"What a surprise, a special car pick-up at the bus station🚏, one night and two meals are great! The girl from Zhejiang is beautiful, enthusiastic, and thoughtful. She introduced us to delicious cakes and Dorayaki in the surrounding area. The entrance of the hotel is the starting point for hiking. If you have time, you can go for a walk. There will definitely be unexpected gains! The hot springs are also great. Kurokawa Hot Spring Town is worth visiting again! Unforgettable🥰"
"Sure enough, the water temperature of the hot springs meets the requirements. In order to adapt to foreigners who don’t like heat, many hot springs have lowered the water temperature, so it doesn’t feel like soaking. The interior style is also the feeling of the Taisho era😄"
"It should be an older hotel in Kurokawa, the service and food are very good, just a hot spring, paper towels found inside. not feeling well"

"The service staff are very kind and attentive. When checking out, the gentleman at the counter for other consumption amounts said that you cannot pay by card and you have to pay in cash, but there is a sign at the counter that you can pay by card and it does not say that you must pay in cash. I feel a little strange."
"The service here is very good
Quiet environment, very Japanese-style hotel
Staff are very polite but may have less experience in hosting foreign guests
More need to be translated by machine
Eat because we are seven people.
But you need half hot pot and half barbecue
It should be better to provide it together.
A sashimi experience is available here
Very special.
Overall, the price is very high, the staff is friendly (but more inclusive)"
"Transportation) If you write a pick-up request on the note, you will be picked up at the information center or bus stop!
Accommodation) live in the main building, clean and traditional feeling is very attractive! There are few people on the day we live, so we use it like a chartered bath, and there are men's baths, women's baths, two family baths, and mixed baths. I felt like I enjoyed the villa with a hot spring hidden in the forest, so I was very satisfied with my friend ><
Kaiseki) There are also local specialties such as seasonal vegetable fried and horseradish sashimi, and they serve you to the extent that you are full by women. The horseradish and plum wine were memorable and delicious.
+ I checked out without knowing that I left my jacket on the hanger, but thank you for knowing how to find and go to our store ㅠㅜ"
"The location is good, quiet and elegant, but it's a bit big that you can't have a hot spring ㅠㅠ Instead, there are many good hot springs around, so you can use it as a hot spring pass. I think you can shower in the basement even if you don't have a hot spring. (There is only a washbasin and a large scale in the room, so you can't take a shower) The meal is also a little smaller than the picture in the ryokan introduction, but it tastes good!"

GGuest UserLast week, I stayed at Kurowakaso for one night~~!
First of all, I really, really recommend it👍🏻 Go there a hundred, ten thousand, and a thousand and five hundred times!!
The staff are very kind, and the hot spring facilities and room condition are the best!
I was able to try on traditional Japanese clothes, and the food was especially the best!
The food was really good, and they gave me so much food that I almost burst😂
I was lucky that my group and I were the only ones in the family bath and large bath, so I took pictures, but the hot spring for guests only is also amazing!
It was a good memory~ A lot of Korean tourists are going to Kumamoto these days, so if you're thinking about visiting a hot spring, I recommend this place👻
(By the way, there's a staff member who speaks Korean really well♡)
GGuest UserAmazing stay! All staffs are super friendly, always giving me some help. Incredible hot springs & meals. Also you can use Miyama Sansou’s hot spring because it is sister ryokan of Yamamizuki. Very traditional and well equipped ryokan. Highly recommend.
CCHONG HSIENFantastic ryokan experience. This ryokan has many separate onsens. Staff are proficient in English. We stayed at Annex building with more privacy and private onsen. But public onsens have many choices and would keep you busy to try them selectively.
The beds are comfortable too.
DDenis GrI wanted to hide from the crowds of tourists and feel as close to nature as possible.
The place is simply magnificent, the location of the ryokan is generally ideal. There is a magnificent view from the window, the sound of the water is very relaxing!
A huge plus was the presence of 3 shared onsen (family bath) which did not need to be reserved! Just come and take the ones that are free (They are open 24/7)!
In general, the topic of hot springs in this ryokan is a hotel conversation, the temperature is pleasant. 2 open-air onsen (very beautiful with different themes), 2 closed onsen (open 24/7) and 3 shared (private onsen)
Kaiseki (dinner/breakfast) was magnificent, we spent 2 hours for dinner and 1 hour for breakfast. There was a lot of food, varied and interesting. Everything was incredibly delicious! In general, we were fed there with:
The staff is very polite, they will help, explain, speak English.
We asked to leave our things before leaving because we still had a lot of time before the bus and the staff kindly agreed! Thank them again!
In general, it was a wonderful trip and a very beautiful place! In the evening, if you are in season, they light the lights on the river and it becomes completely magical!
GGuest UserThe Manager and staff were amazing and so helpful - Probably the best service we had all trip from 7 different stays. We had the dining experience and not only was the food wonderful, they even change our food when we said we were scared of trying the Horse & Chicken Sashimi. The view from the in-room onsen was brilliant. If you want to be critical then its a 10min walk to the village centre but thats why we choose this Hotel plus we just drove to the village centre - so simple. To the Manager - Please thank your staff for making our stay here an amazing one.
TTo Eat and To TravelThere are many public and private bath to choose from in this ryokan. Plus you can get the kurokawa onsen pass (tegata) which gives you access to 3 external onsens in the town (most ryokans in town are participating) within one year of purchase of the tegata. We didn’t book dinner at the hotel, and used the diner time to try Nonohana お宿 野の花 and Ryokan Konoyu 黒川温泉 旅館 こうの湯, then next morning before breakfast I went to most of the onsens in the hotel, then after breakfast we checked out and tried Miyama Sanso 山みず木別邸 深山山荘, all four places (including this hotel) have amazing onsens and views. We drove so it was easier for us to try onsens far from the hotel, but driving in town wasn’t the easiest given narrow roads. The parking lot is a few minutes walk from the hotel, we kept the key with us for easy move around.
AA TseTop notch friendly front desk staffs with smiling face all the time. Service is excellent, they even help me to park my car and take my luggage to the room. My room has a private onsen and it was surprisingly big. The public onsen in the hotel is also very nice particularly the outdoor pool where you can hear natural water flowing sound from the stream below. The dinner was great even though I am not a big fan of horse meat. Cleanliness and tidiness is impressive. Breakfast was in Japanese style, but you can still have a cup of drip filtered coffee. Overall I love this hotel very much and will prefer to stay there if I happen to go there again.
AAishuijuedeyuyaThe dormitory is very clean and cost-effective. It is next to Hiranotai. The location is a bit difficult to find. You can see this white sign and go up. The boss is also very good, and he took me to the convenience store to buy food.
RReacherประทับใจมาก สถานที่และบรรยากาศบอกได้เลยว่าดีมาก พนักงานต้อนรับ ยิ้มแย้มและช่วยเหลือทุกๆ ด้าน รอบหน้าถ้ามา จะเลือกกลับมาพักที่นี่แน่นอน
Very impressed, the place and the atmosphere can be said to be very good. receptionist Smile and help in every aspect. If coming, will definitely choose to come back to stay here.
