Sanga Ryokan 山河旅館

The public open bath is absolutely wonderful for relaxing and enjoying nature. The facilities are beautiful, and the ryokan itself is really picturesque. I would definitely recommend it anytime! Tattoos were not a problem

We stayed for a night in May. The big plus was the size of our room and the private onsen with a great outlook. It was a pity that it was tired with old fittings and much in need of decoration. For example, it smelt of cigarette smoke. When we arrived, the service was perfunctory and transactional and this was repeated in the restaurant. The dinner quality was the worst we experienced in Japan, although the (Japanese) breakfast was much better. We have advised our tour operator against using it again.

Our stay was fantastic. The property has a very charming traditional atmosphere, but it is still comfortable (great bedding!). The meals were thoroughly excellent, well-presented, and our dietary preferences (no meat) were perfectly catered for. The staff was patient with my broken Japanese and able to communicate in English if needed. Last but not least, both the private and the public baths are superb, and you get to try other ryokans' baths with the onsen-hopping pass. Good value, too.

Excellent onsen ryokan. The only drawback is it’s not directly in the town itself. Service was flawless, the food was perfect, and the baths were great. My room was good for my needs, it was quiet, and the waterfall outside was a great source of white noise. Highly recommend for a peaceful stay.

Our stay was the pinnacle of our trip to southern Japan. I offer no hyperbole whatsoever when I say the service and staff offered during our stay was the best experience I have ever had during my almost sixty years on this wonderful world, and my wife and have travelled almost every clime and place you could imagine. The mix of tradition and excellence was pitch perfect. We can’t wait for a future visit and we’ll definitely recommend to our friends!

Once in awhile you come across a gem of a property. Sanga Ryokan is one such place. From the moment you arrive on property the staff can’t seem to do enough ! The rooms were very traditionaland very comfortable. Great to have e a private onsen in ours. Our meals were beautiful and the service excellent. We were lucky to visit all the onsite onsens. Very enjoyable. The lovely lady at the front door noticed my shoes were wet and without asking she ensured they were dry on our departure. I highly recommend this property.

Dinner and breakfast was included in the accomodation. Our room inside got private onsen. The room is big, clean and nice. This ryokan is beautiful. The dinner and breakfast serve here was nice and delicious. Will come back here if I visit Kyushu.

I cannot recommend this Ryokan enough. Fantastic rooms, superb Onsen!!! Beautiful beautiful! Service?? 6 star!! The Kaiseki was delightful and so delicious. We were so full and happy..... this place is the best memory we had in our Kyushu trip! bravo to the team
