Is Minshuku Marutoya in Unzen closed? 2023/5/7 13:54
I have been attempting to make a reservation at Minshuku Marutoya (next to Kojigoku Onsen) at Unzen for mid October. I understand that it may be temporarily or permanently closed.

Is anyone able to advise if it is closed and/or whether it is likely to be open in October?

Why not inquire to the Unzen Tourist Association?

Thanks Uco, I sent the Unzen tourist office a couple of messages on their website form, and they didn't respond. I even asked the Shimabara TO, but they again directed me to the UTO. I rang the Unzen tourist office, and understood that Marutoya is closed at the moment, but because of my poor language skills I was unable to be sure of the clarity of my question regarding the future opening of Marutoya. The UTO's English was way better than my Japanese, and they worked hard to help me, but I remain unsure.

I'll proceed to look at other options, assuming that it is closed.

Thank you for your feedback. Maybe you can try asking a set of questions like this:

(When writing in Japanese)
今年の10月に丸登屋に泊まりたいです。
今年の10月に丸登屋は営業しますか?
営業しませんか?
わかりませんか?
よろしくお願いします。

(When speaking in Japanese)
Kotoshi no juu-gatsu ni Marutoya ni tomaritai desu.
Kotoshi no juu-gatsu ni Marutoya wa eigyou simasu ka?
Eigyou shimasenka?
Wakarimasenka?

(When writing or speaking in English)
I want to stay at Marutoya this October.
Will Marutoya be opened this October?
Will it not be opened?
You don't know?

Also, I'm sure you've tried contacting Marutoya directly.

Postal mail address (you can print and paste and add "Japan"):
〒854-0621 長崎県雲仙市小浜町雲仙467

Phone: 0957-73-3457
Fax: 0957-73-3461

I hope it helps.
