Resonate Club Kuju

I've actually stayed at Resonate Club Kuju a few times. The hot springs are delicious, but the food is also very good. If you're staying for one night, I highly recommend the Meteor Course, a Western-style course. Breakfast is a Japanese and Western buffet. This time I chose a plan with breakfast, but I'm actually a member, so I get special benefits every time I stay here, and I had a dinner voucher, so I used that voucher. I usually make reservations through the member site, but for some reason, the member site was fully booked that day, so I made a reservation through Trip.com. The hot spring is brownish, as the name Benigara no Yu suggests, but it moisturizes your skin and feels very comfortable when you enter. The water in the open-air bath is cloudy due to the hot spring ingredients, so be careful of steps. Unfortunately, it was raining during the rainy season this time, but in the summer, there are no buildings around, and the starry sky is beautiful, and you can see the Milky Way and shooting stars. When I told the front desk at check-out that I couldn't get a reservation this time, they said that a group had come. The front desk staff were very friendly, and I would like to stay here again next time. I recommend it.

I stayed at the hotel with a plan that included a breakfast buffet, and overall it was a very satisfying stay. It was the last day of Golden Week, so there were few guests, so the hot springs were all to myself both in the morning and evening, and I was able to relax and relax😊 There are no restaurants around the hotel, so I recommend a plan that includes meals at the restaurant on the premises. (Snacks, alcohol, and light meals were available at the hotel's shop) The only thing that was disappointing was that the bar lounge was closed on the day of my stay. I regret that I should have checked before booking💨 I would like to stay here again if I'm in the area!

The hotel is located on Kuju Mountain in Kuju Prefecture, which is the mountain across Aso City from Aso Volcano. You must drive, rent a car or take a taxi to get here, and public transportation is very underdeveloped. The scenery is amazing from the moment you enter the mountain! Looking out from the hotel window is a healing green. The hotel service is very enthusiastic. They helped us move our heavy suitcases up and down, and asked us about our dietary taboos and bed arrangements before checking in. The French meal in the evening was very delicious, and they also arranged a window seat with a beautiful view. The starry sky at night is also beautiful and dreamy.

It is recommended to drive there. After all, it is on the mountain. Everything depends on the weather. If it doesn't rain, the scenery will be good. Otherwise, it is easy to get foggy. There are public hot springs to soak in, but there are many middle-aged Korean tourists, and it is very lively! The Aso red beef for dinner at the hotel is very good, highly recommended!

I stayed here with a friend to refresh myself. The TV in the room was small and there was a mirror right in front of the bed, so I would like to ask for these to be improved. However, the food was delicious and far surpassed that. Also, at dinner time, the live piano music, table arrangement, candles, and fresh flowers all made for a warm and lovely feeling. The hot spring water was mixed with red clay and had a slight iron smell, which was very pleasant. Amenities such as cleansing products are also available.

The scenery was beautiful and the food was delicious. All of the staff members were also very helpful. The hot springs were also nice. The room had a calm atmosphere and I felt relaxed. I was impressed last time as well, but there was a star observation tour near the hotel, and I had a really fun time listening to the teacher explain the stars while looking through a large astronomical telescope.

Dinner was Western food, but the Oita beef stew in red wine was very delicious. The other dishes were also beautifully presented and I was satisfied. The bread that came out for dinner was freshly baked, warm and very delicious.  Japanese food looks very delicious, but if I stay next time, I would like to try Western food again. We also enjoyed a full course of local beer, red wine, and white wine. A coffee grinder and dripper are provided in your room so you can make your own coffee. I feel healed when I spin the mill.  The large public bath is a carbonated spring with a high iron content, but I was able to take a very pleasant bath. There is no sauna, but I am very satisfied. The weather wasn't great this time, but if you stay overnight on a clear day, I think you'll be able to see the Milky Way. 

The food is delicious I was able to do it slowly
