Quiet location just a short walk from the train station. Superb ryokan experience with modern amenities throughout. If you’re fortunate enough to get a room with a private onsen, you can enjoy all manner of luxury beyond the available public onsen facilities. A great option to spoil yourself, if even for a night or two.

Great Japanese style hotel. Convenient location from Fukuin station. Quiet and very friendly and helpful staff. Food is also very good and quite an impressive amount. One negative was chose this hotel since they have a sauna but is closed due to corona still. This was not mentioned on Expedia. At this point in time being closed due to coronavirus is a bit outdated and disappointing

The food and Onsen in the hotel may not be as better than as others in Aso area. But the hotel staff is really so nice. They asked me what kind of food is not good. I told my dad not used to sashimi and they change the dish to a rather big fish head which is my dad favourite. We enjoyed the hotel facilities much. The hotel room is spacious.
