5/5 - Excellent
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.

Visitors to Kurokawa Onsen enjoy its restaurants, and if you want to do some exploring, Aso Kuju National Park is worth a stop.

Excellent kaiseki dinner and great onsen. Especailly enjoyed the orivate family onsen.

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.

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.
Don’t miss the river lights at night. Magical
