We checked in late on the day of check-in. First of all, I would like to thank the hotel staff for waiting and explaining.
I'm glad I booked this hotel for this trip. Hot spring hotels are generally not close to the city center, so they are definitely not that convenient. It's about 30 minutes from here to Kagoshima Airport, which I think is acceptable. It takes about 20 minutes to drive to other attractions, such as Mythosato Park, Kirishima Jingu Shrine, etc.
I saw several room types online, including rooms with footbaths, private baths, and family rooms. Since I wanted to soak in the hot springs in the room, I booked a room with a private bath. The whole experience was great, being able to soak in the hot springs before waking up and before going to bed.
The room is very spacious and has a very traditional Japanese design. Personally, I think the only drawback is that there are no shower facilities in the room and you have to go to the bathhouse to take a shower.
There are two types of public private baths, one indoor and one outdoor. The water temperature is moderate and full of minerals (should it be sulfur?). These public private rooms need to be booked in advance with the staff, who will also recommend the usage time so that guests can see the most beautiful view. The use of these private rooms is limited, and two time periods can be reserved each day.
The food is also great, and each room has its own private room. Dinner is all Kaiseki cuisine. We added Wagyu beef when we made the reservation and it tasted very good. Breakfast will offer a fusion of Western and Japanese side dishes, and the dishes vary every day.
The hotel provides free parking, which is very friendly to self-driving tourists, and there are plenty of parking spaces.
However, there is a small problem with payment. The fee paid when booking on Trip.com is only used to reserve the room, not the actual payment. So I didn't pay attention to it before the trip, and there were some misunderstandings when checking out. The reservation fee will be refunded about two weeks after check-in.
