The drive in the village to get to the Osen was super narrow, so make sure to drive carefully. Besides that, the staff was lovely, easy to talk to, and super friendly. Breakfast and dinner weren't bad. I was able to relax for a few days. Thankyou.

Special, warm ryokan stay
We absolutely loved our stay. The setting was gorgeous. The onsens were so lovely. The food was great and the service was warm and friendly. We would highly recommend it. My only issue was that the bed and and pillow were both very hard.

Great stay overall. Food was excellent and onsen was great. There’s private onsen available for reservation and it’s free. Staff were very courteous and helpful. There’s nothing around the ryokan so don’t expect to have a shopping street there.

The stay is wonderful. Staffs are polite, helpful and caring, some can speak English fluently. The food is amazing, much better than other hot spring hotels. There are two private hot springs in the hotel, each room can book once with no charge. Besides, there are public hot springs where residents can use without reservation. I highly recommend this hotel to all who will visit Kurokawa spa.

Great stay in Kurokawa Onsen
We had a really enjoyable and pleasant stay. This onsen maintains a high level of professionalism while not losing any of its charm. The service was absolutely outstanding from the moment we arrived. The staff were attentive and lovely. The room was both charming and comfortable, while the food was one of the best we’ve had during our stay in Kyushu. The only small minor complaint we had was the group of Korean ladies being loud and disruptive in the otherwise quiet and peaceful bath and surroundings, and using their feet to turn on the shower tap, but that shouldn’t take away from an otherwise amazing experience.

Absolutely lovely ryokan in Kurokawa Onsen. It is located fairly centrally, right by the bus stop and a short walk to the main shopping area. We booked a room with a private onsen. It was beautiful, spacious, and immaculately clean. Meals were served in the room, and we were given a choice of the time we wanted to have them. The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The baths were lovely, with both an indoor and outdoor open air portion. They are tattoo friendly. The staff were all very kind and welcoming.
