Such a charming place. It was enough for us for just a night stay to enjoy all the facilities and services provided at the ryokan. The dinner course and breakfast was spectacular and definitely a unique experience!

The location of this hotel is situated in a quite village. Suitable for those who want to stay in a quiet ambience. A bit obsolete on its building and spa.

료칸 분위기가 너무 좋고, 사람이 많지 않았어서 동굴 온천과 야외 온천도 프라이빗하게 즐길 수 있어서 좋았습니다. 개인탕은 예약이 필요한데, 굳이 예약하지 않아도 괜찮았습니다! 유카타와 게다 양말, 게다도 함께 제공이 되며 석식과 조식도 모두 맛있었습니다. 갈치 파이가 신기했어요ㅎㅎ 그리고 주변 마을이 스즈메의 문단속 배경이 되는 마을이라 너무 예뻤습니다. 공사 중인건 좀 아쉬웠구요. 밤에 거리의 불이 켜졌을 때 등을 주시는데, 이 때 산책을 하는 것도 너무 좋았습니다. 렌트카를 이용하여 찾아가는 데는 큰 무리가 없었습니다!

정말 좋은 경험이었습니다. 일본어, 영어, 한국어 전부 사용해서 의사소통이 잘 되도록 힘써주시는 것이 인상깊었습니다. 매우 친절하시고, 픽업도 저희 시간에 맞춰주시는것은 물론 돌아가는 차편까지 상세하게 알려주셨습니다. 석식은 푸짐하게, 조식은 담백하게 나와 부담없이 즐겼습니다! 방도 사진으로 보는것보다 훨씬 넓습니다 ㅎㅎ 동굴온천, 노천도 분위기 좋게 잘 되어있었고 주변 풍경을 이용해서 사진찍기 좋습니다. 모든 직원분이 기분좋게 맞이해주셔서 기분좋게 왔다 갈 수 있었어요☺️ 감사했습니다.

조용한 온천마을에서 가이세키 요리를 즐길 수 있습니다.
주인 아저씨의 유쾌한 대응이 인상깊었던 곳입니다. 한국어는 못하셨지만 유쾌한 말투와 제스처로 뜻을 알아들을 수 있었습니다. 유후인에서 좀 떨어져 있는 곳인데 유후인이 바글바글했던 것에 비해 여기는 사람이 없는 한적한 곳이라는 것이 장점도 되고 단점도 되는 것 같습니다. 문을 닫은 곳도 꽤 있는 것 같았습니다. 조용한 온천마을을 즐기고 싶다면 추천할만합니다. 가이세키 식사는 풍부했고 기대보다 맛이 좋았습니다. 한국에서 잘 못 느꼈던 독특한 맛을 느꼈는데 요리사의 실력이 뛰어나다고 생각했습니다.

Strong Recommendation.
Ryokan's driver gave me a ride(shuttle service) from Yunohira station to Ryokan. And then I did check-in process. The room I stayed was very Clean. Staffs are very kind and especially, some are able to communicate well in English, so I had no difficulties durimg staying. Meal they serve (dinner on 1st day & breakfast on 2nd day) were delicious. I didn't take my phone while I was in hotspring so I don't have any picture of it, but the exterior bath was FANTASTIC. I strongly recommend you to use exterior bath uf you visit SHIMIZU RYOKAN. If you have some kind of wonder with "Japanese Ryokan", I want you to visit here.
A picture of breakfast. Rice and Miso soup is not on the picture, but staff brought them as I took seat.

just "GREAT"

花合野川沿いにあり、湯平温泉の風情が常に感じられます。大洞窟風呂と露天風呂が格別で大満足でした。お料理も素材と味にこだわられた品々で美味しかったです。旅館のスタッフの感じが良く、快適に過ごせました。車の方は、専用駐車場から近くて便利です。

素晴らしい宿
大きすぎず小さすぎにちょうど良い広さの旅館でした。建物は多少古いかもしれませんが掃除が行き届いており、綺麗な部屋でした。 また温泉も洞窟を使った個性的な温泉で素晴らしかったです。 また食事も非常に美味しく、またこちらからのリクエストにも快く対応頂き助かりました。 リピートします。

服務人員親切、用心,是一家傳統溫泉旅館;距離湯平車站有一段距離,還好旅館可協助接送,但對自駕者影響不大哦!洞窟溫泉是一大賣點……

첫경험~~~료칸
처음가는길. 산속으로 고고. 설레기도하고 궁금하기도 하고 의심도 하고. 그러나 도착 해보니 모든것이 기대 이상 이었슴. 친절하시고 청결하고 음식도 너무 맛있고. 료칸체험 너무 잘 했어요. 주인 아저씨. 따님? 일것 같아요. 너무 친절하세요. 다시 가고 싶은곳 입니다. 대만족
