"できたばかりなのもあり、ホテル自体はすごくきれいでした。ただ、色々と不便な部分があり、まず、ツインの部屋に小さなテーブルもないし夜食を食べるのにテレビの部分のちょっとしたテーブルでみんな立ちながら食べました。また、大浴場は日帰りのお客さんが多く、サウナはギチギチでマットも汗でビチャビチャ、さらに朝方、禁煙のはずが部屋にタバコの匂いがしており、廊下にでるとフロア全体がタバコ臭でひどかったです。おそらく、換気扇等で匂いがもれているのかな？綺麗なホテルで期待していただけに色々と残念でした。"

Top Shimo-era Hotel Reviews

AMANE RESORT SEIKAI

8/10 Good

"A great choice to get a private onsen. The room was clean and well stocked with amenities. Furnishings were pleasant bar the small and flat pillows which wouldn't normally feature in such a review, but for the price you would think the pillows would be more plush and full. I got a room upgrade, presumably as they had overbooked the standard private onsen room and I stayed only one night. The check in and interactions with staff go out of their way to appear luxurious but are just tedious. For example, leaving the key card each time you leave is quite irritating. So is parking your car and not giving you your key back. Location is a two fold component of this hotel, with world class views across the seto inland sea from the rooms, but when booking I didn't realise the actual frontage was on some sort of dystopian American suburbia knock off. As you can imagine the surrounds don't lend themselves to walking."

Ryokan Hachisunoito

10/10 Excellent

"We loved staying at the Ryokan Hachisunoito. It is a 7-10 minute walk from the JR Yufu station. Ryokan was recently renovated in a traditional Japanese style mixed with Western touches. The staff was friendly, welcoming, caring and helpful. Rajesh checked us in and made sure that we enjoyed our breakfast and dinner on all three days of our stay. He was also instrumental in making sure our bags were shipped to our next hotel in a timely manner. The Western-style breakfast and Japanese-style dinner were excellent. The Sake served was also of good quality. The private Onsen experience was amazing. We can’t wait to return to Yufuin and stay at the Ryokan Hachisunoito."

Beppu Hattou Onyado Nono Beppu

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel has everything! The location is steps from the train station but you don’t know you are near the station when you are at the hotel as it is very quiet. If you are lucky, you can get a room with a sea view. The breakfast is amazing with lots of choices. The staff were very welcoming and helpful. And the onsens are beautiful and plentiful."

Yufuin Yawaraginosato Yadoya

10/10 Excellent

"all are amazing amazing!!! room is extremely clean and nice with big windows on dadami, and has every single item, small or not, required for daily life. staff in front desk, dining room and breakfast and others are kind, polite to the end. we feeling like king and queen. breakfast and dinner was delicious in the taste as we never had before.unbelievable taste.
