Hotels in Oita, Japan

Oita is a prefecture on Kyushu Island in Japan, home to over 2,000 hot springs and the iconic Mount Yufu. Its climate is mild in winter (around 45°F/7°C), perfect for soaking in Beppu's steamy 'hells' like Umi Jigoku, and hot in summer (86°F/30°C), ideal for hiking Yufu's trails or cooling off at the Takasakiyama Monkey Sanctuary. For unique food, try yokagera (dish of chicken and vegetables) at a local stall, and visit the Usa Jingu shrine in spring when the cherry blossoms bloom.
