The staff were amazing and very accommodating with bags. They actually have a pick up service depending on your arrival and departure times. This was a bonus since it worked out when we were leaving. Our room was very spacious and comfortable!

Would recommend!
Would highly recommend this inn for a stay in the Japanese Alps. The staff are absolutely amazing - nothing is too much trouble for them and they're always around to offer you help and support. There is a free shuttle service both to and from the train station and up to the Monkey park. The rooms are spacious and we were very comfortable on our futons ☺️ The onsen hopping is also a great attraction...worth the trip out of the city to see!

The staff were very friendly and helpful making this a relaxed and comfortable stay. It is an old building but well kept. Not as fancy as some places down the road but extra charming. The public onsens were fun to try. Their shuttles are well organized and we had no trouble booking the times to private onsen and monkey park that we wanted. Excellent service and stay and would return and recommend to others.

This hotel and this city was the best part of my Japan trip. I loved staying in a traditional old Japanese ryokan, and I absolutely loved hoping around to all the onsens! Note, they are extremely hot! The staff was wonderful and very accomodating. They offer free shuttle rides to the monkey park or to the train station, so that is wonderful. Ate once there for breakfast, and it was delicious!

Authentic yet casual ryokan experience. Staff are so accommodating - picked us up at Yudanaka Station outside of normal pickup hours, advised us to stay in the waiting room (freezing cold in February). Following day, drove us to Snow Monkey Park, first stop to drop our luggage, then to the entrance. I accidentally left my Snow Monkey Pass in my luggage, and she drove me back to the first spot to retrieve it!! Thank you for your generous heart ;)))

The staff was really nice and the food (dinner and breakfast) was pretty good, but the room was a bit disappointing, I spent about US$160 for one night there for two and found 21 stinkbugs (kamemushi) in the bedroom.

really old ryokan but exceptional services
First of all, it’s an old ryokan and not much has been done to upgrade. Reviews are high in some travel services but do know that rooms do not come with a private bath; the place does not have its own onsen; and you may see some beetles in your room. If you want to experience what people used to travel to a hot spring resort 50 years ago, then this is your place. Staff are extremely helpful and nice and I wish I can give them more stars.

The place was perfect, the room and sheets a little old, but confortable. The restaurant of the hotel was good, small plate but not too expensive. The only negative point was when we arrived, the reception was close and the personn who open us the door looks like not soo happy to reveive travelers...But the rest of the staff was really nice, offer free shuttle to the train station, onsen,.....We recommend!
