GGuest UserLocation is extremely close to Yufuyuan station, staff English communication is good, check in is simple, because there is no elevator, staff helped carry luggage to the room, the room is very large and comfortable, and clean, bathtub worthy of praise, but to take a hot spring bath and bake sauna, so did not use.

SSiwalefunuotasuoA very satisfactory small house with three rooms that can accommodate at least 6 people
The kitchen is fully equipped. I stayed for two nights and cooked two big meals. It was a lively and warm experience
The room facilities are very new and clean
The location is about 700 to 800 meters away from the busiest street in Yufuin. You can get there by walking down the hill and turning a corner.
If you drag your luggage to arrive from the JR station on foot, it will be more difficult. It takes about 2 kilometers and it is also tiring to go up the mountain. It is recommended to take a taxi
Overall, it is highly recommended. There are parking spaces. It is suitable for family self-driving travel. The cost performance is very high

고고래박물관All the staff were friendly.
I felt like I was being treated well.
It's a bit far from downtown Yufuin, but a taxi from the station costs about 1,000 yen. The ryokan is very large, so it was a bit far to go to the room after breakfast and dinner, but I was able to listen to the sound of water and look at the trees, and it was a quiet time.
The family bath was really nice, but there weren't many guests, so I could use it freely, and there was no time limit for use, so I was happy.
The room was also in the style of a traditional Japanese house, so I was able to really feel like I was traveling, and it was really nice.
The food was delicious, but dinner was too loose for Koreans. I asked for the next dish to be served right away in the latter half. I need to know how to enjoy my time, but Korean blood can't be helped 🤭
Ah, Gettoan Original Takju! It was so delicious that I drank three bottles in total. I don't like alcohol, but I drank it all by myself! I was very disappointed that it wasn't sold.
There weren't many reviews online, so I was half excited and half worried, but it was so much better than I imagined, so I was so happy about my first trip to Yufuin, and I think the aftertaste will last a long time. There were Korean staff members, and Japanese Ms. Lina is trying hard to learn Korean, so I was so grateful that she tried her best to speak Korean.
I was touched that they even printed out the snapshots of the pictures they took of our first dinner.
I will definitely visit again someday.
We are a couple getting married soon, so we will visit as a couple next time.
I think I will miss the takju too!
It was so much fun.

AACNFOur ryokanl booking came with sukiyaki dinner and breakfast. We enjoyed the dinner very much but had to skip the breakfast due to our tight schedule. The ryokan had a cosy atmosphere, almost as if like we were staying at a good friend's house. There were a few cute and friendly cats which were mostly hanging around the courtyard and reception area. Nice onsen private onsen baths.
Wished that the ryokan had provided luggage stands for us to put our luggages instead of us having to place our luggages on the floor and on the sofa.

GGuest UserIt is very convenient for self-driving tours. Google map can accurately reach the destination. The front desk clerk is also very friendly and tries to explain various issues in English and introduce places. Dinner and breakfast are also very rich. The garden will have two faces during the day and at night. This place is worth a visit and recommended! ! !

CCrYsTaLjaYStaff are very nice, with traditional style of old onsen hotel, need 12 to 15 mins walk from public transport station, the hotel does not have shuttle bus service, but there are daiso, aeon supermarket and convenience store nearby, and great natural mountain view, the dinner is delicious and full.

AAnonymous UserThe whole place was so clean and everything was as described. It is run by an older friendly couple. The room was spacious, especially compared to the rooms you get in the city. I didn’t include the breakfast for my stay, but everything seemed homemade and quaint. I used the public onsen and showers during my stay. I went there around 9-10pm and it was empty both nights (the onsen closes at 11:30pm). There is a private onsen that you can book in advance if you feel more comfortable using that. The location was right in the middle, between the train/bus station and the main shopping area, which I found very convenient. It was easy to wheel my suitcase over to the hotel from the train station.

LLimJia YingThe 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.

AAnonymous UserThe location is very convenient - close to the station and the bus terminal. The staff is friendly and polite. The room was clean (it was very small, but it was enough for me, because I was alone), the view from the window was pleasing) Cleaning was done once a day (with replacement of yukata, towels, toiletries and trash removal).
Three onsen - on the 1st, 3rd floors and on the roof. I visited two - on the roof (it is VERY hot, but it was still great! Photo No. 2) and on the 3rd floor (it is also essentially in the open air, not as hot and also great, photos No. 3 and 4). Reservation of the time to visit the onsen was upon check-in (plus from a certain time all onsens worked as public, with free access).
P.s. The local cats are adorable! 😊

GGuest UserI stayed for two days. The hotel is on the mountain, but there is a car that can take me to and from the station. The hotel service is very good. Knowing that there are children, they have prepared bathrobes and toothbrushing supplies for the children. The room has a private bath, and I often soaked in the hot spring during my two-day stay. It was so comfortable. In addition, my favorite meal is the Wagyu beef on the first night and the shabu shabu on the second night. The breakfast is different on both days. I look forward to meal time every day.
Some of the staff can speak Mandarin or Cantonese, and they are very nice and attentive to help. It is a hotel worth recommending.
