  • Ryokan Yakakutei
  • Hike the Kirishima mountain range. Relax in the hot springs of Kirishima.

I'm planning to join a trekking tour of the Kirishima mountain range in Kagoshima Prefecture. I want to stay overnight at Ryokan (Japanese inn) or hotel in Kirishima Onsen, so I can relax in a hot spring after the hike. I'd like to stay somewhere where I can eat at Ryokan (Japanese inn) ryokan. Please let me know your recommendations. I'd appreciate it if you could speak to me in English.

Ryokan Yakakutei

1-8 Togo, Hayato-cho

  • A luxury inn where you can enjoy famous hot springs

  • This is an inn where you can experience the famous hot spring that was loved by Saigo Takamori and Sakamoto Ryoma. As this is a high-class inn close to Kagoshima Airport, you can also use the free shuttle if you make a reservation in advance. The hot spring is a weak alkaline bicarbonate spring, so it is gentle on the skin and loved by everyone. This hot spring has long been loved as the inner sanctum of Kagoshima, and the inn itself is a space where you can feel the history and culture of the area.

  • English-speaking guesthouse! A hotel that takes pride in its food

  • This inn prides itself on its cuisine, with a chef from a Michelin-starred restaurant serving as an advisor. The kaiseki cuisine, made with ingredients from all over Japan, is a feast for the eyes and the mouth. The menu changes with the seasons, so you can enjoy the flavors of the seasons when you visit. Both the exterior and interior are Japanese-style, making it a tasteful space perfect for tourists in Japan. There are also parts that blend in modern elements, so you can enjoy a comfortable stay without feeling stiff.

  • Free airport transfer available if you request it at the time of booking!

  • The owner of a famous restaurant that has been awarded Michelin stars for many years is the culinary advisor, and you can enjoy carefully prepared seasonal dishes. You can also eat Kagoshima Kurobe beef. The restaurant overlooks the Japanese garden, so you can enjoy delicious food while feeling the change of seasons with your eyes. There is also an open-air bath and a sauna. The rooms are luxurious, and I think this is Ryokan (Japanese inn) that will leave you with fond memories.

Hotel Kyocera

隼人町見次1409-1

  • Conveniently located just 20 minutes by car from the airport

  • It's conveniently located just 20 minutes by bus or taxi from Kagoshima Airport, making it very convenient for those catching a flight. We recommend the plan that includes the local kaiseki cuisine, where you can enjoy Kagoshima's specialty black pork in a stew or small hotpot. Another good thing about this hotel is that it also has a Western restaurant, so there are options other than Japanese food. The rooms are basically Western-style beds. They are spacious, so even tall people can stretch out and relax.

  • This hotel has English-speaking staff.

  • This hotel is conveniently located just under 20 minutes by car from Kagoshima Airport. If you don't have a car, you can take a taxi for about 3,000 yen. If you can get to Hayato Station, it's about a 5-minute drive, and a taxi for about 1,000 yen. Meals can be chosen from buffet style or a restaurant in the hotel. The buffet offers all-you-can-eat local Kagoshima dishes. They also serve delicious Kagoshima shochu! The restaurant is located 60 meters above ground, so you can enjoy delicious food while looking at Breathtaking view. There are a wide variety of hot springs, including hot, warm, and Lying-down bath, and the large public bath has glass windows on all sides, giving it an excellent sense of openness!

  • Easy access from Kagoshima Airport!

  • I recommend this hotel because it has staff who can speak English. There is a Buffet style restaurant and a Western restaurant. Buffet has a wide variety of desserts, which I think is popular with women. There are many rooms, so it is easy to stay. The large public bath is spacious and made of glass, so you can relax and enjoy a soak. There is also a sauna!

Kirishima Hotel

Makizonocho Takachiho 3948

  • An inn with a connection to Ryoma Sakamoto

  • This is the inn where Sakamoto Ryoma, a popular figure in Japanese history, stayed on his honeymoon while recuperating. As such, there are historical exhibits within the building, allowing you to experience Japanese culture and the traditions of the inn. The hotel's highlight is the large garden bath, which is as complete as a theme park. In addition to being able to enjoy four different spring qualities in the large bath, there are also many other bathing zones, such as standing baths and cascading baths, which are too numerous to mention in this article. Another appealing feature is that it is divided into a women-only area, a men-only area, and Mixed-Gender Hot Springs area, so you can enjoy it in different ways depending on who you're traveling with.

  • The large bath with a depth of 25 meters is very impressive!

  • The highlight of this Ryokan (Japanese inn) is the sulfur valley garden large bath! It is 25 meters deep and has 17 types of hot springs. It is like a hot spring theme park where you can experience four different sound qualities. The food is kaiseki kaiseki(a traditional Japanese multiple course meal )using seasonal and local ingredients. You can also try their specialty black pork. The rooms range from Japanese-style to Western-style, so even those who don't like sleeping on futons can stay here without any problems. Also, the hotel is adjacent to the famous "100-year-old cedar garden," so you can feel the nature.

Kirishima miyama hotel

Makizono cho Takachiho 3878-82

  • Convenient location both inside and outside the hotel

  • This is a retro, tasteful hotel located in the heart of the hot spring resort. It is a must-visit for those who want the atmosphere of a hot spring inn and good value for money! The guest rooms are mainly compact Japanese-style rooms of 8 to 6 tatami mats, and the sleeping style is a futon laid out on the tatami mats, which is typical of Japan. Even if you are not used to sleeping on a futon, you can sleep more comfortably than in a bed as there is no height difference. There are also several Western-style rooms. The meals are creative cuisine made with local ingredients. The apple gratin is a surprising dish when you first hear about it, but it is a popular menu item with many female repeat customers. The private open-air bath can be used by one person, so if you have the time, please make a reservation immediately.

  • A comfortable hotel with courteous service

  • This hotel is located in the center of the Kirishima Onsen hot spring resort. The free-flowing hot spring water can be reserved for private use, and the open-air bath can also be reserved for private use. The newly built mountain hut open-air bath allows you to soak in the hot spring water while watching the illuminated steam. The food is also delicious, and you can eat creative dishes made with Kagoshima black beef. The apple gratin is a popular menu item, so be sure to try it!

Kirishima Kokusai Hotel

3930-12 Takachiho, Makizonocho

  • A hotel in Kagoshima that is easily accessible by public transport

  • It's about a 30-minute bus ride from Kagoshima Airport, and local buses are also available from the nearest station, making it easy to get to by public transport. At the baths, you can enjoy natural onsen(hot spring) 100% natural hot spring. There's also a sauna and a rock sauna, making it the perfect place to soothe the fatigue of mountain climbing. The interior of the buffet restaurant, which incorporates Kirishima's traditional culture in a modern way, is also interesting. As the name "Yukemuri Terrace" suggests, it's a space where you can feel the onsen(hot spring) steam erupting from underground.

  • A hotel where you can enjoy seafood and mountain delicacies for dinner

  • This hotel is located in the center of the Kirishima Onsen area, and the best thing about it is the great view of Sakurajima that you can see on a clear day.

There is a wide variety of baths, including an open-air bath, a spacious large bath, a reclining Lying-down bath, and a steam bath. If you are worried about the surroundings, you can also use a private bath!
