Beppu University Station × Highly rated Hotel·Ryokan

The service was outstanding. It was the best hospitality I have ever experienced at any Accommodation. The sashimi of Seki horse mackerel, Bungo beef, and local chicken were all delicious. I was able to relax in the open-air bath while gazing at the beautiful starry sky. I would definitely like to stay here again.

Thank you for taking care of us in the top-floor Room. The service, food, and Room were all wonderful. If we have the opportunity to travel to Oita again, we would love to stay with you again. Thank you very much.

My first time at Myoban Onsen. I’m excited to be able to stay at Okamotoya, which is highly rated in guidebooks. I was very satisfied with the milky-blue water. The Room was just the right size for one person and had a great view, and both dinner and breakfast were delicious. The dessert pudding and the orange juice at breakfast were especially appreciated since I don’t drink alcohol. Since this is a Multiple Night Stay, it really helped that they provided extra yukata and towels. Just one thing: at dinner on the first day, the rice and soup were a bit lukewarm (it was fine on the second day). Also, perhaps due to the season, the seating was quite close to other guests during meals, which made it a little hard to eat comfortably. Still, I’m so satisfied that I’d definitely like to stay again. Thank you very much.

Everything was spotless, and we had a very comfortable stay. The food was excellent—especially the sashimi, which was thick and delicious. It even included fugu sashimi, with my favorite skin served on the side, so I was completely satisfied. The bath was also thoroughly cleaned and truly pleasant to use. This time we couldn’t try the nearby Ryokan hot-spring tour, but we’d definitely like to do it next time.

Beppu for the first time in a year—and GAHAMA Terrace. Nothing to complain about; we had a very comfortable stay. I really do love this place. I also love the view from the maisonette—being at eye level with the sea is wonderful—but it might be better if the plants were trimmed a bit. I know they grow back quickly in summer, so it may be difficult, but from inside, having the ocean fill the entire window is simply perfect. We’ll visit again when it gets cooler. GAHAMA is amazing, and Beppu is amazing too.

I’ve stayed in many places, but this was the best. The Room was clean and well maintained, and the front desk staff were very polite and attentive. There are no meals provided, but they kindly recommended nearby restaurants. I definitely want to stay here again.

Above all, we were soothed by the Onsen, the meals, and the heartfelt hospitality of your staff. Thank you very much.

We truly enjoyed the delicious meals at both breakfast and dinner. The bath was also very comfortable. The ocean view from our Room and from the large public bath was especially beautiful and memorable. By chance, we were able to see fireworks, which delighted our granddaughter. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

The building is old, but it’s clean and has a nice feel. If the weather is clear, a walk along the seaside would be great. You can also use the rooftop open-air bath anytime during your stay. Breakfast was a good portion and very tasty. However, it seems the menu doesn’t change even for a Multiple Night Stay, so keep that in mind. There’s also a Royal Host next door, so you won’t have any trouble. The Room is spacious enough for the price, but the sofa is small, so it’s hard for two people to relax comfortably together. Staying at a luxury Ryokan and enjoying an upscale Hotel experience is nice too, but Beppu has been getting more lively lately—so I think it’s also fun to stay at a great-value Hotel like this one and enjoy nightlife around town. I’d like to drop by again sometime.

Despite my many requests, you handled everything very well. Thank you very much.

Staying in the detached room allowed us to relax without worrying too much about our dog’s barking disturbing others. We also finished all of our meals—they were delicious. We are also grateful to the staff for their sincere support during a late-night incident.

My first stay at Sorakan. The first thing I loved was the welcome drinks. From 2:00 PM to 4:30 PM, soft drinks, light sweets, and beer are all-you-can-drink. The Hotel is also very clean. The open-air Onsen bath was amazing too. The view is so relaxing. I also appreciated that there are smoking areas set up in several places. Sorakan’s dinner buffet was luxurious and delicious. For the all-you-can-drink options, you can even enjoy branded shochu and Dassai sake. With a short walk, you can also use Tanayu, and have fun at the pool as well. Not just Onsen—there’s also a game arcade, bowling, and karaoke to fully enjoy your time here. Just one thing... Even though it’s such a wonderful Hotel, the shampoo and conditioner weren’t great and left my hair dry and frizzy... It would be perfect if they provided better shampoo. Still, I’d like to stay at Sorakan again.

I stayed here with my mother, who is 90 years old. 1. All the staff were very kind, and we had a comfortable stay. 2. Dinner offered a wide variety of dishes, including beef grilled on a lava stone plate, sashimi, fugu sashimi, and fried shrimp—everything was excellent and very satisfying. 3. The bath was very spacious and we fully enjoyed the Onsen, but it would have been even better if there had been a rock seat suitable for half-body bathing. 4. The building and our Room had been renovated, and everything was well cleaned and maintained—very nice overall. 5. Overall: This is a Hotel I would like to stay at again.

Although check-in is set for later, I was able to leave my luggage with no problem. I relaxed with some tea at the café in front of the front desk, went sightseeing, then came back to check in. I had made a Reservation for a single Room, but they kindly upgraded me to a slightly larger Room, and thanks to that I had a comfortable two-night stay. The free-flowing Onsen soothed my body, and breakfast offered a good variety; there were also some menu changes from the first day, so I enjoyed it. It was my first time visiting Beppu to attend an event, and I would love to stay again if I have the chance.

This time, I knew my schedule early and made a Reservation using the early-bird discount, so I was able to stay at a very reasonable rate. On top of that, they even upgraded our Room—it was truly wonderful. The all-inclusive plan, the thoughtful touches throughout the property, and fun ideas like making your own parfait for dessert after meals were everywhere, and I found it impressive. If I had to mention a few points: the lounge had become more of a children’s play area and wasn’t very relaxing; although the floors are tatami-mat style, it was a bit hard to walk on and I wished there were slippers; and while the key is cute, I’m used to auto-lock doors so having to lock it manually felt like an extra step. Still, their hospitality was truly outstanding.

I’ve stayed at this Accommodation many times over the past few years! My favorite is the Room with a private pool, and I stayed in that one again this time. When I checked in and was shown to my Room, as soon as the door was opened, a housekeeping staff member (?) was inside working on something, with no particular apology… I was surprised and felt a bit disappointed at first…. It was also a little disappointing that some of the lights in the Room and by the pool were out. However, the wonderful Room and pool—and even the ocean—were so great that it made me forget about those things, and overall it was another excellent stay. There were plenty of towels too! The hair dryer was SALONIA, so I’d be happy if there were a higher-end dryer such as ReFa. For dinner, we ordered à la carte at Eitaro. Everything was delicious. The pasta and meat dishes were outstanding! And even though we ordered quite a lot, the food came quickly after ordering, which really helped us!! The abalone wasn’t salty, so we ate it with salt. I was truly happy that breakfast had lots of fruit—and it was delicious too! I also love the sauna in the large public bath; you can relax while listening to the sound of waves. Next time I made a Reservation for two nights at Gahama! I’m already looking forward to it. Thank you very much. I look forward to staying again.

Despite being in Beppu City, this Accommodation is wonderfully quiet. Because it’s a small Accommodation, we didn’t run into anyone at all. We were told the building is old, but it has been fully renovated—the Room and baths were outstanding. Truly lovely. The amenities are well stocked, and there’s also a coffee machine. All drinks in the refrigerator are free as well. If your Room doesn’t have an in-room bath, you can use one of the three private baths. They are not by Reservation—if one is available, you can use it. Personally, I recommend “Nadeshiko.” The changing area is stylish and really lifts your mood! I was able to relax and enjoy it with my husband without any worries. Meals are served in your Room, which is rare these days. Everything was brought at just the right timing. Every dish was carefully prepared and genuinely delicious. We couldn’t finish everything, so they packed the yellowtail and wild vegetable rice for a late-night snack. And checkout is at 11:00! We’re grateful we could stay until the very last minute. I’ve stayed at some fairly nice Accommodations in Yufuin as well, but this Accommodation felt like a much better value and was far more comfortable. I highly recommend it for couples, married couples, and families with small children.

The Room was spacious and lovely, and the meals were wonderful with thoughtful touches. The staff were friendly, and it made for an excellent stay. We had been looking forward to the open-air bath, but at night many small moths flew in and I couldn’t use it. I understand it can’t be helped in a forest setting, but it was disappointing. It’s not a place we can visit often, but it’s a Hotel we definitely want to return to. Thank you very much.

We chose the Umitamago Room. There were lots of plush toys in all sizes, and the kids were thrilled! They tucked a big walrus plush into one futon and slept next to mom. While drifting off, they said, “Let’s come again.” The changing area was spacious, with a large mirror and bright lighting—very easy to use. I used to think Hotel towels were limited to one bath towel and one face towel per person and not very absorbent, but here we had one bath towel and two face towels each, and they were nicely absorbent. Both the front desk staff and the dining staff were kind to our children—everyone was wonderful. Meals included dinner and breakfast buffets, and both were delicious! If I had to ask for one thing, it would be a small toothbrush for kids. Overall, we were very satisfied and would love to visit again!

An Accommodation I’d been looking forward to even before the trip! The Room felt luxurious yet relaxing, with tatami mats that made it especially comfortable. The welcome dango were also incredibly cute! Having a bath in the Room meant I could soak whenever I wanted—it felt wonderfully indulgent. On the second day, I planned to explore Oita from early morning, but I loved the Accommodation so much that I ended up staying until the very last minute before checkout. When I visit Oita again, I’d definitely love to come back.
