Overview
Tucked away in Beppu’s vibrant hot spring district, MURE Beppu invites you into a peaceful retreat where old meets new. The scent of aged timber and the rising mist of natural hot springs surround you. This ryokan blends the soul of traditional Japan with a fresh approach to hospitality. Whether you’re traveling solo or with someone special, you’ll find comfort in every moment.
The building uses repurposed timber from a 100-year-old farmhouse originally located in Toyama. These seasoned beams and pillars, once braving meters of winter snow, now form the warm heart of a ryokan that honors history while offering a refined, modern stay.

Onsen and Wellness
Every room at MURE Beppu includes a private hot spring bath filled with the ryokan’s signature “Golden Fortune Bath” (Kin’un no Yu). This mineral-rich spring oxidizes upon contact with air, creating a golden hue that’s as beautiful as it is beneficial.

Capacity: Up to 6 people
Reservation: First-come, first-served at check-in. Priority goes to guests with private bath packages.

The baths may appear tea-brown at times—this is natural and safe, caused by the iron content in the spring water.
