From the Room, we enjoyed a beautiful view of fresh greenery. The birdsong was also soothing. For meals, we were shown to a private dining room, and could dine in a luxurious atmosphere. The view from the open-air bath was outstanding, and all our stress melted away. This is a Hotel that makes you want to come back. We will visit again.

Although the exterior looks old, the Room is well cleaned and the service is attentive. Above all, the bath is outstanding. Breakfast was a buffet, but I gave it 4 stars because it was disappointing that the only dessert was sweet red bean soup.

Twelve of us gathered to celebrate my father’s 88th birthday. The Premium Suite Room was more than spacious enough for six people per Room, and we were completely satisfied. Drinks and snacks were free, and the service was exceptional. We also enjoyed table tennis and karaoke, and we owe this wonderful gathering to this Hotel. Thank you very much.

I enjoyed soaking in Zao Onsen’s strongly acidic, milky-white water with a distinct sulfur scent—this is what an Onsen should be like. Since it’s an old building, there are countless flaws if you start pointing them out, so I stayed while telling myself that’s just how it is. The staff work hard, but not at a level that truly impresses. The meals featured many local specialties and were good, but the rice—the most important part—was too firm at dinner and far too soft at breakfast. This Accommodation is recommended for those who love Onsen.

The Facilities are new, and all the staff were lively and hardworking—it was wonderful. The meals felt so healthy that you’d feel better just by staying here, and even the tea in the lobby made me feel refreshed and detoxed. It was that kind of Ryokan. I deducted one star for the baths because I’m hoping to bring my elderly mother next time, but she has trouble walking, and I worry the stairs before entering the baths might be too difficult. Other than that, the Room was spacious, the food was delicious, and it was a great Accommodation.

This was our last trip of the year. We were fully satisfied with this Ryokan in every way—the cuisine, the Onsen, and the kind hospitality of the staff. There was only one small issue, but it was addressed promptly. We would like to continue coming here in the future.

The dishes made with local Aizu ingredients were truly delicious. Both the large public bath overlooking the river and the in-Room bath were very relaxing.

I booked dinner mainly for the beef sukiyaki, but every other dish was delicious as well. Breakfast was also great, and I had an extra serving of rice. I also appreciated the complimentary coffee. Both dinner and breakfast were generous portions, and I was very satisfied. The Room is a bit old, but it is clean and comfortable. There is no toilet in the Room, but there is a sink, so it didn’t feel inconvenient. The bath was relaxing too. The staff were warm and welcoming, which made me feel truly happy. I would love to visit again.

Both the space and the hospitality were very comfortable. At the end of dinner, rice and eel were served, but the eel was tough and the seasoning wasn’t to my taste. The rice was very delicious. As a Diamond member gift, I received rice. I plan to cook it in a clay pot. The bath is on the small side, but it was very clean with a faint sulfur scent—truly the best Onsen I’ve ever experienced. I was worried because I had facial allergies, but instead the itching went away and the redness subsided. Once again, I was impressed by the power of nature. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us.

I look forward to staying at Pearl Star every summer. Thanks to the staff who provide Shuttle Service with a smile from check-in to check-out, I always have a very pleasant stay. Breakfast is one of the highlights for me, and I like to get seated early and enjoy it at a relaxed pace. This is a Hotel I would love to stay at again and again.

Thank you for the very spacious Room. We also enjoyed the delicious meals.

Thank you very much for your hospitality. This was our first family trip since losing our beloved dog, and we traveled with my elderly parents who have difficulty walking. I thought it might feel a bit sad, but everyone was so kind and had such wonderful smiles that it became a truly enjoyable trip! Our dog’s name was also Fuji, so it felt like we were meant to be here. My parents were also happy that, thanks to the walking support cart, they could choose their own dishes at the buffet. Every dish was amazing—beautifully presented and delicious. The meat was tender as well, and everyone loved it. We also enjoyed the water bar, the old-fashioned game arcade, and the souvenir shop! The bath was spacious and great, but there weren’t many handrails, so my mother seemed a little uneasy. Still, it felt wonderful. The Room was of course clean and very comfortable. We went to the pool area to take photos, and I thought it was a pleasant place for a walk. We would definitely like to stay again. Thank you very much.

Both the Room and the large public bath were very clean, and we had a comfortable stay. The food was also well seasoned. The 10-minute fireworks at Lake Suwa exceeded our expectations and became a wonderful memory. It was such a great Accommodation that we could hardly find anything to complain about. When we visit Lake Suwa again, we will definitely stay here again!

The view from the window of the renovated Room is like a painting. We thoroughly enjoyed the in-room bath in complete privacy. Dinner was just the right amount, and we also enjoyed the sea bream rice at the end. The Shuttle Service from Fukuyama Station was also very helpful for those traveling by Shinkansen. We would love to stay again in a different season.

I chose Taki no Ie to enjoy a slightly luxurious stay at Noboribetsu Onsen on the last day of my trip. After being shown to the entrance, you take off your shoes before stepping inside. Check-in is done while enjoying matcha in a sofa seating area, and all the corridors leading to the Room are covered with tatami mats. It was a pleasure to feel tatami again after so long. The view from the Room was calming, with plenty of greenery. I would have loved to see the garden, but since we were on the 4th floor, that wasn’t really possible. We enjoyed our meals while looking out over the garden, which was wonderful. It was also my first time having a gentleman—like a sommelier—assist us throughout our stay as our in-room attendant.

I stayed during Golden Week and thought it was a bit pricey even though the Room didn’t have an Onsen, but it exceeded my expectations in a great way! The rooftop Onsen had a wonderful view and was excellent. I usually don’t like buffet meals because the food can be mediocre and the atmosphere often feels unsettled, but this Hotel had a wide variety of options and everything was delicious, so I was very satisfied. I’d love to stay here again.

The breakfast and dinner were both very delicious. Everything from the live kitchen was truly excellent, no matter what I chose. The Onsen was also wonderful, and the rotating Onsen baths were especially great.

This time, on my first visit to Beppu during Golden Week, I stayed in a non-smoking twin Room under the Standard Plan. The hotel is conveniently located near Beppu Station, with easy access. I arrived early due to my flight schedule, and it was a great place to leave my luggage and go sightseeing. On top of that, our Room was upgraded to a family Room! The two of us enjoyed the luxury of using a four-person Room. Both the property and the Room were kept very clean, and we were able to relax after sightseeing and drinks. The next morning the weather was bad so we couldn’t see the sunrise, but we fully enjoyed the bath and even the after-bath services. I’d definitely like to stay here again on my next trip back to Oita.

Thanks to your call in advance letting us know there would be road closures due to a festival, we were able to arrive before the roads were closed. As a result, we enjoyed the festival and the fireworks, making our stay truly memorable. The staff’s attentiveness was outstanding, and the parking valet service in particular exceeded our expectations by far. There are not many places where great service alone makes you want to stay again, but we would definitely love to return. We also recommended it to our family after we got home. Just one note: since I don’t often sleep on futons, I felt the mattress was thin and the pillow was low.

Shiosai-tei features a luxurious large Onsen bath that makes the most of its prime seaside location, allowing me to relax to the fullest both physically and mentally. The meals were all excellent—fresh crab and locally sourced seafood in particular—and I was very satisfied. The staff were also consistently pleasant and welcoming. I would like to make time to visit again.
