Hotel berhampiran Kawashimo Shrine, Hita

Hotel is at convenient location near train station, bus waiting area and big supermarket. You can take the bus to Fukuoka airport and other places from the bus waiting area. Hotel room is not very big. The breakfast is simple but filling.

酒店的員工大家都很有禮貌，每次回來都會迎接，讓人感覺很溫暖，設施和房間都是新的，住得很舒服，是自駕遊去別府和熊本的首選中途站，而且旁邊的公路休息站是連續八年排第一的，日用超市採購很適合。我們渡過了三天愉快的假期感謝萬豪萬楓

This is my first time onsen experience in Japan. The staff was nice and taught me how to use the hot spring. The building is old yet clean and comfortable. The food is amazing. The hot spring is special. It was a great experience.

今回はコロナ禍ということもあり内風呂温泉付きで探してちょっと奮発してここに決めました。周辺は寂れてしまっていますがそこがまたいい感じがというか落ち着くというか…。館内も変に上品すぎず落ち着く感じでした。ずっと居たいと思わせる雰囲気。本当にずっとは無理でしょうけど、でもそんな感じにさせられると思います。毎日のストレスをここで和らげる場所としては大変気に入りました。オフシーズンというのも要因だったのかもしれませんが。朝夕ご飯の時間が決まっていたのですが、そこは仕方がないのでしょう。うちには量が多いな～という感じでしたので次は１つランクを落とし、夕食のみ（あったかな？）の部屋で３泊４泊くらいしたいです。朝ごはんは前日にちょっと離れたコンビニで購入して、昼はちょっと離れた道の駅が２か所あるので簡単なお弁当で良いかな～。お昼ご飯を済ませたら帰って温泉。夕食前に温泉。寝る前に温泉。朝起きて温泉…。ちょっと遠出してあわしま堂の直売所で買い物。

お部屋は古かったですけど、お風呂も柔らかくてったですし、お料理は全て出来立てで、熱くてとても美味しかったです。 又是非行きたいです、

The minute you walk in, you relinquish your shoes. Everywhere is tatami and so we walk in our socks or indoor shoes, an immediate plus and relaxing moment. Our room was called The Annex. It is apart from the hotel. The Annex is Japanese with tatami and western beds, very comfortable. When we approached the front door, the views off the private garden were gorgeously dramatic mountain cliffs and there are views of other mountains and the stream from the other side of The Annex as well. Spacious and open and extremely comfortable. While many rooms come with a private dining room in the restaurant, the private eating room associated with the Annex also has another private garden with views of the mountains. A small note: All liquids in the frig are complimentary, nice touch! The service was excellent, well trained. The food was delicious even though we have many dietary limits - like no meat, pork, heavy oils. They accommodated our restrictions with delicious, fresh fish and vegetables and fruit. The onsens, even though public access as well, were clean and designed beautifully. We've been to many ryokans this year, mainly in Kyushu since we live here. This onsen had the most beautiful facilities - and the views were drop dead gorgeous. My jaw literally dropped when I saw the view from the onsen with the lounge chairs in the steaming water - and what an amazing onsen that was!!! After much thought, the only downside is the outdoor tub in the Annex, which is really not an onsen since it used chlorinated water and the two of us had to squeeze in. Having said that, we already booked our next stay in the spring and cannot wait to return.

GWに娘の誕生祝で利用いたしました。 まずお料理。 大人用のお料理（会席）は器も大変素晴らしく、目でも楽しませていただきました。 子ども用の食事もとても豪華で、特に朝食のパンケーキセットはうれしいサプライズでした。 また、お風呂も源泉かけ流しで熱いお湯をたっぷりと楽しめる贅沢なお風呂でした。 露天風呂、内湯、たくさん種類があり、朝早くから夜遅い時間まで利用できるので 何度も入りました。 お部屋にある露天風呂もとても心地よく、久しぶりに家族でのんびり、贅沢な時間を過ごせました。 お誕生祝のサプライズケーキも事前にご相談させていただき、当日は心のこもったおもてなしをしていただいたので娘も大変喜んでおりました。 何度でも帰りたくなるお宿だと思います。 ぜひまた利用したいです。

The experience was absolutely amazing.💕The price is very inexpensive for everything that are included in your stay. The breakfast and dinner were delicious there was a lot of food and it was very traditional. As we came for our birthdays the staff gave us presents. The Onsens both interior and outdoors were so relaxing and beautiful.♨️ This staff is so caring, do not hesitate to ask for help if you’re having trouble wearing your Yukata properly. I highly recommend going to this place, you really won’t regret it. By far the best place I stayed at during our one month trip to Japan🇯🇵👍 Thank you so much for receeving uf❤️ Love from France🇫🇷

Absolutely understated hotel style onsen resort with fully renovated facilities, decently sized rooms, clean onsen springs and most important of all, nice and sociable hotel staff with pleasant smiles. Bath tub with gorgeous mountain view will surely give you an unforgettable memory and the balcony with greenery mountain will give the tranquility and beauty of nature. Buffet style breakfast and dinner served with ample choices of delicious and quality foods. The ice cream is a must try! Last but not least, the relaxation room is full of fun for you to regain balance of body and mind after the taste of different onsen. A walk to the nearby riverside is a good day time activity! We will come again.

We found a good deal on the web site, which included discounts for having proof of vaccines, plus coupons totaling ¥8,000. I think the coupons were part of the ”Go To Travel” campaign. These coupons could only be used in Oita prefecture, by the next day. The hotel has a grand, luxurious appearance and feel, but also feels dated. After check-in, we took the shuttle bus to the outside onsen (about 5 minutes away). This was included in the price (I am not sure if it is actually owned by the hotel. There is a fee for people who are not staying at the hotel). This onsen was glorious! All the baths are outside, surrounded by trees and nature. The only caveat is that there were many stairs going down to the onsen. I did not expect that at all, and it was not easy on my knees (no problem for my partner). The other onsen in the hotel (there were two) also involved walking (it is as large hotel), and some stairs too. The floors in the onsen seemed more slippery than I remember any other onsen I have visited before. Dinner was buffet style. Due to COVID restrictions, we had to get our temperature checked, and wear plastic gloves while serving ourselves (there was a box at the table, and a container for disposal of them). The seating was partitioned, and it was very comfortable. Even though it was a buffet, there were 3 choices for seating: 5:00 pm, 6:30 pm and 8:00 pm, with a 90 minute limit. The food was good, but my partner had to stand in line at a station for freshly prepared meat for 30 minutes. Breakfast was served in the same place as dinner. We got a lower-priced deal, and our room was on the 1st floor. The hallway was a little dark compared to the other floors (which we had to access for the front desk/entrance to the hotel and to get to the dining area and the onsen). To me, there was a musty smell that my partner did not notice. The place is older, and it is right next to the river, and it was the middle of Japanese (humid) summer, and I assume not all the rooms are like this. There was a can of roach spray in the closet (which thankful we did not need!), and requests not to open the windows to prevent bugs from getting in the room. The sound and site of the river outside the window was wonderful. The beds (two twin beds) were comfortable and we got a good night's sleep. It was my partner's 50th birthday, so we mentioned this to see if they had any thing special (even for an extra charge). They gave a card and a plastic rose (I think the rose was for the birthday), but said they did not have anything else. The water pot already had hot water in it when we arrived. I appreciate that. They also had the kind of coffee in which you open the single pack, put it over the cup (good size, not tiny like some places) and pour hot water on it (like a one cup drip coffee- not instant). I often travel with these types of coffee packs as a lot of hotels in Kyushu only have instant coffee or none at all in the rooms. The
