  Great experience, met a senior gentleman from local during hot-spring and he said this one is the most effective one and I felt the same. Highly recommended! Food is also well presented and tasted nice.

  The property sits near a river and waterfall which creates a nice ambience. They only have 9 villas available and most are seperated from each other and relatively private. Public onsen is nice however the changing area was lacking space and amenities compared to other places I have visited. In the evening, the pathways around the villas are strongly lit which meant you had to use all of the blinds to make the bedrooms darker. Also, the bedrooms should face the river rather than the entrance to next door which meant it was more noisy when people returned to their villa or walked on the path.

  Turn off your smartphone and keep up with sound of nature. - room : room condition was v good. Obv it is an old accommodation, so then you cannot expect brand new polished mint condition. I came here to enjoy old and traditional vibe and it was just like that. My room had two rooms. One with western styled beds with mattress and another with Japanese style futon beds. Both were very comfy. There is tea set, so you can have a peaceful team time with your company. - Hot springs : not a huge ones. Small to mid sized open air public and private hot springs bath. Both were great and temperature was right on point. There is salt scrub ready. Please use it. That is wonderful. - Food : yum yum yum. My family had a dinner and breakfast in a room. Two mid aged women served us with a great manner. They were explaining the menu in Japanese however we didn’t have that much difficulty to understand. - Service : super well mannered and kind staff. Majority of them were not good at speaking other languages such as English. However they were not afraid to communicate with guests, using some kinds of app like Google translator. There is pickup/dropoff service. Send the hotel msg about it, hotel staff will drive and pick you up. - Location : 3 stars doesn’t mean ‘so so’. It’s not close to either of train and bus stations. Which means that it will be easy to go somewhere neither. You gotta walk a while to get close to a bus stop. I think this location has pros and cons. It’s good to be in a nature, focusing about the experience. * Thank you so so much for your great service. I would like to come back here again.

  If you’re non-Japanese and looking to experience an upscale ryokan, you probably can’t get a better first time than this! The staff were exceptionally polite and tolerant of our clueless American ways, and the proprietor speaks English reasonably well — don’t be shy about asking for transport to/from the train station (he’ll likely reach out by email if you book online through a third party service). We got a room with our own gorgeous, private open-air tub (great perk if you’re still acclimating to the idea of bathing naked with strangers) and tried out the bookable family use tub, as well. Some things to note for other foreign travelers: this onsen runs hot (if you’re familiar, think slightly cooler than the hottest pool at Harbin Hot Springs in California). Traditional Japanese room means no bedrooms — you’ll be sleeping on Japanese mattresses on the floor. Lastly, the food is excellent but also very traditional (think fish and rice for breakfast), so don’t expect any compromises for the Western palate. All that said, the experience is a must. Thank you for the amazing stay, Beppu Showaen!
