SKY-HILL HOTEL Izu Kogen to Open New Private Sauna Suites on July 18, 2026

SKY-HILL HOTEL Izu Kogen — The Ultimate Views and Relaxation, the official hotel of the Izu Cactus Animal Park Group in Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture — is undergoing a guest room renovation and will open two new suite rooms featuring outdoor baths and saunas on July 18, 2026 (Saturday). Reservations opened on June 11, 2026 (Thursday).

Semi-outdoor bath guest room

Following the well-received addition of semi-outdoor bath rooms and Mt. Omuro-view semi-outdoor bath rooms last year, the hotel has expanded its offerings once again. With these additions, the property will operate a total of 25 guest rooms, delivering a broader range of high-quality accommodation options to visitors.

New suite room concept

The two new rooms are the hotel's top-tier suites, situated close to Mt. Omuro — a nationally designated natural monument. Designed around a concept of "Refinement and Relaxation," the sophisticated interiors include both an in-room sauna and a semi-outdoor bath. Guests can enjoy outdoor air while taking in the sweeping profile of Mt. Omuro — a setting found nowhere else. The rooms are especially well-placed during early spring's Mt. Omuro Mountain Burning ceremony, when visitors can watch the striking spectacle right from their suite.

Japanese-Western style room

The hotel sits directly adjacent to Izu Cactus Animal Park, and a dedicated private gate allows hotel guests to enter the park without extra hassle, making it a convenient choice for families too.
