Beppu Onsen Irifuneso in Beppu

The inn is child-friendly and offers a reasonable price. Although I’m not sure whether the water is 100% natural hot spring, it is not very fresh. The food is good, and the staff are kind to small kids. Overall, it is a nice inn for families with small kids.

I stayed with my 1.5 year old child. They have all the necessary items for children, so you don't need to bring anything with you. They also have body soap for children in the bathroom, which was very helpful. They asked me to keep it a secret since it's not for sale, but I was amazed at both the quality and quantity of the food! It might be just right to skip lunch. The view is great, and it's easily accessible to the hell tour! It was a really great inn 😊

This inn has a very homey feel.

They have lots of toys for kids, including Anpanman DVDs.

The hot springs are private, so you can adjust the temperature, and there are plenty of hot spring toys for kids.

Other hotels require you to buy and prepare everything, so this is perfect for family trips for moms who are always busy with housework.

They have diapers and a place to dispose of them, which is really great.

If I had to mention something, it's a little confusing, so it's best to do your research before you go.

Cozy atmosphere with good food and nice private bath that family can use. All the stuff was friendly and knowledgeable about the area. Very convenient to get to local day onsen like Suji-yu, Mushi-yu and Hyoutan. We had a great stay there and will definitely come back.

This time, I was the only one staying, but after finishing some errands, my daughter and her husband and two grandchildren went to take a bath in the hot springs. However, while my grandchildren were playing with the cat, both of the hot springs in the family bath were blocked and I was unable to use them. So, the landlady asked a friend of hers to go to a nearby hot spring inn, and her daughter and her husband were able to safely soak in the hot springs and return home. I heard later that the inn they introduced me to gave me something to make soap bubbles with, and my grandchildren were very happy with it. There are only 5 rooms, but the hot springs were very pleasant, the futons were very comfortable to sleep on, and the breakfast was very delicious. I think this is the perfect accommodation to stay with small children. The landlady was very talkative and treated us with consideration. Thank you for letting us have a comfortable night's stay.
