Spa Hotels in Ureshino

The hotel is a bit far away from Ureshino Onsen JR, it takes 20 to 30 minutes to walk, but the hotel itself is well decorated, well-equipped, and has a large bath. There are also many supermarkets and food halls nearby. Hongyan Park is only a 30-minute walk away, making it a good and leisurely place to stay.

The tatami room includes a private bath. There are two large baths for ladies, one indoor and one open-air. It is really comfortable. The breakfast is buffet style. It is about a three or four minute walk from the bus station. The town is very quiet. You can buy souvenirs and other products in the hotel. If you don't want to go out and don't have a meal, you can buy lunch boxes/sandwiches in the hotel. The price is reasonable and delicious. They are made by the hotel restaurant. Go out to eat the famous hot spring tofu and hot spring ice cream, which are delicious!

After booking the hotel, I was hesitant and worried that it would be bad. I was pleasantly surprised when I arrived at the hotel! Everything is better than expected ^_^Small but beautiful! The front desk staff are friendly and attentive. There was a young man from China at the front desk who gave a detailed introduction to the hotel facilities, dinner reservation times and some sightseeing suggestions in Chinese. On Chinese New Year's Eve, I met a Japanese lady at the hotel front desk (who spoke very fluent English) who gave guests free drinks to celebrate the New Year, which made people feel cordial and warm. There are few people in the hotel's hot springs and they are very clean. Basically every time I go, the restaurant is reserved;) Dinner is a major feature of the hotel and worth experiencing. Although the ingredients don't look amazing, they are actually carefully prepared and high-quality ingredients. The cooking method is not very flashy, which is probably the characteristic of Ureshino. I ate every meal until I couldn't finish it. The Saga beef melts in your mouth, the tiny pufferfish is extremely delicious, the crabs are sweet and plump...^_^The soup tofu for breakfast is soft, glutinous and smooth in the mouth, without any beany smell, and the rich bean aroma is unforgettable. The appearance picture of the hotel on Ctrip’s official website is different from the actual one! This is actually the first photo I took of this! Much better than what is shown on the official website! Best hotel for traveling with parents!

I arrived at Ureshino Onsen Station and asked the staff at the information desk to arrange a taxi to the hotel in ten minutes. Ureshino Onsen is conveniently located by the Kyushu Shinkansen. There are only a few businesses in the town. Most of the Japanese-style rooms in the park are very old, but there are a few renovated suites that are very nice. I wanted to upgrade the room but was told that they were all booked. The cheaper rooms are in the lobby, and the more expensive ones are in the private rooms. All the rooms have river views, but the view is average. Breakfast and dinner have tea elements, which are fresh and delicious. The meals are enhanced and sub-items, the service is also warm and thoughtful, and the hot spring water is very slippery. I was given a tea voucher for the newly renovated bar opposite. Although it is free, the service is very thoughtful and formal. It's a pity that I can't drink or I would definitely take care of his business. The tea in the store is good and affordable. The box is small and I only bought two packs. Disadvantages: The room is too old, the tatami smells like pickles, it is inconvenient to sleep on the floor, and there were two power outages, one for dinner, and one time I was locked in the elevator, which was scary. In addition, the outdoor bath has a bad smell. The bougainvillea in the greenhouse next to it is said to be the largest in Japan, but it is actually just a small greenhouse. The hot spring hotels in Ureshino town are all very old. I had booked a night at Sakura Hotel, but when I went over, I saw that the lobby was under construction. Overall, it was not as good as the theme park, so I canceled my plan and went to Nagashima by Shinkansen for a 20-minute ride.

A long-established hot spring hotel, the one-stop-and-two meals are delicious and have the feel of kaiseki cuisine. The hot springs include an underground floor and an open-air hot spring on the 9th floor. The century-old hot spring is well-deserved and highly recommended.

The hotel environment is good, details can be seen in the picture, the overall level of one night and two meals is almost worth the money, only the following two points need to be improved: 1. Understand that it is difficult to recruit local young people and their English level is not enough. There is a Central Asian girl at the front desk of the hotel. Her English level is actually average, but her service ability really needs to be improved. She took the wrong hotel floor plan and introduced it. At the end, she found out that she had to start all over again (can I only start over when I was interrupted by reciting?) When she couldn't express herself in poor English, she didn't think of using a translator at all. I translated it into Japanese and asked her colleagues~ 2. Before going, I had been looking forward to the free loan bath for a long time, but in the end, except for the large baths for men and women, everything was under renovation:-(😭 In addition, dinner was served one by one, and I don’t know if it was not well connected or it was time-consuming to make it on the spot? For several dishes, I pressed the bell to remind them but still waited a long time before they were served.

Drove there. Our room is located first floor with private onsen bath in the room. No shoes are allowed when you first step into the Ryokan. Slippers are provided. Staff are friendly and nice, the room is clean and spacious. Food was typical Japanese breakfast. The private in-house onsen bath was awesome but sadly on the second day, the onsen bath tub started to leak hot spring water from all sides of the bath tub and from the wall and there is no way to stop the water gushing out! As a kind gesture, the manager gave us some private time on the private onsen (require booking)
