Wonderful experience and highly recommended. Everything was great. Great location and wish I could have stayed longer. Great dinner and breakfast buffet (even for a vegetarian).
The hotel was conveniently located at the entry road into Kurokawa Onsen. The breakfast and dinner buffets were great. We were able to easily visit or Onsen in the area from the hotel.
The service, and onsens were great, however the room was very dated, well used and not refreshed. Buffet food was great as well. Would recommend but only for 1 night.
I feel relaxing in this small nice onsen area. The hotel provides pick up service to the bus stop, which is very convenient. Staffs provided good service which i feel like a 5stars hotel.
Although the meals are buffets instead of traditional Japanese style, the food quantity is very good. I enjoyed the sabu sabu with beef the most. A lots of free flow alcohol during dinner and night.
There are many different choices of onsens in the ryokan. The staff are excellent as well, their english proficiency is one of the best I’ve seen as well. Although there were some incidents at the start when we check in, the staffs are very efficient at dealing with it.
Overall I’ll recommend anyone who visits Kurokawa onsen to give this ryokan a try
優彩hotel is a place with both Japanese and modern style. The price is reasonable , as customers can enjoy private hot spring, which is so family friendly. It is very close to hot spring street , just 5 minutes walk . Easy to go during lanterns festival ( night time) , when we are in Japanese outfits. There are serval hot springs options .
The hotel had multiple onsen each of different style. Very enjoyable. The view from the room faced forestry, which would be beautiful in autumn when the leaves turned red. The sound on rushing water from the rapids nearby gave a soothing feeling. The service staff coordination was great too, when you arrive or checked out, they will ask for your name or room number, then inform recep or the car assistant to prepare your keys.
Things which were not great
1/ food at the buffet was often cold or like warm,other than soup.
2/ would have been nicer if it were kaiseki

Highly recommend for overseas travellers
This is the only one hotel which provided the exceptional service during my 11-day trip in Fukuoka.
The staff members no matter in front desk or valet parking speak both English and Putonghua well and provide the excellent customer service. The bufffet dinner provides the wide range of choices in high quality.
The only one thing that needs further improvement is the hygiene, I saw there’s a spider net on the top floor.
Services of staff are really good. But the breakfast offering can be improved, the design they create not just for local, should consider much options for international guest.
