Aso District Hotels with Wifi

This place is simply gorgeous. The hotel is beautifully designed to give a real zen feeling. The room was spacious enough for a family, the bed was plush (they also had tatami for those interested) and they even offered Kose skincare products in the room. It had big sliding doors that offered its own Japanese garden and quality tea set to brew your own tea in the room. The breakfast was simple but wholesome (not a single fried food in sight) and offering fresh ingredients. The only drawbacks for me was 1) there were no shower in the room, so you had to use the public bathing area and 2) this ryokan is a fair bit away from Kurokawa Onsen so it is an inconvenient if you’re looking to do some onsen-hopping. Having your own car would be ideal. If you have the time, I would highly recommend staying at the Hanashoan to experience some relaxing time.

The hotel was very quick to respond to my last-minute requests for extra guests and shuttle service. All the staff were friendly, and the meals were delicious. The bedding was clean, which was a plus, and the onsen (hot spring) was well-maintained, so I'd highly recommend it to other travelers. A unique feature is that they also have facilities for pets, so it seems you can bring your dog along. Their mascot, N-chan, was incredibly cute; I just wanted to keep looking at her!

The room was just okay, but the location on the street was convenient for transportation. Check-out was at 10 AM (usually 11 AM), and it happened to be raining that day. I was planning to switch hotels, but the next one wouldn't allow check-in until 3 PM, so I was left with nothing to do but find shelter from the rain. The meals were also very basic. So, comparatively speaking, the value for money was quite poor. However, the hotel service was good, and the staff were enthusiastic and attentive.

Really nice place to stay in, exclusive experience, you don’t really need to do any onsen hoping if you stay here, one private onsen booking per day which means 2 booking for one night stay and you have got guest only public onsen which alternate each day. They were kind enough to accommodate our vegetarian diet even though they weren’t too happy about that because they had to change their whole menu, so I would suggest checking with them before making the booking. Overall, definitely worth it.

It was raining when we arrived, so we skipped our planned itinerary and checked into the hotel early. Turns out, it was a smart decision! We got to quietly enjoy the hotel's facilities. The staff saw us parking and immediately came over to help with our luggage; we just handed them the car keys. We were able to go explore before check-in time. When it was time to enter our room, our luggage was already neatly placed inside. The hotel staff were incredibly professional, explaining all the onsen facilities, dinner, and breakfast arrangements. They even had staff who spoke English, so communication was never an issue. On the second day, it was pouring rain, and they still helped us with umbrellas and saw us off to the car. Because of the heavy rain and poor visibility, along with a narrow exit and oncoming traffic, a staff member proactively offered to switch with me and move the car to a more suitable spot. I'm very grateful for that. If I had one piece of feedback, it would be that the food taste might not suit everyone's palate. We ended up having some waste. I hope the hotel can create some dishes that appeal to a broader taste. Oh, and the dessert shop at the hotel entrance has delicious treats and good value for money. Highly recommend!

Impeccable service, they were ready to welcome us on check in, arranging for luggage to be carried to our rooms while quickly settling our check in and patiently explained their amenities. Staying at their hotel means we can also use the onsen of their two sister hotel’s public onsen - one just opposite and the other one in Kurokawa onsen town (featuring cave onsens). But we look the onsen in this hotel best as the outdoor onsen overlooks a river and waterfalls. Truly an amazing experience. Our stay included breakfast and dinner, and while Ryokan meals are always sumptuous, we felt the taste and variety were slightly underwhelming, but still delicious. Rooms were spacious with great amenities and ours even had a tea room. Overall a highly recommended hotel, especially if you are driving.

I love the interior of this resort. The staff members are really friendly and helpful. I had little knowledge in selecting local onsen resort, so my initial expectation was not high. Much to my surprise, I love everything this hotel has had. Facility wise everything looks brand new. The room is spacious and comfy. The public bath and indoor onsen are big and clean. As for the meals, the presentations were good and they were delicious. I have no complaint about it. Keep up with the good work. Look forward to staying there again.

The whole experience was fantastic! The inn lives up to its name, surrounded by mountains and forests, with the sound of the river and the aroma of burning longan wood, taking the sensory experience to another level! Every service was incredibly attentive! Unfortunately, I couldn't eat much, but both dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious! After a hot spring bath, you absolutely must try the Kurokawa milk and coffee milk! It was superb and so enjoyable! The only downside is that it's a bit far from town, but having the shuttle service is really great! I'll definitely visit again if I get the chance, and staying for a few nights would be even more enjoyable!

Our ryokan stay was overall a really enjoyable experience. The room and view were amazing, we booked one of the newly built room types, which leaned more towards a modern Western-style design while still keeping the ryokan atmosphere. The room was beautiful, and comfortable. Amenities were thoughtfully provided, and we were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary minibar with a variety of drinks, crafted drip coffee bags, and even in-room draft beer, which was a huge plus for us. The meals exceeded our expectations as well. Portions were very generous and everything we had was goo, making both dinner and breakfast a highlight of the stay. The in-room onsen did have a slightly unusual smell, which is probably due to the natural mineral content of the hot spring water, though it may take some getting used to. The main downside, which we were already aware of before booking, was the location. The ryokan is about 30–40 minutes from Kurokawa Onsen Village, and there is only one shuttle service timing per day. This made our schedule quite restricted, so it would be much better if they could offer more shuttle time options for guests. As for the service, the staff were generally friendly and helpful despite the language barrier. Only one of the staff members spoke English clearly enough for easy communication, but everyone still tried their best to assist us.

The main plus this location , if you want to be quiet alone with nature ... Early in the morning even the deer breakfasted opposite our terrace 🦌 The common swimming pools were very much liked , the water was hot as you wanted . The room in Japanese style was taken and it corresponds to the mood , I wanted to enter Japanese culture . The hotel owners helped us in this 🙏 All staff very kind . Food is very delicious , for two nights different menus . Thank you the chef of the chef 🙏 It was my birthday and I spent a great time . The Recan fulfilled our expectations 💫
