志美津旅館

我每年去一次或兩次，住 3 晚。主廚準備的西餐和日餐都很好吃，有種入住溫泉旅館的感覺。 3晚的晚餐和早餐，更換菜單，您可能會遇到美味和驚喜的菜餚。這次的手工生芝麻豆腐給人留下了深刻的印象，但牙垢、豐後牛排和大星鰻天婦羅也很美味。每次，旅館的工作人員都帶著親切的微笑迎接我，讓我有種在湯之平有親人的感覺。該建築具有大正時代的氛圍，時尚且非常乾淨。我早上和晚上去散步，但那是我最喜歡的安靜時間。有洞窟溫泉和露天浴池。我出很多汗。

Lovely location and setting. History: this is a traditional ryokan celebrating their 99 year operating. The business has been in the family for three generations now. The current owner (retired engineer) speaks English and very engaging. Happy to tell you the history of the building (initially set up as a sake brewery!) Rooms are traditional design and comfortable. Onsen cave with outdoor space is unique. I liked the out door onsen the most. The private onsen is tiny and not worth it. Important: unfortunately no food is available here. They stopped served food since 2023 - don’t let the old pictures fool you. There is one eel restaurant in town otherwise you have to bring you own food in. Also you are required to pay additional onsen tax. Might not be stated but this is a nominal amount required.
