Incredible stay! The ryokan experience was unforgettable – a memory for life. The staff was knowledgeable and respectful. The public onsen views were stunning, plus there’s a private onsen option for a fee. The free shuttle to and from the train station was super convenient. Highly recommend!

Area of hotel is in Den Den town so lots of options for food and shopping. About 15 minute walk to Namba station and 25 min walk to Dotonbori. Stayed in the room with the computer's, would recommend if you're planning on gaming all night. Computers arent really fast but it does the job. Vibe of the hotel is a bit dingy and not entirely the same as the photos but for the price its a really nice stay.

This was the most beautiful and hospitable stay that I experienced in Japan. Lovely staff, gorgeous rooms, incredible private onsen. There’s yakiniku across the street if you miss dinner. I love that they offer a shuttle from the train station as well— there’s a free phone there you can use to call them. I’ll definitely be coming back and staying longer next time.

Awesome Onsen. Quick check in. The two open air mineral baths were clean, comfortable and relaxing. The one with the huge lava rocks, natural greenery and small waterfall on the 5th floor was my favorite. On the 11th floor the afternoon and evening it was gently raining and sitting in the Onsen with rain coming down made me feel one with the rain and hot water. The food was awesome, a huge variety and more than I could eat. The room was traditional Japanese and comfortable. My husband and I enjoyed our 10th wedding anniversary at Yumotokan.

Do this was our first experience at a full service Ryokan and Onsen. The size of our room was huge and we loved the bathroom as it felt like being in a spa. We really enjoyed the traditional Japanese dinner and breakfast. There were so many foods that were new to us. We got the Omni beef dinner which was extra and the meat was fabulous! Definitely worth trying. So the only stress was arrival at the train station. There’s a public phone that you can use to call for pick for foreigners but it’s so tiny and difficult to find. It’s literally tied to a string 5 meters from the exit of the tolling station as you arrive.

The staff were wonderful during our 2 night stay at this ryokan. They made us feel so welcome even with a language barrier and just provided us whatever we needed. The food was amazing and the onsen facilities were top notch, definitely the highlight of our Japan trip. They also provide a free shuttle service to pick you up from the nearest train station. There’s even a convenient hotel phone at the station to use.

It’s so nice here the staff are extremely attentive and it really feels like being a feudal aristocrat for a day, with dinner and breakfast as multi course meals in private rooms and staff coming to set up futons for sleeping while the guests are at dinner. Cannot recommend it enough! the surrounding area is charming in a small-town kinda way, but there’s not much to do outside the ryokan. I don’t recommend staying more than one or two nights unless you have a car to take you out to things to do in the area

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
I loved the various onsen you could try out (especially the outdoor ones)! I also opted to have my own wooden tub that dispensed hot spring water—that was really nice too. The staff was warm and welcoming, and the kaiseki dinner was great to try. I highly recommend this place if you want to have an onsen day!
