また泊まりたい。

モダンでとても綺麗にしている宿。部屋はとても快適、大浴場には替えのタオルがあり、気持ちよくすごせた。夕飯は頂かず、朝食のみのプランであったが、朝食は地産地消でとてもよかった。おすすめです。

좋은료칸

온천수도 좋고 깔끔한 료칸임. 스태프들이 너무 친절함. 모든 료칸이 그렇듯 다만 겨울엔 좀 추움. 3층까지 있는데 엘리베이터가 없으나 짐은 스태프들이 들어줌.

An excellent place for your vacation!

We had a lovely time at Sekoen. Everyone there is very professional. Their smiling faces really light the the days of guests. The meals are very delicious and they are very thoughtful to include local delicacy in their dishes. I am especially impressed with the way they serve the breakfast and dinner. They explain the ingredients and the way to enjoy food in details so they we can not only enjoy the food, but also get to know more about the local food culture. We stayed there for 2 nights and we were upgraded to a bigger room with private bath on the second night. We really enjoyed it. My big thanks to everyone at Seikoen to make my stay there extremely enjoyable. I will definitley recommend the place.

It is a very traditional Japanese onsen in a very traditional Japanese town. It is not ultra luxurious but the whole atmosphere gives you a really good Japanese experience. What was really outstanding though - and we ate at really good places on this trip - was their dinner. Exceptional.

A Jewel in Town

Enjoyed the private onsen that overlooks the garden. Must have been a great sight in Spring and Summer. Service was good both at the reception and the restaurant. It's one of the better looking hotels in the area.

It was my first ryokan and knocked me off my feet. After a month it felt like the first truly Japanese lodging experience.

This is a beautiful onsen hotel with exceptional staff. The food was varied and first rate. Nothing was too difficult to accommodate during our stay. A great base for the sites in and around Aso.

美味しいお料理とゆったり客室の温泉旅館

大分のオートポリスに行く為にこちらに滞在しました。 施設自体は新しくない為 第一印象は『普通』でしたが、一歩中へ入れば「キチンとおもてなしをしよう」という気持ちが伝わる接客で、好印象。 食事も土地柄を活かした料理で良かったです。 部屋は11畳洗面＆トイレ付き。風呂を1日目は大浴場 2日目は貸切風呂にしました。貸し切りは、ゆったりと入れてとても気持ちが良かったです。 アニメ『弱虫ペダル』の中にも出てきた旅館だそうで、全巻揃っていたのも興味深いです。与謝野晶子ゆかりの宿、との事ですが時代を経て新しい『聖地』になっているのかもしれません。 とにかく、オートポリスにも車で30分ほどで到着できましたし、途中の景色があまりにも素晴らしく 雄大な自然の絶景を満喫できたので この宿にして良かった！と思えました。 朝食の開始時刻が7：30なのですが、無理言って7：10にしていただきました。わがままを聞いて下さりありがとうございました。おかげさまでレースにも間に合いました。 また次もこちらに泊まりたいなと思っております。
