Senomoto Kogen Hotel
Kumamoto Prefecture/AsoRelax and rejuvenate with the vast grasslands and starry skies of Aso, surrounded by nature.
This property offers a breathtaking view of Aso's vast grasslands and the opportunity to enjoy stargazing walks and open-air star-viewing baths. Our proud 'Spectacular Nose Hot Spring' allows you to unwind amidst magnificent nature. We provide functional and serene Japanese-modern rooms where you can appreciate Aso's natural beauty from your room. Additionally, you can indulge in the grandeur of Aso's expansive grasslands and ever-changing seasonal landscapes in our spacious open-air baths.
The staff were very pleasant, and everyone was courteous.The Room was clean and spacious, and the garden view from the Room was also beautiful.It was great to see the azaleas in bloom as well.Since it was the rainy season, we couldn’t see the starry sky, but I’d love to try again if I have another chance!Both the breakfast and dinner buffets offered plenty of local dishes, and everything was delicious.I used the open-air bath while it was still bright after check-in. The view is wonderful, but there is no shade at all, so I found the UV rays on my skin a bit uncomfortable. It would be nice to have some sun protection such as a hat-shaped shade or parasols—especially for women.Overall, it was a Hotel I was very satisfied with!
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 6/22/2026We truly appreciated receiving a gift for our anniversary, and we were very grateful to be upgraded to a Room with an open-air bath.The meals were delicious. The in-room open-air bath was very relaxing and felt wonderful as we soaked while listening to frogs and insects. However, we did get mosquito bites, so insect repellent is necessary.The outdoor open-air bath was also relaxing, with birdsong as background music while enjoying the highland scenery where cows were grazing. We would love to come back again to experience this special getaway that you can’t find in the city.

Have you ever continuously gazed at Aso from a single location? Sometimes it peeks out from a sea of clouds, blushes under the sunset, or appears refreshed after the rain... It sounds peculiar, but it's true. At the "Senomoto Kogen Hotel" located at an altitude of 920 meters, we offer "special seats" where you can enjoy the views of Aso from your Room, Onsen, and dining area.

Aso, with its ever-changing beauty over time, offers a captivating view that one can admire endlessly. All rooms are designed to provide enjoyment of this breathtaking scenery. The West Wing, newly renovated with the theme "Harmony with Nature," features a simple space with natural tones and local Oguni cedar objects.
