Experience of the stay
This year (2024), I chose Oita for my birthday trip.
I stayed at the Daiwa Roynet Hotel, which I found through HafH.
The room had the characteristic wide desk of Daiwa Roynet.
At 'Sakemeshitand Shokudo H', located on the first floor, I was able to eat Oita's famous Toriten.
It was close to the station, and there was an commercial district, so I could also procure meals.
It seems you can have breakfast here as well.
Experiences during the trip
It was my birthday.
In the morning, I moved from Beppu to the 'Oita Marine Palace Aquarium Umitemago' and spent the entire day there.
They have rare species like 'Hasei dolphin' and 'Bearded seal'. The 'Asobi Beach', where you can observe the dolphins up close, has a spot where you can go barefoot on the sandy beach, which I thought would feel nice in the summer (but I had to give up on that since I went in winter).
It was an aquarium where the creatures were very close to us.
In the evening, I enjoyed the sauna and hot springs at 'CITY SPA Tenku' located at Oita Station.
I heard that this was the best hot spring compared to Beppu's, and it turned out to be true!
I was able to spend time forgetting about everything.
The next day, I enjoyed food walking and foot baths in Yufuin by train.
