The hotel's location is a bit out of the way. The ocean view from the room was okay, I guess. You're required to take off your shoes when entering the hotel, but they don't even provide disposable slippers, so the service is pretty mediocre. The front desk staff also had a very unenthusiastic attitude during check-in. The hotel tries to project an image of being very clean and upscale, but honestly, the cleanliness of the guest rooms was just average; the toilet wasn't even wiped clean and had stains.

Hoshino Resorts KAI Beppu | Immersed in Japanese Aesthetics, Ocean-View Onsen is Super Healing— The hotel environment is clean and tidy, and the Japanese bathhouse, in particular, is much more tranquil and spotless than many Japanese ryokans; it's truly in a different league. There's not a speck of dust in any corner, and the bathrooms, tatami mats, and floor-to-ceiling windows are all sparkling clean and clear, perfect for germaphobes. The architecture is modern Japanese style, designed by Kengo Kuma. The wooden corridors and washi paper lanterns create a fantastic ambiance. All guest rooms directly face Beppu Bay, offering a stunning 'picture frame' view to watch the sunrise over the ocean from your bed. However, the room type I booked did not include a private onsen. The public hot springs are divided into indoor and open-air sections; the saline onsen water is incredibly smooth, leaving you feeling completely soothed and relaxed after a soak. There's also a free foot bath in the lobby, perfect for resting your feet and enjoying the sea view anytime. The service upholds Hoshino's consistently meticulous and thoughtful standards. The staff are gentle and polite, assisting with check-in, explaining in-house activities, and there are even evening performances and local cultural experiences. The hotel shop offers a good selection of local specialty souvenirs to purchase. Transportation is also very convenient, just a ten-minute walk from Beppu Station. The hotel is located by the coast, making it easy to stroll and explore the seaside promenade. The 'one night, two meals' kaiseki dinner features exquisite local seafood and ingredients from Oita, presented beautifully with a delicate and refined flavor. For breakfast, you can choose between Japanese and Western options. The Japanese breakfast includes a 'jigoku mushi' set meal with a rich variety, offering a balanced combination of fresh fish, steamed vegetables, and miso soup. Tip: Be sure to book your breakfast time well in advance with the hotel, otherwise an early slot can be quite inconvenient.

What a blast I had here!!! I only stayed for one night and now I wish I had stayed longer. It was a Friday so Rio, the owner, organizes a night of games at the public gymnasium for teenagers (who although growing up already have the strength of super-powered samurais) and whoever else wants to participate. I haven't run and wake up with so many bruises since high school! It was really cool how everyone is quick to set the props for each game, we played 4 or 5 games in one hour!!!! It felt like a much longer time, everyone gave their best presence and participation all the time! It seems the other nights he takes everyone for a walk to see the stars, and Tuesdays there's also volleyball. Anyways, he is pretty proactive and creative , so I'm sure there's many variations and possibilities! The living room is very pretty, the sofas super comfortable and the view gorgeous! The bed was very hard :/ this was the only big issue for me. The onsen is so cozy, the water super smooth and instrumental music playing. Delicious! The conditioner smells great! I was a bit worried that they had too many rules, because when I contacted they informed about the need to leave the house everyday from 10 until 16. And that the eating time was very specific: 7:20 in the morning and 7 at night... So I was worried they would be too strict...but there's no need to join the food. I had breakfast and it felt like it would be at the communal dinning of beauxbatons, everyone sitting closeby with identical very beautifully presented meals that come in many quantity but small portions. It is not my jam, but for sure it is special! Some informations could be a bit more clear because they are a bit slow responding. For example they have a pick up time in front of the army at 6pm. I asked info for an amazing lady at the Art Center inside the station, Chika, and she called them. She ended up taking me herself and was the best company I could have found! She is an artist, we went to the supermarket and had great conversation! I recommend going to the art center to say hi to Chika! Lots of love, thank youuu Mountain Mamas!!!

This hotel is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk from JR Oita Station, to the left after exiting. It's also very close to Beppu. The bathroom features a separate wet and dry area, and the bedding is comfortable. The women's public bath has both indoor and outdoor pools. The complimentary ramen and ice cream in the evening are a thoughtful touch, and there's also water and snacks in the fridge.

One of the nice features of this hotel is that you can enjoy the onsen while looking out over the ocean. However, it is not very convenient without a car. I walked all the way from Beppu Station before discovering that the hotel offers a free shuttle bus. I’ve attached the shuttle bus schedule—I’d strongly recommend using it. The room was the biggest disappointment. Although it was advertised as a renovated, high-floor ocean-view room, it still felt very old. The bathroom was especially outdated, and there was a very high step between the bathroom and the room, making it easy to trip. The room really feels like it needs a proper renovation. Overall, the ocean-view onsen was enjoyable, but the rooms did not match my expectations.

From the moment I stepped into the hotel, I felt incredibly relaxed. The hot springs, especially the private ones, were amazing for photos and so comfortable. The tatami room was also super cozy. The highlight, though, was definitely the ramen in the evening – it was so delicious, I had to have two bowls! And the hand soap in the room was really good too, very moisturizing; I wanted to find it to buy, but couldn't.

Celebrated 520 (May 20th) by booking a more upscale meal that day, and the experience was great ❤️. The location is fantastic! It's a 5-minute walk to Umi Jigoku (Sea Hell), so we went straight there after breakfast when it was less crowded. Regarding service, I have to say: it was the rainy season, and there were many staff members standing at the entrance, but they only bowed. It felt awkward watching adults and children run into the hotel in the rain to check in, and checking out involved carrying our own luggage in the rain too.

Every floor in the hotel has a self-service welcome tea machine, which is really refreshing after a hot spring bath. It's only a ten-minute walk from Beppu Station, so even with luggage, it's not a hassle. It's an old-style Japanese inn, and you can book a private hot spring bath for 700 yen (500 for usage, 200 for tax). It's a true hot spring, and a soak washes away all the fatigue. They offer free luggage storage, which is very convenient. There's also a large, affordable supermarket nearby.

Everything was perfect in this hotel! Room is spacious and there are both indoor and outdoor private onsen in the room. The futon was the softest and most comfortable I’ve ever had in Japanese onsen hotels. Dinner was amazing and breakfast was good enough. It would be better if we can choose Japanese or Western style for breakfast. We was looking for grilled fish or sth in Japanese style. Will visit again definitely!
