Ibusuki Onsen Zekkei Rotenburo no Yado Ibusuki Royal Hotel

A family trip with my son and his wife. At check-in, the proprietress personally welcomed us at the entrance—thank you for doing so in the heat. From the guidance around the property, to attentive service during meals, to seeing us off when we left, everything was excellent. Even though she was very busy, she took the time to speak to every guest. The meals were delicious, and breakfast in particular was lavish—we were completely satisfied! The Onsen was also wonderful; the slightly hot water left us feeling refreshed. We will definitely return. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

Because we enjoyed our stay last year, we decided, “Let’s stay at Ibusuki Royal Hotel again for this summer vacation!” This year, the proprietress also greeted us during dinner. She was wonderful. Everyone—at the front desk and in the dining area—was lovely and welcoming, always with a smile. While many hotels serve buffet-style meals, this Hotel offers kaiseki-style dinners and breakfasts, with delicious dishes brought to your table. They had a “mini festival” again this year, and our grandchild loved it. We also enjoyed the pool. Sipping coffee in the lobby while looking out over the vast ocean—and watching two black kites circling calmly around the Hotel—was such a relaxing time. We also love the open-air bath with an ocean view. Next time, I think we might choose a larger Japanese-Western style room.
