Great place, there were 6 private Onsen rooms, and public (male/female) bath houses. Great place for couples. I would definitely come back.

Very clean and well-maintained, the villa is spacious and faces east so you get a sunrise view from the living area. Make sure you reach before sundown because the road in is winding and treacherous. Best to familiarise yourself on your first drive at peast.

Verified traveler

If you get a chance to stay here - I highly recommend it. The onsen is beautiful, but the staff and ambiance make it one of my favorite trips of all time.

2/5 - Disappointing

Catherine

Kurokawa Onsen town is fairly unremarkable compared to the other top 10 Onsen towns we been to in Japan. Yumerindo was a huge disappointment and the worst hotel of our 3 week trip to Japan.

5/5 - Excellent

Don’t miss the river lights at night. Magical
