The two of us stayed at ryokan Reimei at the end of March and we booked the reimei room with an open bath. We had the best experience ever. We could go in for a dip whenever we felt like it. The shower is on the outside with the open bath and the coldness of the weather wasn’t a problem for us since the water of the shower was quite warm and you jump into the onsen right after… (I see lots of comments complaining about that). Dinner/breakfast service time and shuttle bus leaving time was chosen at checkin, we could choose between the times that were convenient for us. The dinner and breakfast were not true kaiseki but it was still delicious and fulfilling. We also brought some pudding from downtown before going to our ryokan and I definitely recommend doing that as there’s no dessert component in the dinner kaiseki. This is not our first ryokan and having an open air bath definitely made the experience 10000 times better!!! We will definitely choose the same room again if we’re coming back to yufuin!!

Everything about staying here was great! I only speak English and Korean and the staff were extremely helpful and accommodating! Especially the manager at the front desk. I got to meet and have simple conversations with the staff. Even the ones that only speak Japanese. They were all friendly and kind regardless of language barriers. The bathrooms, bedrooms, and onsen were very clean and comfortable. The meals were delicious and well timed. I will definitely be back and I am even thinking about coming back for my honeymoon!

During the winter, when the sun goes early, it is nearly impossible to spot the hotel from the road. No light near the hotel sign. Staffs are friendly and nice but this hotel is overrated! With the similar price, I could've found the hotel with a private onsen in the room and free limitless drinks plus a halfboard.

The hotel is located a little further away from the JR station. While the hotel offers pick up service from and to the JR station, it is accessible only by taxi (about 800 yens) if you want to go out to the town center. Wifi signal is too weak, and virtually not usable.

A bit out of the way, but they offer a free pick up from the station. The beds were nice and so was the onsen. The dinner was very small compared to other ryokan and average overall. Breakfast was a bit better. Other than that, the WiFi was very spotty and couldn’t keep a connection for very long.

Cheap dinner & breakfast, location is bad.

Luckily we only stayed one night, the room was good and has a balcony facing a nice view. The osen area was very small and DIRTY. The dinner & breakfast were unexpected so bad, small potion and the beef were not fresh. No coffee for breakfast! Cheap!

Overall, a good stay. Environment was quiet and peaceful. Staff were courteous and helpful. However, driving to the hotel was not easy as roads were narrow and winding.

塊陶 在大廳check-in的時候雖然員工態度好 但是其實也沒多做什麼用餐在哪裡或是預約個室浴池等相關介紹 再來是沒電梯就得自己搬運行李 工作人員不會幫忙 但這部分老字號的旅館也是沒有電梯的 所以是能接受的範圍 最可怕是進房霉味撲鼻而來 我大概乾嘔了三次快點開窗呼吸 以及快點開除濕機慢慢習慣才比較能待在房間 椅子上還有明顯污漬也不敢坐 最後就是浴池 溫泉浴池裡的木頭滑滑黏黏的 所以會有不乾淨的感覺 雖然有附停車場很貼心 但是因為道路的關係其實也不太好停車 餐點可能對於男性不夠吃 同行的人還覺得不好吃 只是擺起來好看而已 因此覺得不是一個非常愉快的入住體驗

Meh

The room looks very run-down and jam packed if travelling in a group of 4. Food quality would be best described as unimpressive considering how much we paid for this accommodation. Onsen is ok but definitely avoid the foot massage machine on 1/F, which was found full of dust and dead skins of other people. Ew!

施設から見る景観は良かった。 良くないところは、日本人だからできる いろんな場面でのおもてなしが感じられ ない事でした。例えば、食事の提供の仕方、 いろんなところ掃除が出来ていない。 （ホコリが多い） 従業員の方が韓国の方なのかわかりませんが、 ほぼお客さんも韓国の方が多かった感じです。宿名を日本風の韓国の宿とした方がいいのでは？日本人は多くの人が不満を感じると思います。
