Yusai: The Echo of the Hot Spring Gorge
Kumamoto Prefecture/Onsen Areas Around Kurokawa OnsenRelax in a serene moment away from the daily hustle and bustle in our Japanese-modern inspired guest rooms.
Moments filled with warmth and kindness. Our facility boasts the largest bathing area in Kurokawa Onsen, featuring 4 spacious indoor baths, 3 open-air baths, and 2 private baths—all offering gentle, mildly alkaline spring water directly sourced from the Onsen. For dinner and breakfast, enjoy our "new buffet style," focusing on taste and quality rather than quantity. Indulge in luxurious gourmet dishes and a carefully curated all-you-can-drink selection.
The Onsen was a comfortable size and felt wonderful. The bamboo bath was especially relaxing. Since there is an Onsen for guests, we were able to enjoy it at a leisurely pace.The meals were buffet-style, and everything was delicious, with a menu that both adults and children could enjoy.If the observatory had been available, we could have enjoyed Kurokawa’s night sky even more. We knew it was out of order, but since there was a poster displayed, our child got excited and ended up disappointed.
博多りよこう 4/8/2026We visited Kurokawa Onsen to celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary. Considering the quality of the onsen, service, and location, we were able to fully experience the charm of Kurokawa Onsen. What we especially recommend is enjoying onsen hopping as a couple (using the bathing pass while also enjoying the baths at our accommodation), allowing us to try various types of onsen water. The only downside was that there was no hot spring component analysis chart displayed at Yusai's accommodation, which was quite disappointing. We hope they will consider displaying it in the future. Other than that, we had a relaxing time in a calm atmosphere surrounded by nature and felt truly rejuvenated.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Onsen
Relax and unwind in our gentle, mildly alkaline natural Onsen, surrounded by bamboo groves, mountain streams, and the soothing scent of cypress. Enjoy a tour of our baths within the facility, featuring four spacious indoor baths (among the largest in Kurokawa Onsen), three open-air baths, and two private baths—all with free-flowing spring water directly from the source. After your bath, take a moment to relax at our rest area. Experience warmth and tranquility at your leisure.







Meals are served in our buffet hall, newly renovated in November 2022, spanning approximately 300 tatami mats. We offer a "new buffet style" that prioritizes taste and quality over quantity. During dinner, enjoy unlimited drinks including not only soft drinks but also beer and cocktails. Savor a variety of Japanese and Western fusion dishes that can be enjoyed by both adults and children alike.





Time flows gently in this serene Japanese-style accommodation, offering a tranquil and soothing atmosphere. The windows reveal seasonal landscapes, while the terrace provides a view of the mountain stream. Uncommon for a Ryokan, many guest rooms are equipped with beds, allowing you to enjoy traditional Japanese aesthetics alongside the comfort of a Hotel. Spacious rooms accommodating up to 5 guests are perfect for families or group trips. Immerse yourself in the refined air of modern Japanese design and indulge in a luxurious moment of true relaxation.
