8,3/10 Excellent - Based on 216 reviews
A haven of serenity nestled in the heart of Oita Prefecture, Yufuin Onsen Hasuwa Inn invites you to immerse yourself in the very essence of Japan. Promising tranquility, its hot springs reveal moments of bliss, while the Japanese gardens, sprinkled with stones and greenery, tell a silent poem. Here, every detail breathes harmony: from the non-smoking rooms bathed in natural light to the simple but delicate gesture of tea served in a soothing calm. The bicycles available add a touch of quiet adventure to this peaceful haven.
Intimacy and tradition unite in its rooms, where the tatami floor bears the imprint of ancestral craftsmanship. The futons, carefully rolled, are an invitation to peaceful sleep, lulled by the softness of the surrounding nature. A simple teapot, a discreet refrigerator, and private toilets complete the space soberly. Each room embodies a refuge where Japanese simplicity is combined with discreet comfort, conducive to rest for the mind and body.
Conclude the day with a delicate meal, served in one of the two available restaurants. From the hearty breakfast to the timeless flavors of dinner, the culinary journey extends the sensory experience. Nearby, the streets of Yufu also reveal gastronomic treasures waiting to be discovered. With each step, this ryokan in Yufu whispers a hymn to the sweetness of life.
