Reviews of yubune 5 stars

Probably the most beautiful and aesthetic hotel we've stayed in in Japan. It doubles as a bathhouse, so everything is designed to be zen and you feel that at every touch point. After a very long day of hard cycling, landing in such a stunning hotel felt like a blessing. The baths and sauna were excellent to soak in after a strenuous day. The location was good, right beside the ferry port and the shopping street (even if most things were closed upon arrival). Complimentary drinks, lounge wear, and very spacious rooms made for a very comfortable stay. The bathroom was also spacious and gorgeous, unlike some of the small capsules we've experienced elsewhere. There is an excellent a few doors down (in the SOIL Hotel) where we had some of the best food we've had in Japan. Parking is available for hotel guests, including bike parking.

It was a shame that food options weren't available, otherwise we'd have happily spent more time in our room.

Very clean and beautiful rooms, fantastic onsen facilities and incredible location

Quiet, clean, beautiful sento, great location

Yubune is in a modern building that is architecturally sympathetic to the traditional building style. It is modern and clean. The room was spotless, well designed and comfortable. The shower was good. There's a large room where you can cook and eat. Drop coffee and tea was provided in the room and soft drinks in the fridge were complimentary.

There was no breakfast offer although a hotel a minute walk away has a cafe that opened at 7:30 am.

Attractive room and property. Enjoyed the public bath. Lovely location.

No tv in room

staff were very accommodating. they allowed us to leave our baggage ahead of the check-in time. since it was also raining, they allowed us to "park" our ebikes inside our room which was spacious enough. bonus was the onsen!

nothing comes to mind

Location, Design, shower and very comfortable beds. Front desk staff super helpful and friendly.

Window screen in Japanese style was gorgeous but not effective at blocking out any light - but not an issue if you have an eye mask. Hotel design is lovely but walls are thin - earplugs are needed!

Gorgeous hotel! Beautiful room, public bath and facilities. Loved our stay! Wish we stayed longer!

Highly recommend!

The beds were super comfy. There was amazing high quality juice, coffee and tea in the room. The onsen was amazing and so nice to be able to walk to it in the clothes they provide in your room.

Unfortunately when we went in early April only one restaurant in town was open. The front desk had an amazing list of places with a map to help, but their English was very limited and they didn’t understand when I said all of them were closed for some reason. The lack of restaurants is something people should know when traveling to Onomichi during cherry blossom season. The town was essentially shut down during the week and yubune does not have a restaurant attached. SOIL across the street had one open but only open to guests on Wednesdays.

Lovely and clean, good sized rooms, beautiful onsen, great location

We were hot and wanted to use the air conditioning but we were told it was not possible so I was uncomfortable trying to sleep. The staff had to unlock the window with a key which is weird. I made sure to ask in advance if the hotel could ship our bags same day to Matsuyama. They said yes but then when it came time to ship the bags they said it wouldn’t arrive until the next morning and they did not apologise for the wrong information and I had to request that they help me find a way to get it there same day (which they eventually did but they certainly didn’t offer in the first place. It was also almost double the cost)

Everything perfect!

Stylish and spacious room with comfortable beds and a great shower. Access to bathhouse and sauna. Staff were friendly and helpful. A nice touch that the room had a smart speaker.

The onsen was wonderful after a fun day of biking. The complementary drinks were generous and refreshing. Would highly recommend yubane.

Absolutely beautiful property and the highlight of our Japan trip. High quality amenities with a touches of luxury throughout. Loved the bath house! We found enough great food options close by for our night stay. Can’t wait to return one day.

The welcome was friendly & helpful. The bedroom was very big & beautiful & the onsen was great after cycling for the day.
