This was one of my favorite stays in Kyushu. The rooms are spacious, clean, and many face Beppu Bay. Some rooms have private ceramic baths or open-air baths, which make the stay feel special.
The hotel’s biggest highlight is the rooftop open-air onsen, with a wide view over the sea, beautiful at sunrise or in the evening. There are also indoor and outdoor public baths inside the building.
Dinner is kaiseki-style using local ingredients from Oita, and breakfast is usually a Japanese set meal. Room styles vary: modern Japanese, Western, or mixed, so it’s easy to book whether you're a couple, a family, or a group.
Price: From ¥10,000 to ¥40,000 per night depending on room and number of guests
