Stesen Minamata × Hotel·penginapan gaya Jepun dengan penilaian tinggi untuk bilik dan kemudahan

Every few years I travel to Minamata, where my friend’s family lives, and I stay here each time. We came as a large group, but since we had faxed the arrival cards in advance, check-in was smooth. Some of our group are smokers, so this is an important point when choosing a Hotel. These days some Hotels provide smoking areas outside, but we prefer to relax in our Room, so having smoking Rooms available is greatly appreciated. It’s also nice that breakfast is included. We stayed for two nights this time as well; on the first day we left early in the morning for golf and couldn’t make it to breakfast time, which was disappointing, but on the second day we were able to enjoy it at a relaxed pace. We rented a car and used the parking lot—it was very affordable and really helpful. It rained and we borrowed umbrellas; even though we were a large group, they kindly lent us enough umbrellas for everyone, which we truly appreciated. The Room was clean and well organized, so we had a comfortable stay. It was also nice that there is a service benefit when you decline cleaning during a Multiple Night Stay. I’d like to stay here again when I visit Minamata.

Last year, my 101-year-old mother-in-law passed away, and I invited my elder sister and niece, who have been feeling a bit lonely since then, to stay here. We celebrated my sister's birthday during dinner with a toast, and the staff surprised us with a Happy Birthday song and cake. Seeing my sister's happy smile made me feel so glad I chose this Hotel. Although we couldn't see the sunset this time due to rain (unlike last time), we will definitely come back again!

It was an accommodation beyond expectations. A luxurious space with the exclusivity of one group per day and a whole building rental, featuring a spacious room enhanced by exposed beam ceilings, and surrounded by Japanese-modern furniture, lighting, and decor. Both dinner and breakfast were not only delicious in taste but also visually stunning. We enjoyed these refined dishes on a solid single-slab wooden table. I wonder how many times I said "delicious" or "beautiful." The conversation with the owner-chef, who has a unique background, was incredibly interesting and enjoyable. Yunotsuru Onsen won first place again this year in the Hidden Hot Springs & Famous Hot Springs category for the Kyushu-Okinawa area at the Onsen General Election 2025. The hot spring water at Tsurunoya felt like a silky beauty serum that women would love. Moreover, it is luxuriously offered as free-flowing natural hot spring water in a cypress bathtub for you to enjoy. Additionally, guests can also bathe for free at nearby partnered accommodations' onsens—a delightful perk for onsen enthusiasts. Without TVs or clocks to distract you from daily life’s hustle and bustle, this stay offered an extraordinary escape into tranquility—making it an incredibly luxurious two-day-one-night experience in every sense. I hope to visit again soon!

We stayed here as two couples in our 70s. The Room and Facility were very clean and well maintained. The service was also good, but the Onsen was especially wonderful. The water was excellent, and we enjoyed it many times. We would love to stay again.
