Ξενοδοχεία με 2-Star σε Oita Prefecture, Japan

It’s the third time we came to Yufuin. Previously, we stayed in onsen hotels with meals provided. This time we are staying for 2 months in Japan to experience the local life, and Yufuin was our third stop, where we stayed for 6 nights. The service is top notch. The host responded very quickly whenever I had queries, and very clear instructions for free pick-up were given days before check-in. As we stepped in the house, the air- conditioner had already been turned on there were 3 big bottles of water in the fridge which made us feel so welcome. They collected our trash every day and asked us what we needed. The guesthouse is an independent unit full of beautiful Japanese decorations. It was sparkling clean and thoughtfully furnished with everything you need. A first-aid box was provided. We were given 12 sets of clean towels and toilet amenities, including toothbrushes. We have stayed in different apartments before and have never experienced this. More importantly, the kitchen was well equipped with everything—many cutlery items of different sizes and even wine glasses. There were a hot pot and a frying pan, a toaster, rice cooker, coffee machine, and even a dishwasher. You can't imagine there is even a massage chair! The bathroom was designed like an onsen. You can simply add some onsen powder to enjoy a hot bath. You can easily access different attractions on foot. The location is about a 20-minute walk to the nearby supermarkets, 25 minutes to the main shopping streets, and 30 minutes to the JR station. If you drive, it is even easier. For us, we enjoyed walking and seeing the beautiful scenery, so it was not a problem for us even though we didn’t drive. Every day we walked to the supermarkets and bought fresh produce to cook. We had so much fun making different dishes and hot pot. When we asked for a whetstone, the host quickly gave us theirs, and the next day, they bought us a new one. They even gave us sake as a gift. On the day of check-out, the host drove us to the JR station and helped us store our luggage in the visitors’ centre. Next time when we come to Yufuin, we will definitely stay here again. It’s really great value for money.

A lovely guesthouse with a spacious, clean room and free parking available upon request. The shared area is lively and includes a small kitchen for light meals which is a nice touch. The receptionists were friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. If on-site parking is unavailable, there’s a 24-hour parking option just a 5-minute walk away at a reasonable rate. There are also plenty of eateries nearby with affordable prices. Overall, we had a great experience and would happily stay here again if we return to the city.

I stayed here for 2 out of 3 nights. I booked it because of its good location, affordable price, and the fact that I could smoke. The exterior is surprisingly old, which caught me off guard at first, haha. I booked a Japanese-style room, and once inside, it had a wonderfully calming and indescribably lovely atmosphere. After a tiring day exploring Yufuin and Beppu, returning at night felt like coming home; the fluffy futons, table, and Zaisu (floor chairs) were incredibly comforting. The front desk staff were all very kind gentlemen. Even though it was close to 11 PM, when I asked to borrow a hairdryer, they offered to bring it to my room instead of making me go get it, showing excellent service. I always choose Japanese-style rooms when available (as I dislike beds), and this has become one of my favorite hotels. Although old, it was meticulously clean. The cleaning staff I met in the morning were as polite as the front desk, making for a pleasant check-out. If I ever go to Beppu again, I'd definitely want to stay here! The station is right in front, so I could reach the bus, tourist information center, and coin lockers in just a minute first thing in the morning, which made my Saturday trip, even with the crowds, very comfortable. As it was my first time in Kyushu, it made for a great memory. Thank you!

I recently stayed at a traditional Japanese onsen hotel, and it was an amazing experience. The hotel offers private onsens, which provided an incredible level of privacy and relaxation—perfect for anyone trying onsen for the first time. It was so peaceful and serene, and the entire experience felt like a perfect escape from the stresses of daily life. The breakfast was simple yet delicious, offering traditional Japanese dishes that gave me a true taste of the local culture. It was light and satisfying—just what you need to start the day. The tatami bed was also an experience in itself, offering a unique and authentic Japanese way to rest. I slept incredibly well on it, and it added to the overall charm of staying in such a traditional setting. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful, making me feel very welcomed and taken care of throughout my stay. The location was great—easy to access, with Tang Zhi Ping Road just a short distance away for anyone looking to explore. Plus, they offer free parking, which made it super convenient to travel around. Overall, this hotel is the perfect place for rest and relaxation, especially for those who want to try onsen in a private and peaceful setting. Highly recommend for anyone looking for an authentic, calming experience!

Everything was ideal and well-arranged. I have two suggestions for improvement: First, not being able to check-in after 8:00 PM is a huge problem. It would be very troublesome if a flight were delayed. In fact, a family of five encountered this exact situation right when I was checking in. Second, the room facilities are a bit old, but the cleanliness is still acceptable.

The hotel's location is excellent, right by the sea, perfect for a morning stroll. The duvet is cotton and very comfortable. The main highlight is the hot spring bath, which is incredibly relaxing.

The staff members were all very friendly and welcoming. The hotel overall was very cozy, particularly the onsens. Although all the four onsens were opened for all guests at the hotel, you can use one of them as long as you want because guests are instructed to hang a sign on the onsen to show that it is currently occupied. This is a great way for the guests to enjoy privacy to themselves, although it is opened publicly. Dinner and breakfast was included in the package so we did not have to worry about finding nearby restaurants. The food was delicious here! Would definitely recommend if you enjoy traditional Japanese meals to get the full experience. We had a private barbecue for dinner, and it was truly immaculate! However, there was smoke all over the hotel lobby coming from the barbecue so it would have been better if they kept the windows opened. It was also indoors so it was slightly overwhelming with all the smoke everywhere in the restaurant. But everything else was on point and breakfast was particularly delicious. 

Love their open air onsen and the location is just opposite to the train station. If u wish to stay at Yufuin, this place is a good choice with the amount of money they charge for a night as the price of the hotel in Yufuin if relatively more expensive than Beppu. The room is abit dark, during my stay one of the lights is not functioning, but I still think it worth the price and I decided to extend another night here after I checked in.

it's a small homey inn, amazing for cat lovers. you get to spend 1h in a room full of super friendly cats. their homemade breakfast and dinner is delicious and very filling - you even get to eat next to another room of cats! the only downside is the location, which is 1 short train station (comes every 40mins) away from beppu station. it's a bit in the residential area, and the walk from higashibeppu station can get a bit quiet and dark, but overall still a great place to stay!

This hotel is exceptionally clean and hygienic, a clear priority for the owner. You're required to take off your shoes and wear designated slippers inside, and there's a separate pair for the onsen facilities. After my hot spring bath, I accidentally wore the onsen slippers back to my room, which really startled the owner! However, she was very hospitable and even booked private hot spring times for guests, so you don't have to share with others – it was incredibly comfortable and relaxing. The hotel is close to Lake Kinrin, which is why I chose it, specifically to see the morning mist. The price was also more reasonable than places near the station. The only minor drawback was that dinner and breakfast were quite simple, so you might need to supplement them if you want a full meal. You can see cherry blossoms from the room, and the panoramic view of Yufu city is stunning. Overall, I highly recommend it.
