The level of attention of their customer service by the staff to me and my girlfriend was amazing and in a way, heart warming. For example, they knew we liked to face the garden while eating so they setup the table that way. Another example is, they knew I loved boiled eggs so instead of asking every morning they prepared it for me. These little small attention to details and the kindness of the staff, the wonderful food, the beautiful scenery and amazing onsen made my trip unforgettable.

Amazing Experience! Great environments with the country side landscape, tranquility mountain view, traditional hot springs and tatami room. Note that the wall is paper thin but guests all keep quiet in the night.

Very nice employees, helpful. Indoor and outsoor onsen featuhg clean outdoor and indoor bath

Very attending and courteous staff. The facility is ok but does its job of providing good lodging for guests. The place is good for English speakers as the staff are able to get their point across in English but it would be courteous to meet them in the middle and learn some useful Japanese phrases as well. Dinner and breakfast services were superb. The free shuttle service to and from the bus station was much appreciated.

A beautiful place to stay and experience a stay in a Ryokan and onsen. It is located just outside of Kyoto in Ohara so be prepared to take time to travel there from Kyoto station.

The food was terrific! A unique Japanese experience.

Ryokan had all basic amenities like AC, TV. Customer service was pretty good as the front desk guy made many efforts to answer our questions from time to time. We also got breakfast and dinner which was organized in a traditional fashion. Breakfast had a nice selection and we liked it, but the shabu shabu dinner wasn’t great with chicken being the only meat. As for the room itself it was traditional but we thought there would be something akin to tea ceremony.
The onsen itself was comfortable with both indoor and outdoor and being able to experience both as they flipped men and women one in morning. It was convenient to have the hotel arrange a shuttle to the bus stop. The bus 17 from Kyoto station to Ohara is pretty convenient and runs frequently. The town of ohara nearby gives a taste of rural Japan and is a nice experience to walk through.
Overall it’s a good experience but next time for onsen I’d prefer being in outdoors in Nikko than repeat stay here. The entrance with pond full of koi, tannuki was very sweet me a nice site we could see from our window.

This is where you relax. Lovely nature, food and onsen. Rooms are clean and brand new, staff speaks English and is very helpful. Remember to call for a pickup at the bus station- there is a payphone. The best lunch/cakes can be found at the small and very cool french/japanese bistro near the bus station on the small walkway in the rice fields.

Very warm greeting from receptionist. Although I was a bit late arrive hostel and still keep the dinner for us. In a very quite area.

It is very nice and calm. Sometimes you are inconvinient because there's no staff who can talk English.

You need to prepare your own bed at night. Before you can spread out the tatami. You need to rearrange the room by moving the table to the side. No one will help you with the bedding or making your bed.

Getting to the Onsen is a bit of a hike but was pretty easy to navigate. It's settled back into the hills/mountains about 30 minutes north of Kyoto station. We arrived on a rainy day and it was absolutely magical. The hills had mist rolling over them and it felt like we were walking through a Miyazaki film. The staff was attentive and spoke excellent English. The room was clean and had its own bathroom (no shower). We were in a tatami mat room and it was perfect for two people. The window opened up and overlooked their koi pond and had a good view of the hills (ask for room 211!). At dinner and breakfast the staff was, again, attentive and helpful. The meals were served in a traditional style (think Ryokan) and were quite tasty, though be prepared for an odd fish side dish or two.
The baths themselves were also very nice. Men and women were separate and each bath had a traditional washing area where you clean up before getting into the bath. Each side had an indoor and outdoor bath as well. The only downside is the baths were pretty small and had a man-made feel versus some of the larger natural spring looking ones. This said, the water felt great on the skin and when we were there (a Monday) it wasn't too busy. I had the outdoor bath to myself for most of the time. Would definitely recommend this place for any budget (or even non budget) adventurers looking to experience an Onsen.

Lovely place, lovely location. Service was ok-- didn't really feel welcomed, often felt awkward (and we're not new to Japan and its cultural norms). Would stay here again though.

在京都的最后一晚,我选择了这家大原温泉旅馆,我很庆幸我的选择是正确的。这里的周围环境清新自然,能够让人的身心放松下来,并且在旅馆里,有着良好的服务与设施,温泉也是十分的舒服。感谢旅馆的服务人员带来的优质服务。

The inn is up at the mountain in the midst of beautiful scenery, and at the source of Hot Springs. The two meals provided are plentiful and tasty. The dinner is a hot pot, while the breakfast is a traditional Japanese breakfast. It has both indoor and outdoor Hot Springs.

A great Ryokan experience away from the city. The staff were friendly and helpful. Appreciated that we were provided with different set meals during our 3 day stay. Shuttle service was provided to and fro between the Ryokan and Ohara bus station at a moment's notice.
Ohara is located 1 hour away from Kyoto station. Thus, travelling takes up a lot of our time and we have to leave for Ohara by 5.30 pm to make it back for Dinner. Thus, the Ryokan is good for those who don't mind the additional travel time and transport cost.

If you're looking for an authentic Japanese experience with good food and gracious hosts, look no further. The Ryokan was tucked away in the mountains of Ohara and miles from the bright lights of Kyoto. We were the only Americans present during our stay and made it a point of emphasis to respect the locals and hosts alike. Our quest for solitude after the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and Osaka was fulfilled upon reaching Yumoto Onsen.

Good experience for a stay in an Onsen with outdoor and indoor hot spring tubs. It can be reached by taxi from Kyoto for about 50,000 Yen, or much cheaper by bus. The drive is scenic and provides a nice view of the country side. The walk from the Onsen to the Sanzen Temple is very pleasant and scenic, and you are not surrounded by the usual crowds found in Kyoto. The Ohara Riverside Cafe near the hotel is a very nice place to have a good latte and snack.
We've paid a lot more for a higher end Ryokan hotel in Gion where the food is much elaborate and service is much better. But this one offers a good experience for a much more reasonable price.

The staff were very friendly and kind. The accommodations were very comfortable, the onsen was absolutely wonderful, the water felt very silky and smooth with minerals. Ohara is absolutely beautiful, even though it rained one of the days we were there (ew) the scenery was still breathtaking. My mom enjoyed it so much she started looking into buying a house in the area.
The only (very minor) complaint was that the dinner felt somewhat simple for the cost, however, it makes sense since it's in a more remote area where supplies are more difficult to acquire.
The foot bath near the inn was absolutely adorable and incredibly relaxing.
Highly recommend!

The location is about 12 min. taxi ride from the closest train station on the north side in the beautiful Kyoto suburb. Everything was good as expected except:
1) The staff told us that the onsen would be open from 8:00 till 10:00AM the next morning (His English was actually quite good). In fact, it was only opened from 6:00AM to 8:00AM. There was actually a bulletin board on the front desk telling the patrons about the opening hours. However, the bulletin was only in Japanese. So we really missed the chance of having another dip before we left.
2) The dinner (included) was delicious but I felt there was not enough meat for the 4 of us.
3) There was no private bathroom in our room. This was a surprise (and inconvenience) to us.
BTW, there was a neighborhood cafe which offers foot bath while drinking coffee at the table. Very nice but not cheap.

It takes about an hour to reach Ohara by no.17 bus from Kyoto Station, then 20 minute walk from the Ohara bus stop to the ryokan, it would be a pleasure walk if you don't bring large luggages. The ryokan is in a village, small but clean. Guests need to share bathroom, and even toilets. There is only one toilet for men, and one for women each floor and guests have to walk along staircases outdoor to access to annex building where bathroom and hot spring are.
If you don't mind the above, it is relaxing to stay there one day or two to enjoy hot spring, countryside scenery, flowers, valleys, farmers working on theirs farms, especially the colourful autumn leaves in Jakko-in Temple and Sanzenin Temple. A cup of coffee and a French toast will be the highlight of the day in a nearby coffee shop called "Kirin" where decorated with lots of giraffe stuffs, their food are more than I expect.
