Guest Reviews
- Elliott (10/5): - Incredible staff
- Christopher (10/5): - If you like Cat’s and Onsen’s then this is the place for you. The onsen is nice and private for you to relax in with no worries either indoor or outdoor. All the cats are so adorable. The staff are so kind and accommodating. Want to come back soon. Highly recommend :)
- TAKAKO (10/5): - 自然豊かでのんびりできました。猫ちゃんにも凄く癒されました。
- Natalie (6/5): - Tidy, cats are so cute and the outside hot spring is beautiful , but the train tracks are too close, and it would noisy when the train passes by, it made us too hard to sleep and car park is not closed to hotel
- Macy (10/5): - 好滿足、好舒服，是一間非常好的旅館。
- Natalie (10/5): - What a great experience! Beautiful grounds, friendly staff, and delicious food. The cats theme is charming and we loved being able to spend time with them. It was nice having a private onsen and since there are limited guests, we didn’t have to reserve and were able to bathe whenever we asked. I recommend staying more than one night, and wish the trip were longer. Thank you for the beautiful stay!
- Midori (10/5): - ねこカフェが併設してあるとのことで、ねこが好きなので泊まりたいと思いました。 露天風呂も3つあり、家族で入れます。 部屋には色々とねこのグッズ⁉︎時計や布団カバーや加湿器、ティッシュカバーが籐の籠だったりトイレの壁紙がねこ柄だったりと可愛かったです。 猫ちゃん達も可愛かったです。癒されました。最初に猫ちゃんの名前とそれぞれの特徴やこれがダメでこう触ると喜ぶなど説明があり、よかったです。 朝食前に時間があるので、その時間にも猫ちゃん達のところに行けるといいなぁと思いましたが、猫ちゃん達も休む時間がないといけないですもんね… 帰りは最後に入り口のところで記念に写真を撮って下さいました。ありがとうございました。 また機会があれば行きたいです
- Jenny (10/5): - Traditional Japanese hotel. Well accommodating and nice hosts.
- Tsz Ching (10/5): 舒適 - 民宿主人很有禮貌、民宿以貓做主題、有貓房可以和貓貓玩樂。房間整潔舒適但房內只有洗手間，沒有浴室，如洗澡需要去溫泉。早餐好吃，需額外加購。
- ともみ (10/5): - とても楽しい旅をありがとうございました。 ニャンズたちとの触れ合い癒される旅となりました。宿の方もとても良かったです。また伺いたいと思える笑猫の宿でした。^_^
- Trace (10/5): - This place was so cute and so much fun! It was a very relaxing weekend thanks to the staff and the cats. The establishment is cash only and you pay ¥1,000 yen per day for cat cafe access. Each morning your cat treats are restocked and you are left with a little snack as well to enjoy while playing with the cats. I will admit, the road to the hotel is a little rough, but that is bo flaw to the establishment. The staff are very kind, attentive, and accomodating. The room was also spacious and beautiful. I hope one day I may go back.
- JAEYEON (10/5): 최고의 료칸, 최고의 사람들 - 너무 좋았어요. 다음에도 갈 수 있다면 장기간 숙박하고 싶습니다. 고양이들은 정말 최고였습니다. (비록 고양이들은 저를 안 좋아했지만, 보는걸로도 행복했습니다.)
- Edoardo (10/5): - Very nice owners, clean structure with private onsens. It's a bit outside Yufuin so it's very recommended if you have a car. Nice room, a bit expensive compared to a similar structure. You will appreciate many aspects of the structure if you're a cat lover.
- SANGIL (10/5): - Good
- Erik (10/5): - Incredibly beautiful garden house with cats and private onsen. Very clean and quiet. Wonderful staff
- Bohyeok (10/5): - 정말 예쁘고 쉬기 좋은 곳입니다 감성을 챙기시는 분이면 더더욱 좋은 숙소입니다. 프라이빗 노천탕과 거의 항상 사용할 수 있는 내부 온천도 너무 좋았어요 다음에 또 오고 싶은 숙소는 처음입니다. 고양이도 너무 귀여워욬ㅋㅋㅋ 사장님 서비스가 너무 좋으시고, 체크 아웃 후 역까지 태워주셔서 너무 감사합니다
- seunghyung (10/5): 아주 좋아요. - 아름다운 호텔, 따스한 온천, 편안한 공간, 맛있는 아침과 운영자님의 친절함이 가득한 곳.
- makoto (10/5): - 凄く親切で丁寧です。また行きたいです。
- Lok Ting (10/5): 超級推薦的好旅館 - 旅館主人十分友善親切，不厭其煩地對向每個入住的人講解，房間整潔整齊。溫泉有分室內和室外，每次只可以一組人使用，有私人風呂感。室內溫泉也很漂亮，有落地大玻璃可欣賞窗外景觀。喵喵們很可愛，好想有多點時間跟他們玩！
- ?? (10/5): - 대박 좋습니다 야외 온천도 좋았고 저녁도 일본 가정식으로 정갈하게 나왔습니다 맛있었고 직원분이 너무 친절하셔요 고양이들도 귀엽고 숙소 뷰도 좋습니다 조용조용 하고 깔끔합니다
- Terra (10/5): - 第二次入住笑貓，旅館夫婦友善的接待，耐心的講解住宿期間的留意的事項～由於是民宿改造，所以房間不多，但我就是喜歡這種悠閑寧靜，可以放鬆身心泡湯，更重要是可以在住宿期間和7隻可愛的貓咪互動，誠意推介～
- Chun-Kuei (10/5): 美好的貓咪溫泉民宿體驗 - 這是一個傳統日式民宿，報到時有專人提行李、發送合適尺寸的浴衣以及拖鞋，連房客的鞋子都由服務生存放，溫泉民宿內建貓咖啡廳，但不會有貓打擾居住或睡眠。 房間是日式榻榻米地板，除了傳統拉門之外，還有一道帶鎖的木門保持隱私及安全，由於民宿有溫泉浴池，所以房內並沒有浴室，應該是傳統日式建築改建而成。 貓咖啡廳使用者付費（¥1000/人），時間及次數不限，時段為每日1700-2200以及隔日0800-1000，使用費包含一顆巧克力、一塊餅乾及一杯咖啡（也有一個裝少量貓食的小盒子，以供互動）。 首次進入貓咖啡廳時，會有服務生解說每一隻貓的名字、個性以及互動方式，環境整潔沒有異味，貓咪很溫順乖巧，感覺很療癒放鬆。 如有預訂用餐，晚餐時間為1900，地點在一樓的餐廳內，餐點是鎮上日式料理店的鐵板地雞套餐，分量及口味適中；早餐可以選擇時間（0700、0800、0900），地點一樣是一樓餐廳，是日式傳統早餐，餐點美味。 浴室分為兩間室內溫泉浴池以及一個戶外溫泉浴池，三個浴池有隔間牆所以互相不影響使用；室內浴池使用時間不限、次數不限，戶外浴池因為保障房客都能使用，僅限一個小時；兩種浴池使用前都要到櫃檯登記領取吹風機，並由服務生帶領前往使用。 登記退房時，服務生會拿房客的鞋子擺放在玄關，協助提行李到門口後，由服務生引導至門口長椅上合影留念。 整體而言十分推薦，如果有時間建議住宿兩晚，可以更完整地體驗當地生活，也能更悠閒地充分享受溫泉或是貓咪的療癒。
- JINJU (10/5): - 정말 좋아요 온천 이용도 기다린 적 없이 바로바로 이용 가능했고 물 온도도 적당해서 좋았습니다 직원분들이 정말 친절하셨고 고양이카페를 이용하지않아도 창문을 통해 볼 수 있었고 고양이들이 매우 귀여웠습니다! 다만 오래된 목조건축이기 때문에 방음이 잘 안되었고 방 안에 샤워실이 없는 것이 불편할 순 있습니다 그러나 다른 모든 것들에 만족하므로 추천드립니다!
- DAEHYUN (10/5): 최고 숙소 가성비 짱!!! - 너무너무너무 좋았어요. 개인 욕탕도 진짜 최고!!!! 고양이 카페도 넘 좋아요ㅠㅠ
- Ka (8/5): - Staff is very nice and helpful. The environment was full of cat’s pattern. Cats are always seen and they are lovely. I like this hotel and will recommend to my friends. Nice place and beautiful scenery.
- MINHOON (10/5): - 진짜 너무 좋았어요. 사장님, 스탭분들도 친절하시고 고양이 진짜 귀여웠습니다. 다음에 또 방문할게요~~
- Maggie (10/5): - Staff is very polite and helpful, always full of smile. Cat's cafe is really good, Onsen is nice. I would definitely wanna come back next time!
- PO-TING (10/5): - nice
- Junho (10/5): - 고양이가 너무 귀엽고 조용하고 온천도 좋고 진짜 친절하시고 좋아요
- SeungHwan (10/5): 첫 온천 료칸 - 내 인생 첫 온천여행의 숙소로서 너무 기억에 남는 료칸입니다. 고급 전통 료칸은 아니지만, 정겨운 숙소 분위기와 시설들 귀여운 고양이들, 피로를 풀어주는 개인 온천과 야외온천은 정말 소중한 추억을 만들어주었어요! 기회가 된다면 꼭 다시 가고싶은 숙소입니다.
- WAI MAN (10/5): - 員工非常親切，很幫忙，用心講解。 很放鬆舒適的住宿體驗～ 7隻貓貓很可愛～
- Dekel (10/5): - Excellent ryokan with super friendly staff, we really enjoyed our stay. The cats are cute and well taken care of, the baths are great and the room is pleasant. There is one caveat that needs to be mentioned: This is a cat-*themed* ryokan centered around the cats in the cat cafe that it hosts. The cafe is located inside the ryokan but acts as a separate entity and requires separate payment onsite. Very recommended for cat lovers! :3
- jo (10/5): - 모든것이 다 좋았음
- HEEYEON (10/5): - 사장
- Jungho (10/5): - 정말 친절하시고 좋았습니다. 조식, 석식 모두 좋았고 특히 조식은 직접만들어주셔서 좋았습니다. 단점은 걸어서 가기 정말힘들고, 주변에 편의점이나 마트가 없어요. 사장님이 퇴실할때 역까지 태워주셔서 정말감사햇습니다.
- seoyeong (10/5): 꼭 다시 가고 싶은 숙소 1위. - 너무너무 좋았습니다. 12박 일본여행 중 가장 좋았던 숙소였습니다. 너무 친절한 주인분들과 정말 너무 귀여워서 있는 내내 탄성이 나오는 귀여운 인테리어들. 사진도 감성 대박으로 나오고••• 창밖에는 연기가 나오는 화산들이 보이는데 그 창밖을 바라보며 마시는 차기는 얼마나 귀엽게요...? 이불도 바닥에서 자는 게 안 느껴지게 폭신하고 일본 숙소들 다 추웠는데
- Hyoseong (10/5): 첫 료칸 - 처음 지내보는 료칸에서의 기억을 아주 좋게 만들어준 곳 직원분들도 친절하시고 시설도 좋다 고양이 카페에 있는 고양이들이 귀여웠다
- HYERIN (10/5): - 직원 분들이 친절하고 퇴실할때는 유후인역까지 데려다 주셔가지고 편하게 갔어요 밥도 맛있어고 고양이들도 엄청 기여 웠어요 다만 방음은 그렇게 잘되는 편은 아니에요 커플 분들은 주의좀 ^^
- Mo Yi (10/5): This local style hotel with cat is so great - It's a GREAT hotel, staff is helpful and friendly. It's a great moment to stay here and play with all cats (Wara is the most lovely one~). Will consider to come again next time.
- Yuko (10/5): - 温泉も掛け流しでゆったり入れてとても良かったです。
- Verified traveler (10/5): サービスも温泉も良くてリピートしたい宿 - 少し早く到着してしまったのですが、部屋に入れて下さり、大変助かりました。朝は駅まで送って下さり、サービスも良く清潔感があって猫のモチーフで統一感もあり、一人泊まりでも楽しめます。温泉も掛け流しで貸し切りできるのが良かったです。また泊まりたいです。
- syaomao (10/5): - 2度目の利用。とても良い。部屋は清潔で朝食は少しづつ様々な料理がある。猫のいるスペースも清潔でゆったりできる。お風呂が貸し切りなのもうれしい。
- コンターイ (8/5): - 思ったよりお風呂は良かった。 飲み物とかもう少しあればね
- MM (10/5): - 猫好きならとても喜ぶはず。
- Yasuko (10/5): Cat people reunite! - Where can I start? B&B and cat cafe and hot spring all in one? I was truly in heaven. Cats and owners are true winners. Away from main traffic, stores and restaurants. All I heard was local train goes by every hour or so. Cute sweets and well balanced breakfast. I really didn't want to leave.
- SC (10/5): - Prefect for all cat-lovers! Wonderful services, foods, facilities, onsen, environment, cats and staff. It’s the warmest and best ryokan i have ever stayed. If i visit Yufu again, i must stay there for few more days to visit the cats and staff and to enjoy every moment again.
- KAZUNARI (10/5): 癒されまくり - 猫好きには大満足の宿です。次の宿泊もお願いしようと思います。
- Verified traveler (8/5): - サービス、設備共に素晴らしかったです。特に、急なお願いにも関わらず観光街まで送迎いただいて助かりました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 猫の管理がしっかりして、大変癒される時間を過ごすことができました。
- Verified traveler (8/5): 와라네코 료칸후기 - 온천도 좋고 굉장히 친절하세요! 다만 방음이 전혀 안됩니다..새벽에 깼네요
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Kyytipalevelu oli suuri plussa ottaen huomioon majoituspaikan etäisen sijainnin. Olisin toivonut, että hintaan olisi sisältynyt yksi vierailu kissakahvilassa ilmaiseksi..
- Tsz Shan (10/5): 超好的民宿 - 非常之好的一次住宿，員工非常之有耐性幫忙及解答我們的需要，下次一定會再入住
- Verified traveler (6/5): - 서비스, 친절, 청결 등은 만족스러웠지만, 위치가 시내에서 너무 먼거리에 있어, 불편하고, 주위에는 논밭밖에 없음.. 온천이용도, 많은 제한을 두고 있어 다소불편함. 고양이 천국...
- JoyTang (10/5): - All services are very good, cats very cute. Handmade breakfast very good taste and delicious. Thanks
- SUNGMOK (10/5): Very good, cozy ryokan. Totally recommendable - It's been pleasure to stay here 3days. Staffs were very kind and nice, information brochures were provided in different languages. Cats were so adorable. Hotspring is private for family and 1hour use was enough to enjoy. Breakfast was neat and good. Room was very clean with clean bed sheets. I will definitely visit this ryokan again when I come to Yufuin.
