::It was our first ryokan stay and everything about Nihon no Ashitaba was PERFECT. Although I have studied a little about the ryokan and asked many questions upon reservation, they were kind and prompt to reply. The room(house) we stayed in for 2 nights was luxurious and the room had everything we had hoped for in traditional Japanese ryokan. The garden, outdoor and indoor onsen, living room, tatami room, bedding and so on. Dinner and breakfast were served thoughtfully and every dish was exquisite. Also the menu changed every day. The male server(possibly manager) - whom I forgot his name - was so kind and professional, made our dining experience far more special and enjoyable. He recommended us his favorite sake and we loved it so much. Bar Barolo was whole other experience that we didn't expect and it was a good one. Wine, whiskey, cocktail and cigar, even bar it self, all amazing. We were lucky to have a bartender of our nationality on the first day and communicated with the owner of the bar via 'google translate' on the second day, the small talk was very enjoyable on both days. All in all, our first ryokan experience became the best one and would love to stay again, hopefully a day or two longer next time.

::Our experience at this Japanese hotel was nothing short of extraordinary. The harmonious blend of majestic accommodations, rejuvenating hot spring oasis, and the impeccable service from the staff, including the exemplary Mika Tsubone, created a truly unforgettable stay that embodied the pinnacle of Japanese hospitality. This review is a testament to the sublime nature of our experience, and we are confident it will inspire others to discover the wonders of this remarkable establishment.

::Nihon no Ashitaba made my family's onsen trip exceptionally satisfying. I received pick-up service from Yufuin Station and stayed for two nights. The next day, they even provided pick-up service for our lunch outing, making my trip to the village comfortable. My mom and I were more than satisfied with the two breakfasts and two dinners, each with different menus. Located amidst beautiful natural scenery, this ryokan was the perfect place for enjoying onsen and relaxation. Above all, the kindness and thoughtful care of the staff are the most memorable aspects of Nihon no Ashitaba. I would love to visit again with my family in different seasons.

::Stayed here for the New Year’s and it was an amazing experience! The staff were all so thoughtful and kind and the service was impeccable. Each of the baths were lovely as well, especially the main outdoor one and the bamboo one. All of the changing areas had a little fridge with water and milk which I thought was a nice touch. Every bite of the food was amazing and the New Years breakfast on the 1st was the best way to start the year! One of the most gorgeous ryokans I’ve ever visited and I hope to come again one day.

::As we arrived and got out of the car, we already smelled the nice wood burning scent. The front reception was neatly decorated and soft music was played. Brought us to complete zen immediately. We were arranged to stay at the room Kan. Although the room was not large, but it has its characteristics just like other larger rooms. The 5 small private onsens were cozy and nicely designed. The big private onsen overlooking the mountain was the greatest. Be prepared for wow, wow, wow and wows as you are observing the details of the resort. Food at the resort were amazing. Dinner was food made with local produces. Breakfast was also served with plenty tasty and good choices food. All staff were friendly and helpful. Our main serve person Fujita-sen was so friendly and helpful. With this resort, I have to say it’s the overall experience that is so unique. So many wow factors that I would definitely go back. The hotel offers very high value for money that I would recommend booking.
