Hot spring Hotels in Minamiaso

The service staff is very kind and one person can speak Chinese. We booked a private hot spring room. The room is very spacious. The private hot spring environment is ok, and it is a bit dark at night. The most appreciated is the public hot springs outside. There are more saunas indoors and outdoors. Very big. There is a soup outside the banquet. Dinner and breakfast are rich and delicious. And the price is cheap, may be a bit old. Overall very satisfied.

A remote entrance like an old private house. There is an atmosphere. Stay in the desired type. There was an open-air bath and an inner bath, and the open-air bath overlooking Mt. Aso was the best, and there was an enclosure, so I can't see it. The room is two-way and wide 々, and the amenities are also substantial. The whole room is clean as a new building. In the morning and evening, you will be given a private room in front of Kagura dono. The coldest time in February, the air conditioner was not very effective, and the foot was very cold, so I asked you to lend me a knee hanger, but it was thin, so I felt grateful to prepare a thick one. I did. The remote control of the air conditioner was not shared or in the private room. Because Nakai is older, it took time every time I asked for something. Before dinner, there was a Japanese drum dance at Kagura dono. It was splendid. It was cold, but it is worth a look. (It is better to confirm only on Saturdays and days.) The dishes were usually delicious. There was a long slope to go to the room away from the mother shop. Drinking around and flapping down! Watch out. It was an inn I wanted to stay again.

本來是想去黑川温泉的，可惜太熱門，好的酒店全部訂完，找備選方案時意外留意到了南阿蘇村，知名度雖然沒有黑川那麼響，但綜合指數一點不落下。 交通方面，從熊本坐豐肥本線到肥厚大津再換同線路車到立野站，也有車次能直達立野站，但車次不多，大部分還是到肥厚大津的，得換一次。另外要注意，立野站不能刷ic卡，所有卡都不能，坐車去立野站記得買乘車券，進站時千萬別刷卡。到立野站後再換南阿蘇鐵路，這是條主打海賊王的私鐵線路，很有特色，沿途風景也很治癒，算是個景點。注意南阿蘇鐵路也不能刷卡，後門上車拿整理券，前門下車付現即可，沒零錢的可以用車上的兩替機兑換，很方便。離酒店最近的車站是白水高原站（hakusui-kogen），可以提前和酒店聯繫好時間，他們可以來車站接的，如果嫌麻煩，也想自己走走看看日本農村景象，步行到酒店沿途走走拍拍照，我們大概花了1小時，後半程因為是爬坡會有些累。 景點方面，我們去了網紅的上色見熊野座神社，不虛此行，酒店也很貼心的幫忙接送到白水高原站，從這裏坐電車到高森站，再換產交巴士上色見環線就到了。酒店後山其實也挺好逛的，我們在地圖上找了個叫十六羅漢的古蹟，想去探探險，可惜疫情幾年沒有維護，上山的路壞了沒法走，但沿途風景還是不錯的。 餐飲方面，酒店包兩餐，都是在房間用餐。主菜有壽喜燒、小火鍋和蒸汽牛肉可選，配菜有生魚片刺身、馬肉刺身、鍋物、蒸物等，很豐盛，口味也不錯。 温泉方面，酒店特色就是每個房間有自己的私湯，應該更符合國人喜好，也適合情侶出行吧。住的幾天基本一天3泡，不要太舒服。

Minamiaso Kugino Onsen Wafu Ryokan Hanamomiji is located in Minamiaso and takes about 50 minute by car from JR Aso Station, near Mount Aso and Aso Shrine. It takes about 30 minute from the hotel to Kumamoto Airport by car. Yukata are available for guests to wear during their stay. Guests may borrow irons and humidifiers at no additional charge (please inquire at the front desk for details). Facilities include a communal bath and an open-air bath. The hotel possesses 10 guest rooms.

The front desk is an old-fashioned inn style. The slippers that enter the eye as soon as they enter the room are dirt and heel cut off, and even if the paper of ”disinfected” is riding, it is hesitant to wear today. The hand towel for hot springs is not dedicated to oneself who entered the vinyl, but washed and used. The room and the shared space are not deteriorated, but I felt that I was working hard in the double punch of the earthquake and corona. The bath is divided into ”dondoyu” which can take a day trip bath and a hot spring dedicated to guests. ”Dondoyu” is located at the hotel front desk, looking at the vast garden, and walking 2,3 minutes through the crossing corridor where there is a rabbit hut on the way. There was an open-air bath that had been boldly made in the garden, and there was an open-air bath that had been pulled out of hot water due to corona, but the large open-air bath was put in a source. In the morning, ”dondoyu” was closed, so I went to the guest only, but I was able to enjoy it at a hot spring with a wide 々 with an open-air bath. As for the meal, breakfast was normal, but dinner was great. Especially the red beef pottery plate was amazing, and such a delicious steak was not eaten easily. The overall evaluation is 3.5 points. If you close your eyes to oldness, it is a hotel that can be satisfied enough.

We are a couple from Australia and I only speak a little Japanese. This was a truly AMAZING experience! The staff were so kind and friendly, giving us assistance was no issue for them. The location is stunning, the private onsen was glorious and the dinners and breakfasts were bigger than we could possibly eat (and we love our food). The price point for this experience was so good - fantastic value for money. I would recommend this to anyone who wants a little adventure in the heart of countryside Japan. If you get the chance to also visit Minamiaso (they will take you there at no extra charge) for the day, grab some e-bikes and have a ride around- take in the beautiful scenery and wonderful food options.

Have you read the detective novel by British writer Agatha Christie? She has a work called ”Crimes in the Sun”, which is about a group of tourists vacationing on a sunny island. Suddenly an extremely strange murder happened... When we walked into this hotel, I Suddenly thought of Christie's novel in his mind. In the remote and quiet countryside, a hotel with a strong classic flavor stands alone. There is an elegant restaurant in the hotel with about ten rooms. Through the window of the guest room, you can see the smoke erupting from Mount Aso and the rolling mountains in the distance. The surroundings of the hotel are quiet, full of greenery. Everything fits perfectly with the scene in Christie's work...Of course, nothing changed in the end. We spent two happily nights here, soaking in the natural hot springs in the hotel every morning and evening. The boss’s cooking skills are good, and the breakfast she cooked is very delicious. highly recommended.

There is no hot spring meal now, but it is comfortable to live!

A very pleasant experience, the independent cabin has a beautiful environment, the cabin is clean and comfortable, the most pleasant surprise is the meal, the dinner is a five-course Western food, very delicious, breakfast is also rich, the host is amiable, friends who play in Nan'asu can consider
