Well, Hitoyoshi is not as famous as Kumamoto or Kagoshima for foreigners. However, I would regard Ryokan Ayunosato top tier onsen hotel in Kyushu with reasonable price in new year peak season. I do like the onsen experience and both meals are served with quality food and services. I stayed in a twin room and is spacious. The facilities of the hotel is at top tier, every details are the best. They also have English speaking staff plus Russian staff, for those who doesn’t speak English, there is absolutely not an issue. The souvenirs shop is large and operate 7am to 9pm, various snacks available for try.
