Beppu Onsen Shinhorii

Overall the Ryokan stay with hot spring was very enjoyable with a hearty breakfast over 2 days. Hosts are very friendly and helpful but do note most of them speak only Japanese so a translator app may be required. Bathing fee/ parking fee is charged directly at the ryokan. Futons are on the thinner side, so may not be as suitable for seniors

Shin Horii combines authentic 24-hour private hot springs with a prime location near Beppu Station and warm, caring grandma-style hospitality, though the older building relies on stairs.

조용히 머물고 싶다면 여기다. 카이세카를 경험하고 싶었는데 하지 않아 아쉬웠다. 위치도 좋고 쾌적했다. 혼자 여행온 사람들이 대부분이었다. 온천도 따로 이용할 수 있어 좋았다

No English spoken or written anywhere. Refused to check us in and then after 20 minutes of trying to get them to understand how to use Google translate, they finally found our reservation. Worst bed ever... no sleep. Bathroom opens to hallway. Bath and shower two floors down. Floors and upholstery full of stains.
