Spa Hotels in Beppu

A cozy inn in the Kannawa area. Perfect for those who want to avoid spending time traveling, as it's close to the ”Hell Tour” hot springs. We enjoyed all-you-can-eat wagyu steak, a buffet, and à la carte dishes brought to our table, ensuring we could eat piping hot food. Alcohol and soft drinks were also all-you-can-drink. I wanted to try everything, but unfortunately, I'm getting older and can't eat as much. The hot springs had a limited variety of baths, but bath towels and regular towels were available in the main bath, so it was nice to be able to use fresh ones each time. I would like to visit again with my family if I have the opportunity.

Hoshino Resorts KAI Beppu | Immersed in Japanese Aesthetics, Ocean-View Onsen is Super Healing— The hotel environment is clean and tidy, and the Japanese bathhouse, in particular, is much more tranquil and spotless than many Japanese ryokans; it's truly in a different league. There's not a speck of dust in any corner, and the bathrooms, tatami mats, and floor-to-ceiling windows are all sparkling clean and clear, perfect for germaphobes. The architecture is modern Japanese style, designed by Kengo Kuma. The wooden corridors and washi paper lanterns create a fantastic ambiance. All guest rooms directly face Beppu Bay, offering a stunning 'picture frame' view to watch the sunrise over the ocean from your bed. However, the room type I booked did not include a private onsen. The public hot springs are divided into indoor and open-air sections; the saline onsen water is incredibly smooth, leaving you feeling completely soothed and relaxed after a soak. There's also a free foot bath in the lobby, perfect for resting your feet and enjoying the sea view anytime. The service upholds Hoshino's consistently meticulous and thoughtful standards. The staff are gentle and polite, assisting with check-in, explaining in-house activities, and there are even evening performances and local cultural experiences. The hotel shop offers a good selection of local specialty souvenirs to purchase. Transportation is also very convenient, just a ten-minute walk from Beppu Station. The hotel is located by the coast, making it easy to stroll and explore the seaside promenade. The 'one night, two meals' kaiseki dinner features exquisite local seafood and ingredients from Oita, presented beautifully with a delicate and refined flavor. For breakfast, you can choose between Japanese and Western options. The Japanese breakfast includes a 'jigoku mushi' set meal with a rich variety, offering a balanced combination of fresh fish, steamed vegetables, and miso soup. Tip: Be sure to book your breakfast time well in advance with the hotel, otherwise an early slot can be quite inconvenient.

Security: pin code on dormitory. Amenities: there is a kitchen space and you can also order food from the 5th floor of the tower to the hostel lounge.

Other: might be useful if there were bins in the dormitory rather than having to go back and forth between the lounge. hooks in the bed area might also be useful e.g. for hanging your towel, although I suppose you could put it in your locker

Every floor in the hotel has a self-service welcome tea machine, which is really refreshing after a hot spring bath. It's only a ten-minute walk from Beppu Station, so even with luggage, it's not a hassle. It's an old-style Japanese inn, and you can book a private hot spring bath for 700 yen (500 for usage, 200 for tax). It's a true hot spring, and a soak washes away all the fatigue. They offer free luggage storage, which is very convenient. There's also a large, affordable supermarket nearby.

The hotel's location is excellent, right by the sea, perfect for a morning stroll. The duvet is cotton and very comfortable. The main highlight is the hot spring bath, which is incredibly relaxing.

We had a very nice stay. The room was very pleasant, with a lovely view, and the welcome was very kind. The accommodation is also very well located, close to the sea. Free services are also available, such as the onsen and bicycles. Nothing to complain about, everything was great!

Kannawa is close to many attractions, and the owners are friendly. Translation software made communication smooth, and I confirmed my dining and check-out times upon arrival. The rooms were clean and quiet, and the open-air baths were practically like having your own private bath during off-peak hours. The area was safe at night, and you could freely wander around Kannawa. I visited Beppu's eight hot springs and seven hells, and around 11 PM, I also went to the nearby Kura Onsen. Since Kura was deserted at night, I essentially had it all to myself. The meal includes the hell bath, so you don't need to eat there repeatedly. Providing a menu would be even better.

The receptionist was courteous. The other staff members were also considerate. The rooms are clean and have plenty of amenities. The breakfast was luxurious and filling.

After reading other reviews, they were all overwhelmingly positive. Having stayed in numerous hotels, the ANA InterContinental Beppu definitely ranks in my top three. First, let's talk about transportation: Beppu Station is quite small. Remember to exit from the West Exit (this was told to us by the hotel shuttle driver; apparently, many international guests wait for a long time at the East Exit only to find out it's the West Exit). The hotel is about a twenty-minute drive away. Next, the service: What was really surprising is that more than half of the hotel staff are non-Japanese. Every single foreign staff member spoke excellent Japanese, with perfect mastery of honorifics. Finally, the room facilities: The onsen (hot spring bath) is small but beautiful. The infinity pool isn't very deep, making it suitable for children. It was still a bit chilly in March, but luckily, there's a warm pool nearby where you can soak for a while. The restaurant offers great value for money. Children aged 6-12 get half price, which is around 2,700 yen. In the evening, there's an all-you-can-drink option for adults at 5,000 yen, including sparkling wine, house wine, shochu, and beer.

The capsule was clean and very well-located, less than a 10-minute walk from Beppu Station and just 5 minutes from Takegawara Onsen, where you can enjoy a unique sand bath! The on-site onsen with a sauna, which is included in the price, was a fantastic amenity. Just one thing to note: there are no showers on the capsule floor, so you'll need to use the facilities within the onsen area.
