Everything we were hoping for, and more! Love the fact that the bath area and the living area were on different floors. Also, a lovely cabin with a gorgeous view and exceptionally friendly and professional staff. The food was delicious.

Great place with great service!!!
Best service by the owner of the property. The owner was hands on from the check in up to our check out time. I would most definitely recommend this place. One suggestion is to improve on the pillow selection - I had to use the spare comforter as my pillow since the one they provide is a bit too hard but other that everything was superb!

環境優美,房間寬敞整潔,晚餐及早餐都不錯,尤其是晚餐可以看出廚師對菜式的用心設計及烹調。 到旅館需要從由布院車站乘搭大約10分鐘的士,離開時旅館則會提供車輛接載乘客到由布院車站,如果接送兩程均可以由旅館安排車輛,便更加完美。

The hotel is a bit further away from the centre of Yufuin but it is less than 10 mins taxi ride from the station. The hotel is clean, beautiful and serves good food with generous portion. It would be better if the food can be served less in a rush but the pace was still acceptable - after all we could stay in the room to enjoy the onsen after dinner! Service was attentive and staff spoke good English. The scenery from the room was very nice with mountain view, especially in the Autumn season where you can see different shades of colours. Recommended for travellers who want to stay in a quieter part of Yufuin :)
