Hotel Beppu Pastoral — Hotel in Beppu

Tucked away from the busy streets of Beppu’s city center, Hotel Beppu Pastoral offers a peaceful and immersive Japanese experience that was both relaxing and memorable. While the hotel is located slightly outside the main downtown area, it is still easily accessible via public transportation, and its tranquil surroundings make it an excellent choice for those seeking a quieter, more traditional atmosphere.

One of the highlights of this stay was undoubtedly the public bath facilities, particularly the open-air onsen. Thoughtfully designed and well-maintained, the outdoor bath allowed for a truly enjoyable and rejuvenating experience throughout the duration of my stay. The blend of warm waters and fresh air, along with the beautifully landscaped bath area, created the perfect setting to unwind after a day of exploring Beppu.

Another charming feature of the hotel is its well-kept garden and proximity to lovely walking paths. The on-site landscaping is meticulously cared for and reflects the seasonal beauty of Japan.

In summary, Hotel Beppu Pastoral is a hidden gem for those seeking a calm and culturally rich stay in Beppu.

The water quality is adequate but cannot match the Nagano water with heavy sulfa, less milky and no smell.||||We looked forward for the breakfast daily especially to their local small cold dishes.
