    チェックインからチェックアウトまで他の宿泊客と密にならない対策が徹底されていました。食事は個室食でより美味しくいただきました。また、お風呂は源泉かけ流しの部屋風呂で何度でも入浴がかない、窓から見る由布岳は絶景でした。決して華やかではない由布の夜景には癒されました。由布院駅から宿、宿から由布院駅に異なるルートで徒歩行動しました。粉雪が舞い足元が滑る感じがありましたが、30分程の距離で生活と自然が身近になり徒歩もおすすめです。今度は晩秋に訪れてみたいと思います。お世話になりました。

    ホテルと旅館の中間の様な宿泊施設。ロビーや受付などはこじんまりしていて旅館の様な豪奢な感じは無い。建物などは新しいく気持ちが良いが作りも贅を尽くしたといういう感じではなく見栄えよく作ってある。全客室に付いている半露天風呂のお風呂とそこから見えるお庭、景色は素晴らしいくこの宿の魅力であると思う。ある画家さんと提携しているのか、その方の絵があちこちに飾ってありかなりの主張がある(個人的にだが好みでは無かったので残念)温泉街からは少し離れている。ホスピタリティは過ぎるくらいある。狭い通路に何人もお出迎えは少々圧迫感を感じるが、大変な一生懸命さは伝わる。良い旅になりましたありがとうございました!

    父の命日のお墓参りの帰りに、80代の母と50代の兄と3人で初めて宿泊しました。他の宿泊施設と比べて少し贅沢かな?っと思いましたが、実家の家族だけの旅行は後にも先にも無いかもとコチラヘ決めました。お部屋も広めで温泉付きで時間気にせず入れ、お庭からの良い香り(森林浴っぽい)がすると兄が気に入っていました。お料理は夜は洋風の豪華なコースで手の込んだ料理に感動。朝は、和風で全て美味しく大満足でした。お出迎えや食事、お見送りでのスタッフの徹底したおもてなしの心が伝わり本当に良い思い出になりました。母も子供2人との旅行は、とても嬉しかったようです。是非、また訪れたいお宿です。ありがとうございました
