉が素晴らしいです。中でも貸切風呂が10箇所もあり24時間予約不要空いていれば入れます。お料理も地元の食材を楽しめ特にお刺身が美味しいです。サービスは田舎の宿なのに一流です。

年末に露天風呂付の部屋に泊まりました。 露天風呂といっても大きな甕のような感じのふかさのあるもので、手足を伸ばしてゆったり、という感じではありません。行く前から写真で分かっていたことなのでそれは特に気にはなりませんでしたが。 ただ、案内は1階のエレベーターの前まで、お茶とかのサービスはなし（もちろん部屋に用意はありますので自分で入れることはできます）、ビールを頼もうと思ってもルームサービスもなしでした。 年末なので10万円ほどでしたが、それを考えると今一つかな、と思います。食事も物足りない感じでした。 ただ、従業員の方の感じはよかったですし、たくさんある貸切風呂は面白かったです。
