The location is great, only few minutes walking from the train station. Everything in the hotel is just right, not too much and not too little as well. I would stay at the hotel again if I visit Yufuin.

Nice property just off the main street, near train station. It is pet friendly with 3 resident cats roaming around the lobby. You get to book 2 sessions at the baths after checked in, the semi open bath on the 2nd level is popular, while the rooftop bath may not be a good idea in cold weather although the view is great. You get free use of the bicycles for your stay. There is no lift so you have to carry your luggages up and down the stairs.

The hotel gives a lot of restrictions such as onsen requiring booking until free access from 9.40pm to the morning, 2hrs for free use of bicycles, bring your own paper cup (provided in your room, one per day) if you want coffee from coffee machine down stairs, no lift…
I booked the hotel 6 months in advance at the price of aud365 per night and found the price dropped to aud122 if I had booked just few days in advance.
Not value worth!

In the promotion of the hotel they mentioned the cost of ¥65.000, with a big discount.
The room we stayed is not a ¥65.000 room
It is a lay.
The staff service was not good, besides the fact that nobody was in the front desk, you have to call them (bell) every time.
Very unprofessional.
My family and I often go to Yufuin.
We WONT stay again in that "ryokan".
