Hot Springs Hotels in Beppu

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.

We enjoyed our stay at KOKO Hotel Premier Hakata. The location is very convenient, with easy access to Hakata Station and many nearby attractions. There is also a convenience store right next door, which was extremely handy during our stay. The staff were friendly, helpful, and responded promptly whenever assistance was needed. The hotel and guest rooms were tidy and well maintained. One thing to note is that daily room cleaning is not provided, so while the room was generally clean and comfortable, I would not rate it at the highest level of cleanliness compared with hotels that provide daily housekeeping service. Amenities such as toothbrushes, tea, and other supplies are available at the lobby for guests to collect as needed, which is a practical and environmentally friendly approach. Overall, a comfortable and well-located hotel with good service, and I would consider staying here again when visiting Fukuoka.

This hotel has it all, even a water filter for drinking water, not to mention a whole box of laundry detergent for washing clothes, and a drying rack on the balcony. On the first floor, there's a lobby with a variety of free drinks. The breakfast on the top floor is also incredibly rich, costing about 250 NTD per person. The curry rice, miso soup, tamagoyaki, and side dishes are abundant. We even ordered a grilled meat set meal for dinner, which was luxurious and affordable. I honestly suspect the owner doesn't care about costs, just wants guests to enjoy themselves. There are also parking spaces at the entrance. The rooftop restaurant offers over a 250-degree view of the beach, ocean, and nightscape, which is absolutely beautiful. Nearby, you can take a walk along the beach and enjoy Beppu Onsen. The Beppu Observation Deck at night is also stunning, and it's more than just a traditional observation deck: * 17F: Observation deck, observation deck cafe, light installations, Beppu Tower Shrine * 16F: Observation deck, Galaxy Walk, and other illuminated spaces * 5F: Sky & Light Terrace, mid-level observation deck, also with BBQ/Sauna facilities * 4F: Karaoke * 2F: Beppu Art Museum * 1F: Restaurant CREOLE CAFE

My husband and I stayed 3 nights here in late May 2026. And wow - this place is super impressive! This was by far the best hotel / resort we’ve stayed at during our Japan trip (nearly 3 months of traveling central and southern Japan). The rooms are spacious, extremely clean, luxurious. You have your own private indoor onsen, outdoor onsen, cold plunge tub, sauna and if in the summer, your own private pool. You have a full size kitchen, full western style living room with a TV, full Japanese style living room, multiple toilets and a beautiful bathroom. And a beautiful view overlooking Beppu below! The food is absolutely delicious. The staff and their service are professional, knowledgeable and very welcoming. It’s close to the 7 hells of Beppu attractions so it makes for an easy day trip too. And if you’re looking for a public onsen experience, its sister property is a 5 minute walk from this resort. It’s a newer establishment without many reviews yet, but take my word for it, you won’t be disappointed. We truly loved our stay here and we will definitely be back.

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.

Hygiene: Extremely clean and tidy, with no unpleasant odors in the bathroom. Environment: Very close to JR Beppu Station, just a one-minute walk via a small path. It's also not far from the beach, about a 7-minute walk. Service: Smiling service, and the tempura at breakfast offered a good variety and tasted delicious. Facilities: Shared rooftop baths and a pool with the main building next door, as well as the breakfast area on the first floor. The room itself is a bit small, and the bathroom door frame is very easy to trip over.

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.

The hotel's location is excellent, right by the sea, perfect for a morning stroll. The duvet is cotton and very comfortable. The main highlight is the hot spring bath, which is incredibly relaxing.

This ryokan is located at the top of a hill and it's very quiet Place is huge and you have a private onsen though the water is scorching hot Need to put a lot of cold water so that the onsen can be used Tough part is that the leaves keep falling from outside into the onsen and you have to use the net to catch it Another issue is check-in latest is by 6pm (otherwise there's no front desk) If you are ok with the check-in constraints, then this place is pretty good

The room was very spacious and the hotel's design was beautiful, especially the private onsen – it was amazing! We drove there and parking was very convenient. It's about a 20-minute drive from Yufuin, so we could explore and then come back to relax before heading out for dinner nearby. It was a very laid-back and enjoyable stay!
