Find 3-Star Hotels in Aso

"Fairfield by Marriott Kumamoto Aso is one of the best hotel which I stayed when traveling to Fukuoka with family members. The staff is superb friendly and they has prepared a small welcoming gifts for my son, which surprise us with this little warm gestures! Although the hotel did not have breakfast facilities, but I do enjoy the have a common area with free coffee, tea and miso soup, and kitchen amenities. The room layout is modern design, with very comfortable beds. Great news if you are an Usopp fans, the statue is just walking distance from the hotel!"

"Very beautiful place, and the room was truly excellent: spacious, bright, warm, with impeccable bedding and cleanliness. The bathroom is large and includes a bathtub, and the room is very well equipped (electric kettle, small kitchen, large refrigerator). It was also possible to arrange horseback riding and get onsen tickets, which is a real plus. However, for backpackers, this accommodation is not ideal at all. It is very far from everything: – FamilyMart: about a 27-minute walk – Bus stop: about a 21-minute walk – Mount Aso Museum: around 1h15 total (including 20 minutes on foot) – Aso Station: about a 1h15 walk A small anecdote: we first climbed up to the accommodation carrying our 10 kg backpacks, only to see on the door that check-in is actually done at the bottom. It would be helpful to indicate this more clearly downstairs, or at least make it easier to notice for foreign travelers, as we missed the information 😅 Finally, for those planning to walk to the Aso Museum or hiking areas, the path indicated at the end of the residential area near the accommodation does not exist."

"What I loved -Super big room with plenty of space. Very comfortable! -Free yukata and sleepwear were provided, and they were really comfortable to wear. -Loved the onsen experience! There are different onsen baths, and everything is connected indoors so you don't have to go outside. -Buffet dinner and breakfast were amazing. So much variety, and the Aso milk was incredibly fresh and delicious. -The room had a beautiful view. Waking up to the scenery was one of the highlights of the stay. -Great place to relax, and I would definitely bring my family back next time. What could be better -The open-air parking lot is quite large, and some parking spaces are a bit far from the hotel lobby."

"This inn was amazing! We even added an extra night. Our room had a view of Mount Aso, and dinner was a BBQ with Japanese side dishes. The innkeepers, a loving couple, were incredibly attentive and caring, especially considering we had a child. The four private hot springs, each with its own unique style, were fantastic. This small inn had everything you could need, with impeccable attention to detail and impeccable cleanliness. Even the slippers we wore each day were labeled with the guests' room names. Staying at the foot of Mount Aso allowed us to explore at a leisurely pace. With the extra day, we also visited Takachiho, ate Miyazaki beef, and enjoyed a great inn!"

"Like the onsen in the hotel; onsen water is good and big enough for 6-7 person to use. Japanese breakfast served by staff was quite substantial and tasty. The room that we stayed is quiet and faces mountain and park. Bathroom a little small but clean. There wasn’t any wardrobe but there were hooks on the wall and hangers were provided."

"The dinner food is very rich and fresh, the breakfast is as delicious, there is Asu Shrine nearby, and the private hot spring is very enjoyable. Definitely come again next time."

"As the first stop of my birthday trip, I chose Aso. Having previously worked as a hotel management professional, I had high expectations for the hotel’s facilities and services. My stay at Kakuman Hotel, along with my traveling companions, was thoroughly enjoyable—from check-in to the overall amenities, everything exceeded our satisfaction. The staff we encountered were exceptionally friendly, whether at the front desk or in the restaurant. Additionally, experiencing hot springs for the first time left us feeling deeply relaxed. Thank you to Kakuman Hotel for adding color to my journey.🙏🏼 While every aspect was highly satisfying, there was a minor shortcoming: the majority of diners in the restaurant were Korean tourists. On my second night, a small incident occurred during dinner. The server assigned me a seat where only tableware and a departure-time notice were placed. After I retrieved my food, I found three Korean guests (two elderly individuals and a middle-aged man) preparing to sit there. I was confused whether I had taken the wrong seat or if there was another reason, so I asked the guests. Unexpectedly, the man loudly called over the female server who had arranged the seat and sharply questioned her in Japanese. The server later found me the correct seat, which was at the table adjacent to the three guests. I felt deeply sorry for the female server being unjustly scolded, and I also did not understand why the Korean man needed to accuse her in such a loud tone—I would have been happy to apologize for my misunderstanding. Regarding the above incident, I would like to offer a suggestion: the tables in the restaurant are each equipped with a bucket of tableware and wet wipes, but there are no numbers or markers to identify the assigned seats. Guests can only rely on placing their own items or memory to remember their seats. I believe I am not the only one who has encountered a similar issue, and the hotel may consider adding markers to each table to make it easier for guests to recognize their assigned seats."

"Third visit Always friendly and the golf course view right in front of you is so nice. But if you have any regrets, I would like to block the terrace where you can bake meat. It's cold in winter, so it's almost impossible to grill meat outside. Please."

"The landlady was incredibly warm and welcoming! This place is perfect for self-drivers, and it’s very easy to find with navigation. Shops nearby close quite early, with the latest being a supermarket that shuts around 8 PM. I'd recommend buying groceries beforehand and cooking your own meals, as the kitchen is free to use. On the second morning, after all the other guests had left, my children were able to explore the guesthouse, and it's quite spacious. Before we left, the landlady even took us outside to pick blueberries to eat in the car!"

"It was very good. It was my first time staying in a traditional Japanese ryokan with tatami rooms, so I wasn't used to it at first, but I slept well and it was very quiet. The public and private onsen baths were both excellent, and the meals included with the stay were also well-arranged. Recommended!"
