This Ryokan is great value for money, in a traditional wooden building with public baths, not far from the central station with easy access to the subway. It has a little Japanese courtyard in the middle. We had a large tatami mat room with futons on sleep on. The staff were friendly and helpful. It was clean, comfy and safe,... More

I only stayed one night here but wished i had stayed more. Its location is central and walking distance from the Jr station so next time i visit, i will use it as a base to see the neigbourhing prefectures. The room is spotless, big, well apointed and comes in autumn with a kotatsu under the table (i loved this).... More

Traditional Japanese-style ryokan. Take off your shoes when you enter and put on the slippers. Big, long creaky hallways, but clean and comfy. Very friendly owner and night manager - both speak a little bit of English. ROOM. Stayed in one of the family rooms. Very roomy. Air conditioning, television with a dozen or so Japanese channels, mini-fridge, yukata robes.... More

As you walk around the place the floors creak but apart from that it is on a quiet street and you have the peaceful garden to look out on. The rooms all share communal sinks, showers and... More

We stayed there just for one night and we were sorry to leave at the next morning. It was very nice with very friendly and helpful staff. The rooms were as we've expected a traditional ryokan with traditional furniture in it. Sitting on the floor is also expected of any guest. Don't expect a western-style bed so you've to build...

We had never stayed in a traditional Japanese inn before, so weren't really sure what to expect. What we got was a quaint old building (think heritage listed, 100+ years old) built around a lovely little japanese garden. Most of the rooms are on the first floor, while the kitchen, bathrooms and common areas are on the bottom floor (there... More

The location is perfect: close to the Railway st. and the Wooden Budda. Easy to get to the Canal City. The building looks very traditional and historical. When we were checking out, we decided to come back in a couple of days after visit to Beppu. There were also other guests who were so satisfied that they were trying to... More
