Ryokan Yayanoyu, hotel in Kumamoto

12 miles from Kumamoto Castle in Ueki, Ryokan Yayanoyu provides accommodations with access to a hot spring bath and open-air bath.

When searching for a ryokan with a private in room hot spring , (onsen), I came across Yanyanoyu and it’s a literal “Heaven on earth.” From the moment we arrived, the manager Kondo and the staff made us feel welcomed and went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable. I mentioned I lost my phone in Tokyo before arriving and Kondo took it upon himself to phone the police station to double check if my phone was turned in. There is a small bar/rest area where we had self serve alcohol and soft drinks, coffee, and sweets (due to it being the owner’s birthday month; lucky us)! We got to pick our own yukatas to wear and I was provided a small bag of Mimi (not sure the correct name) cosmetics that included face cream, lotion, and cleanser. We stayed in the room that starts with “Z” and it was very spacious. The hot spring bath was surrounded by lush garden and the cold water hose allowed us to tone down the bath water if it was too hot. I saw someone else complain about that shower temperature— that is false; you simply need to wait a few minutes for the shower water to heat up. Breakfast and dinner was immaculate; the chef studied in Italy and Japan so we had a fusion of Japanese/Italian meals; Kondo also served us drinks after each course! The dinner area faces a very intimate garden. Also, I appreciated the jazz music played throughout the Ryokan. Other attendants we’re very kind in providing us water and towels as needed. Additionally, Kondo took us to a local town, paid for our tickets to the museum and showed us local sites including cherry blossom lane. And when we needed to head to the airport, Kondo drove us himself. As an avid traveler, this ryokan is a gem providing 5 star service all while situated in a place that feels down to earth — and the employees that go above and beyond to display their kindness. We hope to come back! Arigatou ☺️

    The reception is very friendly and fluent in English. The location is a bit away from the concentrated activities area. Also meaning that it is quiet at night. The space of the room is superb and provided the option to sleep on floor (tatami) with futon if the bed is doesn't suit the need. Very clean with washing machine in the room. The washing machine doesn't come with dryer, but the clothes can be hanged in the bathroom that they will dry up in around 2 hours.

    This is a small family run ryokan. The owner - Hiro san and wife offered great hospitality and helped us to carry our heavy luggage to our rooms. We like the dinner prepared by them... it was delicious and taste home cooked. We feel 'at home'. The tatami room is comfortable for 2 paxs. Though it's a small ryokan, all the amenities are provided adequately. There's parking beside ryokan, just have to pay. Would love to stay here again.

    We had an amazing stay at the Tamaki Ryokan in Kumamoto. The room was a gorgeous tatami room, and was very clean and cozy. We also loved waking up to a delicious home-cooked breakfast. The owners kindness and hospitality was one of the highlights of our time in Japan, and they were very accommodating when we asked to store our luggage there on the day of our departure. We hope to stay here again next time we are in Kumamoto, and would highly recommend this ryokan to others.
