Came here with friends and the location of this place is absolutely amazing! The room was spacious, and we could walk everywhere to explore. The open-air bath was also a treat!
Especially, the staff member on May 7th, who spoke Korean incredibly well, was so kind and helpful. They gave us great recommendations for local restaurants, which really made our trip. I wanted to thank them during checkout, but they weren't there, so I couldn't.
We had a wonderful time with friends here!

The staff were friendly and everything was clean. There were many private onsens, which made it very convenient to use them whenever I wanted.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel! There are five private onsens available, and we had a lot of fun trying each of them out. The view outside the hotel was beautiful — perfect for taking photos and just relaxing. The hotel is located near a train track, so you can feel a slight rumble when the train passes, but it wasn’t a big issue for us. Other than that, the atmosphere was peaceful and the surroundings were truly beautiful. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Ryokan style stay and was served breakfast in the morning. Pleasantly surprised that there's a leg warmer under the dining table which was useful in keeping us warm and cosy

Okaeri Ryokan in Yufuin is a small and cozy establishment with a quiet and peaceful environment. The hotel is clean and comfortable, the onsen (hot spring) provides complete relaxation, and the staff are friendly yet approachable. It's a comfortable and stress-free place to stay, perfect for those who want to escape the tourist crowds and have a peaceful night's rest.

I revisited Yufuin and booked a hotel with an onsen.
When I arrived, the owner warmly greeted me and spoke English and Japanese. Even though it was our first time meeting, he was so welcoming,
and I was so grateful. If I ever return to Yufuin, I'd definitely book here again.
It was such a great place. The private onsen bath was especially lovely.
The breakfast was delicious too!!!

The building itself is quite old, but it's very well-maintained. It's very clean and odorless. Snacks and drinks are available in the lounge, and the tatami mats are very comfortable. The hotel has a hot spring bath, and I was lucky enough to be able to soak in the open-air one. The train tracks pass right by, and I could hear the trains passing by while soaking. The atmosphere is unique and I loved it. The breakfast was just right. I couldn't eat greasy food after getting up, and the whole set meal was very refreshing. It would have been nice to have refills on the soup; it was great to have it hot in the morning. I was greeted by a ********* staff member, who was very friendly. I wish her all the best in her career and life at this hotel! The other staff members were also very friendly. It felt like home. There's also parking available if you drive. If I visit Yufuin again, I'll definitely choose this hotel.

The staff were all very friendly, and the rooms and public areas were very clean. The hot spring baths are divided into indoor and outdoor sections, both private and lockable. There are three indoor baths, from left to right: stone, earth, and mountain, with the water getting hotter towards the right. The outdoor baths have a comfortable and pleasant temperature. Overall, it's a very comfortable and tranquil hot spring hotel.

Friendly and helpful staff. When checking in, the staff introduced the facilities in the hotel in detail and helped to take the luggage to the room. The service was very thoughtful. This time we stayed in Room 101, which is very close to the open-air hot spring, so we could enjoy the pleasure of bathing alone. The room is a Japanese-style tatami, which is quite comfortable to sleep in. It's a pity that you can't see the natural scenery outside the window and the bathroom is outside the room. Although it is a Japanese-style hotel, it is very quiet at night.

The room was cleaned very well, but the sink in the room was too small, so I had to go to the public sink outside to wash. It was very convenient to deliver breakfast to the room. There was no bathroom in the room, so I had to go to the public hot spring on the first floor to take a shower.

The facilities were good and it was a very kind and nice ryokan. Especially, since the bath is well-maintained, you can use it privately, and it is close to the station, so it is easy to access. There is lotion and 7-Eleven nearby, and there are many things to eat. I want to visit again next time 😆

First time staying in these small Japanese-style hot spring inn, feels quite special, the hotel does not have gorgeous decoration, but there is a very warm feeling, check-in procedure is very simple Spring ♨️ (see photos have outdoor, but did not take us to, so did not see), accommodates three to four people, it is designed to wait for you to soak in the hot spring, shower and go back to the room, so the room only toilet and sink, no bathroom The plate is public, there is also a lounge area with microwave, hot and cold water heater, coffee, drink brew, candy and snacks available, the whole inn is wooden floors, wooden stairs are my preferred building materials; There is a river behind the museum, on both sides of the cherry trees (variety: Somei Yoshino) and rapeseed flowers, we 23-25/3/2025 stay unfortunately can not fit the flowering period, finally here the staff is very ... very good ❤️ enthusiastic, polite, friendly enough smile 😊 I will come again to stay 🥰🥰🥰
