Good Onsen Hotel
Reviewed By rpverVery nice Yufuin ryokan located at the other end of town from the train/bus station, about a 15 minute walk. Advise using Google maps when walking around, especially after dark. It has both public and three private onsens and options for both breakfast and dinner. We stayed two nights and had the breakfast option. The two breakfasts were both very delicious and completely delicious different. We had dinner at nearby restaurants. The staff were all very helpful and courteous. The hotel was a bit pricey.

Top notch onsen experience
Reviewed By ratdog2063We stayed in a 3 room special room with irori. Extremely generous in size. Private outside bath, charcoal pit, the surprises kept coming. the ladies outdoor onsen is huge with a mountain view. Several private baths you can use when free. Food was amazing with local produce. Why stay in an ordinary onsen when you xan experience this. Highly recommended.

Authentic......but
Reviewed By Iain GWe had a confirmed reservation here for three nights on our travel documents. When we booked in they had two nights. It was our travel companies fault. The staff, especially Morachi? Were very helpful, and managed to get us the third night down the road. Anything else would have been a disaster. Room wise it was lovely, Japanese style, but due to the wood, very noisy, and we had to pull our mattresss into the living room to get some sleep. Breakfast Japanese style was amazing. Onsen was an experience well worth doing.

Quintessential Japan
Reviewed By HKAMODWhat a fabulous experience of Japan! Hot spring bath inside our room and traditional Japanese Tatami beds. The breakfasts were meticulously presented and delicious. Service - outstanding. On the day of our departure, we could not book a taxi or even buy bus/train tickets to Fukuoka. A staff member drove us to Fukuoka in his personal car. That’s 1.5 hours away by car!!! They would not allow us to pay for the trip! Such kindness and dedication to the customer. I cannot recommend Itsuki Ryokan enough.

Heaven on Earth
Reviewed By 栞 近Tsukanoma is located uphill of the Yufuin basin, where is relatively quiet and calm area in Yufuin. It’s a bit away from central location and seems taking a taxi would be the best access (it’s possible to go on foot too though). I stayed at this ryokan with the no meal option (Still, they have a cozy restaurant which serves very good Onsen-steamed meals. And we enjoyed healthy and delicious dinner there with reasonable price). The room is quite large and maintained decently. Every villa has private bathes for each and they also have big open-air Onsen which is unforgettably beautiful and relaxing (actually I was there for about 2 hours!). Onsen water is extremely smooth, no smell, proper temperature, and so whitish that I couldn’t see the bottom (I’m not sure how). Mt. Yufu can be seen from the big bathes during the day. I believe the most prominent features of this ryokan is the extremely excellent Onsen. Onsen and meal option without staying can be also available. Service is perfect, the meals are healthy, Onsen is a heaven on earth. If you are looking for somewhere you can relax from the bottom of your heart and want to be spoiled, I assure Tsukanoma is the best place to go.

Villa Touou can really sleep 7 of us
Reviewed By SKW66We (5 adults and 2 kids) stayed one night in Villa Touou. 2 staffers were already meeting us at the parking area who also directed us to drive to the villa right away. The check in was just done swiftly in the villa where the kids can settle down easily. The welcome snack was so delicious I regret I didn't finish the ones my other family members didn't consume. There was one standalone bedroom with 2 double beds facing a toilet (without bath). Then the master bedroom is connected to 1 tatami area and 1 tatami attic. With 7 of us, Ikkoten already set up 2 sets of mattresses in the attic and another 1 in the tatami area. With kids in a rainy weather, we appreciated a lot that the front desk called us before they drove to pick us up to head to the dining room. I guess each room/villa had their own private dining room. Only complaint is that our cars had to park a bit further up slope than the villa. And upon check out, while we were hoping we could drive our car to the front of the villa so that we could load our luggage easier, the hotel amenity car decided to restock our villas and occupied the front space of the villa. While we enjoyed the comfortable living room at night with our whole family, we also wished to try the smaller room where the in-room onsen could also enjoy the fantastic view. The onsen in Villa Touou does not have any view.

Excellent Hotel
Reviewed By momochu_1I've been to Yufuin for three times and I'd pick room with ensuite open-air bath each time. This is the best hotel I've experienced so far. Staff of this hotel are all very friendly, polite and caring. The room was clean, cozy and decent. The most impressive thing is the very high standard of the open-air bath, which is clean and has maintained an optimum temperature at all times. Location of the hotel is also excellent, being very close to Kinrin Lake.

Fantastic!!!
Reviewed By mvuyI want to go back already! Definitely one of the best experiences we had as a family. It was definitely worth it to visit Yufuin during winter and the ryokan didn’t disappoint. One of the reasons why we booked this place was their private onsens. Coming from a different culture where public bathing is not really part of the culture, but we wanted to try, we immediately booked this place when it was referred to us. Their ryokan is really charming and self-sufficient. It was definitely clean and the staff was really accommodating from the very start. They were very patient in introducing their lovely place while we get distracted with how great the place was. We were also lucky to experience their special breakfast for New Year’s. Location is very convenient as it’s walking distance from the train station. It’s also a 20-min walk to Kirinko Lake but longer if you stop at the shops and food stalls along the way. I definitely recommend this place and I can’t wait to go back already.

Relax and Comfortable
Reviewed By Kwok Ho TThis was the first time to visit Yufuin with my family and we decided to book a hotel with in-room hot spring for a night. We loved the traditional Japanese bedroom. The room size is big enough and the hot spring is just outside the bedroom. Room package included breakfast and dinner. The food quality is good and the restaurant staff were very friendly and professional. Just 6 minutes walk to Yufuin Station and the main road with plenty of shops and restaurants. We had a minor issue that there were some black particles (no idea what they are) from the tap water of the bathtub in the washroom. Therefore, we didn’t use it. We hope it would be an isolated issue.
