Beppu Housensou

I traveled with my mother, and it was a truly wonderful trip. I plan to stay longer. We had a wonderful time in Beppu. Thank you.

I was satisfied with the cleanliness and service.

This is a ryokan (Japanese inn) in Beppu run by the Public School Mutual Aid Association. It's one of the facilities included in the Beppu 88 Hot Springs program, and I used it for a day trip to enjoy the baths. The bathing fee was 500 yen. I bathed in the large public bath; it wasn't particularly atmospheric, but the water from the spout was thick and the water quality was very pleasant.

The last time I stayed there during New Year's, I received a coupon for a suite, so I used it. Tsubaki Suite is a wooden Heike villa located in a garden, but the garden is on the entrance side, so I couldn't enjoy the view. There are two rooms with spacious rooms and verandas that can be used, but there were places where the floor looked like it was going to fall out, probably because it had been a long time since then. It was convenient because there was a private open-air bath right in front of us. We had our meals at the dining hall. Unlike the extravagant New Year's dishes, the portions were ordinary and just the right amount for the elderly and women. Toyosenso is within walking distance of Beppu's station and shopping district, so I enjoyed strolling around the townscape.
