JR Hotel Yakushima

We loved the hotel. Comfortable beds, courteous staff, (nude) onsen (men and women separated but young kids of both genders can come in with one parent), food delicious. The only minor issue is that you have to decide in advance at what time you would like to have dinner and what you are going to eat (I guess that they want to make sure that they have enough tables and that the food you like is available). Not close to some of the hiking places but the fantastic natural onsen at the ocean that is only accessible at low tide is only about 1500 ¥ away by taxi.
