The rooms were spacious and beautiful! We enjoyed the private bath. We were unable to have dinner at the property but the concierge helped us to book a nearby restaurant that was very good!

일단 온천여관 답지 않게 시스템이 호텔처럼 되어 있습니다. 여관 내 정원을 포함한 주변 경치도 훌륭하고 객실에 딸린 야외탕도 멋집니다.
예약이 늦어 가이세키요리를 못 먹은 점이 조금 아쉬웠습니다.
날씨가 추워서 객실내 야외탕을 이용할때 좀 불편감이 있었습니다.
위치가 유후인 시내에서 좀 멀리 떨어져 있어 경치는 좋으나 접근성이 좀 떨어지구요.

We stayed for two nights, overall a very pleasant experience especially it was snowing during our stay :) Most service staff were friendly and helpful, we were offered hot tea upon arrival and two guys took our heavy luggages all the way to the room and gave a quick introduction about the facility and room. Both private and public bath are nice and clean, the public bath was empty most of the time, you can enjoy it all yourself, that’s beyond our expectation. The room is cozy and warm, quiet and private, good for couples.
Things to note: The location is a bit far away from the town centre(30min walk or 5 min drive), we rented a car so that’s not a problem for us, there are NO restaurants or grocery shops outside or anywhere closer. Also book the dinner early, they don’t have capacity to offer dinner for every guest. We cannot dine in on site even we booked more than one month earlier. Lastly, the toilet is super cold during the winter, there is no heating in that area. If you want to take a shower, you can only do that outside of your room next to private open air bath. It can be a bit cold if it is winter. Otherwise you can go to public bath to take shower inside the room.

4.5 / 5.0
The tranquil setting in spacious grounds and the private outdoor onsen which came with the room. The property was well-kept, with meticulous attention to detail. Dinner and breakfast were beautifully presented and delicious.
There was no pick up from the train station, purportedly a precaution to limit Covid transmission. We found this puzzling.

excellent food and and service. staff are very nice. room is clean and free drinks in the fridge.
You need to tell them if you want cleaning service, otherwise they will not enter your room during the day.

It was a memorable experience that let us experience a very best ryokan hospitality in Japan which starts from the moment we arrived until the end of our stay. The service given was impeccable, special thanks to our lovely and friendly host, Ri-na! We enjoyed our stay very much and would highly recommended Gettouan to everyone!
Nothing to not like about

I have stayed in quite a few ryokans but Yufuin Gettouan is really different. When we arrived by car, there was a small party already waiting to shelter us from the rain. The lady at reception Ms 何 was able to converse with us in mandarin and explained everything clearly. A first time for us as usually it is a Japanese speaking person and we will just smile politely and nod our heads without understanding anything. Our server for lunch and dinner Ms 友永 was also able to engage us in conversation and the service was exceptional as was the fine spread for dinner. Room was nice and spacious with a private bath. The public bath and coffee room was also great. Wished I could have stayed longer.
Nothing, its perfect!
3.5 / 5.0
Authentic experience and amazing food, shared hot springs are nice.
Very rustic. The hotel didnt inform us about the available public shared hot spring, only about the male/ female. We have learned about the shared one only later from the friends who have visited it before. The hot spring in the room is smaller compared to the other similar hotels. Thus knowing about the public one would have been nice.
