Hotels in Beppu

"Absolutely fantastic! Highly recommended it to anyone going to Beppu. The location is very convenient, right next to Beppu Station. It's easy to get there from anywhere. The family room has four single beds with a partition in the middle, and the whole family agreed that this was the best hotel we stayed at during our entire trip to Kyushu. The breakfast offers many options, and in the evening, there are ramen and ice cream. Although we didn't have time to wait for the private hot spring, the public baths were very satisfying! There are both outdoor and indoor baths, allowing us to completely relax after a tiring day. This hotel is definitely a must-stay when visiting Beppu."

"Excellent hotel! I originally planned to stay at a traditional onsen hotel in Beppu, but I stumbled upon this one, saw great reviews, and decided to give it a try. I was extremely satisfied! The breakfast was the most lavish and delicious I had during my 9-day trip to Japan. It was absolutely divine! In the evenings, complimentary welcome drinks are offered (alcoholic beverages incur a 1000 yen charge). You can borrow yukata from the front desk. There's a large public bath on the 14th floor, and the rooftop features a terrace pool and a bar, offering stunning night views of Beppu Tower, perfect for photos. Just note, the pool is quite shallow and not really suitable for serious swimmers. The bathroom layout is well-designed with a separate wet and dry area, and the shower space is very spacious. Its prime location is another major plus, just a 10-minute walk to JR Beppu Station. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Beppu!"

"The atmosphere was very relaxing and chill — perfect for couple and a group getaway. The staff were friendly and very helpful throughout our stay. One little thing - the bathroom door of this room type is somehow translucent sliding door, no lock, which can be a bit uncomfortable when staying with a group. A normal one would offer more privacy. Overall, a great experience!"

"This hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of Beppu's Hells, with attractions literally on its doorstep. All five Hells (Jigoku) are within a 3-5 minute walk, which is incredibly convenient! While the hotel's exterior is unassuming, its interior is a hidden gem. The Japanese garden in the common areas is beautiful. Our room was spacious with a great view, allowing us to see the steam rising from the Hells. Plus, having a private onsen in the room meant we could soak to our heart's content! We even had the large public bath all to ourselves during our visit. The Teppanyaki set meal we booked was a good experience, though we wished there was a little more meat. We specifically requested Japanese-style breakfast when booking, but for some reason, we were given Western-style instead. When we inquired, the staff informed us that it couldn't be changed. On a very positive note, it was our wedding anniversary trip, and the hotel thoughtfully prepared a small gift and took commemorative photos for us – a very nice touch! Aside from these minor issues, everything else was fantastic. The only real downside was the hotel's shuttle service to the station. While they offer it, the last departure is strictly before 11 AM. If you miss it, you have to take a taxi. It feels a bit inconvenient to offer a service with such a limited timeframe. For instance, we visited the Hells in the morning and ended up leaving the hotel after 11 AM, so we had to take a taxi to the JR station. An improvement here would be much appreciated! Overall, my husband, who was visiting Japan for the first time, said it was an excellent Japanese onsen hotel experience. He gives it a big thumbs up!"

"This is an older hotel, and while the decor and furnishings show their age, everything is functional and well-maintained. It's a good option if you don't mind a slightly dated aesthetic. **Pros:** The location is incredibly convenient, with plenty of restaurants nearby that stay open late. The hotel has an elevator, and parking is free. A very generous buffet breakfast is included, and there's also a large public bath. A significant bonus is its ability to accommodate large families, even groups of up to ten people!"

"The entryway is very spacious, and the room itself is surprisingly large, even bigger than it appears in the photos. The sea view is beautiful, and soaking in the hot spring at night felt just like having a private onsen. There's a bus stop right outside, with direct service to Chinoike Jigoku (Blood Pond Hell). Beppu Kitahama is right next door, and Don Quijote is just a short walk further. While it's a bit of a walk from Beppu Station, staying right by the sea often means sacrificing a little bit of convenience."

"In general, the price of S3,000 per night is too bad for the price-performance ratio. We booked one night and two meals. The breakfast variety is acceptable. The only meat is a pitiful amount of fried pork belly. There is no cooked food. Then there is rice, porridge, and noodle soup. The fruits are kiwis, bananas, oranges, and red-fleshed oranges that are cut into small pieces. There are only these four kinds. Although there is nothing to eat in the morning, it is good to have rice to fill your stomach. Dinner is even worse. You have to buy alcohol and drinks by yourself. The set meal has six dishes, and the plating is very small and not delicate. My husband is not full every night, so he has to go back to the hotel for instant noodles after dinner. The hot spring water is very good and the open-air hot spring is also very comfortable. Except for the fake politeness of the front desk every time they passed by, there was no service at all. Bad review"

"Kamenoi Hotel Beppu offers a delightful blend of comfort and convenience. Just a 5-minute walk from JR Beppu Station, its location is ideal for exploring the city's renowned hot springs . The spacious rooms are well-equipped, and the hotel's onsen facilities provide a relaxing experience after a day of sightseeing . Guests appreciate the friendly staff and the variety of dining options available on-site . Overall, Kamenoi Hotel Beppu is a great choice for travelers seeking a comfortable stay in Beppu."

"An absolutely fantastic onsen ryokan with a superb, prime beachfront location. It was the most affordable onsen ryokan I booked for this trip, yet it turned out to be the most delightful surprise. The tall gentleman at the front desk provided absolutely outstanding service! He was so warm and friendly, and his sincerity truly shone through. Much appreciated! Definitely make sure to reserve the private open-air onsen on the 6th floor. Soaking in the onsen while watching the sunset is such a blissful experience. The room we booked also came with its own private onsen. It offers incredible value for money. All the staff members were incredibly polite, and the breakfast was delicious too! I absolutely adore Beppu city!"

"The hotel is situated 15 minutes taxi ride from the Beppu station. So we have nowhere to go that night. But it's good enough to have hotspring and drinks in the hotel. The staff is very polite and can explain what you can do in English. Then you were lead to the room and tips rejected. We booked the Kaiseki dinner and breakfast. The dinner time is either 6pm or 6:30pm and the breakfast time 8am or 8:30. The dinner is good but maybe my expectation is quite high, it didn't reach my expectation, especially for the sashimi. For the onsen, there are 4 private onsens and 2 public. One of the private onsens is closed. Therefore we can use 3. You can use the private onsen when it is not occupied. Just lock the door and turn the plate to the other side. But all the onsen are closed by 12 midnight. And there is a room with free flow beer and soda, but it closes at 10pm. Don't drink beer before taking hotspring. There is also an onsen in our room which can be used anytime. It's hot at night but not so hot in the next morning. Overall, the view is good. The staff is good. The food is good (just not so great) and the onsens are good. Beppu is a good place to stay a few days more"
