Excellent stay in this traditional family run Ryokan. The room was very big, we enjoyed the three onsen on offer. The breakfast was so tasty as is the dinner. The hotel is very close to the local train and bus station for snow monkey park as well as ski area. Book in advance as very popular!

Excellent stay with great food

Fantastic traditional Japanese accomodation. Very quiet and relaxing place to stay. Access to 3 amazing onsens which we loved. Traditional dinner and breakfast was delicious and made the experience even better! Very helpful staff. Coffee machine fabulous!

Relaxing

This is my second stay in this lovely ryokan, and it was as magical as the first. Matsuo, the owner, is a friendly and welcoming host, who speaks English and is ready to explain anything you need and the staff are wonderful. Matsuo will drive you to the bottom of the Snow Monkey park (the rest is on foot through a lush hill). Our meals were served in a dining room just for us, and the food was a visual and gastronomic feast. We stayed in the largest room, which has its own en-suite. The ryokan has 3 hot baths, I strongly recommend trying the one outdoors: there’s something poetic about sitting in the hot pool, while rain drizzles and steam rises.

A second stay in an authentic and welcoming ryokan

Beautifully kept and friendly ryokan. The owners were extremely hospitable, and immediately offered to drive us up to the snow monkey park (and helpfully gave us a list of the bus times for getting back!). Dinner was superb and they accommodated our vegan requirements with no issue (but please make sure to ask in advance). We got a list of dietary requirements when we arrived to tick yes/no to for extra peace of mind. Our beds were comfortable, and the private onsen was lovely too. A great rest stop!

Friendly and good value

Amazing experience, we felt welcome. The onsens were lovely it was not far from the station. They took us to the snow monkey park served us good coffee and fabulous dinner. The price was really reasonable for this special experience. We really enjoyed our stay!

Wonderful traditional ryokan - onsen

We stayed here for a night in the middle of March and had the best time.

The onsen is very close to Yudanaka Station so was very easy to find. It was a very nice looking place. They had the most beautiful pond and garden outside. When we arrived the owner asked us if we were going to see the snow monkeys and he offered to drive us up there, which was very much appreciated.

After our visit to the monkeys we went back and they had cooked us the most wonderful vegan sushi. Honestly the food was amazing. Their hospitality was exceptional.

We also tried the private onsen, on account of having tattoos. It was so nice. Hot, but not too hot for me.

Breakfast was again just amazing. 

We would have liked to stayed longer, so will defintely consider going back. We want to thank you for such a nice time. I highly recommend. Staff were friendly and the service was great.

Snow Monkeys!

My husband had amazing ryokan stays in an amazing trip to Magome a few years ago, but with a 1.5 year old we weren’t sure how recreate that experience for ourselves while keeping the little one happy.  Aiming to see the snow monkeys, we  booked a private room with bathroom but without onsen for one night. 

Firstly, the hotel is VERY convenient if you arrive by train. It is literally a 2 minute walk to the station, so you can make the most of your time in Yudanaka. It’s also convenient as the Snow Monkey bus stops thetr

When we arrived at 14.00, we were lucky and were immediately able to go to our room. Which was enormous! It was upstairs, and was the size of our apartment in London. One area was already set for sleeping, and the other area had tea set up for us. The hosts, staff, and some guests we encountered were all also very excited to interact with our son!

We wanted to see the snow monkeys immediately on arrival (the park closes at 16h). Our host was a bit surprised we wanted to leave so soon, but very kindly offered  to drive us to the park himself, and drove us right up to the gate.

After a pleasant time seeing the monkeys, we returned back via bus. Very convenient 2 minute walk from the bus again!

We had dinner at 6 in our own private dining room. The goons was all phenomenal, but the melt-in-your-mouth beef and smoky soup particularly stood out. We fed our 1 year old some of the food complemented by a baby ready meal.

We used both the family onsen (no need to book - very pleasant inside onsen) and my husband and I then enjoyed the outdoor onsen. Which is gorgeous! When I went (women’s hours were from around 19h- 22h, with the rest of the time for men). I was the only user. It was magical with the steam coming off the water. It looks like the postcards that make you dream about onsen. When my husband went, it was snowing! And one other user (at 7am)

We both had a very relaxing sleep. We felt sufficiently far from others that we didn’t feel too worried about the baby crying.

Im the morning another lovely breakfast, and the staff were kind enough to heat up some porridge for our son! 

Overall, it was a really perfect stay.

Gorgeous onsen, convenient location and friendly helpful hosts for family snow monkey trip

A wonderful experience. There are three onsen, two of which are public and can only be used by one gender at a time, and one that locks from the inside for private use (for couples etc). The real star is the outdoor onsen. I used it alone in the morning after breakfast during gentle snowfall and it’s one of my favourite places on earth. The meals are beautiful, both dinner and breakfast consisting of many beautifully presented small plates of various delicious Japanese foods. My girlfriend eats fish but not meat, and they were eager to cater to her requirements, and can also do vegetarian friendly meals. The friendly staff also gave us a lift to the snow monkey park (which is amazing- must visit while in Japan) the day we arrived and showed us where and when to get the bus back from there. Everything from the traditional meals to the traditional rooms to the incredible onsen left us feeling serene and relaxed and light. Fantastic way to experience the Japanese aesthetic and the sense of serenity that this country does so well.

The location is also fantastic, being a 2 minute walk to Yudanaka station is incredibly convenient. Also easy to stop off at Shibu Onsen for a quick explore after visiting the Snow Monkey Park, before jumping back on the bus to go back to the station.

Beautiful, Peaceful Ryokan in a must-visit part of Japan

とても評価が高く期待してましたが、食事も施設も特別なものではありませんでした。税込み18600円支払うなら、もっと良い宿が選択肢に入ります。込み込み10000-15000円ちょっとなら、これくらいでも良いのかなと感じます。肉が信州和牛だったので、それを止めれば、ごく普通のその価格帯の民宿や旅館のものになりますね。

ホームページで確認してクラシック施設を維持してるのかと想像してましたが、各部は現代の素材でお安くリノベしてあるので、全く期待通りではありませんでした。海外の人がこれを伝統的な日本旅館と認識されたら残念です。

露天風呂と泉質は良かったですが、女性は露天風呂の利用ができないままでした。これはかなり残念では。調度品も、プラスチックの急須とかコロナ対策のためなのか？室内のコップは紙コップ。コロナ対策と称して手抜きしてるだけに感じます。

本格的な日本旅館なら、この付近なら安曇野の西谷別荘、福島市なら向瀧をお勧めします。建物、調度品、食事、全てがそこでしか味わえない秀逸なものです。

For those who looking for traditional Japanese Ryokan, I do not recommend here. Artitecture is revnovated with modern and low quality materials.

Very good acess to train station and outside hot spring available for men
only.

If you are looking for traditional Ryokan, I strongly recommend Mukaitaki in Fukushima city. If you are looking for in Nagano Prefecture, Nishiya Bessou has 
it all you want to feel from Japanese style tradional Ryokan.

Especially Mukaitaki is full of old materials from old times. You can stay in Natienal treasure of Artitecture in Japan!!

期待通りでは無い。Disappointing!!

I stayed here in February 2020 but unfortunately that date was no longer an option here for dates. 

Frankly, my stay was brilliant. The room was clean and comfortable. My futon was waiting for me but the kotatsu made my stay even better. It is an old building and unfortunately my neighbours were a little bit inconsiderate with noise levels. However, knocking on the wall helped a little bit. A tatami room has its distinct scent and it smelled like home – everything was clean and comfortable. Even though it was winter, there was a heater to ensure that you stay cozy. 

The room was clean, comfortable, and very good. The onsens were fantastic. There was space and it was incredibly comfortable. I have a tattoo and it was not a problem, which was excellent. I visited the outdoor bath during my turn as well as the indoor ones. I did not have to worry about my tattoo, which was nice. The staff was overall amazing, I got a ride to jigokudani in the morning and had a lovely chat with the driver.  

Overall, the staff and the venue were brilliant and should I return to Yudanaka I would stay here without any hesitation. Thank you ever so much for a brilliant visit!
