Highly recommend

Superb hotel in Aso. We were so lucky that the host upgraded us to the brand new corner room with amazing view. Room is very spacious, quiet, clean and modern.
It’s a shame that we couldn’t do horse riding as it was pouring on the day we stayed.

Actually this is a really good and special place for stay if you wanted something different from traditional accomodation. Food provided is yummy and staff is very friendly and helpful. The negative point of this place is firstly parking is not convenience as our room is a bit far and there are stair to go down. Secondly we think that the property is a bit tired, need further improvement. WE really wish to see a new face on it. Thank you

Somewhere a bit different in Aso

The El Patio Ranch is perched high on the caldera rim with great views towards the active volcanoes, some distance away. We didn't participate in the horse activities that take place at the ranch, preferring to explore the geopark. The Ranch was a great place to return in the evening.

とても気持ちが良く、乗馬をして宿泊するのは最高の体験でした。ただ夏場とはいえ麓とは天気が異なるため、阿蘇市街は30度超えていても、ここは25度くらいと涼しく、夏場でもウインドブレーカー的なものは必須です。このような体験ができる施設はなかなかないのではないでしょうか。

바람소리와 별이 있는 대관령 목장 같은 분위기, 그러나 조금 불편

도심의 익숙함과 편리함을 바라는 사용자에게는 추천할 수 없습니다.
14개월 아기 1명, 동반한 할머니 2분 - 6명 가족여행이었습니다. 렌트카 이용했습니다.
오후3시 체크인하고 승마체험 20분하고 조금 쉬었다가 저녁 BBQ 먹고(그냥 돌불판에 고기와 야채구이, 무한 제공 음료과 차, 그리고 밥-한국 반찬 조금 가지고 왔으면 아쉽지 않을 것 같네요) , 저녁에만 이용가능한 한국의 시골 목욕탕 물은 짱입니다. 깨끗한 목욕탕 이용하고 하늘의 별과 바람소리
조금 특이한 숙박이나 아소지역 화산을 보고 싶어하시는 분들에게는 추천할 만 합니다.
시내랑 거리는 조금 있습니다.
대관령 목장에서 자는 기분이라고 할까요...ㅎㅎㅎ

牧場景觀開揚,環境清静。雖然舊,但另有風味,不錯的另類住宿體驗。但要自駕。

美麗草原景色。房間不設浴室要到公用浴室,有點不便,但浴室又另有風味。早晚餐簡單但不馬虎,量也足夠。
牧場有十餘匹馬,供人使用。
牧場準備十個停業裝修到明年四月,祈待有全新面貌。
不是高檔酒店但值得推薦的另類住宿。

員工友善,服務很好。在山上特別偏僻,四處都沒有任何商店,自駕遊去問題不大。晚餐到8點,需要之前預定晚餐時間,另外留意要到公眾浴室洗澡。環境很好,在阿蘇山上享受廣大的草原,早上可在草原騎馬。

This is a great place to stay, it is up at the hill, surrounded by field and hills, a very relaxing place to stay for holiday, the best thing is you can ride horses there, the horse riding experience was amazing! Riding your own horse jogging at the hills. We were a bit surprised when we arrived and the staff told us there is no bath in the room, but then here is another surprise, there is hot spring in the public bathroom, it is a good one! We enjoyed staying here so much and highly recommended. We stayed in the room with the mountain view, so nice!
