Kind of depressing. I run a school in rural India (tribal belt) and can't even provide them a basic classroom. I mentioned it because that's the first thing that came to mind when I saw such a big building being abandoned. I wish I could use that building for our school and change a thousand lives.

Incase someone is asking why they abandoned this place :) In 1996 the Hachijo Royal Hotel reopened as the Pricia Resort, which closed in August 2003 to re-open in 2004 as the Hachijo Oriental Resort. When the tourism boom came to an end, it struggled to attract guests and finally closed in 2006. The island is probably most famous as a diving spot, a tiny island that no one visits anymore.

This was beautiful I like that you kids do this. To me when your just exploring & not vandalizing your not hurting anything. I used to do the same thing with buildings when I was younger. I dont know why some people complain when they come across these. Life is too short & your cherishing something that used to be valued that no longer is. Keep living life & not taking it for granted its fine by me.

Do you ever feel like you are not alone in any of the places you go to? Have you ever felt like you were affected by any of these places after you left?

Why are you sad? This place wasn't built for you. It was built for the filthy rich. You're sad because they no longer have a hedonist hotel for their debauchery? Hell. I'm glad. It was a big waste of money and the owners lost on it.

Another reason why that you are my number one of urban explorer's! You are so honest, never taking any of the so valuable artifacts, which were everywhere. Honesty is a quality seen by very few these days! I honor you so much for that and for bringing to us these places that we will never see but through your kindness and I so thank you! Now I say "Hat's off to Japan as they have to be great people to not destroy as those in the States seem to love to destroy and I will never approve of what these young people here who are spoiled through there souls .. and get there kicks to take all that is beautiful and should be treated with the upmost respect, yet this is how they get their kicks! So, to all of you that do I so wish you would see that the people of Japan aren't like that and see it in yourselves to become more like them than the spoiled brats of over indulgement that you have been given and instead Its my prayer that you see this video and take from it what could be here if only you'd let it be as those have and as this our best explorer also does, to see but to leave just as you find it. What a much greater place this world would be if more were like he is in every video he does! God bless you in all your explorations, stay safe and live every day to the very most, as a day will come in our lives that we won't be able to do all we can in our youth but how great it will be to know that you did all you did in your youth and even watch the films, always knowing that you made the Nobel choices and Christ rewards for them will be much greater than any we know on earth! I wish you a great New Year, and hope "2019" will be your best year yet!

This was so beautiful , what a shame that it was abandoned. Could you imagine walking through there and staying in your room , it would be so luxurious. I love how you move around and draw our attention to thing's that we might overlook . Stay 💪... be 😎 and ✌ :-)

Wow, what an amazing place! I find abandoned homes and buildings in my area and sometimes explore them carefully, but I would never have had access to a place like this! Thanks for bringing everyone along with you!

Steve, thank you and your crew for filming this wonderful place. I was thinking that there appears to be a large portion of it that could be functional while the other parts are being repaired or fixed so they don’t leak, etc. So much of very well preserved and functional kitchen equipment. Oh how I wish some very wealthy person or corporation would rehab it. Do you have to get permission to do the exploring you do and have you ever been in danger from other unsavory individuals who threaten you being in a specific abandoned habitat? I really enjoy your adventures. Could you maybe spend a little more time and slower filming the rooms that have artifacts without jeopardizing your team? Thank you so very much.

Homeless people should’ve not be handed or given a free pass they have put themselves in that position and they should have to work for what they received just as everyone else, it is pure laziness that keeps them in that position, they could turn there life around all it takes is a resume to get your life back on your feet,, I’m not talking down on homeless people and it’s sad that they have put themselves in that position but there is always a way to come back from whatever situation or position your in no matter what you just need to motivate and apply yourself and if you do not it is your own fault and bstraight laziness

Wow...I love this place. Just imagine all the vacation stories & memories that was made there.

9:22 That is Greek architecture, but very low quality Greek architecture. You can buy per-made columns like that at Home Depot for a couple of hundred dollars each. The architecture of this place is a weird mix of Asian and European. I don't think the architecture is any thing remarkable. But it is an interesting place. It's too bad it's wasting away. People in Tokyo are living in ridiculously small homes, while this massive place is just rotting away. The world is a strange place.

What a amazing place complete wonderful decay on one side and in perfect condition after all these years on the other. Love the contrast. Would love to see more from there.

I wish i could see a picture of this place when it was in all its glory... It must have felt like being in paradise.Such a beauty.

I enjoyed the video, that hotel was huge & fancy. I agree it was a lot of rooms that was preserved very well.

This place would make a perfect Zombie set location for the Walking Dead.

i love those images with plants just taking over those things

This is crazy! They don't even try to hold a salvage sale?!? The kitchens are big money with all the stainless steel and kitchen supplies. Believe it or not the plain white ceramic sushi dishes, even a very small sashimi platter with no decorations painted on them, costs eight to twelve dollars. They could pull the marble to sell, and HVAC gear, windows, and so much more! In fact, the wiring and plumbing is big money when recovered.

This was one of your better explores, you have been getting much better. I really liked seeing all the rooms and I can’t believe all those beautiful crystal chandeliers are still just hanging there. I wonder if the island had nuclear radiation from Fukushima or the tsunami.

Great vid, also this blog has hotel history~ Hachijo Royal Hotel 2014/12/30 by Florian / Abandoned Kansai The most beautiful abandoned looking hotel I have never entered - this title goes to the Hachijo Royal Hotel, once the biggest hotel in all of Japan. I went there twice, at sunset and the next morning just after sunrise, both times I ran into several people, both times I had a feeling that this hotel wasn’t really abandoned… and I turned out to be right. Half a year after my visit several Japanese explorers changed their reports about the hotel, some of them apologizing - apparently they had been contacted by the current management… In the past two years more and more allegedly abandoned hotels on *Hachijojima* popped-up on Japanese urbex blogs, and when I decided in early 2014 to have a look myself, I went there with one very specific picture in my mind: the front of the Hachijo Royal Hotel, the first photo of the gallery at the end of the article. Sadly none of those blogs did much research on the hotel’s history, so I had to dig a little bit deeper, like so many times before… The Hachijo Royal Hotel was opened in 1963 - eight years after the former military airport on Hachijojima was turned over to civilian control and four years after the local tourist office was established. At the time the biggest hotel in all of Japan (according to one of the people I spoke with) the owning company celebrated their then-president Eiji Yasuda with a statue of himself in the vast park of the resort. Tourism on the Izu Islands was booming back then, especially on Hachijojima, since the government nicknamed it the “Hawaii of Japan” in an attempt to give the island a positive image and the population of Tokyo a warm place to visit. That couldn’t have sit very well with Okinawa back then as all they got were quite a few American military bases; something they are not really happy with till that very day. Nowadays Japanese people prefer to go to Okinawa or the real Hawaii. Most likely due to Hachijojima’s lack of sand beaches and spare time offers other hiking, surfing and diving - resulting in a steep decline of tourism on Hachijojima. In 1996 the Hachijo Royal Hotel reopened as the Pricia Resort Hachijo… as in Pricia Resort Yoron on one of the Okinawan islands. The Pricia Resort Hachijo closed in August 2003 and re-opened on June 1st 2004 as the Hachijo Oriental Resort, which is still written on the main entrance, the road sign and a car with license plates parked on the premises. In 2005 “Trick the Movie 2” was shot at the hotel, the sequel to a movie, based on a three season long Japanese comedy drama TV show. It seems like the hotel was closed again around that time, which is just proves how quickly places decay when they are refused any maintenance, especially on an island surrounded by saltwater. I first arrived at the Hachijo Royal Hotel in the afternoon of a gorgeous spring day. This was one of the last big ticket items I really wanted to explore in Japan, so I was quite nervous when I approached. Thanks to Google Street View I knew that I would be able to get close to the hotel without jumping any fences, but I also knew that there would be a barber shop near the back, just across the street. To fill some of the blanks, I first approached the area that the Street View car couldn’t access - and of course the first thing I saw were two cars with license plates parked directly in front of the main entrance, a Suzuki Carry kei truck a little further in the back. Darn! Would my exploration end 30 seconds into it? Luckily it didn’t. I kept myself together and walked up to the cars, prepared for some small talk with an owner, security guard or some construction workers. Turns out the whole thing was a false alarm - all cars had flat tires, some were rusty beyond repair… and the kei truck was labelled Blues Mobile; very funny! I had a look around and it seems like the Hachijo Royal Hotel consisted of two parts. The main building with its amazing back towards the waterfront - and a White House style annex building opposite the main entrance. Following a couple of dozen photos, I started the obligatory video tour, when suddenly a huge roar was thundering down the coastal road, apparently a couple of bikers, also enjoying this warm spring day. Okay, second attempt, starting next to the White House annex. A minute or two into it, I just arrived at the main entrance, an old guy walking his cat size lap dog showed up in the background, so I stopped filming and approached him with a smile, again ready for some small talk. Sadly the guy seemed to be in a very bad mood (no surprise, I would be embarrassed, too, being seen in public with a dog like that…) and literally tried to shoo me away; which actually pissed me off quite a bit, because Senior McLapdog obviously had about as many rights to be there as I had; at least I tried to be a friendly person. Long story short, I pretended to go away, but ran into him again as I need to go back to take the video I wanted to take. After a while he finally left, but I wouldn’t have been the first vengeful person to call the police, so for the next hour or so I made sure to stay on public ground; after I took the video, of course. The back of the hotel with its amazing gigantic and partly overgrown pool area as well as a huge park was mind-blowingly beautiful and all I hoped it would be - strangely enough it faced the main road, so the back of the hotel was the front… or vice versa. Anyway, I took some shots and after I was pretty confident that the police wouldn’t show up any time soon… I was approached by another elderly on his bike, telling me about the history of the hotel. 10 minutes later, the guy was finally out of sight, I walked up to the hotel. Up there were some outdoor showers, another (small) pool, a few European style statues, at one point in time probably water fountains, and a back entrance, blocked from the inside with a large rusty sickle! When you think you’ve seen it all… It was getting dark pretty quickly and I didn’t bring my tripod, so went for a stroll along the coast and for dinner at a sushi restaurant, serving flying fish, amongst other local delicacies. Right after I woke up the next morning I went back to the Hachijo Royal Hotel. Different light from a different direction… but pretty much the same amount of people passing by. Heck, nobody was getting in or out, but the area was as busy as a beehive! After a friendly morning talk with a female dog walker I took some photos as the seriously damaged tennis courts before heading back to the “backfront”, to finally grab the photo I really wanted to take. A conversation with another biker later I finally descended to the partly overgrown pool area. One of the two changing areas looked like somebody was squatting there for a while (and what better place for that than an island so warm that it offers a free camping site all year long?), but other than that it looked as abandoned as the rest of the hotel - so signs of maintenance, no signs of any ownership, except for years old, trampled down ropes here and there. In its heydays the gigantic pool must have been amazing, at the time of my visit it was barely accessible - especially the concrete pathway with steps towards the backfront with the smaller pool and all the statues was completely overgrown and barely visible. Even without entering the Hachijo Royal Hotel, it was a great experience exploring this wonderful resort and its absolutely stunning seaside front. It’s quite a big photo gallery this time, so make sure to not miss the hidden gems, like the picture on which the sun is setting behind Mount Hachijo-Fuji while a plane is just leaving for Tokyo’s Haneda airport. The four videos I publish show most of the resort’s exterior and I hope they will give you a better impression of how gorgeous the place really was. If there really still is an owner, I really hope he will act quickly and spend some money to save this modern classic - it’s one of those places that would really deserve to be saved!

it's ok to know the location. there's plenty of abandoned places in japan, from abandoned houses to dead pachinkos to burned down wedding buildings. specially on rural areas. you got places to vandalise and/or steal around the corner. i never did something like that but it's very easy to do if you know where to look...

BASELINE TRUTH & HEALING. THIS was the place where “Trick The Movie 2” was shot?! No way! I’m a fan of that movie. The whole TV series, the specials, and the first two movies. I had good memories watching those with the lights turned off with my sister 11 years ago. Such good times...

"I would love these in my kitchen" *Turns off camera*

OMG, what a beauty! It's unbelievable that such mavel might possibly be left even by government. It might and should be restored, maybe for a business less expensive than a hotel. Thanks much for your video!

The Hachijo Royal Resort on the remote volcanic Japanese island of Hachijojima opened in 1963 At the time of its opening, it was one of the largest hotels in Japan and attracted clientele from all over However, the tourism boom came to an end and the hotel struggled to attract guests. It closed in 2006

Good find. It's not fire its damp has collapsed the ceilings. Sadly once damp sets in it destroys a building quickly. Would be very costly to recover. The site will probably be sold and demolished.

Definitely could make this into luxury apartments/Lofts fully loaded common areas,daycare center 🤔

Uhhhm, even in Japan or anywhere in the world, it would be stolen if it was on an island that had PEOPLE on it......this hotel is on an island that doesn't have residents. probably deserved to have your lights stolen....

From what I've read, the island lacks sandy beaches. That would limit its appeal.

This is SUPER COOL! I visited this island in 1992 while I was in the Air Force. It's so sad to see it in the state it is now. I suspect the Fire was the beginning of it's demise. It probably just wasn't worth the price of restoring. Too bad, it was a gorgeous Hotel at the time. 👍🤦‍♀️
