Hotel staff service was superb. We requested pickup at Yudanaka station due to large group and the hotel staff replied promptly and showed up on time. Only A few of them could speak good english. They were also very attentive and meticulous in explaining the use of slippers, hot bath facilities nearby. Shibu onsen is within walking distance but restaurants were limited and many not open for dinner during our stay on dec 8. On departure day, hotel staff also patiently showed us bus timetable and bus stop location to go to shiga kogen.

Amazing staff with genuine kindness and hospitality, great traditional Japanese style room. Japanese style Dinner and Breakfast are prepared and served with such love and care and are delicious. The onsen are to die for and so relaxing and private. Really ideal location a quick bus ride from the Snow Monkeys and Shiga Kogen ski resort. It was an unforgettable stay for us and will definitely be going back!

Great value-for-money budget stay for people skiing or visiting the snow monkey park. The owner is super friendly and uses Google Translate to make sure the non-Japanese speaking guests have everything they need - gave us lifts each morning to the station for the bus up to Shiga Kogen. Breakfasts were delicious and highly recommended - kept us fuelled for a morning on the slopes!

Traditional Japanese accommodations. Futons were clean and comfortable and the breakfast was healthy and nutritious. Conveniently located near onsen villages, Snow Monkey park and Shiga Kogen ski resort. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Loved the on-site onsen which had an indoor and outdoor area. super relaxing after a long day of exploring!

My favourite place I stayed in Japan. Great location, incredible staff, spacious room, and very reasonable price. Will stay here again when I go to Yudanaka/Shiga Kogen.

It was a super authentic Ryukan experience, the host was super friendly and courteous. We recommend booking the authentic breakfast and diner for full experience. If you travel as a couple there is even a private onsen you can use together. Everything was super Clean. 100% recommendation

I loved the amazing staff and amenities. The private onsen in the suite was amazing and the view with that on the balcony was beautiful. The staff were able to accommodate with an English speaking staff member. The owner of the hotel was also amazing! The hospitality was wonderful. They made sure we had a way to the train station. The Japanese style breakfast and dinner included with our stay were the best food me and my husband both have ever had in our two year stay in Japan. They even give you traditional wear to wear throughout the hotel to make the experience immersive!

Beautiful hotel and room. Exceptional service. Free drinks after onsen is an amazing perk. Free shuttles were great.

This is an amazing ryokan. If you let them know when you arrive at Yudanaka station they will have a shuttle to pick you up. They also have a shuttle that takes you to the Snow Monkey Park so you can leisurely start hiking the actual hike. Afterwards they pick you up and drive you straight to Yudanaka station and your luggage is of course also brought along. I booked dinner and breakfast and both were just amazing and such a nice way to experience Japanese culture. The dinner was especially good. They also have hot baths that are open 23h with both indoor and outdoor onsen. At this place everything is taken care of for you.

I opted for the Kaiseki meal with my stay and it was largely very good. The room was comfortable and clean, and the location was very central to the station and bus stops to attractions like the Monkey Park. Staff were helpful and attentive, and the outdoor hot spring bath was beautiful and well maintained. It was on the pricier side but the value was also high.

Naoko, Kiku, and the entire hotel staff went above and beyond, making our stay delightful and memorable with their exceptional assistance and warmth.

Incredible service and incredible overall experience. It's like staying in a fancy cabin in the snow. The lounge area with the giant fireplace is awesome, very nice food, very spacious rooms and first class facilities such as the onsens and indoor swimming pool. The decor could be interpreted as dated (as other reviews have stated) but we felt this simply adds to the warmth and cosiness of the establishment. The service here is seriously next level and it is fantastic value for money.

The room was much bigger than I anticipated, and in a Japanese style (with tatami) so I was pleasantly surprised. The onsen in the hotel was an absolute delight. It had several baths with different temperatures, a lounge space, a sauna, a cold bath (which can be rare), and of course everything needed to wash yourself thoroughly before going into the baths. The hotel also provides body towels as well as face towels, so you don't need to bring yours. They have lockers to keep your items safe while bathing. There's free breakfast (little pieces of bread + some juice and coffee/tea) and a space on the first floor to relax after the onsen for example. It has wifi there as well.

Totaly awesome staff - 2 guys who speak little bit english, but they are amazing and kind (of course all staff was great)! Everything was fine, dinner and breakfast were rich and everybody could choose his style. Room was cosy and onsens were relaxing. We really enjoyed our time here!!!!! We advise to everybody who wants to feel real Japan!🥰

I loved the place, it has its rustic theme which is typical of an old ryokan/hotel in Japan. Very helpful staff
