Amazing property with even more amazing staff. We stayed for two night during our honeymoon and couldn’t be happier with the experience. It was an authentic yet luxurious Ryokan. Our room was beautifully decorated, spotless and it even had its own onsen. The food was exceptional and the staff was very well trained and extremely friendly. Highly recommended this hotel and would love to go back on day.

Great central location, the Husband offered to drive to and from Yudanaka station and the monkey park. They both were really friendly and welcoming. The whole place felt more authentic than some other more touristy places.

Excellent customer service where staff are attentive to your needs at all time. Even offered a new set of yukata when they noticed ours were slightly wet due to slight rain. Onsen was clean, well maintained and not crowded.

The entire vibe of the ryokan was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay with a wide variety of onsens on top of the private onsen we already have in our room. Service was fabulous; receptionists were extremely detailed and helpful as we asked plenty of questions about the area & public transport. Dinner and breakfast were amazing and delicious. Waitresses were also courteous and pleasant.

I visited to go to the monkey hot spring. It was a very clean and pleasant place. It's a little quiet and remote, but it's just as quiet and peaceful. It's a shame I arrived late and couldn't take a walk around. I left something behind, but the host contacted me right away and took proper steps. Thank you very much. It's a nice accommodation I'd like to stay for a few days. I recommend it.

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.

The lounge is absolutely the highlight, here the Grand Phenix shares three things with you: great local draft beer, a gentle Okushiga snowing view, and a warm firepit. This lounge is so special that you can wait for your dinner table (because of the tight reservation in Christmas season) there while drinking your drinks by a bonfire, this even makes waiting a wonderful experience...

My brother and I enjoyed our 2 night stay. I was pleasantly surprised to get picked up from Yudanka station and we were lucky to be brought to a nearby shinkansen station for our next destination. The staff is top notch and I definitely recommend adding breakfast and dinner to your stay~ the traditional meals were delicious!

Beautiful property! Easy to get around and so homely. Bedroom was kept warm and the shutters really kept the cold out! The bedroom was beautiful designed and had all that we needed. The Onsen were so good and we tried all 3 of them! The staff were so accommodating and super friendly!

The monkeys are marvellous.

The monkeys are marvellous. Of course they are attracted to the valley by the food they receive regularly but they are totally free to come and go. So entertaining and endearing to observe how they interact. The park was created in 1964. Beautiful forest in a mountainous area that grows apples, peaches and grapes and lots of vegetables. Pay attention to the hotel you choose. Avoid Hotel Housei.

I think I would have stayed a little longer (than 3 nights)...

I think I would have stayed a little longer (than 3 nights) to take advantage of the skiing and the onsen's (alternate between the two!), to relax for longer in the Japanese countryside. (I did not come to Japan to just check off the tourist sites...) The town has narrow streets to walk on, even without gps you cannot get lost as it is more or less parallel to the river, especially the more tourist section with all the onsens.

For a tourist location, it was hard to find restaurants open, or willing to seat us (a party of five). But in general the food was good and the location was great for hot springs and access to the snow monkey park.

The Onsen hot springs experience was unique and for anyone wanting to see how the Japanese hold this aspect of their beliefs in such high regard this area is a perfect example and for a couple of days you can immerse yourself in a different cultural and culinary experience that will be the highlight of your holiday and the truest insight of this unique way of life.
