Hana Ryokan Iwatoya

Reasonable price hotel for its ryokan feel. Hotel is old, but that also gives it the nostalgia vibes. Good local brekkie sets, definitely one of my most memorable hotels stay in Kyushu

When I saw where the hotel was located, I immediately knew that I wanted to stay there because I dreamed of seeing Amanoiwato Jinja. I went to the cave twice, in the morning and in the evening, there is a very beautiful road, and it only takes about 20 minutes to walk. It is also easy to get to Takachiho Gorge, the bus stop is a couple of minutes from the hotel. This was my first experience of staying in a traditional hotel in Japan, and I really liked everything. Delicious dinner and breakfast - I tried a traditional kaiseki dinner, and it was an amazing experience. Attentive, caring hotel staff, perfect cleanliness everywhere, amazing mountain air. Natural wood in the room decoration creates a feeling of warmth and comfort. In the bathroom, you can try Japanese cosmetics. In the evening, you can drink tea, sitting in a comfortable chair with a book. At first, the silence around is unusual, but for us, city dwellers, it is necessary. Since it is dark around, you can see the starry sky - you will not see this in the city. There is a free shuttle from the hotel to the traditional Yokagura show in the evening. For someone interested in mythology, this was very interesting. I did not get the hang of the hot tub right away and I still feel awkward about it, and I forgot to mention that I am allergic to onions, but it is my fault for forgetting to mention it. I would highly recommend the Ryokan Iwatoya, it was an amazing experience.

服務很好，有車先去到，有車位，15分鐘車程有間叫nobu既細鋪頭，個鰻魚飯好好食。酒店人只友善，個溫泉正，如果再去高千歲可以再訂多次，一人住6帖真係大

家庭式旅館，五臟俱全。泊車方便，免費。

接待：入住日巧遇寒流侵襲，天氣特別冷，但抵達旅館時，看到主人家就站在門口迎接，甚至冒著冷風協助引導停車，整個被深深的感動。 早餐&晚餐：不曉得這是否就是傳說中的"日式懷石"料理? 就我一個外國人而言，那肯定是! 釜炊米飯搭配當季/在地的手工小菜、副食等，色彩繽紛且兼具美味的饗宴，每一道菜都感覺得出主人家準備的用心，上菜時也一一介紹內容，是十分特別的感受。 泡湯：木造浴池雖然不大，但有種古樸的美，環境整潔，唯一美中不足的是，女湯的梳妝台上的面紙、保濕品等早已用罄，卻沒有及時補充，除此之外沒有其他不足；泡完溫泉回到房間，驚奇的發現主人家精心準備了紅豆湯，不只暖胃而且暖心。 整體：如果有到天岩戶這邊，建議可投宿這兒一晚，不僅地點佳，開窗就可以看到天岩戶神社，一大早也可以悠哉漫步到天安河原，充分享受當地的特殊景致，此外旅館貼心的服務與美味的餐點，絕對是有別於西式飯店的不同體驗。

We enjoyed our stay at Hana Ryokan Iwatoya. This is an older but nicely managed family hotel. Dinner was outstanding. Room is traditional and therefor nice. The Onsen is small but ok, bath in the room the smallest we had ever seen but soo cute ! Free parking behind the hotel. We will come back if we are in Kyushu again !
