月洸樹 由布院

I stayed here on a weekday.About 2 hours by car from my home in Fukuoka City, I went to "Gekkoju Yufuin" in Yufuin Town, Oita District, Oita Prefecture.I knew about Tsukikoju in Kurokawa Onsen (Kumamoto), but I heard that it was opening in Yufuin in 2023, and I had heard from many of my fellow travelers that they were interested. I decided to go there right away. As stated on the website, it is a luxury villa, so the price is reasonable, but when I actually visited and stayed there, I felt a lot of special feeling.Most hotels, including luxury hotels, have a box-like building-like feel, and when you think of inns, you think of tradition and cuisine.Gekkoju Yufuin has a short history, but it's not like a regular hotel or a hotel. Rather than comparing it to an inn, I felt that the words ``enjoy (or take advantage of) the sense of Tsukikoju'' were perfect.I won't write about it here, but the sense of the owner is fully evident, and Tsukikoju Yufuin has accumulated a lot of experience without being influenced by modern trends. You can see the high quality just by looking at each item.[About the accommodation]The all-suite villa I stayed in was [Shuka] near the parking lot, and it was a designer room with much of the furniture made by Cassina, as well as custom-made and very luxurious items, and home appliances. We also have simple items with the latest functionality.Drinks are basically free (some are paid), so when you open the refrigerator or shelf, it's helpful to find popular drinks such as Perrier or Coca-Cola, and it's great that you don't have to pay extra for it. .By the way, the glass was made by Baccarat and was very impressive in its weight and beauty, which was different from Riedel.[About hot springs]I love hot springs and have visited Yufuin many times.There are two main types of hot springs in Yufuin. In the area up the hill from the Self-Defense Forces camp, there is a hot spring called Aoyu (it has a thick, slightly blue color), but the other one (Gekkoju) has a smooth moisturizing effect and is not addictive. I thought it had a warm quality that everyone would like.[About the environment]It is located in the Yufuin Kawakami district, and when you look at the map, you can see that there are various inns in the surrounding area surrounding the Gekiju tree, and it is not crowded, so it is a very good place to have a "private room". .Last but not least, it was a very pleasant stay, and as you can see from my travel destinations (other reviews), I mainly visited Kyushu's history and culture. As one of them, it was very impressive, and it was precious to be able to spend time there as if it were my own home.It's still new, so I'm really looking forward to its future evolution ^^

It is an underrated product as it only has 5 stars. In reality, even 10 items are not enough. I don't know of any accommodation with higher cost performance than this. It's a price tag that makes it seem like it's worth it just for the cost of the food. It's classy, ​​but not expensive.The dish served had a convincing taste, as if it had been updated to a modern version of a top-notch restaurant in Kyoto. Season with a knife and time, and let the temperature change. All the ingredients come to life in your mouth, dancing and eating. You feed with your eyes, and the atmosphere makes you want to eat. I don't have enough space, so I'll include a photo.Another thing worth mentioning is the quality of the staff's service. Please provide mental barrier-free access. Educated people will illuminate the next step and guide you two steps ahead. Truly a cabin attendant on land! ️The warm and friendly customer service was even more soothing than the hot springs.In addition, everything about Cassina's furniture, spring quality, amenities, floor plan, etc. far exceeded our expectations, and we were able to enjoy a special daily life, an emotional experience that goes beyond what words can express! I'll just write it down.I would like to express my gratitude to all the staff members and the management team who took care of us this time.I hope that we will stay here regularly in Yufuin from now on and look forward to the next time.

It's the best

Wish I could give this one more stars. Worth every penny. I found this by accident as I was staying at the ryokan above it. I checked out if the ryokan early to stay here. Best decision ever. You can choose your own villa - I went with Kohaku, which means amber. It had amber tones in the gorgeous interior design. Every part of this stay was high end. Living room, kitchen, terrace, indoor and outdoor hot tubs, sauna, heated towel rack… it has it all. All the products they put in the room were high end. My fiancé is tracking down the blow dryer to buy one for herself. To top it off, the hospitality was incredible. Akaya is the sweetest person who made our stay truly special. She speaks fluent English, and helped us with everything. This is the definition of a hidden gem.

Super hot spring hotel. The room is huge. All snacks, drinks, ice cream, red and white wine are free. The service is first-rate. Kid-friendly.Free in-room massage + rickshaw tour around Yufuin (it is recommended to check in as early as possible)Dinner is also very good chef👍Breakfast is simple but still delicious
