Hoteles en Ibusuki

Ventajas: The service was incredible. The care shown was humbling. Nothing was too much. Was the perfect place to relax and enjoy southern Japanese food and service.

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: We have stayed at Yurian for 2 nights and absolutely loved it! Everyone was so nice to us, helpful and friendly that it made our stay very special. Facilities are so beautiful(and very clean), that photos do not do them justices at all! Seriously, the hotel is one of the most stylish and chic I I have ever seen. Location is a bit remote, but perfect for relaxing stay in the nature, and then it is easy to get by taxi and there is even a car from the hotel that can bring you to the sand baths/station/other places. At the first day we were told there was a car that will bring us to the sand baths, it turned out the car was not there that day, but they ordered us a taxi and paid for it themselves, which was a great gesture! Food is another highlight - we had half board and it was absolutely delicious! And different every day. We will absolutely be back in autumn!

Ventajas: Sand bath inside hotel

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: The sand baths, the spring baths and the evening restaurants. The Italian restaurant is outstanding. Staff were very attentive.

Desventajas: Our room was dated. The outside pool wasn’t open. Ibusuki itself is going through the doldrums.

Ventajas: Great Onsen; Japanese room with sea view was great. Great food

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: The baths were great. Indoor, outdoor, over two floors. Very clean. We booked for two nights. On the second day after everyone checked out (10am) and before new guests arrive (3pm, but check-in process means later), we had the baths to ourselves - excellent! The amenities provided (facial wash, toner, moisturizer, all sorts of creams) was of a bigger range and better quality than other onsens. Museum was worth going to.

Desventajas: - extra payment for sandbath - extra payment for drinks during dinner (juice and soft drinks, not alcohol, and staff did not tell us that we could decline and just have plain water) - the japanese dinner was too bland. Pretty to look at, but was very disappointed with the taste. We've had better kaiseki dinners at other ryokans. We opted for Italian dinner for the next night, it was much better.

Ventajas: Quiet and relaxing

Desventajas: A bit dated

Ventajas: Main onsen is massive and magnificent! Sand bath experience was memorable. Kaiseki meals were well-organized and excellent!

Desventajas: Rooms were stuffy as air-conditioning system has been turned off for season. Unable to open windows due to insects. Hotel helped by providing a fan, which helped, but wasn’t totally satisfactory.

Ventajas: Good dinner and breakfast. Sand bath and onsen is wonderful.

Ventajas: Excelentes el onsen y la comida del restaurante. ¡Perfecto para descansar! Muy recomendable para ir en pareja. Y muy cómodo el trasporte que brindan desde y hacia la estación de tren.

Desventajas: Older and limited items at gift shop.

Ventajas: Hot Spring with good Sea view, Free car park, nice staff

Ventajas: the rooftop onsen pool

Desventajas: the soya sauce smell in my room. The smell in my room was like a big bottle of soya sauce had been spilled in the room before I checked in.

Ventajas: Everything

Desventajas: Nothing

Ventajas: Great onsen withe views Good meals with fresh ingredient Nice staff

Ventajas: Great hospitality. The place makes you feel like home. The staffs are helpful. Room is clean and comfy. Open air hot spring is great and hot!

Desventajas: The private hot spring is not hot enough.

Ventajas: Personalised service and the staff catered for our dietary requirements

Desventajas: The futon is a bit short for one of us who is 180cm tall.

Ventajas: Location is good. Welcoming green tea serving was a credit. Overall good service.

Desventajas: Room is too small for a group of 4, despite with 2 twin beds and tatami area. Onsen is not up to expectation.

Ventajas: Excellent service staff who were very helpful and accommodating. The food was excellent too.

Ventajas: Wonderful place. Hosts welcoming and very helpful - even gave us a lift to the station in the morning. Comfortable traditional room and lovely Onsen bath. Diolch yn fawr!

Ventajas: Very nice owner and staf. The hot sandbath in Isubuski is great. We Walker the Olle trail around Mount Kaimon. This was pretty.

Desventajas: The location was rather far from the center (but the owner was very helpfull and took us from and to the trainstation).

Ventajas: The lady-housekeeper was very charming and kind. Two onsens in the house. Upgraded us to a bigger room, free of charge.

Desventajas: The location is inconvenient when not traveling by car. The owner picks you up when you arrive and drops you off when you leave, every other time it's a 15min walk to get to town center/restaurants (20min to the sand bath). Refused to cook a vegetarian meal for us.

Ventajas: Free shuttle from Ibusuki station even outside check-in time window. Good communication with the staff. 30mn away by foot to sand bath. Staff is very nice and make your stay pleasant. The dinner is prepared by owner and the black pork cutlet a nice choice.

Ventajas: I was happy to have stayed here nice reception when I arrived. informative on where to go and eat. and when I climbed the Volcano it was no problem to use the shower after check out time.

Desventajas: Not much all good for me.

Ventajas: The incredible good humour of the hostess and the helpfulness of her and her husband. He even jumped in his car to catch up with the bus we just missed! The only time on our trip we had a Japanese breakfast. They have TWO private baths with natural hot water. It is in a very quiet location next to the river.

Desventajas: The futons were the hardest we have had, and so were the pillows. It is far from everywhere: 1.5km from the station, 2 from the sandbath.

Ventajas: Owners are very helpful. Free shuttle from/to train stations. Quick email response. Quiet neighborhood.

Desventajas: Location. A bit far from the train station.

Ventajas: The staff were super friendly and helpful. They drove us to the sand baths and the station, and made great dinner and beach recommendations - the places only locals go. Plus the boss speaks good English. Breakfast was tasty and the price was very reasonable for a two- person room. We didn't try the onsen, but the showers were great after a day at the beach.

Desventajas: As stated in the description, the bathrooms are shared and the beds are futons, as in many traditional ryokan. If you don't like that, you might not like this place. I liked the traditional style, personally. Also, our room smelled a little musty.

Ventajas: The Japanese breakfast was good and the staff were very helpful and friendly. We feel that the hotspring water content (minerals) for the onsen was the best during our travel. The Japanese futon beds are very comfortable and clean.

Desventajas: The toilet water sink in our hotel room does not supply hot water. It is not fun brushing our teeth and washing our face with cold water in the morning.

Ventajas: Hotel staff were extremely helpful and polite. They were very customer-oriented. The room was spacious and clean and beddings were comfy. Hot spring public bath though small was nice.

Desventajas: Nil

Ventajas: The sea view is quite good. Staff are friendly and really helpful.

Desventajas: No shuttle bus between hotel and JR station, need to call taxi. No skin care products provided at changing room. A 3 years old kid is also charged 990 yens for breakfast, not reasonable.

Ventajas: Larger room than a normal ryokan hotel in this price range. Nice outdoor bath.

Desventajas: Only one elevator for the entire building. Dinner display attractive but food uninspiring. Bus load of Chinese who are the most inconsiderate tourist in the world with their loud talking. We shared a floor with a group of them and they were shouting at each other down the hall even in the morning and late at night.

Ventajas: When I arrived, the staff was coming out the hotel to welcome me. Thank you! I was so surprised. The staffs are nice and polite. It is the best service compared with others. The dinner and breakfast are delicious and a lot of choices. The spa is v nice, I saw the sea on the morning and stars at night. The room with sea view is v beautiful, clean , large and comfortable.The facilities are well and satisfied. Free coffee on 1/floor. Free bus shuttle to hot sand. I hope I will come back!

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: The hotel has an indoor/outdoor hot spring bathing facility. It is free to use. Shuttle bus service to hot sand baths.

Ventajas: excellent staff always wearing a smile, spacious clean room and comfortable beds, good half board meals, nice onsen on-site, will come back again.

Desventajas: All standard rooms with tatami area are facing the back (no sea-view)

Ventajas: Staff was very helpful and friendly. Room was very clean, comfortable and spacious. Breakfast was so good. The view from their garden and restaurant is beautiful.

Desventajas: Nothing.

Ventajas: Very friendly staffs. Nice view. Good breakfast. One of the best onsens in Kyushu in my view. Overall very cosy surroundings. Underrated hotel.

Desventajas: Little bit old facilities.

Ventajas: Value for money. Near to Sand Bath Center but a bit far from the Ibusuki Station to walk.

Desventajas: I was not able to enjoy communication with the owner couple. They don't speak English and my Japanese is very bad as well.

Ventajas: The hosts are nice. They offer nice green tea for us when we first arrived at the place. The room is large with comfortable futon.

Desventajas: The place is a bit hard to notice at night.

Ventajas: Nice minshuku managed by an old Japanese man. People speak only japanese so Google translation is helpful (WiFi available). Good cooking prepared by the wife of the owner. Close to sand baths. Only cash accepted.

Ventajas: Nice minshuku managed by an old man. People speak only japanese so Google translation is helpful (WiFi available). Close to sand baths.

Ventajas: Nice place, Minshuku style and directly on the sand baths

Ventajas: Family-stay Ryokan with typical traditional room design in private house next to Ibusuki sand bath. Warm welcome, wish had been able to talk more. Free pick-up and return service from/to station. Bus stop is immediately round the corner in front of the sand bath.

Desventajas: Not much facilities in Ibusuki, even less in this area next to sand bath. Compared to expensive Ibusuki hotels this is a fair priced offer.

Ventajas: Everything was just perfect

Ventajas: The place is generally clean. For a day stay is alright.

Desventajas: The owner was not grumbling in Japanese which made me very not pleasant and comfortable. There are many many house rules! The owner keeps checking on us when we were in the house.

Ventajas: The manager is quite a character and makes this guesthouse unforgettable. The many rules are real fun and, though they must be applied very seriously, aften several weeks in Japan this is no big deal.

Desventajas: A little bit far from the JR station but much closer to the hot sand bath. There are not so many restaurants in the neighbourhood.

Ventajas: - great facility - very tidy - owner was quite helpful and spoke good English - cols mineral tub in bathroom

Desventajas: - quite a walk from the station but close to spa area - owner was helpful but had too many rules for literally everything - makes you feel stupid, runs through his rulebook and repeats it - bathing only between 5pm and midnight

Ventajas: Very friendly host (with some rules) Very helpful Goodlocation (close to the famous 'Sand Bath' )

Ventajas: As I was the only guest in the entire hostel I can not comment on how "noisy" or "comfortable" it would have been with other guests around. This is a normal house with all facilities closely connected and so you need to have fellow travellers that are behaving in order to have a good rest, but I feel that with the instructions given by the host this should not pose any problems. Rooms are spacious, kitchen has all you need (you need to cook as there are hardly any restaurant options nearby but you can walk to a huge supermarket at 1.5km) host offered to take me there but my feet were ok for walking. Its straight next to the sandbath place which is a nice experience, its a bit of a hike to the train but even that is doable on foot ! Beds come with curtains, light and powerplug. Free water coffee tea and a lovely japanes style livingroom. The host gives you a run trough of the do's and dont's inside the hostel and these are quite normal.

Desventajas: The bed was a bit too hard for me and so I had to use my airbed to be able to sleep on my side.

Ventajas: The man who owns this inn is a very caring and diligent guy! When I first got to the property, he came off as a bit grumpy, stern, and overbearing. My predisposition was also influenced by reviews I had read on this website, but this quickly changed as I got to know him better. He went out of his way on multiple occasions to make me feel at home and even well-fed! Others said he has too many rules, but I saw that he was more so making sure guests could all live in a clean and practical way. He cares about the inn and keeps everything in a clean and functional state. It's only natural that he would want guests to help keep it that way. The inn is a little less than a 5 minute walk from the most popular sand onsen. There is a lovely walk way right along the beach that you can take there as well! I recommend bringing a couple towels with you so you don't have to pay the 200JPY towel fee at the onsen if you want to rent them.

Desventajas: Parking is 500JPY cash for anyone with a car, even if you tell him in advance. There are also a very limited number of parking spots on the premises so if you have a bigger group with multiple cars, make sure you let him know ahead of time!!

Ventajas: Los baños de arena y la cena

Desventajas: Que sigan discriminando a las personas con tatuajes

Ventajas: Nice sand bath.

Ventajas: nice staff, spacious clean room with beautiful sea view, good half board meals.

Ventajas: Large room with a sea view and balcony

Desventajas: No shower in the room!

Ventajas: Nice view and location.

Desventajas: Relatively unfriendly staffs. Onsen is a bit disappointing (not excellent, but just "not bad"). Dinner/breakfast disappointing as well given the high price level.

Ventajas: The hotel room is excellent ! Morning can see the sunrise ! Tried the foot bath during sunset ！

Desventajas: We tried the sand bath but quite a bit disappointed as it’s not hot enough ...

Ventajas: Very good facilities and feel extremely comfortable especially stay at the room.

Desventajas: If dinner can be more special and feel more Japanese style, that would be great. Yes right now is already very good.

Ventajas: Excellent experience at this hotel！

Ventajas: Requested Veggie meals and they prepared lots of variety that made me feel satisfied! Much more than expectation!! Thanks Koran no Yu Kinkouro!

Desventajas: The facilities is a bit old and under construction. but still ok and clean.

Ventajas: The room and facilities were more beautiful and well-thought through than I’d imagined, and for Japan that’s saying a lot. They were very attentive, the amenities and little touches were wonderful, and the hotel decor is the perfect wood/tatami/greenery/Japanese style that I love. The food was fantastic.

Desventajas: I wish I’d hired a car because the area around it looked so good for driving. But that’s not the hotel’s fault and they made it very easy with their free shuttle buses to the train station, their very helpful maps, and Ibusuki tourism has arranged a great hop on hop off bus service which I used.

Ventajas: The room is spacious

Ventajas: Room was ok but did not match the outrageous price. There is absolutely nothing that would justify the price.

Desventajas: Location is on the mainroad. Lobby: worn plastic sofas. Hallways: full of stains on the carpet. Dinner: mediocre. Breakfast: an insult! That kind of breakfast you get at any fastfood restaurant for 1000 yen. An absolut no go. We reserved for two nights, left after one.

Ventajas: Outside onsen, though very small, charming and great for private booked use. Good local cuisine breakfast. Shuttle driver very courteous and thoughtful.

Desventajas: The price was very high considering the size of room for three people and not en-suite, though with toilet. The hotel needs modernising and redecorating, long overdue. A much more comprehensive shuttle service should be available, given the remote location and price of stay. Only one restaurant (solid food) nearby, otherwise taxi required.

Ventajas: Very comfortable room. Superb dinner was served. Staff exceptionally helpful and friendly.

Desventajas: I had no vehicle and Koran a long way out of Kagoshima. Had to rely on hotel transport to get to and from hotel and to and from station.

Ventajas: I stayed 5 nights and enjoyed dinner every day with different menu. The view from my room was so nice and nice hot spring, so that I could relax after hard work day.

Desventajas: Far from city center, but there is a bus service.

Ventajas: The scene

Desventajas: Unreasonable charges and not mentioned it before my booking. Need maintain the hillside facilities, I.e. there’s a place for foot hot spring along the hill side but it was abandoned. Even the walking path are all covered with grasses, can’t walk.

Ventajas: Super rotenburo with the lake view. The stuff are very very kind. The beautiful unagi lake is 5 minutes walk.

Desventajas: Toilets are old

Desventajas: The toilet smells because it is some sort of hole on the ground so there’s no water staying in the toilet to prevent the odor coming out. The room has cigarette smells and the walls are very thin. We heard everything of our neighbors

Ventajas: Breakfast not much choose

Desventajas: Facilities are a bit old.

Desventajas: Amazing people who accepted us eventhough we made a mistake of booking 1 day later and since webooked a room including dinner and obviosly they didn't prepare , they drove with us to a nearby restuarant so that we will not be lost. Thanks again to this wonderful people.

Ventajas: Amazing staff! He would help you with anything! Adorable place near lake far away from city. Best place to just relax. Bus only few times per day, and till station about 4km. But this terrain is very cozy and beautiful, so go by legs here, you will have many emotions!

Ventajas: Lovely property. Very quiet scenic location. Super onsen. Very friendly staff. Both meals were excellent. If you are looking for a very Japanese experience, this is the place to go. You need to best in mind that this a simple local Minshuku. Communication in English is difficult so you will get much more out of it if you speak some Japanese. The walks around the lake are great. You need to check in before 6 pm and you need to make sure they do an evening meal. There are no restaurants nearby.

Desventajas: There is a 6am wake up announcement for the entire village it seems and breakfast is early too. If you like to lie in, that could be a challenge.

Ventajas: The area itself is a small, quite quaint village by a volacanic crater with a lake, pleasant to walk around and there are public baths and a place to cook your own food over volcanic steam. There are a few small things to se in the village, like the statuettes of dogs. This is a traditional minshuku. It is old and therefore the rooms are small and old-fashioned, but full of charm. The welcome and explanation was comprehensive and we managed get the vital information despite our lack of Japanese. The landlady was very pleasant and helpful. The rotenburo was great. The indoor onsen was old-fashioned and had no showers - as it should be!

Desventajas: The room was rather small for us with our two large suitcases. They do not accept cards and we could only pay cash. No problem, but it would have been nice to know this in advance. This is Booking.com's fault for failing to inform us.

Ventajas: beds are little bit hard n pillow not so comfortable

Desventajas: the hotel little bit too old

Ventajas: Location is good

Desventajas: It is very dark at car park pedestrian path, it is very dangerous walking to hotel at night even just 5 mins

Ventajas: Room is big and onsen view and quality are fine. Kids love there so much since the hotel has game center at basement.

Ventajas: We like the most the swimming pool with many different slides

Desventajas: Hot spring is a long walk from the hotel room
