Situated along Tanohara River and surrounded by tranquil nature in Kurokawa Onsen hot spring area, Oku no Yu Ryokan offers charming Japanese-style accommodation and various hot spring baths. It also boasts a thermal-heated indoor swimming pool. Free WiFi is provided in public areas. The room was nice and spacious, cozy and comfortable. They have an amazing variety of onsen and perhaps the only place with mixed onsen which I enjoyed very much with my husband. Staff was amazing as well.

Featuring a spa bath, Shikinosato Hanamura is located in Minamioguni. This ryokan provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Providing free WiFi throughout the property, the ryokan is allergy-free and features a hot spring bath. This hotel was the highlight of our travel. Special cultural experience of ryokan + onsen. We enjoyed the dinner and breakfast. Yes, a bit expensive, but you will remember it your whole life. A must during the stay in Japay

The service was exceptional and the staff made us feel very welcome and at home. We especially loved the home cooked meals which were so delicious and beautifully presented. The rooms were comfortable and cosy warm. The hosts were so lovely and helpful. We highly recommend staying here and would love to return.

Minshuku Asogen, a property with a garden, is situated in Aso, 29 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto, 38 km from Kumamoto Castle, as well as 38 km from Suizenji Park. The property is located 39 km from Hosokawa Residence Gyobutei, 8.8 km from Mount Aso and 29 km from KK Wings. The ryokan features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. I can only rate this place as 10/10. It's what you would expect from a Ryokan, and more. Specifically, i'd say two things are better than other great Ryokan, the onsen (private suites with windows that can be opened to "transform" the main room into a rotemburo at will) and the kaiseki dinner, where chu-toro, basashi and marbled beef were on the menu. Apart from an extensive sake menu. Other than that, the owners / team managing it are super nice and helpful. Perfect place to enjoy before/after an Aso trek.

The ryokan serves Japanese seasonal dishes at its dining room, which features an open kitchen. Teahouse Warabe offers self-service coffee. A variety of Japanese shochu liquor, wines and other drinks can be enjoyed at bar Kura. A truly nice ryokan stay - several rooms/houses, hidden among the trees, many options for bathing - two M/F outdoor onsens, and several private baths. We did not use the indoor onsen. Breakfast and dinner are worth themselves the stay, as they are really "rich", both in variety of the food and the colors :) Room was simple and elegant, more than big enough for two. The staff was very professional, polite and helpful. Hope that we visit the place again! Arrive here early, not just before the dinner, so you can enjoy the many onsen possibilities and sit down for a cup of tea among the trees.
