Yufuin Akarinoyado

Room was huge as with Ryokan style accommodation and generally clean, What great is the reservation system for onsen so you can have a private slot for yourself/family instead of the usually gender sharing arrangement. It is about 10-15 minutes walk to Yunotsubo Kaido and 5 minutes to the train station and Aeon supermart. Unlike some osen town eg. Hakone, there is plenty of food option at night.

Nice hotel with private hot spring. Transportation is convenient, walk a few minutes to the bus terminal.

My room smelled musty. Staff were not knowledgeable and could only do the basics required for check-in. Dinner and breakfast were assembled as none of the staff could do more than make rice in rice cooker. Staff dressed more casual than tourists. The only positives are the rooftop bath and the bikes.

We booked a western style room with ensuite. The room is suited to people younger and smaller than us. Staff were friendly and carried our bags up to the room for us. Beds were too hard for us (we like firm) and chairs too short for comfort. The toiletseat was toosmall for a large male. None of these issues for us would bother smaller, younger people.

It’s near to Yufuin train station, <10min walking. There is Aeon nearby too. The hotel needs to improve the cleanliness and sound proofing. We are lucky just stay 1 night. Elevator is not available. I will not recommend.

Nice property just off the main street, near train station. It is pet friendly with 3 resident cats roaming around the lobby. You get to book 2 sessions at the baths after checked in, the semi open bath on the 2nd level is popular, while the rooftop bath may not be a good idea in cold weather although the view is great. You get free use of the bicycles for your stay. There is no lift so you have to carry your luggages up and down the stairs.

The hotel gives a lot of restrictions such as onsen requiring booking until free access from 9.40pm to the morning, 2hrs for free use of bicycles, bring your own paper cup (provided in your room, one per day) if you want coffee from coffee machine down stairs, no lift… I booked the hotel 6 months in advance at the price of aud365 per night and found the price dropped to aud122 if I had booked just few days in advance. Not value worth!

The staff were so nice, and we were pleasantly surprised when we found out 3 cats lived on the property as well!! Roof top Onsen and first floor were both amazing as well.

Quiet rooms with basic cooking facilities. Ability to book private onsen time, with open air options.

Only stairs moving luggage’s to 3rd floor

有免費泊車，非常適合自駕，溫泉♨️屬於私家溫泉，共有3個，分別位於1樓，3樓及天台，每次使用時間30分鐘，有時要等候，幾分鐘路程就有Lawson, 非常方便，距離市中心幾分鐘車程，搵食非常容易，到附近的金鱗湖遊覽只是10分鐘以內車程，位置極佳，只是旅館本身有些舊，但設備還是齊全，可以接受。

In the promotion of the hotel they mentioned the cost of ¥65.000, with a big discount. The room we stayed is not a ¥65.000 room It is a lay. The staff service was not good, besides the fact that nobody was in the front desk, you have to call them (bell) every time. Very unprofessional. My family and I often go to Yufuin. We WONT stay again in that "ryokan".

We had a lovely stay and would definitely like to come back here. The manager was very friendly. And the onsen facility at the hotel had an amazing view of the mountains.

I’m very disappointed with the onsen arrangement at this hotel. Although they got 3 pools, guests are only allowed to reserve 1, which is misleading. What’s the point of multiple pools if we can’t actually enjoy them? In a normal onsen hotel, guests can use the baths at least twice during their stay. However, this reservation system effectively limits us to just one session, which significantly reduces the experience. Some of the available slots even overlap with dinner time, forcing guests to choose between dining and the onsen experience. The booking system is also inconvenient. If you arrive late, all good time slots are already taken. Some available slots even overlap with dinner time, forcing guests to choose between eating and using the onsen. The so-called “free” onsen time is scheduled in the middle of the night, which is impractical. This would have been acceptable if clearly stated in advance. Unfortunately, the hotel description does not make this restriction clear—otherwise, we would not have chosen this hotel. Additionally, there is a safety concern. All room doors open outward into a very narrow corridor. My mother was hit by another guest opening their door, which is dangerous and unacceptable. Overall, the system is poorly managed and does not provide the relaxing and safe onsen experience expected.

客室や共同トイレは清潔でした。 ご飯のおかわりをしている人もいました。 チェックイン時には一階に猫ちゃんたちがいましたが、不衛生さは全く感じませんでした。 丁寧に説明や応対をしてくれてとてもよかったです。

お風呂のお湯が、1日目と2日目で全く温度が違い、2日目はぬるすぎて入っていられなかった。せっかく温泉を楽しみにしていたのに残念でならなかった。

チェックインのから、だいぶ、待たされてやっと部屋にと思ったら、、ワンちゃん連れだったけど、ネコちゃんがいっぱいいるのはいいけど、ワンちゃんは危ないから抱っこしてくれと言われるししかも階段で三階まで、めっちゃ疲れた😖💦ワンちゃん連れて行く旅館じゃないかな、、ワンちゃんファーストが一つもなかったです！

住Sp33。房間的冷暖氣機運轉的聲音滿大的，但發現時已是晚上10點後，無法即時反應，但索性不開，室外溫度0度的情況下，不開窗戶也還可以。能有40分鐘的私人溫屋時時間滿不錯的，也有半夜開啟的公共湯屋。大廳的貓相當親人可愛。

員工很熱心，雖然沒泡到露天溫泉，但室內溫泉也不錯。希望換衣服的地方，能有面紙和棉花棒。門外有停車位，剛好符合自駕旅遊。

房間相對來說是偏小的，整潔度還可以，溫泉很舒服，但附近生態好，露天溫泉比較容易看見小飛蟲，會在意的可能選室內比較好，早餐還不錯，櫃檯人員都相當親切，貓貓也很可愛，附近有超市離車站也不算遠，相當方便
