"This is really something to be experienced. It is new (2023) and massive - hundreds and hundreds of guests. It is a spa, first and foremost. The rooms are huge, quiet, and elegant; the numerous staff are efficient and multi-lingual. Hot springs in the building, hundreds of guests strolling about in hotel yukata, views of the peaks and ocean. The optional meals are definitely recommended - the food is fantastic and also it is a long hike to get down the mountain. Partner likened it to a luxury cruise ship on land."

"Everything about this hotel is first class. The Onsen is fantastic and the mountain view is wonderful. You can walk to the train station in less than five minutes. The staff will do everything they can to make your stay memorable. Sauna, two rooftop pools ,a Jacuzzi, flat screen tv, even a small gym, Self service laundry, what else can you ask for? This is my favorite hotel in Japan. "

"Lovely stay at Yufuin. There is a free pick-up and drop-off options available from JR Yufuin Station which is a must unless you want to walk up crazy hills to get to the property. The room we stayed had traditional tatami mats and plenty of space to lounge around before enjoying hot springs. This property allowed us to book a private bath free of charge, and also the public bath that is open til late which was convenient. There is also free Japanese kimono that you can wear during your stay. Many ryokans nowdays charge money to lend you kimono so it was nice that it was there free of charge. We booked Japanese kaiseki-dinner as extra, breakfast was included already into our booking. The food is absolutely divine at this property - Hats off to the chef! The dinner and breakfast was well-presented by attentive and courteous staff which made the stay very enjoyable. Thing to note of this property is that it is located in the mountains so there isn't much to do other than hot springs and a little walk around their courtyard. But it was perfect for us to have this quiet down-time during our travels. "

"This part of our Japanese trip was terrific in all its aspects. We had a bit of drive, and a late lunch was the first thing on the agenda. We were directed to several nearby restaurants to choose where to go. Our luggage was secured. When we returned and checked in, the customer service was exceptional. We were shown all the facilities, and the owner demonstrated how to use them. I was surprised we had to nominate our mealtimes, but I later understood why. We pre-booked dinner, and it was superb. It included hot and cold dishes and was very filling. The quality of the meal was second to none. After dinner, we enjoyed an onsen that was included in our accommodation. I loved it - the privacy and the experience. The bedding on the floor which for someone who was cramping badly overnight - it proved difficult for me to escape the pain. However, that was a distraction rather than any fault with the facility in the scheme of things. Breakfast was equally good. Overall, this was a fabulous stay, and the hosts were typical of the Japanese, very polite and accommodating. When the next day, we visited many of the sites in Beppu, and we were grateful that we took the opportunity to visit the town and this hotel. "

"Very clean and highly attentive staff. "

"This was the best hotel experience ever. All the staff was amazing and spoke every language that we needed."

"Great location if you’re visiting Hyotan Onsen etc. En-suite showers are a little small, and the hot water isn’t very hot (which is strange for a hotel with a hot spring). Not a big deal though because you could just go downstairs and shower in the on site hot spring. The Rooms had a great view of the city and the sea. Overall pretty decent place."

"2박 묵는동안 가족들 모두 편안하게 잘 지냈습니다. 일본어를 전혀 못해서 걱정했는데 리셉션에서 영어로 응대해주셔서 큰 어려움 없이 체크인 할 수 있었습니다.또한 따뜻한 온천탕에서 여행으로 쌓인 피로를 풀 수 있었습니다. 이용객이 많지 않아 저희 가족이 전세 낸 듯 사용할 수 있어 좋았습니다! 저희가족은 노천탕을 기대하고 갔는데 11월~4월까지는 노천탕 운영을 하지 않는다고 하여 이용은 못했습니다. 다음에 노천탕 이용위해서 또 바문 할 의향이 있습니다. 리조트 옆에 편의점이 있고 차로 5분거리에 큰 마트도 있어서 장보기에 편리했습니다. 또한 차로 30분정도 거리에 아프리칸 사파리와 벳푸 시내에 갈 수 있어 접근성이 좋았습니다."

"Nice and kind staff."
