Highly recommend

Superb hotel in Aso. We were so lucky that the host upgraded us to the brand new corner room with amazing view. Room is very spacious, quiet, clean and modern. It’s a shame that we couldn’t do horse riding as it was pouring on the day we stayed.

Actually this is a really good and special place for stay if you wanted something different from traditional accomodation. Food provided is yummy and staff is very friendly and helpful. The negative point of this place is firstly parking is not convenience as our room is a bit far and there are stair to go down. Secondly we think that the property is a bit tired, need further improvement. WE really wish to see a new face on it. Thank you

人馬一体の爽快感

外乗を楽しむには最高のシチュエーションです。よく調教された馬達と共に新緑の地に足を踏み入れる爽快感は別世界でした。スタッフの皆さんもファミリアルで犬達までも人懐っこく楽しい時間を過ごせました。

登山のため連泊しました。 アクセス、ロケーションは申し分なく最高です。昼はレストランもやっているようですが食事は残念でした。 スタッフの方々は悪い印象はないですが説明不足が多く気になりました。 大浴場も朝は利用できません。

とても気持ちが良く、乗馬をして宿泊するのは最高の体験でした。ただ夏場とはいえ麓とは天気が異なるため、阿蘇市街は30度超えていても、ここは25度くらいと涼しく、夏場でもウインドブレーカー的なものは必須です。このような体験ができる施設はなかなかないのではないでしょうか。

1.離車站遠,需自駕才方便。 2.乘馬行程是很有特色,新的體驗。 3.窗外景色一片無際,因天氣不佳無法欣賞星空,是有遺憾。 4.晚餐普通,無特色。 5.房間設施略簡單,但尚屬乾淨。
