My husband and I stayed at Warabino for our honeymoon right after our wedding. This was the perfect place to rest after a busy season of wedding planning and work. We felt like we were at a 6 star hotel (even though it’s 5 star) - that’s how much we felt personally cared for. They have staff who can speak English and Korean so we didn’t have trouble with communication at all. All the staff are so kind and considerate - they anticipate your needs and ask / provide proactively and explain every dish at dinner and breakfast with detail. We felt so cared for! The food is amazing too - we stayed three nights and each meal was different and exciting. And they asked if we liked a certain dish we can have it again - and for the one we asked to have every night, they made slight changes to still keep it exciting while keeping the ingredients the same! Location is also at a very peaceful rural side but not far from Yufuin station. They offer free shuttle service which was scheduled at our request seamlessly. We could hear the birds chirping and trees bustling which was so peaceful as we sat in our balcony and in our private onsen. We felt so refreshed and would like to come back in the future!
Read the full review on Google MapsNot doubt to put this score. I love the silent environment
Read the full review on Google MapsThe rooms are spacious, well thought of with a nice onsen and all floor to ceiling windows are private facing, the food is impeccable and the service is nothing i encounter before. We casually remarked we usually snack late at night and someone overhead and just arranged for us to a nearby 7-11 to get stuff. 11/10 experience Combined with breakfast, dinner and private onsen, its great value.
