I used it for a day trip bath.I wanted to go home after sweating in the hot summer season, but the air conditioner wasn't on...Even though I wanted to go home refreshed, I ended up sweating even more than when I arrived.Day trip bathing is not recommended at this time of year.It was a disappointing bathing experience because the facility was nice and clean.

The location is rated 4 stars because it's difficult to get to without a car, but the surrounding area was comfortable and surrounded by nature.As for the food, I was disappointed that the horse sashimi was a little frozen, but other than that it was very delicious and I was very satisfied with the taste and quantity.The rooms and hot springs were well-maintained and clean, and the staff were very friendly, so I had a comfortable stay.I wasn't able to see the Zashiki Warashi, but it was a mysterious experience that was comfortable and very enjoyable.Next time I would like to bring my parents.

Stayed at Shirasagiso for the first time. Unlike large inns, perhaps because there are fewer rooms, do they have dedicated staff? The staff is so attentive that you would think so. The food was delicious, and the calm atmosphere that matched the view of the koi pond and nature from the room window was soothing.The room had a separate family bath, so I was able to soak in the hot springs at night and in the morning.The hot springs are also very nice, and the koi pond can be seen up close, so I was able to enjoy a different view from my room, so I highly recommend it.I couldn't find any bad points, so I gave it a perfect score.

After retiring, I went on my favorite trips and stayed at dozens of hotels and inns, but Hitoyoshi Onsen Shirasagiso was wonderful.I was moved by the recovery from the disaster.The staff was wonderful, we stayed in a relaxing atmosphere, we were very satisfied with breakfast in a quiet private room, and we were treated to all the drinks and beer in the refrigerator in the room, so my husband and I were very satisfied with everything. Thank you for your help during this trip to the Hitoyoshi Restoration Campaign.

The first time was about 6 years ago, when I was at a management training camp at Hitoyoshi School of Small and Medium Enterprise College, I happened to find it online and went there for dinner two years in a row.After that, about 3 years after the heavy rain disaster in 2020, the main building was rebuilt after a temporary shopping street, which I had been curious about since I saw it on the website, but this time I was finally able to visit it for the night. TaAlthough the former historic building has disappeared, the magnificent appearance that reminds us of it allows us to feel the extraordinary enthusiasm and efforts of the staff to rebuild it.The room has a separate indoor bath, so you can relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.The most noteworthy feature is the hot springs that flow straight from the source!The mild alkali of the sodium chloride/hydrogen carbonate spring leaves your skin feeling soft and smooth.My husband and I have been to various hot springs all over the country, and I think this hot spring is definitely one of the top-ranked and highest-quality hot springs we've ever been to.The food was as delicious as ever, all made with local ingredients, and the staff's heartfelt flavors and hospitality made us very satisfied and healed our daily fatigue.Thank you very muchI would also like to visit regularly

I could feel that every step of the way, from the time we were picked up to the time we saw us off, was taken care of with great care.I was soothed by everything from the wonderful rural scenery and scents to the chirping of birds and the sound of rain falling into the pond.The temperature of the family bath was not too hot, so I was able to use it slowly.

This was my first time staying for 2 nights.The room had a clean feel as every corner of the room was thoroughly cleaned, and the hot spring water was so soft that it made my skin feel smooth after soaking in the hot spring. In addition, I was able to eat seasonal ingredients, and the dishes included a lot of vegetables, which made me very satisfied. Above all, the staff at the inn were very kind and nice. I would like to visit you again. I'm really thankful to you.

I stayed here for 2 nights. The local food was very delicious. In particular, the carp and lotus root were delicious, and the sencha that the staff brewed for breakfast was exquisite. The nearby Aoi Aso Shrine also gave me a refreshing feeling. I want to come again! It was a warm welcome that made me feel at home.

It is approximately 10 minutes by car from Hitoyoshi IC on the Kyushu Expressway, and less than 10 minutes by car from Nishi-Hitoyoshi Station and Hitoyoshi Station. Free parking is available.The front desk is on the second floor, and the public bath is on the first floor. I was healed in a quiet and relaxing space.As for the meals, we enjoyed seasonal dishes made with local ingredients. It may be a good idea to let us know in advance if you have any allergies.We were treated with courtesy from beginning to end, from the time we met us to the time we saw us off.

After the disaster, the inn was supervised by a famous good luck advisor, and there is also a zashiki warashi.Even without such prior knowledge, the hot springs you'll want to stay in for a long time, the seasonal and delicious food, and above all, the warmth of the employees, including the proprietress, are truly a hit.It's hard to say that it's easily accessible in inland Kyushu, but that's why it's so worth a visit. This is an inn that we are sure to visit again.
