This is a paradise on earth. The service, the location, all the onsen available deserve a full 10 vote. I lost my mobile on the bus directed to the hotel and all the staff made their best to contact the transport company, and the day after I received my mobile! 10, 10, 10!

The staff was friendly, and I had an enjoyable experience at the onsen. The bed was extremely comfortable, allowing for a great night's sleep. My skin felt wonderful after using the onsen. The public onsen was also impressive, providing a chance to enjoy the hot natural springs under the moon and stars, with the autumn leaves falling gently around. It was very nice. Additionally, the restaurant served delicious food/drink.

Excellent japanese style Hotel with friendly staff. We arrived to Kurokawa by bus, were contacted by the Hotel well before hand, and Hotel staff was waiting for us to take our luggage to the Hotel for us by car. We also got a ride to the bus after check-out. Not all of the staff was fluent in english but they were eager to help whenever needed. Onsen pass can be purchased from the Hotel lobby and they can give recommentations of nearby onsens. The hotel's own onsen was really nice, including both in- and -out-door baths and a cold bath for cooling off especially after sauna. In February we enjoyed onsen with light snow. During summer or autumn, the scenery is surely even more stunning. In addition to men's/women's baths, the Hotel has three small private/family onsen baths that can be reserved from the lobby even in the early morning hours. Sauna in the onsen smelled a pit feird. That is, said by a Finn - but onsens are the THING here. Really good breakfast and dinner! The room had plenty of space and a really nice atmosphere.

    Shinmeikan is a truly amazing ryokan/ onsen. The whole building just oozes authenticity. Great tatami style rooms overlooking the river, super friendly staff who will help you with all your needs. Great onsen baths, especially the cave bad is spectacular. Dinner and breakfast are equally high quality and display a variety of Japanese cuisine. Absolute perfect place if you want to experience traditional Japanese onsen style ryokan.

    Oku no yu was great! The staff picked us up from the bus station and dropped us off. The facilities had a public and many private onsens to try. The staff helped us set up our futons and there were yukatas for us in the room. We had breakfast there and it was very yummy. Overall, great experience and would recommend!

    We had an unforgettable family stay at a traditional Ryokan in Japan. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the staff, who made us feel right at home. The serene atmosphere of the Ryokan, with its beautiful tatami rooms , and peaceful environment, provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. Our family enjoyed the delicious kaiseki meals served in Ryokan and loved relaxing in the private onsen. We highly recommend this Ryokan to families looking for a unique and authentic Japanese experience.

    The cave onsen was a unique experience. They have private indoor n outdoor hot springs for booking. The English speaking female non-japanese staff was very friendly and pleasant. The ryokan also sent us to the bus stop when they learnt we are taking the bus to Hakata. Dinner was served around a fire place, giving a warm, fuzzy feel.
