The hotel waiters were very polite and helped us carry us to the room. The hot spring rooms are all independent, with two indoor rooms and two open-air rooms. The open-air room has natural wind and is very comfortable. Breakfast and kaiseki meals are served in separate rooms. Very satisfied with this stay.

Guest UserОнсен и домики у уединенной деревне. Добраться можно только на такси. Но оно есть около станции.
Ребята плохо говорят по английски, но очень стараются помочь.
Просторный домик с собственными ваннами есть на улице, есть в домике.
Домик комфортный везде кондиционеры.
Ужин и завтрак хорошие, Но я встречал и лучше :)
Проблема была в оплате. Почему-то на Трип ком забыл поставить оплату а на месте они принимают только наличкой. Пришлось прям потрудиться чтобы найти как оплатить.

The hotel staff are warm and welcoming, the breakfast and dinner they serve are impressive and I personally think it is better than the hotel. The hotel has only five rooms, Shaodong has stayed in the United States, can speak fluent English, and the proprietress can also speak simple English. Everyone gossips homely, making people feel at home.

Anonymous UserBecause of the night flight arrived at the airport, the accommodation booked in the case of inconvenient transportation, I did not expect fortunately to arrive before 22:00, the owner is very very friendly 🥹 has been waiting for me! Although the language barrier but she was very kind to tell me the bus schedule, the next morning it rained heavily and personally sent me to the station very moved 💗 very warm
Because very late arrival and very early to leave, although the accommodation environment is an old-style inn, but things are very complete and very clean feeling (shoes can not wear into the inn) always feel the boss is very careful to operate worthy of praise 👍

Anonymous UserI stayed at the first night of my Kagoshima trip and used it for day trip hot springs and dinner on the last day.
Despite the reasonable price of less than 5,000 yen for a night stay, the hot springs are flowing from the source where you can enjoy looking at the river. The day trip hot spring is available for 300 yen, and shampoo, conditioner, body soap is also complete.
In addition, I was unintentionally relaxed in the healing space where dogs and cats welcomed me.
You can enjoy the dishes outdoors like a river floor, and of course you can enjoy the river from the room.
Arrived by late flight at night and check-in was around 22:00, but the envy of the red lantern that suddenly appeared in the mountains was like a Yuya of ”Spirited Away”, and it was exciting before entering the building.
The building has a modern atmosphere, and you can see the river from your room, and you can spend a luxurious time enjoying sake while watching the river flow.

Guest UserCan be reserved to be sent to the hotel by the airport, the flight was delayed for several hours, and the airport was also welcomed by the airport. The Japanese-style room is large and comfortable. Only the open air wind is not too hot. Dinner buffet buffet is rich

丁1. Location: The hotel is at the foot of the shrine, and you can go up the mountain at any time within 2 minutes. The environment is particularly good, quiet, and can sleep in the mountains. 2, facilities: in addition to a little old, the other should have everything - the shared bathroom is next to it; the endless source of hot spring water with a smell of sulfur, want to soak it; teapot tea cups complete tea, special thirst quenching after the hot spring bath, there is one person A local refreshment - biscuits... 3. Service: There is still a distance of ten minutes from the JR Station of the Jingu Station to the hotel. The bus is very small. After the appointment by phone, the boss will drive in time to pick up. We will send us to the JR station in the morning of the next day. 4, health: clean and tidy. 5, catering: booked with a half-food package, dinner and breakfast with a rich set of food content, tastes good.
