Perfect location for a peaceful holiday surrounded by nature

Beautiful, peaceful and quiet location just at the bottom of Mount Kuju. The views were just incredible and it was the perfect respite after the city. The location was perfect for us, we were able to explore Mount Kuju, Mount Aso and Takachiho Gorge. Onsens were great. Staff were friendly and welcoming, we can't wait to go back!

The bed was very firm

Amazing and delicious dinner and breakfast. Staff were friendly and helpful. Outdoor onsen and sauna were nice. Kotatsu in room was a nice touch.

Onsen water was lukewarm, not hot. The futons were not very comfortable.

Beautiful rustic surrounds with good food. Amenities were decent but not very clean.

Our bathroom reeked of stale urine. Was silly to carpet the toilet floor. The humming from the generator was particularly disturbing at night as the surrounds were so quiet.

Enjoy to stay

Like the views surrounding the cottage, the room is spacious and have great view. Breakfast and dinner are good, especially we have upgraded bbq dinner to Wagyu. Staff are nice, outdoor onsen and Sauna is good. Can have local beer at the restaurant near the hotel.

The facilities are a bit old, but clean.

Great stay in Kuju

We enjoyed the dinner which was different every night and very generous in terms of portions. We enjoyed the onsen after full days of visiting the region. The staff was very helpful and kind.

Great experience if you are looking to get away from the city, dinner is amazing.

The absolute highlight of this property was the food and staff! We stayed for 2 nights and had breakfast and dinner each morning and night. Breakfast is standard continental breakfast with a good selection of Japanese dishes, but dinner shined! 1st night we had a 14 course Japanese set dinner, ryokan style, then we had wagyu beef charcoal BBQ on the 2nd night. Amazing quality! The staff are the most responsive I have ever interacted with, they always replied with a couple of hours to anything I asked them. There is are 2 onsite onsens; 1 public that's included as part of your stay, and 1 private that requires booking and an additional charge. The private onsen is suited for families, as the public onsen is divided by gender, as is typical for onsens.

The location is remote, you must drive to get here, and there are no nearby stores of any kind. If you want to buy anything, there is a small onsite snack/souvenir store, but the selection is low. The bathroom in the room is pretty bad. We visited mid-December and the bathroom does not have any heating, so it was absolutely freezing! I recommend taking your showers at the onsite onsen instead of using your room's shower (which also has zero water pressure. The shower head basically dribbles on you). The toilet handle was broken and flushing was more difficult than I ever expected.

A simple cottage, with amazing view!

The view from the cottage is amazing - beautiful views of the hills and mountains in the distance. It's worth it to view the sunset during the visit. Lovely and delicious Japanese dinner and breakfast. Friendly staffs and nice onsen (with beautiful outdoor view too).

The little rest house near the hill to view sunset was not in-use anymore. Will be great if can sit there to view the sunset.

Food was great as we requested for Wagyu beef BBQ for dinner at extra costs. Buffer breakfast had a considerable good spread but they closed very punctually at 10am. The onsen was great with view of Aso Alps if you visit before dark or early in the morning before they close for cleaning. The hotel staff were attentive as they noticed that we forgot to turn off headlights of our car after checking in and called us by the room phone to alert us! Although we stayed at the farthest block away from the main block, we were able to park our car near our block and only dragged our luggage for a short distance! We arrived after dark due to the distance of the place and was texting the hotel to inform them that we will be late for dinner. They were kind to respond and guided us to dinner first before going to the room.

The onsen did not provide shampoo/conditioner/face wash which was a surprise to us as most onsen hotels will provide such amenities. The hotel is very far away, although the drive was scenic, we ended up arriving late for dinner. It is a must to book half board if staying here. This is a ranch style hotel, and the space is huge. Staying furthest away from the main block, we have to drive to take breakfast and visit the onsen to save time walking. (We walked to the onsen in the night before and took at least 15 minutes maneuvering through the other blocks of cottages before we reached the onsen - the signs were all faded in colors and directions were not clearly shown!) Centipedes were found in the bathroom (hiding underneath the bathmat of the shower area) of the room -not sure what can be done but my daughter refused to bath in the bathroom because of this! We noted that it can't be helped as the hotel is this near to nature, but maybe room servicing team can check and clean the rooms better? (note the bathroom has no windows, so maybe the centipedes crawl in from the sewage pipes?) Overall, the room is big and spacious but the futons are too thin for the platform (unlike tatami floor, it is too hard to sleep on the platform beds with thin futons!)

Panoramic views

The view of Aso from the outdoor bath was spectacular. Every dish of the traditional Japanese dinner was delicious and thoughtfully prepared.
