What a great find! A “traditional” ryokan onsen experience in a modern building. Love the spacious room with western beds and a raised platform futon/seating area with large windows overlooking the river! There’s attached toilet with sink but no shower/bath in the room but we love showering in the onsen. There are 3 onsen rooms (2 with outdoor pool). First come first serve. Tablet in the room will let you know when they’re occupied/available. You lock the door to the onsen room so essentially you have your private onsen experienced!!! The Japanese buffet breakfast is excellent and substantial. Love the dining room- there’s a loft area as well. If you love the onsen experience, you’ll love Enokiya Ryokan. And the front desk staff are super nice!!! Note: they didn’t offer half board on the days we stayed. I’d recommend doing the half board because trying to find dinner in Yufuin can be difficult. Always ask front desk to call to make dinner reservations for you…

The staff were exceptional, friendly and very helpful. They went out of their way to make sure our stay was comfortable and to assist in any way they could. A special thank you to the chef of the Pub/Restaurant who cooked a superb meal for us when we did not have a booking, and to the staff who assisted and translated for us. It was one of the best meals we had in Japan and a fantastic experience. Thank you all very much. The location is excellent with views of the mountains and river, and car parking on site. It is very close to the beautiful shops which were fun to explore. The Onsen's were great and very clean, with indoor and outdoor options. We would love to return!

location, comfort, cleanliness

The warm and pretty decor of the room. Love the ryokan with both a touch of the modern and traditional. The great location of the ryokan was most definitely a winner. The staff was also very friendly and helpful.

A room for three, with 2 single beds and a futon was the same room size as a room for 2, but the price for the room was double that of the room for 2. That wasn't very rightly priced.

Nice hotel .New facility. Nice staff

None

I think the Enokiya Ryokan is the best hotel on this earth in my professional opinion... In all seriousness, the staff goes above and beyond to accommodate my needs. The place itself is beautiful. The Onsen's are pristine and lovely. The breakfast is amazing! The location is central and convenient. I will be back again and again. Thank you Enokiya and your wonderful staff!

Nothing this is my favorite place.

The perfect balance of modern convenience and traditional Japan. The facility is modern and minimalist, with Japanese architectural and design elements that remind you of the historic surroundings.

The bed was a little hard for my preference. The frosting on the window on the "Mountain view" side almost completely obscured the view. I would suggest the River view for future travelers.

Good location, close to the main business street and face to a river. Brand new building, the modern lobby perfect joined a Japanese heritage building with the restaurant, modern and quiet Japanese style bed rooms. I would like to recommend the one stay with two meals plan. The dinner was amazing. The Kindly staff can speak good English.

Only three hot spring bath rooms are available and there aren’t any in-room showers but toilets. A little bit inconvenient with hot spring lovers.

Exactly as the picture, whole Ryokan has good interior design. Very comfortable and spacious. Really enjoyed private Onsen located at ground level, home made breakfast was delicious. Next street is shopping street full of nice souvenirs and food. highly recommend this accomodation!

The rooms are huge and well lit. They have a lot of amenities, like books or tea/coffee. Good lighting. Staff speaks great English and was very helpful. Private onsen were great

Beds too hard. I know that Japanese like hard mattresses, but this one was not comfortable
