This place is in a quiet area in Yufuin. Open fields and mountains in the background give you an amazing view from your room for sunsets, or sunrises. The staff are friendly, helpful, and welcoming. This is secluded enough to enjoy a quiet stay, but still be close enough to drive to Beppu and Oita to enjoy the city attractions.

Wonderful place to stay in Yufuin. It is a bit away from the main street so it is very quiet and peaceful. Onsens (indoors and outdoor) experience were wonderful. The owners were really kind and helpful with instructions on the city's attractions and several important locations. The station is about 10 minutes away, so easy to reach. The best experience is the morning bento, which was of the highest qualities and with the great view towards the garden. I would visit again for sure.

유후인 여행을 완성시켜준 최고의 숙소

유후인의 평화로운 료칸을 즐기기에 최적의 장소입니다. 위치도 역에서 걸어갈정도의 거리이고, 온천도 혼자 쓸 수 있어 좋고 음식 데워먹는 것도 편했어요. 숙소 들어가실때 시내 편의점에서 꼭 저녁 사서 가세요. 재방문 의사 100%입니다.

유후인 시골 료칸

가성비 좋은 료칸입니다. 식사도 훌륭하고 온천은 공동이용이지만 숙박인원이 많지는 않아 기다리거나 한적없이 충분히 자유롭게 이용할 수 있었습니다. 무엇보다 가격대비 방이 큰 편입니다.

유휴다케를 정면으로 바라보며 그 앞에 논이 펼쳐져 있는 모습은 두고두고 잊혀지지 않을 겁니다. 밤의 개구리 합창도요. 주인장께서는 친절하셨고, 방도 좋았습니다. 숙소를 나와 유후다케를 바라보면서 걸어서 스태인드글라스 뮤지엄을 관람하고 유후인 거리쪽으로 걸어가는 길도 참 좋았고, 유후인 역 근처에서 식사후에 숙소까지 걸어오는 길도 좋았습니다. 유후인에 오는 목적이야 다양하겠지만, 조용하고 여유로운 휴식처를 찾는다면 이 숙소를 추천합니다.

다음날 일정이 있어 숙소를 빨리 나왔지만 그게 아니라면 꼭 숙소 근처에서 아침 산책을 추천드립니다! 정말 지브리 그 자체를 느끼는거 같아서 너무 좋았어요! 주인부부 분들도 너무 친절하시고 좋습니다! 만약 도시에 있는 숙소였다면 도보가 조금 멀어서 불편했다고 생각했겠지만, 기왕 시골로 온거 주위 풍경 보면서 걸으니 오히려 더 좋았습니다! 긴린코 호수까지 꽤 멀긴 했지만 주위 풍경이 너무 예뻐서 구경하면서 꽤 빠르게 도착했다고 생각합니다. 호수 근처에 마트도 큰게 두개나 있어서 사서 숙소 들어가면 좋습니다! 아침식사가 정말 맛있고 정성스러우니 반드시 드셔보시는 것 추천드려요!! 저는 다음에 또 이용할 생각입니다.
