"It was so pleasure for us to stay and experience Japanese culture in the hotel. Very surprised with their friendlyness- so nice and kind. Driver Ken was the nicest person we've ever met. He made the day for us, and he also made the high ratings of this hotel.
정말 호텔에서 역까지 데리러 와주시고, 중간에 편의점 들리고싶다니 들려주시고, 또 그다음날 점심 식사 예약 및 장소까지 또 데려다주시고 (호텔 체크아웃 이후에도). 이 호텔의 서비스는 그 어떤 4스타 5스타 호텔보다 사람을 기쁘게 해주었습니다. 심지어 기사님 Ken의 친절함은 이루 말할수없이 저희여행 시작을 따뜻하게 했습니다. 감사합니다!"

"Very nice amenities and great view! Unfortunately, when we arrived, we didn’t know which home we were staying in. We just tried the pin at each of the lockboxes until it worked. It was later that we realized each of the homes had a different name (Pool, Sauna, Garden, etc.) The hot springs tub was lovely and my kids enjoyed the outdoor pool. The kitchen was well stocked and the free drinks were very nice. Also the taxi reservation helped a lot since we didn’t have a rental car. Thank you for...

"I loved it! Despite not speaking much Japanese I had a great time. It was really easy to get to from Yufuin station by taxi since there’s a taxi stand right there. The only hard part is if you don’t have a car, getting to and from the station once the front desk closes is somewhat difficult. I brought food with me and snacks before arriving. The water temperature is perfect and the room I rented was beautiful!"

"첫 일본여행에 첫 유후인 여행이라 걱정이 많았습니다. 유후인역에 하차한 후, 그런 걱정은 바로 사라졌습니다. 한국인 직원과 수시로 소통한데다, 고객이 걱정하지 않을 수 있도록 먼저 알아서 챙겨주시는 서비스. 개인 료칸이 있는 아늑한 숙소와 친절한 직원들이 있던 너무나도 만족스러웠던 숙소입니다. 추후에 방문시에는 2박 이상을 하고 싶습니다."

"Good point is very close to JR station.
But terrible points are, no elevator, need to get heavy luggage upstairs, need to charge 1000 yen if you need to keep luggage there for a couple of hours after check out, hot spring bath available at limited time period , and the smell of the new wood in the room have give a bad day for those who are sensitive to smell, just like those people don’t smoke cannot tolerate smoking room. Think before you try provided the cost of stay is not cheap when compared...

"Sunny and the other staff were so wonderful, they helped with laundry, directions around town, taxis and so on. The rooms are large and comfortable, the upstairs terrace is lovely; all the American and Japanese toys from the last fifty years on display are fascinating; roomy, clean kitchen with pleasant, quiet and restful common room area"

"Excellent hotel in Yufuin! Location is mins walk away from Kinrin Lake so you can enjoy the excellent morning view. Hotel room is clean and comfortable, and the private onsens are really great for relaxing. Dinner and breakfast are really must try in my opinion. Staffs are all very friendly and helpful too."

"I stayed here in Nov 2024 and Jun 2025. This property is so beautiful. There is long term construction right next to the property so there is noise during the day.
Everything was perfect to have a relaxing time.

"Beautiful, modern, very tastefully decorated property. The front desk attendee was very hospitable, a warm welcome to our first time in Yufuin!
Gems is a minute walk from the station / bus stop, and is located centrally to Yufuin town. The walk to Kinrin lake was beautiful, with views of the mountain on the street.
The room we booked was incredibly spacious, and although designed for 4, did not feel too empty for 2. The bathroom is so well done and so clean, with a huge bath tub that just invites a private soak.
We would stay again next time! "
"Nice property just off the main street, near train station. It is pet friendly with 3 resident cats roaming around the lobby. You get to book 2 sessions at the baths after checked in, the semi open bath on the 2nd level is popular, while the rooftop bath may not be a good idea in cold weather although the view is great. You get free use of the bicycles for your stay. There is no lift so you have to carry your luggages up and down the stairs."
Commune with nature and explore the great outdoors at Mount Kuzumi during your travels in Taketa. While in this relaxing area, you can enjoy the restaurants.
