Kusayane no Yado Ryunohige

Excellent Ryokan with Kaiseki Pretty Clean Hot springs. kind staffs. excellent Food. stayed 1st grade Wagu bundle. 2 tumbs up recommended to stay. but only 1 day can stay.

A hot spring inn overlooking the majestic Mt. Yufu, the symbol of Yufuin. There are 10 rooms in total, including 5 detached detached buildings and 5 separate buildings in the forest. All rooms have a semi-open-air bath with natural hot spring water, 3 of which have an open-air bath. The view of Mt. Yufu, bathed in the morning sun and evening sun in the clear air, will soothe your soul. And above all, the warm hospitality with its attentive attention to detail will soothe your soul.

This was by far the best Ryokan experience we had in all aspects and the price reflects it (T_T). We got the room with a view of Mt. Yufu and it was amazing to soak in the onsen while watching the sunset and sunrise. This seems to be a very small Ryokan, with maybe 10-12 isolated rooms. The kaiseki here was our favorite of the 4 ryokans we stayed at during our trip. I was introduced to hojicha gelato here... my mouth is watering thinking about it. The rooms are very spacious, with separate areas for sleeping, watching tv while drinking/eating, and watching tv being more cozy. There were two filtered water dispensers, and several AC units in different parts of the room. There was also an indoor onsen in case you wanted to use that. Our favorite hostess of our entire stay was here and I wish I had gotten her name, but she was so friendly and accommodating! There's really nothing to do outside the ryokan, and you're paying a pretty penny, so enjoy it!
