The front staff was not all that welcoming. Not friendly for the rather high end hotel. The shower head was broken,whichnI reported to the front.

Lovely stay at Ayunosato

Beautiful view of the Kumagawa river from the lobby. You can even see it while taking the elevator! Great service (they provide transfers from Hitoyoshi station to the ryokan and back) and hospitable staff. Tourist spots like Aoi Aso Shrine and Hitoyoshi Castle Ruins and Museum are within walking distance. Will love to stay here again when I come back to Hitoyoshi.

Tout était magnifique, la chambre était énorme avec une belle vue sur la rivière. L'hôtel est superbe. Une sorte de ryokan moderne. Ce qui m'a moins plus: Je n'ai pas eu droit au Onsen à cause de mon petit tatouage sur l'avant bras (je savais que c'était possible, donc pas de soucis.) Mais au check-out, on m'a fait payer une taxe pour les bains... Je me suis senti arnaqué

御料理が抜群に美味しい。地産地消、出汁の取り方、器の見せ方、季節感、料理長の力量とお人柄がわかる御料理に感服致しました。温泉も肌に馴染むトロトロの泉質で、何度も入りたくなる名湯でした。

아침을 먹었는데, 빵과 커피는 없고, 완전 일본식 아침이네요. 그점이 좀 불만이었어요. 일본식 아침과 서양식 아침을 선택할수 있으면 좋겠습니다. 그점이 불만...다른건 괜찮았어요.

宿の前を流れる球磨川の眺めが良く、静かで気持ちの良い宿だ。2020年の大水害でこのホテルも被災したようだが、その傷跡も癒え、地下のギャラリーの写真に名残を留めるだけになっている。まずは良かった。焼酎バーでの無料の各種焼酎の振舞いは嬉しい。
