Eichi Station × Ranking Of Accommodation With Signature Seafood CuisineHighly rated for rooms and amenities at Hotel·Ryokan

I was able to spend a truly luxurious time surrounded by peaceful, lush greenery. The hospitality was outstanding. The Room and the meals—everything exceeded my expectations. I’d love to visit again in a different season.

We stayed for two nights and three days during the Silver Week holidays in September, traveling from Aichi, and had a wonderful time. Before our stay, we contacted Yufuin Hana-yu by email to confirm details, and just before departure we also received a phone call with further confirmation. Thanks to this, my mother and our whole family were very satisfied. We especially appreciated the thoughtful consideration given to our meals and the in-room amenities. Although the weather was not ideal, the staff’s cheerful and considerate service made our stay very pleasant. We would love to stay again if we have another opportunity.

We stayed here on a trip with my parents-in-law. Our top priority was finding an Accommodation that could provide a low-sodium diet for my father-in-law, who became seriously ill last year. If possible, we also wanted to bring our dog along, since my parents-in-law adore him. Those two points are why we chose this Accommodation. From the parking guidance to our Room, we were warmly welcomed by staff with wonderful smiles. They also prepared chairs for my elderly father and even a chair for the in-room Onsen bath, so within 30 minutes of arriving at the Ryokan we already felt truly happy. What impressed us most was the meals. We were told they would “accommodate as much as possible,” and they really did—removing mentaiko, providing low-sodium soy sauce, and preparing dishes without salt or pepper. Thanks to all these adjustments, my father was able to finish almost everything. Since his illness, even eating out requires constant caution, so being able to enjoy a meal together at the Ryokan made us genuinely grateful. Some Reviews mentioned there were no dog amenities, but there were lint rollers and paw wipes available, so we had no issues. The usual overnight set you’d bring when leaving a dog at a pet hotel (pee pad tray, food bowl, water bowl) was enough. The in-room Onsen bath was very spacious, with perfect water temperature—I used it many times. All of the staff at this Accommodation were kind and pleasant throughout our stay; it was truly two days of happiness. We would love to visit again!

We stayed in a detached annex. The website said “indoor bath type,” and there were no photos, so we expected a regular bath—but it pleasantly exceeded our expectations. I really think you should post photos of that bath on the website! We originally planned to use the open-air bath, but ended up using the in-room bath the whole time (lol). Also, I believe it was fully booked, yet while we were in our Room we couldn’t hear any voices or noise from other guests at all. You can definitely feel its age, but as a Ryokan it had everything we were looking for. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious and very generous in portion size. In particular, I made a Reservation for the half steamed chicken at dinner and it was quite an experience (in a good way). From the website photos I (wrongly) imagined a bone-in thigh, but it truly was “half.” It was very tasty, but you’ll need to save room in your stomach (especially women). When we asked, they even prepared the leftover steamed chicken so we could eat it in our Room! All staff members were wonderful—everyone was pleasant and welcoming. This quiet mountain Ryokan fulfilled everything I wanted: simply enjoying the Onsen and great food. Thank you very much.

Oguni Auberge Waita-kan The Onsen was amazing, and the game cuisine was delicious. We’ll be back!

This was my first stay in Yufuin Onsen. A week before my stay, there had been heavy rain and I was told train services were suspended, but the staff’s phone support left a very positive impression. I chose a detached Accommodation, and the Room was clean and the Onsen was excellent. There was something like insect repellent spray in the Room, so I wondered if there might be a lot of bugs, but it didn’t bother me at all. Both dinner and breakfast were very generous portions and simply delicious. The amount is more than I can finish, so I feel bad leaving food; I would appreciate it if you could offer a smaller-portion Plan as well.

The place was exceptionally clean and very comfortable! I’d love to stay here again.

The villa was more spacious and cleaner than we expected—almost too luxurious for just the two of us. The large open-air bath outside was wonderfully relaxing, and we enjoyed the Onsen while feeling close to nature, soaking many times. Mt. Yufu looked beautiful right in front of us, and the indoor Onsen bath was also great. We only had breakfast, but it was prepared in the refrigerator, so we could eat at whatever time we liked in the kitchen, and it was delicious. We’d love to stay again in a different season.

We stayed for one night from July 4 to 5. The building looks quite old from the outside, but the interior has been beautifully renovated, and we had a very comfortable stay. My spouse and I travel every year, and this place was a real find. Every dish was delicious, and there was so much food that we were completely full—very satisfying. Above all, the hostess’s personality made the biggest impression. Her warm, pleasant hospitality made our stay truly enjoyable. We would love to return if we have the chance again. Thank you very much for everything.

Run by a warm and thoughtful couple. The entire property is spotless, and we were truly impressed by the carefully prepared breakfast and dinner. An outstanding Accommodation in every way.

This was our fourth stay. Ever since our first visit, we’ve been impressed by the delicious meals, the relaxing Onsen, and the wonderful hospitality of the proprietress and all the staff—an Accommodation that always makes us want to return. It also has a charming, nostalgic atmosphere, and the Room was spotless and beautifully maintained—nothing to complain about. We’re planning to visit again next year, and we’re already looking forward to it.

This is my third visit. The meals are delicious, and since there is a bath in the Room, you can enjoy it 24 hours a day. The resident dog, Luna, is also very calm and adorable! It’s a Ryokan I truly love—quiet, relaxing, and an extraordinary space where you can unwind. There’s also a dog run where they can run around freely, so the dogs are thrilled! Next time, we’re talking about coming back for a Multiple Night Stay with my husband.

This was our fourth stay. From the manager to every staff member, everyone is so warm and welcoming that it always makes us want to come back again and again. And above all, the Onsen is outstanding—once you experience its silky-smooth water, you’ll never forget it. I had really wanted to bring my parents here, so I’m very happy we were able to visit together this time. Thank you again for the delicious meals and heartfelt hospitality.

Easily accessible from Makinoto Pass, this is a great hotel with both meals and an onsen. Dinner offers a wide variety of dishes that will leave you full. Breakfast is also delicious. The onsen includes family baths with open-air options as well as indoor baths, providing a wonderful experience. While the building and rooms may show some age, it is still a highly recommended accommodation.

Although the Accommodation is run by a small team, thank you for providing more than adequate hospitality. I was surprised to see a Nepalese staff member offering heartfelt, Japanese-style service. I’m not sure whether it comes down to personal skill or thorough training, but seeing how they supported the other international staff made me feel their ability is exceptional. The service side is already very strong, so if you continue making consistent investments in your Facility, I believe you will also help boost the overall appeal of Amagase Onsen. If I have another opportunity, I would be happy to stay in Ukiha again.

Dinner offered a wide variety of dishes, all very delicious, and we were completely satisfied. I only wished the tempura had been served freshly made, but it was still tasty and satisfying. Breakfast was a healthy Japanese-style meal with many small side dishes that went perfectly with rice, and I was happy to be able to have three extra bowls of rice. The private bath was a bit hot, but we could adjust the temperature. The large public bath was also clean, and we were able to relax in the Onsen. The waterfall shower is right in front of you, and they even provide coins for it—excellent. The balance of food, price, and overall satisfaction was very good. We also received discounted ski tickets, which made our ski experience great value as well. They are flexible with breakfast times for hikers and can accommodate bento lunches too, which I found very convenient. I would like to stay again. Thank you very much.
