Surely one of the best Onsen hotels in the area , very traditional Japanese hotel with authentic hot springs, breakfast offers myriad choices of foods. Traditional Japanese dinners were included prepared by chefs with excellent culinary skills. Both meals were included without hassles . I had a wonderful stay in the hotel and will be back again

$17xx for 1 night with pork hot pot is a bit of expensive. The toilet is looks very old style and the CS is asking me yen 3xxx for kid’s meal is unreasonable. My baby has 1 year old and we didn’t pay for it. I disappointed with the dinner but the breakfast is ok.

a bad choice at this hotel. Don't trust those pictures that posted online. Compare with the real condition. It is minus scores. Two nights staying, we both did not use our bathroom for showering. The hair dryer wire is covered full of black stain on. Everything looks so old and dusty. Our room rate was covered with bkft and dinner. Looks ok but not the quality. Only like is the hot spring. No more next time.

Hotel shows its age and badly needs an overhaul e.g. faded wood stains in the rooms and chipped paint all over ceiling of the indoor onsen. Dinner is more quantity than quality, breakfast very cafeteria styled. Overall service courteous in the usual Japanese way. Wifi very weak in the evening. Best part is the outdoor onsen. But it is a nice budget way to experience an onsen hotel.

Great value place to stay
Overall, was much better than its rather drab external appearance would indicate. Staff was very friendly and helpful, but none spoke English. Room was clean and comfortable, and unusually large. The best aspect of our stay was the (included) nightly dinners, which were delicious Japanese banquets - much more than we should have eaten! Breakfasts weren't so interesting, but quite adequate. Central location is ideal fo exploring the fascinating Ebino Plateau.

大型施設のホテル、バイキングの食事、行ってみると受付や従業員の方は外国人の方が多い...あまり期待していなかったのですが(東日本で言えば鬼怒川のホテルをイメージしていました)、いえ、とてもいいホテルでした。バイキングの食事も素晴しく、温泉も本当に良い。桜島が見えるロケーションも良く、霧島登山にも便利でした。素晴しい滞在となりました。関東の辺りのホテルとは同じ値段でも1ランク2ランク上の体験ができます。
