Breakfast is awesome with diversity food from local, Japanese style and some from Western, satisfied about that point. Also, onsen with Beppu city night view, mountains and bonus swimming pools, tent sauna in rooftop is great experience.

You have 2 building, old and new, all good facilities and convinience functions are in new building right now, from old building, we have to go down by elevator and claim stairs to get in to new building again, sometime we feel it is not comfortable. May be next time I will book rooms in new building for getting full great experience. Room in old building is narrow and sound isolated is bad, I can hear sound from next room. Light switches is also not function I want for controlling the light. For parking lot for car, you have to pay 600¥ per day, why it is not free when rent cost for yours hotel is higher than others.

Amanek includes 2 buildings, the Yula-re and the Inn. The Yula-re gives slightly fancier vibes and that's where the breakfast buffet, smoking room, sento, rooftop pool, gym and jacuzzi are located. I stayed next door at the Amanek Inn. The lobby is very modern and on the first floor there's a little library where you can read or simply relax. There's also a massage place on the same floor along with a microwave. There's only one lift for the building. The staff is friendly and accommodating, will store your luggage and provide great restaurant recommendations. My room was on the top floor in the corner and had possibly the best view, particularly at sunrise. The room size was ok for a solo traveller with a regular size suitcase. Loved that I could connect my phone to the TV seamlessly. Towels, slippers and yukata are provided in the room along with toiletries. FYI - sento and pool are located next door and you will have to briefly walk outdoors if you stay at the Inn to reach the other building's lobby. Wish the yukatas provided at the Yula-re were available for purchase. They were so pretty. Would stay here again.

Window ledge was a bit dusty. Jacuzzi did not seem to be working. Stairs from the rooftop to the lower floor were wet and slippery, did not feel safe. There was pretty much no bench space in the bathroom but that didn't bother me. Breakfast buffet seemed a little expensive. Beware that the sento can be very crowded at certain times of the day.

If you've stayed in a Japanese business hotel, you'll love this place! It was very cost effective and the fact you can freely use the ammenities of the sister hotel, Yula Re, but at a business hotel price? Amazing! The room was small - as expected of a business hotel - but I was pleasantly surprised by the city view! I was not expecting such a wonderfull view of the eastern half of the city AND the bay! I had the cheapest room option and found the size comfortable. Although if you are a couple or have sizeable luggage, maybe go for the slightly larger room. The bathroom was compact. It did the job and it was very clean. Bed was very comfortable in comparison to other hotels I've stayed at. The hotel is tucked away behind the main street. It's barely a 3 min walk to Beppu Station and close to convenience stores and restaurants . From the the station it's around a 20 min bus ride to Kannawa / The hells. While lots of shopping, dining, and Beppu Tower are all within easy walking distance. You can get buses everywhere from Beppu Station so the location is extremely convenient! The thing that really made this hotel stand out was the rooftop pool in the sister hotel. Even though the "Inn" is the budget friendly option - the two buildings are so well integrated and it feels like part of one big complex. The view at sunset and evening are particularly stunning. Beppu Tower looks gorgeous lit up at night! Even if you're not into public pools, this hotel is worth booking just for access to the amazing night view of the city. Trust me, you won't regret it.

For the amazing price - I can't fault it! Only complaint was the cleanliness of the pool late at night - a lot of kids were leaving lots of snot floating around the water. But that's more a negative about the guests than the actual ammenities. Tattoos are also not allowed in the pool. You can cover them up, so an easy fix! Although, I wished that this information was provided prior to the sign at the pool entrance. Being told online or on the checkin information slip would've been helpful. I genuinely really enjoyed my stay and I will happily return here next time I'm in Beppu!

The public heated pool was extremely spacious and offered great views of the city! I also loved relaxing at the onsen, which was very big and also had a great view. The laundry facilities were very much appreciated, as we had a lot of dirty clothing. The staff were extremely helpful at not only checking in, but also helping us order pizza late at night when we were too tired to go out for dinner. I absolutely will be coming back to this hotel at some point. It is one of the best hotels I've ever stayed at!

Some clearer signage between the two adjacent Amanek buildings would be appreciated. We initially tried to check-in at the wrong Amanek hotel, since they are both right next to each other.

Loved how we could use the onsen and pool facilities at the fancier hotel next door. It made our stay such good value. The room was a bit small with the bed pushed against the wall, but that’s not unusual for Japan. I didn’t find the room dirty, which I was concerned about based on other reviews. Maybe if I looked closely at the corners for dust I would have but I felt clean and comfortable in the room. Good location, maybe 5-10 minute walk from the train station and lots of food around. We parked overnight in a car park on the street behind for 1000 yen (つるみカーパーク on Google maps) as the Venus Gallery car park next door was quite expensive. Entrance to the hotel was a bit hard to find by car, as it’s set back from the street. Would stay again.

Great stay! Located only a few minutes from the Beppu station. While our hotel did not have onsens, the other one located in the nearby building has them, and the guests are allowed to use it. You will need to go outside of the hotel to enter the other building. The onsens were great and helped us to relax our muscles after long walking days. The hotel also has a massage center located on the 2nd floor. I got foot massage, the experience was great and relaxing overall, but I was provided with a pair of shorts, that seemed to be worn already and smelled like sweat, so I got massage in my cloths instead. The bathroom is a little bit outdated, has signs of mold and had musty smell when we left the door closed over night. Considering the price, location and onsens, overall we had a good experience!

This hotel offers an amazing value - the hotel itself is a basic one, but nice and clean. The real value is that it offers free access to all the amenities of the other neighboring AMANEK Hotel which is a marvel. The breakfast is an amazing feast offering the best from the region. There is an amazing onsen on the 14th floor and a rooftop pool on the 15th floor overlooking the whole city - and it's all yours. The location of the hotel is also great, a short walk away from Beppu station and you can also reach the famous Kannawa onsen area with a short bus ride from the station. I look forward to returning to this hotel and Beppu, this stay was the highlight of my entire Japan trip.

Check in is from 15:00 and when I arrived to the hotel at 14:30, I could not occupy my room. In most European hotels it would not be an issue, but as I see it's a generic approach in Japan that it's not really possible to check in before the official check in time. Anyway, the front desk staff was nice, they suggested me a great place for a quick lunch, so at the end it was not an issue that I could check in only after 15:00.

Amenek Inn Beppu is the annex of Amenk hotel, which is just 10 meters away across a courtyard. The annex has only rooms and reception, coin laundry and a relax room (vending machines and microwave), for the main services you need to reach the main building, where you will find the restaurant, with an amazing breakfast ranging from traditional Japanese to continental to European, the onsen (14th floor, both indoor and outdorr) and the open air pool on the 15th floor. The room is spacey (could open two large trunks on the floor) and the bed super comfortable. The desk as well is ample and well equipped.

I’ve visited Beppu several times and stayed at various hotels in the central Kitahama neighborhood. This gave me the best bang for my buck, with access to the adjacent building’s 14th floor onsen and rooftop pool with one of the best views in the city.

Be aware that the older annex building is slightly less up to date than the main Yula-re building it’s connected to, but you still get all those facilities.

It is located in a very quiet street, and a walking distance from the Beppu Station. Very helpful and friendly staff. I LOVED their HUGE variety of food for breakfast, and the hot spring on the 14th of the main building. The room was clean and the bed was very comfortable. I liked been able to use the washing machine & the dryer.

This is NOT the property’s problem, but there were kids screaming in the hot spring, probably because of the very hot water. It was not relaxing for me one afternoon. Maybe a sign on the onsen door warning (the parents?) about the temperature of the water?
