Perfect getaway

Beautiful Ryokan with very friendly and helpful service. We had a room with both tatami and western beds (raised off the ground) which worked very well for the elders in our group that weren't used to sleeping on the ground. No shower/bath in the room as the expectation is to use the public baths (or private family baths which are first come first serve basis). Our group had no issues accessing the private family baths which we preferred. The family onsen was MUCH larger than expected. The dressing room was spacious as well. We enjoyed both in the evening and morning before checkout. The rooms themselves were very comfortable and spacious. Public baths were also clean and beautiful. The meals were also a great experience (both Dinner and Breakfast). They were able to accommodate our group of 9 into a large room and went above and beyond to communicate/explain all the dishes which were all beautifully and deliciously prepared. The view outside was amazing as the Ryokan sat on top of a hill looking down to the town. It's a bit of a walk down to the shopping area (bit over 15 mins) but this meant this location was very quiet and serene. We loved it and would recommend to anyone.

The air-conditioning in the room was insufficient, leaving the room fairly cold, especially the toilet room. Amenities in bathroom were not ample, and there was no housekeeping after 10pm. I had to brush my teeth without toothpaste that night. Food was not amazing. I was expecting a better experience with the price I paid.

A suggestion for the hotel to consider: to implement a system for guests to know whether the family bath/onsens are available. Otherwise guests have to keep physically walking to the onsens to check availability. Also the signage to the entrance of the hotel could be clearer (it was a little confusing for a non-Japanese speaking guest) as there seemed to be 2 entrances.

It was a great opportunity to experience Japanese vibes and cuisine. The only issue I had was the cleanliness. The humidifier had terrible mold and the public bath wasn’t clean. It wasn’t even as clean as cheaper business hotels.

Enjoyable stay.

Comfortable stay at Baien resort and walking distance 10 mins to the lake and shopping trip. Took a taxi from Yufuin station and cost JPY800. We enjoyed our stroll and admiring the autum foliage while walking out to the lake. It has 2 nice private onsens and 1 separate public onsen for male and female. Dinner and breakfast were delicious, staff are friendly. Recommended and enjoyable stay.

The hotel is clean and the staff is very nice. One more special point is the staff would bring us to the facilities instead of just showing the map. And, my package included half board, they also introduce the food no matter in dinner or breakfast, so considerated. Highly recommend!
