Hotellit aamiaisella kohteessa Yufu

We had a great 2 nights stay at this Ryokan. Location was near Yufuin Floral Village, and around 20 mins walk from Yufuin JR station. It was a nice walk to Yufuin JR station as there were many shops and eateries that you can visit along the way. Alternatively, there is also bus 36 from Yufuin but terminal that would stop near to the ryokan. The staff were really outstanding, friendly and helpful. When we arrived, a couple of them rushed to help us with our luggage and to also shelter us from the rain. During the entire stay, they made us feel very welcomed. The Western/Japanese room that we booked was very spacious and had all the amenities we required. Note that this is a 2 storey living area - level 1 had a bathroom with private indoor and outdoor onsen as well as the living room, while level 2 had a toilet (w/o bath) and 1 western bedroom as well as 1 Japanese bedroom. There are 4 public onsen in the ryokan. 2 for female and 2 for male. They would rotate it during the day and night to allow everyone to try out the different onsen. We also had our breakfast and dinner at the ryokan as part of the package. The dishes were different on both days. The spread was huge and food tasted great. Note that there are very few places open at Yufuin during dinner time.

너무 너무 좋은 숙소였습니다. 유후인 관광을 조금 한뒤 미리 신청한 송영서비스로 유후인역 앞에 와주셨어요. 라운지에서 웰컴티를 마시고 숙소로 안내해주십니다. 한국분이 계셔서 더 편했구요~ 깨끗하고 넓은 숙소, 부족할게 없었어요. 냉장고 음료, 커피 모두 무료구요~ 커피도 너무 맛있었어요. 프라이빗 단독 펜션이라 생각하시면 될것같아요. 화장실과 세면대가 따로있는데 둘다 넓고 쾌적해서 좋구요. 드라이기, 고데기 다 비치되어있어서 너무 편리했습니다. 보통 호텔에 있는 드라이기 바람세기 약하고 머리 말리는데 오래걸리는데 여긴 최고~! 지배인님, 직원들 모두 친절하고 엄마랑 가서 매우 만족하고 돌아왔답니다. 사진에 모두 담기지 않겠지만 일본에서 지낸 숙소 중 최고였어요. 소중한 사람과 또 가면 좋을것같아요~!

Location not far from station. Small hotel but all is clean, comfort, good view from the room too. Breakfast is good choice because restaurant around that is late open.

Great onsen experience. The package with half broad, meal was great. Also the room has indoor private onsen. Should try experience (but a bit pricy 😅)

Is a good experience, I liked the Japanese style of it, the location is good, away from the Main Street for around 5mins walking distance. There is a local supermarket near by. staffs can’t speak other languages but Japanese we used Google translate which worked well. I stayed 2 nights, breakfast and dinner were very good too.

Staff is friendly and helpful Good location Room is big with private onsen Will definitely recommend to friends and relatives who visit Yufuin

Hotel surroundings and cleanliness was top notch. Dinner and breakfast set were amazingly tasteful and filling. Food served was fresh and served based on our eating pace. All the staff are all well versed with English and friendly with our request. The onsen itself was great but the entrance to the men and ladies onsen was just next to each other. Ladies privacy could be easily violated as the main door was the see-through type. We were not feeling quite comfortable with the entrance layout.

The service they provide is up and beyond. I love how this whole place is set up in such a way for people to mingle. I wish I could have stayed longer and chat with the people. Unfortunately I think it was off peak season so there weren't many people. The owner is generous and friendly, people that stays there are good natured people. The owners sang country road to everyone that leaves in the morning, very heart warming and eye teary especially when I met a wonderful old couple from kagoshima during the wonderfully made breakfast. The common area, which is the dining area, has a scenic view of outside, and the main city that lights up a little at night and beautifully decorated interior. It feels like home. I also enjoyed the indoor onsen too. My favourite bit was the classical music playing in the background, and how accessible it is, like a backyard. If you stay here, return the deed by being good guests.

The hotel is very impressive, and the overall experience was excellent. The staff speak English and provide excellent service. They also offer complimentary wine and drinks during happy hours, allowing us to relax and enjoy them after the onsen.

Pros: Dinner was ramen with gyoza at the restaurant which tasted good. Staff were friendly. Onsen onsite was good. Nice view and countryside vibes. Cons Location was quite a distance from the station, recommended to travel light if staying there. Heating was on in autumn with no option to change to aircon despite the weather outside being a mere 14 degrees.
