I stayed this hotel for a family travel. My mother was satisfied with staying 'Ryutouen ryokan'.' A room is large, comfotable. The special smell of ryokan is good to me. I'd like to recommend this hotel to ohers.

The hotel is on a small hill overlooking a river. The room is of good size. The public bath always fill with local people in the afternoon and evening. Do try it in the early morning. The outdoor bath is not hot enough.

Our experience at Hotel Ryutouen was mixed. Our traditional Japanese-style room was great and the staff was overall very kind and helpful. We also enjoyed the hotel's public bathing area. However, I would not be able to recommend this hotel to those traveling in Japan without a car. Here is why... The hotel listing says that "Free train station pickup" is available. Yet, when we called the morning prior to our arrival, we were told that we needed to confirm with them at least 3 days prior to our arrival. I find this to be a bit unreasonable. Rather than being picked up as planned (which was one of the reasons we booked the hotel in the first place), we had to arrange our own transport from the train station, which by bus is about 1000 yen per person round trip and obviously more by taxi. The hotel listing also states "Free area shuttle." When I inquired about this, I was told they do not have a shuttle. However, the shuttle van was sitting in the parking lot, so my guess is that they may offer this during peak times when they have enough guests to make it worth it to them. This was pretty disappointing given that the hotel is a bit remote and even their own restaurant was not open the evening we stayed there. Apart from the transportation issues, we enjoyed this hotel and would recommend it to anyone who has their own vehicle.

温泉が気持ち良い 景色は余り見えない 鯉のぼりがよく見える

施設内はきれいでした。朝ごはんもおいしかったです。

お風呂が、広くて湯船に檜がいくつも浮かんでいて良かった。

조용하게 쉬기는 좋았으나, 시설이 좀 낙후된 느낌이 있었습니다.

舊式日本溫泉酒店, 但保養好, 房間整潔, 有免費車位, 附近沒有店舖, 要揸車到外面才有商場及食店, 但路程亦十分近.

조용하고 편안한 숙박이었습니다.

設施有點舊。

満足度: 部屋→歴史ある宿ではあるものの、室内の老朽度が目立つ、室内の臭い、浴室の老朽度合、 食事→朝食のみであったが、普通 スタッフ対応→普通 wifi→利用説明はきちんとされた、利用可能 駐車場→利用可能、高速出口から10分以内で便利は良い 周辺環境→ホテルから20分以内にお店やレストランもあり

フロンの対応が親切。野菜中心の朝食が大変美味しい。車で１５分で、佐賀城遺跡（展示館）。大変興味ふかい展示館で、ボランティアの方の説明が素晴らしい。
