Yufuin Sunday

If you're looking for a warm and welcoming stay in Yufuin, this guest house is a true gem. Jin-san, the host, went above and beyond to make our visit memorable. He greeted us at Yufuin JR Station and kindly offered us a ride to the accommodation, setting the tone for a truly personal experience. Our family room was cozy and well-equipped, providing everything we needed. One of the highlights was the onsen, which can be reserved for private use, making it a relaxing and enjoyable retreat. Another big plus was that Jin-san offered to drop us off at the starting point for our early-morning Mount Yufu trek. This thoughtful gesture saved us from the hassle of arranging transport and let us start our day off on the right foot. The scenery around the guest house is breathtaking, adding to the peaceful atmosphere. And of course, we can’t forget Momo-chan, the charming resident cat, who added an extra touch of warmth to our stay. For anyone seeking a homey, relaxing experience with incredible hospitality in Yufuin, this guest house is a perfect choice.

The floor mattresses were a bit thin—so if you’re not used to traditional futons, it might feel less cushioned than expected. For me personally, it was not a huge issue as I got a good night's sleep. The location is bit far from Yufuin town centre but it is made up by Jin-san providing transport.

Loved the quiet location, kind staff, clean facilities, and cute cat!

The private onsen is cool! The host was friendly and always attend to our questions patiently! There is onsite parking too!

A very friendly host, he picked us up on the station, prepared a private onsen bath for us and even gave us a valuable hint for an amazing walk in vicinity of the accommodation.
