It’s clean and feel warmly welcomed during the stay.
The deco is not fancy but you can feel the hotel is preparing food with their all hearts.
The private hot spring is so good.
Truly recommend it.

Best Hotel to stay in Yufuin
Excellent hotel in Yufuin! Location is mins walk away from Kinrin Lake so you can enjoy the excellent morning view. Hotel room is clean and comfortable, and the private onsens are really great for relaxing. Dinner and breakfast are really must try in my opinion. Staffs are all very friendly and helpful too.

The staff is very nice and the location is lovely. I got a free gift (a small pouch) when I checked in. My room was spacious and had a kotatsu which I really appreciated because it got suddenly cold outside. I also was able to enjoy two really beautiful and relaxing outdoor private baths! Breakfast had an amazing view and was delicious. They even gave me a hot pack when I checked out because it was cold outside. I really like the area and I’ll definitely visit again.

Yufunoirodori Yadoya Oohashi is worth visiting if you’re staying in Yufuin. The staff is polite and helpful, the food is excellent, and the onsen is very comfortable. The room was clean, and it’s just an 8-minute walk to the main street, which is convenient.
