Hotel Seawave Beppu

This Hotel is right in front of Beppu Station, with excellent access. There is also a free parking lot very close by; it’s spacious and very convenient. The Room was clean and comfortable as well. The front desk is on the second floor, and the self check-in machine can be a bit complicated to use, but the staff will kindly guide you through it. The Onsen baths are on the first and third floors, and it seems the men’s and women’s bathing areas switch between night and morning. Breakfast is served on the first floor as a buffet style meal, and it was very delicious. If you want to enjoy Beppu’s nightlife flavors after an Onsen soak, this is the only choice.

I often visit Beppu, but this was my first time staying at this Hotel. I wanted to keep costs low but didn’t want a capsule stay and also wanted to enjoy an Onsen. As a result, I was very satisfied. 【What I liked】 ○ The Room was spacious and comfortable. There was plenty of space between the desk and bed, so the chair wasn’t cramped at all. ○ Located in front of the station, so it’s easy to find. ○ Free parking was very helpful. ○ The TV was large, and the renovated water facilities were clean and pleasant to use. ○ Being on the station side meant you could hear some train sounds, but it offered a great train view where you could see express trains like Sonic clearly—very satisfying! ○ The waterfall bath in the Onsen felt amazing and very relaxing. ○ Breakfast wasn’t extravagant but sufficient for morning needs; female staff members were efficient and pleasant to interact with. ○ Check-out time being 11:00 allowed me to enjoy a leisurely morning soak in the Onsen as well! ○ There was also a floor lamp which added comfort; overall, it felt truly spacious and relaxing.○ They provided bags for amenities which came in handy.○ Although I didn’t use it this time, guests can access Onsens at affiliated Hotels too.【What concerned me slightly】 ○ Due to its original design structure, there are steps near areas like washbasins—be careful not to trip over them. ○ Self-check-in/check-out machines weren’t smooth; staff had to assist frequently which ended up taking more time—this can be frustrating when tired. ○ A robot? stationed in the lobby would greet people passing by—even late at night after 11 PM—it startled me when heading through an empty lobby towards midnight Onsen usage!For just around 5,000 yen including breakfast with such comfort provided—I’m extremely satisfied! Thank you very much!
