I really enjoyed my stay at Yufuin Yamaboshi. I arrived a couple hours before check-in time but was able to leave my luggage at the lobby so I could explore the area. My luggage was sent to my room when i returned. The room was very big and spacious and I enjoyed the experience of a tatami room. The view from my window was also gorgeous. There is a washroom in the room, but no shower/bath. The baths/shower/onsens are located in a small building outside of the main block and are separated by gender. I really enjoyed taking baths in the onsen, especially as there was both an indoor and outdoor bath area. The couple running the place are also very hospitable. Overall I really recommend this place if you're staying the night in Yufuin.

Good stay

Good stay with basic onsen. Indoor private onsen is suitable only for 2, outdoor public onsen is bigger. The onsen overall could use some refurbishing, but gets the job done. Room was good size for 2. Property seems on the older side, but clean and quiet. Great location, across from B-Speak bakery and nearby the main tourist street in Yufuin. Walking distance to Yufuin station, about 10 minutes. Excellent value.

舒適

酒店舒服,溫泉舒適,房夠整潔。服務態度良好。職員友善樂於助人。 但價錢貴一點。 以由布院其他酒店價錢比較嚟說算平。 但與別府價錢比較算貴。別府酒店平靚正。

這是一間看似簡單,但用心在細節,有濃厚人情味的旅館。 服務:店主友善穩重,殷勤滿足住客需要,我們check out時多謝他的款待,他更主動為我和太太在門口拍照,可惜我們沒有和他合照。 大堂和房間:雖沒有酒店的格調,但佈局舒適清雅,打掃清潔,房間的床褥和枕頭都舒適,給我一個睡得非常好的晚上。 溫泉:提供室外及室內公共溫泉,室內溫泉溫度比室外的熱;也有一個家族風呂,10:30pm前可供住客免費預約使用。 早餐:非常美味,看之前的評論說是店主太太下廚,我沒法證實,但進餐空間舒適,食材新鮮,味道可口。 位置:在由布見通上,距離火車站約12分鐘步程,對面就是湯之坪街道的入口,這位置在行程上可以具策略性作用。雖然旅館出面就是大街,但入住期間沒有被車聲騷擾。 這旅館提供高級溫泉酒店以外的選擇,雖然看似平價簡單,但灌注了店主的心思,用心經營,具人情味的服務,令住客有舒適的感覺。

합리적인 가격으로 료칸을 경험할 수 있었습니다. 호텔 온천이 뱃푸에서 유명하다는 온천들과 비교할 때 흠잡을 곳이 별로 없는 것 같습니다. 주인이 아주 친절하며 정성이 담긴 조식을 제공합니다. 호텔이 유후인 메인 거리에 접해 있어 주변 관광하기가 편리합니다.
