Yufuin Akarinoyado Reviews

The hotel is slightly over 1km from Kirin Lake and the shopping lane but it offers free bikes for use by guests and cycling to the attractions is a breeze from the hotel. In addition, the hotel offers booking for three of their onsen amenities - open air, semi open air and we xtra hot osen. Guest can book the preferred slot at one of the onsen location and by about 8pm, the hotel will allow guests to book any additional slots at any of their onsens. We managed to have slots for all three of the onsens, each was well maintained and provides you to have privacy of quiet onsens. There is a hotel lounge where you can have free flow of cold and old drinks too...

The cat manager is very cute and friendly☺️ The hotel has free hot springs to soak in. Private time slots can be reserved at check in. There are 3 hot springs But the inn does not have an elevator

I booked Yufuin Akarinoyado in Yufuin, Oita Prefecture, Kyushu on Trip.com to check in on October 23. The room I booked has two single beds and a bunk bed. , I only registered myself when I booked online. In fact, I had a friend staying at the hotel. When I arrived at the hotel, I had to add ￥3,000 to let my friend check in. This is really unreasonable! There is no toilet in the room, and there is no water for washing hands, drinking, or boiling water. We have to use a shared toilet. I live on the third floor and there is no elevator. To drink water, I have to walk from the third floor to the lounge on the basement floor every time. I have to urinate at night. It's very annoying to have to walk to the hotel's public restroom outside the room!

I knew there was no toilet in the room when I booked. I didn't expect that there was no place to wash hands in the public toilet on the third floor!!! The faucet on the toilet tank didn't produce water! It was not repaired. I couldn't even wash my hands after using the toilet!!! To wash my hands, I had to run to other places to find a faucet. I can't stand it! The card for making the bed said that I had to make a mat first, but where was the mat? There was no mat... It was really a very sloppy country hotel. The soup was OK. Yufuin was only busy on one old street, and Kinlin Lake was not as big as Ginchu Lake in Changfeng Park. It was quite strenuous to drag the luggage on the bumpy country roads. It's not worth staying for one night, so you can avoid it. Those who like the countryside can say it differently.

A very satisfying stay, the hot spring experience is great, the scenery is beautiful, you can also play with cats and ride bicycles, and it is very close to the JR station. Recommended!

The hotel has an excellent location and provides free parking spaces and free bicycles. The hot spring experience is very good, 10 points recommended

I thought it was self-service and no one was there. I didn't expect that there was someone to greet you at check-in. Someone told you the precautions. I thought the hotel was old, so I was prepared for it to be dirty. Fortunately, it was very clean. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby. It is very close to the JR station. I rented a private hot spring. I agreed with the front desk and registered. I can soak in it at will. It is quite clean. If possible, it is better to bring a disposable quilt cover. There are still some places that are not covered by their quilt cover. There are not many sockets, so you need to bring a multi-plug one. The quilt is based on the number of guests. Small disposable cups are given. Remember to buy some at the supermarket.

This station has a good hot spring and beautiful scenery in the morning

The rooms are spacious and clean, the environment is good, the hot springs are comfortable, and the hospitality is warm. It is a very suitable hotel for tourism.

It's close to Yufuin Bus Terminal. It's a 5-minute walk with a carrier. Early check-in is not possible, but you can leave your luggage next to the front desk on the 1st floor. We were assigned a room on the 3rd floor, and there are places where you can use a microwave and drinking water, and a steam room with a refrigerator on the 3rd and 2nd floors, respectively. There are also public restrooms on each floor. We paid a separate hot spring usage tax of 250 yen per person and made a reservation and used it. You can use the hot spring once per night, and I wanted to make a reservation for the next morning when I checked in, but they didn't do it well. They said that you can only make a second reservation if everyone else checked in and made a reservation. We made a reservation for the hot spring late in the evening the next morning. However, I think we could have used it even without a reservation. There were no people who had made reservations for the hot spring in the morning. Since we reserved a large room, it was spacious and comfortable. The mountain view was also nice. Reserving the hot spring was easy and convenient. However, it was a bit burdensome to go up the stairs with our carrier to the 3rd floor room ^^;; We had a great time and rested well.

The hotel is in a good location. It's just a few minutes' walk to Yufuin Station Street, which is convenient for shopping and eating. The disadvantage is that the hot spring water in this hotel is not too hot. It may be uncomfortable to soak in the hot spring in winter.

It's a homestay with very average facilities. The hot spring water is so hot that it can't be used at all

Overall it's OK, it's clean, and it's spacious enough for children. Most hotels in Japan have very small rooms, but this one is big enough, at least it doesn't feel crowded.

I would like to comment on this hotel again. No matter from the sanitary facilities, environment or service, it is impeccable. It looks simple but has everything it should have. The cleanliness is 100. It is a typical Japanese hot spring hotel. In this not cheap town, this hotel is a little more expensive on weekends. It is only 500-600 meters away on weekdays. It is 5 minutes away from the station and convenient for travel. Quiet and comfortable! The proprietress is gentle and abides by the rules + 100 points. Highlights: Japanese style, clean, thoughtful, free bicycles and cats
