About
Shimizu Ryokan in Yufuin Onsen is an old folk house-style inn built with traditional construction methods, creating a cozy establishment with just nine rooms that carries 93 years of heritage while remaining clean and well-maintained. The ryokan offers an incredible onsen experience with both a private hot spring that can be booked and a remarkable public onsen featuring a cave and outdoor section, where the excellent quality water leaves skin and hair feeling noticeably softer. Nestled in a peaceful Japanese countryside setting, the property creates a scenic, relaxing atmosphere complete with a memorable first-floor fireplace where guests can sit with drinks and snacks, all enhanced by the exceptionally kind, welcoming staff who create a heart-warming experience for visitors.
