3 star hotels in Yufu

We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. The room was spacious, comfortable, and well laid out. Everything was clean and well maintained. The private onsen was spotless and well kept. We could book a slot for free when we check in. We drove and park at the accom. Easy 10-15 min walk to yufuin village without luggage.

Clean accomodaton with nice onsen despite old fashion design, service is good, free shuttle (taxi) to the train station is provided.

The environment here is lovely, and the hot springs are incredibly relaxing. The breakfast and dinner provided were both delicious. I thoroughly enjoyed this trip.

Hotel location is slightly away from main street Yufuin. I emailed to ask if possible late check in and later dinner and all promising. Great to have the private hot spring reserved on arrival evening that we, two couples of four persons can enjoy peace and quiet moment with our love ones. Rooms are tidy, clean but aging. Staff are extremely helpfully. They help us to call to book Horse Carriage Ride...

The hotel's location is quite far from the station, about a 25-minute walk. However, they do offer pick-up and drop-off service from the station, which we didn't arrange beforehand. Walking along the road for a stretch was a bit tough. On the upside, the surroundings of the hotel are very quiet. The room style is a bit old-fashioned but spacious. The evening onsen was great, I had it all to myself...

The hotel itself is a bit older, and you can definitely feel its age in some areas of the property. That said, it still maintains a certain traditional charm. One thing to note is that the location isn’t the easiest to access on foot—you’ll really need a car to get around comfortably, especially if you plan to explore the surrounding area. What truly stood out during my stay was the restaurant staff...

The hygiene at Tanglu is average, but the location and service are excellent.

Located on the central side street of Yufuin, the room was not big, just enough for three people. But fortunately it was very quiet. When I woke up the next day, it was snowing!

This is a family stay, they do not know Japanese and English, but can communicate (Body Language) In addition, alcohol and water are all you can drink really great, the family will stay very happy.

The room is large and the facilities are good. Except for the private bath, which is a bit old, it is open all day, allowing you to take a bath freely. Ctrip's room details are not detailed, otherwise there is no need to book an extra room. The set meals were not very good, but the surrounding shops closed too early, so I had no choice.

It rained in Yufuin on the day I went, but you cleaned all the carriers yourself and were very kind. It was convenient to have an English-speaking staff, and I was satisfied with the meal!

메인 스트리트 근처에 있어서 좋았어요 큰길 따라서 유후인 버스정류장에서 10분 정도 걸리고 큰길에서도 골목으로 꺾으면 바로 있어요 직원분들도 친절하시고 부탁 드리니까 짐도 체크인 전후에 전부 맡아주셨어요 영어도 가능하셔서 영어로 소통했습니다! 저녁도 정말 푸짐하고 아침도 맛있어요 저녁은 6시랑 6시15분 중 선택할 수 있는데 대부분 유후인 가게들이 5시에 문을 닫아서 좀 일찍 와서 짐 맡기고 5시까지 구경하고 체크인 하고 밥 먹으면 딱이에용 아침도 맛있었어요 후식으로 나오는 푸딩 짱...욕탕도 내부 온천 2개 노천탕 2개인데 프라이빗하게 1팀씩 사용할 수 있어서 좋았습니다 모두들 친절하게 대해주셔서 즐거운 여행이었습니다👍

The hotel is very clean and the place is beautiful, however, the dinner and breakfast is very average compare to the price we paid. There is additional fee of Yen 12,600 for one toddler (for dinner and breakfast)

The location isn't great, but the pick-up service made it convenient! The ryokan is old, but well-maintained and has a great view.

A standard Japanese-style hotel with a natural hot spring. Breakfast and dinner were both excellent. After dinner, we walked along a country road through wheat fields, surrounded by vast expanses of green. On a very cool summer day, we walked to the lake. It was a wonderful experience. Take the JR train to Yufuin, and the hotel provides a shuttle service. It's about a 10-minute drive.

The staff was very friendly and prepared dinner for us even though we arrived late. They provided a shuttle from the hotel to the station. The hotel also provided free ice cream and beer after our hot spring bath. A truly wonderful Japanese hot spring inn.

Nice hotel with private onsen, dinner and breakfast. The hotel provides free pick up from Yufuin train station by calling.

I'm so, so satisfied with the food, the service, the layout, etc. And the joy of seeing this review every day. This is a place I'd love to visit again. I'll be back with my family again.

The inn staff were very kind and helpful. The hot spring water was excellent. I was able to relax and unwind. It was great to see Mount Yufu from my room.

The hotel offers a convenient pick-up service from the train station. It's a very tranquil place, perfect for a relaxing getaway.

We came with our parents and had a fantastic time, enjoying both the hot springs and the delicious meals.

The overall style is very retro, with the flavor of a traditional Japanese hot spring hotel. The hotel staff speaks good English and can communicate in English. When you arrive at the Honin Station, you can call the hotel for pick-up, which is very convenient.

This was my second visit, and I loved it so much that I'll definitely be coming back every time I'm in Fukuoka.

Staff is friendly and helpful Good location Room is big with private onsen Will definitely recommend to friends and relatives who visit Yufuin

The owner has put a lot of effort into making this a beautiful and unique hotel, and the hot springs are absolutely amazing! 👍👍 The garden is lovely, and the cats are very well looked after and super cute! 😍 The open-air bath offers stunning views.

That place is really adorable! A little bit far from the station, but the view of Yufu Mountain on your way and from the window of the room is beautiful. Room is very clean and comfortable, with nice cat's decorations everywhere. Onsen facilities are organised perfectly, and you can enjoy it in private. The owner is friendly, cats staff are also so nice. Additional price 1000 yens is required for...

The owner is very kind. The seven cats each have their own personality and are extremely cute.

The owner was very welcoming, the room was very clean, and the view from the window was great—you could even see the JR train passing by. The open-air bath was very comfortable, and all the cats were adorable and very therapeutic. Thank you to the owner and his wife for their warm hospitality. If I ever come to Yufuin again, I will definitely stay at Laughing Cat Inn.

Cats only in the cafe and we have to pay to get to there… no card pay at all… we had to drive to bank… Finally I didn’t like the meals and stuff

The owner carefully explained each cat's character and hot spring facilities, took the initiative to help us take pictures before leaving, and also gave small gifts

The hotel staff were incredibly friendly and kind, and their English was fluent. The room was spacious and modern, and the entire hotel was very clean. The location was convenient, close to the shopping street, and within walking distance to the lake. Both dinner and breakfast were plentiful, and the private onsen was very comfortable. It was a delightful experience.

A beautiful boutique hotel with truly personalised service. Location is perfect - just a hop from the main shopping street and a short walk to the lake. The dinner is beautifully presented with seemingly like a new-ending flow of different carefully curated dishes. You get 3 shared private onsen. What make it most memorable for me is the out of the way service. A special shout out to Amy. I had a medical...

A perfect onsen ryokan! The location is fantastic, and the experience was incredibly comfortable. The hot springs are top-notch. I loved jogging around Lake Kinrinko in the morning and soaking in the onsen while it was snowing – it was amazing! The facilities are new and high-tech.

Simply love the whole vibes of the ryokan, tucked in a quiet corner yet a stone’s throw away frm the busy shops! Love the private onsen experience and the concierge was just so friendly and helpful.

This is an accident place to spend the quiet couple of days. I enjoyed myself. Unfortunately the kitchen was closed. However the breakfast was good.

This hotel is absolutely beautiful, with a wonderfully relaxing and distinctive design. I felt incredibly comfortable after checking in. The rooms are spacious and bright, and the staff are all very friendly and approachable. The hot springs are also excellent, with both indoor and outdoor options. The hotel's location is super convenient for shopping, making it a quiet oasis in a bustling area. Although...

The host is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Communication in English is smooth. Amenities are great and clean. Within 10 mins walk to yufuin floral village, Kinrin Lake, and local supermarket. The host prepared info cards in our room with restaurant recommendations (with info on opening time too) - very thoughtful. Great in-room onsen ♨️ 😌 and Dyson hair dryer is a nice touch too!

This was our favorite stay during our 11-day Kyushu tour, and it happened to be on our very first night. The room was spacious, comfortable, and incredibly relaxing, and the private onsen was amazing—we used it both at night and in the morning. The service from the hosts was exceptional. We accidentally left a bag of clothes after check-out, and they had it delivered to our next hotel the same evening...

very good, very good, very good, very good, very good, very good, very good, very good,

Although the hotel's location is a bit remote, they offer a shuttle service, and the staff are all friendly, sincere, and polite! The room is spacious, clean, tidy, and well-equipped! The surroundings are beautiful, and the hot springs are wonderful! Overall, it's excellent! Highly recommended! 👍👍

The hotel's location is quite remote, nestled in the woods. Walking around at night felt really eerie with no streetlights, almost like a bear might pop out! Both breakfast and dinner offered a good variety of dishes, and for our two-day stay, the menu never repeated, which was great for enjoying different foods.

I had an exceptional stay at this hotel. From the moment I arrived, the service was warm, professional, and efficient, making the entire experience seamless and welcoming. The room was spotless, well-appointed, and extremely comfortable. Housekeeping maintained high standards of cleanliness throughout my stay, which I truly appreciated. One of the highlights was the clean and well-maintained private...

Onsen was nice, the meals were decent and delicious, would definitely come again.

I have been here twice already. This time I was a bit disappointed as you can tell the room is old and facility is old. No surprise on the food. I might not re visit again.

Quite far from Yufuin JR station but the hotel offered free shuttle (last service 17:00) but you could easily take a taxi which took about 7 minutes from the station. The room was very spacious and clean, onsen was located on the G/F which was easily accessible. Dinner and breakfast was available and highly recommended (there was nothing else near the hotel anyway).

Very good hotel with two meals,

Excellent service and Kaiseki! You're gonna love this ryokan!

Lovely Japanese Inn with excellent service. There's a public onsen which everyone can use and I think all rooms have their own private onsen. Very nice atmosphere and incredibly relaxing. A short walk away from the sights, shops and restaurants of Yufuin. Very recommended.

I stumbled upon this hotel by chance, and the experience was even better than what I read in reviews. Although none of the staff spoke foreign languages, they were all very enthusiastic and helpful. They offer fresh milk in the morning, which was a lovely touch. The onsen is private, with only three tubs, so you have to reserve a spot to use them. Otherwise, you can just use the bath in your room...

Hoteiya is situated close to Lake Kinrin. Onsen was great, however, the public onsens required waiting by chance as there was no sign up system. One thing bothered me was the aircon system which was quite loud at night.

Location is pretty close to most iconic place in Yufuin. Walking distance to the lake KinRin and Floral Village. The service was great. The room was pretty big for 2 people but the outdoor bathroom wasn’t ideal. Too cold to take a shower outdoor. They have 2 private onsens, 1 indoor and 1 outdoor. Both has (in use) and (usable) signs to see if it’s available. No time booking in advance. So you won...

Amazing stays, staff was very friendly and polite, he explained everything to us well and clear. And they provide free shuttle from Yufuin station. There’s popcorn making after 8pm at the lobby, it was a fun experience. Breakfast and dinner was very delicious. Had a very pleasant and happy stay here.

Staying at this hot spring hotel during cherry blossom season created wonderful memories for my family and me. The hotel provides a convenient shuttle service—just a quick call from the station, and within 10 minutes, a car arrives to take guests directly to the hotel. The staff were exceptionally polite and attentive. Upon noticing that my father was using a cane, they kindly arranged a room for...

Excellent hotel, service is good, food is also good

I like it very much. The host (both male and female) are very nice, especially the host woman is very help which helped to dry my tee. Assi the cat is really cute but has a little bit temper. The location is excellent and I got a very good sleep. The house is really beautiful. Overall is high satisfactory, except for two points below:- 1. There is no air-conditioning in the common area (which is...

Not far from the station but if you have big luggage you have to drag it uphill a little bit 🥹. The street in Yufuin in the evening is very quiet and dark so recommend to get back to the place not too late. The place was run by the very nice lady (felt like she’s a mom or granny) and Assi the cat. The room is way soooooo cute and cozy that I should stay here more than 1 night 🥹 It’s B&B style with...

cozy homestay by 5 mins walk from Yufuin station, great service with non-public onsen and breakfast included, will have to share bathroom if you don’t mind. And of course having Assi around definitely made your stay unforgettable.

I stayed with Assi for one night when I travelled to Yufuin by myself. It was a healing and relaxing experience. It felt so much like staying with your grandma in the rural side of the country. The hotel was run by an old lady who would use translation app to introduce you to the place. She was very responsive to questions and friendly to talk to. My stay in the Japanese style room was great, there...

a neat and cozy place! the road to the house is a bit narrow but once you are inside you can truly relax. the hostess kept the place really neat and tidy. the location is great as well. Definitely recommend.

Room is so cute, I booking standard room for one person and in the room they prepare everything; single bed with pajamas, coat, refrigerator, and couch. And they have small kitchen with free of water and coffee. location a little far from the JR station around 10 minute by walk.

Very clean, ideal location, the sukiyaki dinner and Japanese breakfast were delicious, the private bath was quite unique, and overall it was cost-effective and highly recommended.

There was a hot spring in each room and the service was great. The sukiyaki (dinner) was so delicious that I kept shouting out how delicious it was, and the portions were also large, which was nice. I really felt like I was being treated well! I will make a reservation next time I come with my family.

I think I know why everyone goes to Seian Seian. I love it so much that I will definitely go back next time I visit Yufuin!!!

The service was excellent, the rooms were spacious, and there was a clean private hot spring with smooth, odor-free water. The Japanese tatami mats were new and clean. It was very comfortable and relaxing to sit or lie down anywhere in the room. Dinner, as other guests have commented, featured a delicious hot pot of beef that would make your mouth water. The beef was very fresh, plentiful, and consisted...

The room was very clean, the food was delicious, and the coffee pudding served as dessert was also very delicious. The hot spring was, without a doubt, very good, and the owner was very kind and took such good care of me, so I was really grateful. It was a very, very satisfying day ^^ I'll rest well and go ㅎㅎ

This hotel is similar to a guesthouse in China, run by an elderly couple in their fifties. The woman handles reception and cleaning, while the man is the cook and general helper. Our group of eight had all four rooms to ourselves, so I feel I have a lot to say about it. The largest room in the hotel has a Japanese-style room, but the bath area there is a bit lacking. The other three rooms have semi...

The rooms were spacious, and private onsen (hot spring bath) was available for free rental. It wasn't far from the train station. The only downside was that check-out time was 10:00 AM. After check-out, both the guest and their luggage had to leave the hotel. There was no luggage storage. Having traveled all over Japan, this was the first time I'd encountered a hotel like this. The owner claimed it...

While the ryokan seemed a bit dated, its cleanliness was excellent, and the view was absolutely stunning. We also appreciated being able to reserve the private open-air bath. The breakfast was delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly, making our entire trip a wonderful stay!

The kindness of the owner of hotel was not good.

The owner is very nice. It is rare to have public baths and free private baths. The only downside is that the allergy level in the room doubles during the pollen season. I don't know why.

I love it so much ♥ ♥ ♥ Thank you so much for being so kind to me. I hope you always stay healthy and prosper!

I am satisfied with the overall experience. The hot springs were good and the location was good. The owner was kind. However, you can't stay in the lobby on the first floor after the check-out time. My father, who is not feeling well, was kicked out on a rainy day with three suitcases.

I was overall satisfied with the ryokan's facilities, hospitality, and food. If you have children, it's a bit of a walk from the center of Yufuin, so it might be a good idea to keep that in mind.

Clean and hygienic, excellent service, and delicious food. However, if you have luggage and a stroller, you'll need to take a taxi as it's not walkable to Yufuin Station.

The staff were very friendly, I was satisfied with both breakfast and dinner, and it was nice to have a private hot spring in the room.

It is a 15-minute walk from the station and the lack of shuttle service is a disadvantage. However, the facilities are good and the water, which is the original function of the hot spring, is good. I would visit again.

The best choice for self-driving tours in Yufuin, private hot springs are comfortable and the price is reasonable

The bathroom was very nice. I was very satisfied with the kaiseki content. You can choose a bath in the open eye room. Good without need. There are many bathrooms

This place was amazing! Even though our room didn't have a private bath, the family baths were all so beautiful and fantastic. The water was excellent, it was perfect. Both dinner and breakfast provided were superb. We're definitely planning to visit again!

This hotel is a private family hotel in the small town of Yufuin. The hotel is in a good location, with Yufu Mountain behind it. When you get up in the morning, the mist is hazy and very fairy. The hotel is a one-night stay with two meals, and the hot spring private bath is very comfortable. The hotel has a shuttle bus to pick up from the JR station. The hotel has no elevator, but the waiter will help...

We were three people and they put extra bed for us. Great service

Staying here made my trip to Yufuin the best! This is a place where everything was perfect

I stayed in a room with an open-air bath at Nobirusansou. It had a small room and an open-air bath, and overall it felt like an old ryokan. The hot spring water was blue and very pretty, and the overall kaiseki meal was sufficient and edible. However, it seemed impossible to walk anywhere from the ryokan due to the location, and it was possible to move around comfortably because pick-up delivery was...

The place is large and the scenery is beautiful. The facilities are decent, and it has some history.

Wonderful view over the valley, this spacious room offers a private onsen. Completely with tatami mats and comfortable beds it’s a very relaxing stopover fur the pretty town of Yulfuin. It’s not the easiest of places to find, tucked away at the end of a small windy road outside of town. There are no eateries nearby, so as the restaurant was closed, we had to stock up on food from the supermarket....

Must stay The meal is excellent. Service is great

I had an amazing time at Ryokan Yufuin Tsubaki. I booked the half-board stay at Tsubaki using ******* and the staff at Tsubaki was in contact with me almost immediately to confirm the details and finalize the pick up time from Yufuin Station. Note that as a fan of walking, even Tsubaki's location is a bit far from the Yufuin Station so once the staff picks you up at the train station to take you back...

I was very satisfied with this hot spring trip. The hotel is only a 10-minute drive from Kinrin Lake. The breakfast and dinner are very rich and delicious. The independent hot spring is located underground, which is very unique. I am also very grateful to the hotel manager for arranging a proposal for me in the hot spring hotel. Thank you for arranging roses for me in the past 2-3 months! This is a...

Food was disappointing for this price point. The onsen area relies on steam to block prying eyes. But this also means there is no outside view for us. The other property we stayed at offered better value, despite having a higher price.

We used this hotel for our anniversary! Although it's located right near the Yufudake Smart Interchange, it felt like we were in a forest, creating an extraordinary atmosphere. We stayed in a room with a sauna, which provided a supremely private space with a beautiful view. The French cuisine was wonderful and delicious, perfect for our anniversary. We were so glad we chose this hotel. Thanks to...

It's located deep in the mountains, far from the center of Yufuin. It takes about 20 minutes by car from Yufuin, so getting there by car is essential. There's no public transportation. The rooms are comfortable, but the location gets quite cold in winter, and the provided air conditioner was insufficient, requiring it to be run at full power. Because of this, the air was extremely dry; a humidifier...

Breakfast at Forest Inn Born in Tsukahara Kogen, Yufuin Forest Inn Born offers hot springs, allowing you to soak while enjoying cherry blossoms! A truly beautiful sight. The inn has a restaurant that serves free breakfast daily. My stay included two meals a day, which was quite nice! Enjoy the tranquility of the forest. This trip to Fukuoka, where I drive on the right, actually has many stories to...

I stayed here for the weekend. True to its name, Forest Inn, this inn is nestled deep in the forest. A car is required, but the atmosphere is undeniably pleasant. Dinner, starting at 6 p.m., was served in a separate cabin about a 30-second walk from my room. I'm not a big alcoholic, so I savored a glass of wine. We had a French course meal, and everything from the appetizer to the main course was...

Would be nice to have vegan and vegetarian options without dead animals.

The room is a traditional Japanese family villa. The room I booked is on the first floor. There is a private bath in the small courtyard. Those who want to experience a traditional Japanese room can try it. The only drawback is that it takes half an hour to walk from the JR station. In the countryside, you used to have to ask the owner to pick you up, but he said that he didn't rent the house on Ctrip...

It was perfect hot spring experience. Manager was so kind to have a dinner with me outside of hotel that night of visit with two other American and English guys whom were working at that ho spring hotel, also was very kind. Really hope to visit again very soon and hope to see that piggy soon.
