The kindest, sweetest staff ever. Amazingly priced for the level of service, the outdoor Onsen, and cat Cafe all included??? I would come back to Yufuin just to stay here again.

Definitely the best hot spring hotel I have ever been to in my life! The elegant Japanese-style room, delicious breakfast, nice outdoor hot spring, and of course, cats! A lot of cats!

This was such a wonderful and cute hotel. The owners and staff are so friendly and helped with our luggages! They provided hotel and cat cafe instructions to us in English and took the time to explain everything to us. The location is about an 8 minutes drive from the Yufuin shopping area so a car is recommended. The cats are adorable! The hot springs were amazing as well! Highly recommend.

If you like Cat’s and Onsen’s then this is the place for you. The onsen is nice and private for you to relax in with no worries either indoor or outdoor. All the cats are so adorable. The staff are so kind and accommodating. Want to come back soon. Highly recommend :)

What a great experience! Beautiful grounds, friendly staff, and delicious food. The cats theme is charming and we loved being able to spend time with them. It was nice having a private onsen and since there are limited guests, we didn’t have to reserve and were able to bathe whenever we asked. I recommend staying more than one night, and wish the trip were longer. Thank you for the beautiful stay!

Very nice owners, clean structure with private onsens. It's a bit outside Yufuin so it's very recommended if you have a car. Nice room, a bit expensive compared to a similar structure. You will appreciate many aspects of the structure if you're a cat lover.

This place was so cute and so much fun! It was a very relaxing weekend thanks to the staff and the cats. The establishment is cash only and you pay ¥1,000 yen per day for cat cafe access. Each morning your cat treats are restocked and you are left with a little snack as well to enjoy while playing with the cats. I will admit, the road to the hotel is a little rough, but that is bo flaw to the establishment. The staff are very kind, attentive, and accomodating. The room was also spacious and beautiful. I hope one day I may go back.

Very interesting landscape and loved the osen. It is one of the few private osens where I could bathe with my partner. One thing that should be made clear on the Expedia description is that you can only pay with cash!

Excellent ryokan with super friendly staff, we really enjoyed our stay. The cats are cute and well taken care of, the baths are great and the room is pleasant. There is one caveat that needs to be mentioned: This is a cat-*themed* ryokan centered around the cats in the cat cafe that it hosts. The cafe is located inside the ryokan but acts as a separate entity and requires separate payment onsite. Very recommended for cat lovers! :3

힘든 일상을 내려놓고 쉬고 싶어 선택한 곳이었는데, 결론적으로 너무나 만족하는 최고의 휴식을 누리고 왔습니다. 친철한 주인 분과 귀여운 고양이 친구들, 프라이빗 온천, 쾌적하고 귀여운 객실. 모든 것이 완벽했습니다. 꼭 다시 가보고 싶은 곳입니다.

溫馨小巧的日式旅店,員工都非常的親切。店內的貓咪很可愛,可以付JPY1000撸貓兩天(從check in 後到check out前,有時段管制),很乾淨沒有貓咪的味道或是毛髮等問題。唯一的小失望是加訂了

原本打算到貓貓溫泉酒店過一晚除浸溫泉外,又可和貓貓一齊開心的過一個晚上但很失望,晚餐是店舖叫的外賣份量很少是普通的定食不能加量而且得幾嚿肉,這點必須要改善。 若要和貓貓玩卻原來需要進入另外一間貓房並要付款才可進入,這一點也令人失望! 職員是非常的友善有禮,這點是值得讚。性價比不高。
