Unzen Boutique Hotels

first impression will be ”bad” but after good relax in the onsen all is forgotten. Parking available at 500 yen over night Check in fast - NO English. They have all details that you might need written on big cards in English. Room is very big. Nice varenda. However smell of smoke of cigarette. Amenities - ok. Wifi - ok The onsen is in next building so you need to pass via the reception area. Also this is old place but have big windows and if you in day time you can enjoy the view. We did not took breakfast so no comment. As it is very cheap and the target is onsen I believe it give best value

Given how far away the island of Kyushu is from Tokyo and Osaka/Kyoto, my perception in the past was that of a backwater that lacked sophistication. After numerous trips to all of the Prefectures the past few years, I've come to the realization that it's rich in history, culture, nature and - yes - a wonderful gastronomic identify. Unzen Kyushu Hotel is yet another example of a Kyushu property offering a polished hard product, refined service levels and an incredible dining experience. The property was rebuilt from scratch several years ago, with visions of a modern boutique hotel but with contemporary furnishings with local art. They've done a wonderful job here - the buildings blend into the Unzen environment without dominating the landscape (it's right next to ”Unzen Jigoku,” aka ”Unzen Hell” hot springs.) From most of the rooms as well as the lounge area, you're treated to a front-row seat to the views of Unzen Hell, complete with the strong sulphur smell (which we like, to be honest.) The grounds are immaculately maintained, and it really is a tranquil environment that is at harmony with the area at large. We chose to spend our 3 nights in one of the ”Hanare” (detached and separate building) rooms since they provided more privacy and space, although it's at the expense of a view of Unzen Jigoku that other rooms offer. The Hanare room offers bedrooms that are segregated from the living room (a key for us), as well as both an indoor as well as outdoor (open-air) Onsen hot springs bath, which was wonderful. The other benefit of Hanare-staying guests - you get to dine in a separate area, and in a private room, which is important to us, especially during COVID times. As a bonus, for the entire time we were there, the wonderful manager of Unzen Kyushu Hotel (Mr. Taura) personally served us - what a treat! He's an encyclopedia of food knowledge (as well as the local ingredients), and was very enthusiastic in his work. One other major bonus of this hotel, which really delighted us.... the pace of the meals was the best we've ever experienced. Nowhere else have we enjoyed a 9+ course meal in 90 minutes. And it didn't feel rushed at all. It was perfectly paced. Your mileage will vary, and that will be the result of the attentive staff and kitchen, who are quietly monitoring the pace of your food consumption so that everything is served exactly when you'd like it to be. Unzen Kyushu Hotel offers a choice of Japanese and Western-Japanese fusion meals, both for dinner and breakfast. Given we were there for 3 nights, we went with Japanese - Fusion - Japanese, and we were happy with the choice. Everything was unique, varied and umami-filled, even for breakfast, and we felt the quality was up there with the best ryokans and hotels in Japan. By this time, we weren't surprised... Kyushu (and Nagasaki) has awesome seafood, vegetables and fruits (the latter two thanks to the fertile volcanic soil), so chefs have top-notch ingredients to play with. Something

From the approach to the entrance, lobby, dining, library, etc., everything is a photo spot. The room (superior twin) is a classic and simple furnishing of the wooden center (especially impressed by the opening and closing of the wooden frame window). The quality of the equipment and amenities is high, and it seems comfortable even for long stays (however, the leakage of the fashionable hand shower in the cat foot bathtub is x). Dinner is a French course choice. Dare to leave the smell of jibie and thick saw It was a traditional taste to enjoy the so. The large communal bath was made of Western style with stained glass, but it was a little disappointing because the hot springs were colorless and odorless. Overall, maintain the service level in a shortage of staff Therefore, it seems that the number of guests is limited (there were more than a dozen pairs on Saturday in late October), and the side to use was very comfortable. However, I was impressed by the tradition of classic hotels and the attitude to maintain this. , I was satisfied enough this time, so I honestly think that I don't have to revisit for the time being. Especially with the impression that there are few young staff, and when I review it from a new (young) perspective, It seemed to be a more attractive hotel.

I was as little apprehensive staying here given the poor ratings, but I couldn't have been happier. Staff were friendly, and made an effort, although only 1 reception girl spoke any English. I had a Japanese style room overlooking the lake. It was massive, and very comfortable. The only issue was that the windows weren't double glazed, and it was freezing outside (-8c overnight), and the sitting area got extremely cold. I guess it doesn't normally get this cold though. The room was warm with the sliding doors closed. The onsen were perfectly acceptable. The rooftop one was great in the snow! I had half board. The food options were extensive at both breakfast and dinner. If you don't eat Japanese food the choice will be quite limited though. Good selection of free drinks, and decent selection of paid for alcoholic drinks. There's loads of common areas and places to relax. A previous commenter mentioned the long corridors, which is true, the wrong room can mean long walks to the onsen and restaurant. Overall, 5*. But remember this is a JAPANESE hotel, catering to domestic tourists, so don't expect an international style hotel!

highly recommended This year, the hotel with the best experience of ”one berth and two meals” in Kyushu, Unzen Fukudaya, has been managed by the family for 50 years, and is now the second-generation operation. Inquiries: info@fukudaya.co.jp The most important thing is that there is a patient and careful Chinese young couple working in the store, one is responsible for the front hall and the other is responsible for catering. Traffic problems. Dinner was good, sulphur springs were good, and it was not expensive to book a private pool, which was great. Very worthwhile hotel, will organize friends to go next time! Reminder, there are Island Rail 1-day or 2-day tickets sold in Isahaya (Adult 3500 / Child 1750 yen, including trains and cars). If you go directly to the hotel from Isahaya, it is recommended to take a bus directly in Isahaya , About 50 minutes. If you want to take a small yellow train deliberately, you must get to the main station Shimabara, change the bus in the direction of Unzen at the gate, and it will take 2 hours to get to the hotel.

The location of the hotel is indeed the best of Yunxian, built on the volcanic lake. The Japanese emperor who had just ascended the throne had also stayed there. The hot springs here look out over the entire volcanic lake on the second floor. It is a red iron-containing acid spring, but the overall facilities are old and the service is somewhat slow, not as enthusiasm as a traditional Japanese hotel, and the price/performance ratio is comparable to that of the soup stayed the day before. Not too high

I saw word of mouth and stayed with only expectation of hot springs. The quality of the spring was as expected. I think it is not bad overall if I don't expect meals. The improvement is as follows. The parking lot is difficult to understand. I didn't know if I had to get off the car and listen to the inn. As a result, I was parked for free in the paid parking lot in front of the sky hotel. There is no drinking water in the cherry blossom bath. You can't change the hot water in the cherry blossom pot. There are few cherry blossom outlets.

An hour and a half by taxi from Nagasaki Station. To the famous Unzen Onsen. It feels like a small Owakudani in Hakone. The inn is this inn when it comes to Nagasaki. Stayed in a separate private room with an open-air bath. The Sukiya-zukuri made by the Miya carpenter has a cool appearance and a splendid building with pillars, but the facilities inside are a long time ago. The garden is wonderful, the open-air bath is the best, the hot water is moderate, and the amenities are substantial. There is a set of cosmetics of a certain pearl in a resort hotel in Tokushima, and the feeling of service a long time ago is undeniable. The number of dishes was too large to enjoy everything. Sashimi is normal, probably because the season I went to was not good. The meat was fatty. However, the staff was really impressed. I am admired by the politeness, cleanliness, and behavior. I think it is worth staying only for the staff's hospitality service.

Second use 〜 overnight stay. The room is beautiful. I just sleep I think it's enough. The meal is a discount ticket for the tavern nearby This was used again for the second time 〜 (laughs) The restaurant was prosperous because the dishes were delicious. It's the first hot spring, but it's not in the hotel. I took a bath at another hotel. I think this is good because it is a night stay and cheap. There are various encounters 〜 (^^) and when you climb a little slope, there's a cold spring of carbonated water I brought it back with a PET bottle and used it in the bath. It seems to be good for the skin. Please come near it.
