Look no further, book here. You will like it..
From the host greeting you on arrival to leisurely chatting to you and seeing you off in the driveway. You really can't fault this place. Perhaps it's normal by Japanese hospitality standards and this is why people love visiting the country as well as what the area has to offer. Highly recommended to those seeking an experience to stay at a more traditional type of accomodation with enough privacy to access their facilities (hot springs) etc.

Can't be more satisfied.
This was our second visit since our first visit 4 years ago. And the best even gets better. We really expected flawless stay and we were even more satisfied. Private onsens are nice and the improvement with usage indicators on TV is a useful addition. Every meal is perfect, with beer being a welcome drink option. Sleep is perfect. Hospitality is perfect. Yamashiroya will always be our first choice for Yufu area visit.

The hospitality here is heartfelt and so welcoming
The warm welcome from our hostess and host basically set the tone for our one night stay at Yamashiroya. Note to others: please call ahead or take the back road to get to the ryokan. There is no way a car can get up the steep narrow road from the main 'town' area (i.e., take road 537). Our room was delightful: cosy but had a flatscreen TV with free movies (albeit most are in Japanese), WIFI, and a pretty little mountain view. They only have 5-6 rooms all up and 4 onsens (2 indoor, 2 outdoor) so you chances of always being able to relax in the baths is quite high! Stay also included dinner and breakfast - prepared in house and traditional Japanese style. Very yum and filling. Could not fault our stay and thoroughly enjoyed it. We got there around 4 PM in the afternoon and departed around 10 the next day.

Excellent service, excellent onsen, excellent food and extremely friendly host. Can't say much about local area because it's in the middle of nowhere, but the main purpose of staying in this hotel is to experience the Japanese style of living as well as the hot spring. It was a memorable and lovely stay.
