Kunisakisou
874-0044 Oita, Beppu, Kannawa Furomoto 3 Kumi, Japan – Great location - show map
The location is close to the bus station as well as jigoku attractions. Also, the area makes you feel like you're in one of the Ghibli movies with steam and cute black cats around.

this ryokan is very nice touch to the past atmosphere, Yukata was provied with Geta. the staffs were very helpful.

Excellent meals. Caring services. Organized system. Efficient work.

Everything is very comfortable. The family bath we were able to reserve was great. Staff was excellent!

Breakfast is very well presented (traditional Japanese breakfast, a lot of seafood). Private onsen was very hot, but very good. Room was simple tatami room, but well kept and had a decent view of the rising steam of the Kannawa area (3rd/top floor). My partner was able to choose a new beautiful yukata every day! It was an easy walk to Hyotan Onsen and Umi/Oni Jigoku (and others, we just chose these two). Great onsen-steamed cake at Sally's Garden nearby, and also a restaurant that onsen-steams seafood where you can eat whilst bathing your feet in onsen water.

Good location, wonderful breakfast, very friendly hosts.There are communal baths and private onsen in the ryokan, which were absolutely perfect! A huge plus fot the jigoku mushi steam kitchen outside the building, where you can cook your own meal (there is a big supermarket 10min on foot from the place!)

Staff was really helpful. Onsen was amazing. Breakfast was yummy. Wifi works well.

Wonderful Japanese hotel. The staff was so friendly! We will stay again the next time we are in the area!

Private onsen for free with out stay was an awesome suprise!

The lady was very lovely and helpful. Very clean hotel and perfect location. Within the Kannawa onsen area, walking distance to Beppu hells and famous Jigoku Mushi (famous steam cooking). Small but lovely onsen with a small (for one) outdoor bath. Private onsen wasn’t special.

-
- What's a ryokan?
- A ryokan is a traditional Japanese inn. They usually feature bathhouses, multicourse dinners, communal spaces where guests can relax, and rooms with woven-straw flooring and futon mats. Like hotels, a range of ryokans (from budget to luxury) is available. What originated centuries ago as a free rest house for long-distance travelers has evolved into a popular destination for relaxation surrounded by therapeutic mineral springs.
-
- What are the big differences between a ryokan and a hotel?
- Unlike a hotel, where the guest room is just a place to turn in for the night, a ryokan is more than just a place to sleep. In Japan, many travelers journey long distances to relax in a hot spring bath and feast on a traditional multicourse dinner – staying in a ryokan is an experience in and of itself. These ryokans typically have Japanese-style rooms with woven-straw floors and futon beds (no Western beds and carpeting). You should also remove your shoes at the entrance of the room, or before you enter it. Modern ryokans might serve buffet-style meals in a dining area, while more traditional ryokans tend to serve in-room dinners. Some ryokan rooms have a private bathroom, and others might just have a shared bathroom.
-
- What's a kaiseki meal?
- Kaiseki is the culinary highlight at a ryokan, embodying beautifully presented dishes that delight both the palate and the eyes. Every one of the 10 to 15 dishes that make up the multicourse Japanese dinner is prepared in a way that highlights the unique textures, colors, and flavors of featured seasonal ingredients and local specialties. Most commonly served at special restaurants and ryokans, a traditional kaiseki dinner usually consists of bite-size appetizers, fresh sashimi (raw fish, like sushi), soup, grilled fish or meat, a hot-pot dish, rice with miso soup, and a small dessert.
-
- What's a yukata?
- A yukata is a casual summer kimono or robe, typically made of light cotton. Many ryokans provide guests with yukata robes during their stay. In some areas, it's common to see guests strolling through the neighborhood in their yukatas. The loose-fitting garment is perfect for sleeping and relaxing in.
-
- How should I wear a yukata?
- First, put your arms through the sleeves like you would with a robe. Take the right side of the yukata and wrap it across your body. Then, take the left side and wrap it over the right, making sure that the robe is level at your ankles. Pinning the yukata closed on the right side, wrap the sash around your waist a couple of times and then tie a bow. Generally, the bow is tied around the waist for women, and the hips for men.
-
- What's a Japanese hot spring (onsen)?
- Onsen (literally "hot spring") is a term often used to refer to both the mineral-rich hot springs and the bathing facilities that house them. Whether the bath is public or private, gender-segregated or mixed, indoor or outdoor, soaking and unwinding in the soothing geothermal waters at an onsen is a millennia-old custom deeply embedded in Japanese culture.
-
- What's standard bathing etiquette?
- At a bathhouse—onsen or not—guests are expected to remove all clothing in their respective changing rooms before entering the bathing area. As a common courtesy, once inside the bathing area, guests should wash and rinse their bodies thoroughly before quietly stepping into the hot water. Whether you relax in solitude or converse softly with others is up to you, but guests should always be mindful of others. Wash towels are often used to cover one’s private areas while walking around. However, note that you should not put towels in the water.
-
- Why are tattoos not allowed?
- While tattoos have become more popular among Japan's youth, many Japanese people still associate them with outlaws and organized crime. Nowadays, not all businesses ban customers with tattoos, but you might still be refused admission to bathhouses and swimming pools. Small tattoos can be covered up using waterproof bandaids, but keep in mind that each property has the final say on what’s acceptable.
