We spent a day and night here in April just after it opened for the season. With snow still on the ground it was very beautiful. The ryokan itself is comfortable if a little tired in places but the food is superlative and the onsen is very well laid out. There is a games room with ping pong and TVs in the bedrooms. The futons were very comfortable. Highly recommend. 

Very pleasant staff, lovely onsen 

We reach Awanoyu within 1,5 hours bus ride from Matsumoto Bus Station (just the front side of Matsumoto JR Station), the ryokan is located at Shirahone Onsen Town. If you're not driving, one of the best way to reach the ryokan is with bus (if you take train from Matsumoto Sta. you need to change to bus halfway there). You can purchase the Alpico Bus ticket (one way/round trip) through a ticket machine at Matsumoto Station. The bus stop is just in front of the Ryokan.

The Ryokan building is relatively new (or newly renovated) and well kept, the rooms are decent as well. What we loved most about our room are the Kotatsu (heater table) as the peak winter can be so cold! The bath itself, is one of the most beautiful bath that I've been to in Japan (been to 3-4 other ryokans at Gunma and Fukuoka) the sulphur based water really gives beautiful blue/turquoise colour, especially during winter mornings. They said if you're bathing there for three straight days, you won't catch a cold for a whole year!

Other things that I loved about the bath, is the entrance! The female and male has separate entrance, they provided bath robe (it's like a tube dress) for the females and they have pool entrance inside the changing room (on the outer changing hut area) so no need to hurry when entering the bath for fear being stared at (oh I know the feeling)

The water temperature isn't as hot as most ryokan there is, but I kinda like it. I finally able to bath more than an hour straight without feeling too much heated.

I gave a 4 stars rating due to the price, for the price they publish, I could get to another ryokan that has equally wonderful service but has more baths options (this Ryokan has only one bath and shared)

Great Hospitality, Beautiful Ryokan

This is a traditional Japanese Ryokan. Not new, not modern, but the real experience. The rooms are big, clean and comfortable. It's located in the middle of nowhere. We got there by car, in winter time. The roads were in great condition and safe despite the snow and ice. The surroundings are spectacular. The service and the kaiseki dinner were great.

Amazing hospitality. Authentic ryokan experience.

Best Ryokan we've been to so far. Excellent accommodation, people and if course the food is excellent. All seasons are good times to come for holiday. We will come here to see all seasons. We were told autumn has very nice change of colors. 

Onsen holiday

The room we stayed was newly remodeled room and had kotatsu. Our server was excellent!! She served each meals on great timing and provide us about ingredients info. Also she had so much knowledge about surrounding area and gave us great advise where to visit. Hot spring was silky and a little sulfer smell. They had ping pong table for free to play. I would visit again! They also had English speaking stuff.
