Soak in a natural Onsen with free-flowing spring water and savor fresh seafood and mountain delicacies.
Ueki Onsen "Kirino-yu" is a healing space with abundant natural hot spring water that refreshes both the mind and skin. Featuring rooms with open-air baths, it offers a private onsen experience. The kaiseki cuisine, made with seasonal ingredients from Kumamoto, is highly regarded, allowing you to savor fresh local flavors in a private setting. Located just 40 minutes by car from Kumamoto city, it is a tranquil hot spring village surrounded by rural landscapes, ideal for relaxation. We promise a comfortable stay with heartfelt hospitality.
The Room was clean, and the Onsen was amazing! The food was incredibly delicious and very generous in portion size, so even men will be satisfied! It would be helpful to have a fan in summer.I will definitely come again.
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 6/12/2026All the staff were friendly and provided wonderfully pleasant service. Without me even asking, they seemed to notice my height and prepared a yukata in the next size up with a longer length, and I was truly happy with their thoughtful consideration. The Onsen was also amazing, with silky-smooth water. Both dinner and breakfast were very satisfying in volume, and for someone like me who loves to enjoy many different dishes little by little, the meals were especially delightful. Because it’s quiet and you can relax without worrying about others, this Accommodation is highly recommended for anyone who wants to unwind slowly, including solo travelers. Thank you very much!
