Excellent staff service, environment and experience comfortable and quiet providing a good rest. Driverless monorail to onsen was awesome with spectacular scenery. Free ice pops provided. Husband saw a deer in the grassland while using the onsen. Only regret was the food quality that couldn’t stand out.

Great volcano view, meals could be better

Fantastic Sakura volcano view & surrounding environment. Meals (dinner & breakfast) needs improvement, compared to many other onsen ryokans that charge less. Lack of snacks at relaxing lounge or bar. Typical Hoshino standard, adequate courtesy service, but somewhat lack of warm hospitality.

Staff were friendly and welcoming, and service was great. Views of Mt Sakurajima were absolutely beautiful which is partly why I booked. I opted for a room with private onsen as I have tattoos. They offered tattoo covers but I thought they looked a but silly as I ended up looking like a patchwork quilt. We did did go down the hotels cable car to check out the relaxation room and enjoy some ice pops and tea. My only disappointment was being offered dining option times of 5:30 or 7:30pm, we asked for 7:30 as we’d had a really late lunch. But were then told 7:30 was booked. We couldn’t really enjoy dinner as we were still full from lunch. It is enjoyable though having private dining spaces.

酒店位於霧島山腰中，自成一角，環境清幽，每個房間都能看到櫻島火山美景。最特別之處是乘坐幾分鐘單軌䌫車去山腳浸溫泉。晚上有特色表演節目。 另外，員工十分殷勤款待，早晩餐的食物質素一流。
