Very authentic and beautiful wooden house with a friendly owner that made us feel like home. He gave us lots of tips of places to visit and where to eat that made our trip incredibly interesting. The Onsen in his house is also a must and we felt very fortunate to have found such a wonderful place.

I really enjoyed my stay, it was a completely different experience than other places I've stayed in Japan. The area has a slightly spooky, Alabama-esque feel. Maybe it was becouse of the goat outside my window, maybe the American-style buildings, or maybe, aside from meeting the lovely owners once at check-in, I didn't see a single person during my one-night stay. The room was clean, the bed very comfortable, and the air conditioning worked flawlessly (as did the Wi-Fi) a big plus for the fridge in the room (there are no shops at the area, I recommend buying some sandwiches etc earlier). It was the cheapest option I could find in the area, a bit pricey for the standard, but considering the spooky vibe (which I liked), I can't really complain. My destination was the Kamishikimi Kumanoimasu Shrine, and it was a 30-minute walk. It's about an hour's walk from the train station. It's also a 15-minute walk from the coolest old-school samurai-style restaurant I've ever been to.

Stunning view of the five peaks from our upstairs room. Kind and attentive host who made calls to restaurants for us. Also lent us towels to take to an onsen. Super practical. The glass art by Hideki on display in the common room also happened to be exhibited at a cafe in Takachiho where we went after Minami-Aso

Charming location. Beautiful traditional Japanese house. We brought pot noodles as worried there would be nowhere to eat but didn't need to worry as helpful host gave us directions to an izikaya a couple of kilometres away. Good if you have a car but probably not ideal to walk at night as not much pavement or lighting. Wish we had a bit more time to enjoy setting.

Stunning! Well thought out private dwelling, with juliet balcony where your bed is. Little kitchenette, with fridge. The bathroom is big and well planned out. There is a wood burning stove in the corner of the room so you can make it warm and cosy (there is also a heater/ac/fan, for all temps!). We were only there one night and paid to have an evening meal there. Four courses cooked by the owner, all locally sourced, delicious! Highly recommend this place. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the hiking in the nearby national park.

Set just 32 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto, 阿蘇び心 Asobi Gokoro offers accommodation in Aso with access to a garden, a shared lounge, as well as a shared kitchen.

Yoshi was super friendly and helpful in giving tips and recommendations on places to eat, visit etc. Upon arrival I was given tea, a handmade map and a little lottery snack. I didn't win but was still gifted a snack bag. Sleeping area is upstairs in the building next door to the caravan and tent pictured. The place felt homey with all the little touches and details. I only stayed one night here but will recommend this place for those who want to experience living in ASO.

The couple running the guesthouse are warm, friendly and welcoming. The house is a renovated traditional Japanese house, so it is beautiful and cozy. The hosts also offered us vegetables and ramen to cook our own dinner, which was great!
