We stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of four nights. Above all, this Accommodation is truly pet-friendly. We visited with both a dog and a cat, and they both seemed relaxed and happy. There were plenty of amenities for dogs and cats, plus facilities such as a dog run. We could stay with peace of mind, and all the staff clearly love animals, which made our time here even more special. The Japanese staff were wonderful as expected, and the international staff were also incredibly polite—so much so that we initially thought they were Japanese—always with warm smiles. It gave us the sense that the training and working environment here must be excellent. The staff deserve more than five stars. Meals are à la carte, so you can choose whatever you like each day in any amount you want. This was especially appreciated during our Multiple Night Stay, and everything was consistently above average in taste. They offer a great balance of both Japanese and Western dishes, so we never got bored. Every day was delicious. Alcohol at night at the bar, as well as drinks in the Room refrigerator, are included, which is very reassuring for those who enjoy drinking. In addition, 30 minutes of spa treatment per day was included; I even received a massage and felt truly healed. The Room was neither too large nor too small—just right for two people—and it was well designed and easy to use. The hot spring water left our skin smooth and glossy; it was excellent. Both the indoor bath and open-air bath are fed directly from the source (free-flowing), and we could adjust both volume and temperature using only the natural spring water. It’s pure luxury. These days many Hotels or Ryokan only allow smoking in designated areas, so being able to smoke on our private terrace attached to the Room is something smokers will really appreciate, especially if you want to have a drink on the terrace while enjoying a cigarette. Because the terrace is surrounded by high walls, our cat could also go for walks there safely. Cats tend to run off easily, so it’s rare to let them stroll freely—this was another great point. Our cat looked completely at ease. It was our first time visiting Kikuchi City. There are many wonderful places nearby including Kikuchi Gorge, and Aso is less than an hour away by car, making sightseeing very convenient. Since there is a university stable near this Accommodation, there may occasionally be a slight animal smell, but that isn’t an issue caused by this Accommodation itself. And since this is an Accommodation that pet lovers choose specifically because they travel with animals, I think it’s simply something not to worry about (it didn’t bother me). This is a fantastic Accommodation where you can truly relax with your pets. Thank you very much.

A well-balanced breakfast gave me the energy to head to work, and the large bath helped me unwind after a long day. Despite the clean Room and convenient location, the price is reasonable. There are no excessive amenities, but all necessary services are well provided, making my business trip comfortable. They also handled taxi arrangements with great care, and I felt it was a Hotel where I could stay with peace of mind. I was also satisfied with the user-friendly in-Room features such as a TV that shows how crowded the dining area and large public bath are, as well as an air purifier.

I stayed here for the first time, inviting two friends from out of town. I had heard great reviews from people who had used Yuya Suizen and was told it was worth visiting at least once. The staff’s hospitality was excellent, and the Room was clean and extremely comfortable. The hydrangeas in the lounge and throughout the property, along with the furnishings, were tasteful and beautiful. Breakfast was delicious, and we had a truly happy time! I’d love to come again with my family.

As last year, I stayed in the Castle Suite with my daughter. It’s a Room that any young child will absolutely love. It features two Kumamoto Castle-themed bunk beds, a slide, plenty of toys, Kumamon figures, an oversized TV, and a hinoki cypress bath. The refrigerator was stocked with complimentary drinks—both alcoholic and non-alcoholic—so while my child played, I could relax and fully enjoy some downtime.

This is a well-sized Hotel with a tasteful blend of Japanese and Western styles. The space was clean and comfortable, and I slept very well. There were no items like lotion or cleansing oil at the sink in the changing area by the bath, but most guests probably bring their own, so it should be fine. If anything, I appreciated that the area around the sink was not dirty. It was also nice that I didn’t need to bring towels from my Room. The flooring in the Room was a bit tough for me because I’m sensitive to cold, but it does help keep things clean. At check-in there was a lot of information to go over, and I got a little spaced out partway through and missed responding once. After that, they explained things more concisely, and at the end they smiled and said, “Thank you for your time.” Thank you for the pleasant service.

I was a bit confused about the parking, but they kindly explained it to me. There was a group staying as well, but they let us know in advance when the dining area would be busiest, which was helpful.

This was my first stay at Yulax, and it was even better than I imagined. First, the cold plunge. It’s properly cold, and above all it’s deep—being fully enveloped by the water feels incredible. Hitting the MADMAX button and getting drenched with a huge rush of water from head to toe is also amazing—I could do that again and again (laugh). The sauna itself is truly relaxing, and the aufguss at “THIS IS IT” especially stayed with me. The music, heat, and performance make it feel less like a sauna and more like live entertainment. That experience alone made the trip worth it. What unexpectedly left an impression was the other guests. I got the sense many were in their 20s to 40s, and everyone had excellent manners. It felt like there are many people who love saunas and genuinely care about this place. It’s a comfortable space not only because of the Facility, but also because of the people who gather here. Including that atmosphere, I couldn’t help but feel that what the owner wanted to create—their vision—has truly taken shape. The relaxation areas are well equipped too, so you can unwind for hours after your sauna session. The food was very satisfying; in particular, the mapo tofu was generous in portion size and genuinely delicious. Even aside from eating after a sauna, it’s something I’d want to have again. The parking lot is spacious as well, which makes it easy to visit by car. Yulax wasn’t just a place to use a sauna. It’s somewhere you can step away from work and everyday worries, clear your mind, and spend time for yourself. By the time I left, even my mood felt lighter. For me, it was “a place where I can find myself again.” I definitely want to come back.

The service was excellent with smiles. The restaurant on-site was particularly impressive, with a chef who seemed like a top-notch professional, and I truly enjoyed a delicious dinner even by myself.

Reliable AZ With prices rising these days, this quality at this price! 6 nights in August 3 nights in September. Always reliable, no matter when I stay at AZ. In October, I’m going to the newly opened AZ Hotel in Okayama Prefecture (as posted inside the AZ Hotel) to have breakfast. The hot weather continues—wishing all staff good health and take care of yourselves.

It has already become a brand (at least for me). Reasonable price. This price includes a breakfast buffet. The location, like other AZ facilities, is conveniently situated in key areas. Necessary facilities are, of course, well-equipped.

I chose this property because it is close to the airport and conveniently located. Due to time constraints, I was unable to use the dining options, but the Room was more spacious than I expected and had a table, making it comfortable to spend time in. The parking lot is also large and easy to park in.

I was originally planning to stay late at night after the concert, but it was postponed due to the earthquake. Since I was able to check in earlier than planned, I really enjoyed the bath, relaxation room, and more. I also had dinner at the restaurant on the 3rd floor—very tasty and generously portioned. I booked a body scrub as well and felt completely refreshed. Everyone was very pleasant and helpful, from the front desk staff at check-in to the restaurant team and the body scrub staff. At the moment, it seems Reservations can’t be made online due to the aftermath of the earthquake, but I’d love to visit again once things settle down. Thank you for a wonderful summer memory.

The large public bath was spacious and clean. There were three types of saunas, and the löyly was excellent.
