forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.59 out of 5 (774 reviews). This Yufuin onsen ryokan has detached rooms that come with an indoor bath or a semi-open-air rock bath. Because the family can bathe on their own in the room's bath, even parents with small children who are not yet ready for a communal bath can relax without worrying about other guests. You can choose between Japanese-style tatami rooms and Japanese-Western rooms.

Overview
Yufuin Onsen Yufuintei is an inn in Yufuin Onsen where all 16 rooms are detached. Each room has either an indoor bath finished in hinoki cypress or a semi-open-air bath carved out of rock, so the family can enjoy the onsen on their own, in privacy. There are also open-air baths, separate for men and women, where Yufuin Onsen water flows 100% straight from the source and which can be used 24 hours a day. Elementary school children are served a mini kaiseki, children under school age get a kids' plate, and children's yukata are provided too. The inn cannot accommodate allergies, so please confirm with the inn in advance.
Rooms
All 16 rooms at Yufuintei are detached, so your privacy is assured in quiet surroundings. The Japanese-style tatami room with an indoor bath finished in hinoki cypress has two tatami rooms and sleeps 1 to 4 guests. The Japanese-Western room sleeps 1 to 2 guests, with a Western-style area holding two semi-double beds and a tatami space to relax in. Another Japanese-Western room, the closest to the main building, is 15 sq m, sleeps 1 to 3 guests and has a hinoki cypress indoor bath. There is also a Japanese-style tatami room for 1 to 3 guests with a semi-open-air bath carved out of rock, and a 16 sq m Japanese-Western room for 1 to 3 guests, likewise with a semi-open-air bath. Every room type has a set children's rate. A room for 6 guests is also available; please inquire in advance if you would like to use it.
Dining
Dinner is served from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. and breakfast from 8 a.m. to 9 a.m., in the dining area. Elementary school children are served a mini kaiseki: the same main dish as the adults, plus the adult kaiseki course with items such as vinegared dishes and delicacies taken out. If your child does not care for kaiseki cuisine, you can switch to the kids' meal menu by letting the inn know by the day before. Children under school age get a kids' plate with dishes such as Hamburg steak and karaage (Japanese fried chicken), at both dinner and breakfast. Some plans let you eat in a private room in the dining area, but a private room's table can be served for only up to 4 adults, so if your party is larger than that once children are counted, eating in the main dining area is recommended.

Baths and Onsen

Family-Friendly Features
Because the indoor bath or semi-open-air bath in your room is for your family alone, you can enjoy the onsen with a young child without worrying about other guests. Children's yukata are provided as well. On the other hand, the inn cannot accommodate allergies, so if your child has a food allergy you will need to discuss it in advance.
