The owner was super sweet and helpful (driving to the monkey park and the train station). The onsen were great, the private onsen was almost all the time available! A spacious room and the little town felt like a little fairytale (it was snowing when we were there).

The traditional atmosphere of the space was gorgeous and cozy. The host and staff were amazing, very helpful and kind. Location was perfect for everything we wanted to explore and the private onsen was to die for! The photos don't do this place justice. Would definitely stay here again!

We had an unforgettable stay at Sakaeya, which was our first time in a ryokan. The building, well-located in Shibu Onsen, is large with a few floors and quite a number of rooms, but feels very peaceful and quiet when walking through it. The traditional room was comfortable and spacious, and the staff fantastic. The public onsen in the hotel is clean, modern and large, and we particularly enjoyed the outside area. The dinner far exceeded all of our expectations, and was a highlight of our whole trip in Japan. We found the price to be largely justified by the quality of the amenities, meals and service.

We stayed at Shiyama for two nights as we needed to decompress during our trip across Japan (so much walking and hiking). We absolutely loved our stay here. The owner is such an amazing host. He drove us around, gave great recommendations, and answered any questions we might have had. We'll definitely stay here again when we come back to Japan.

Early July, we were the only travellers so we had the onsen to ourselves. There was male, female and private onsen available. There was excellent service, and they welcomed our young toddlers. We got driven to the Jigokudani Monkey Park and picked up by Yumoto-san. Yumoto-san and his wife also helped style our family in yukata for photos.

The staff were so friendly and helpful. A delightful little town. This ryokan has its own private onsens. We didn't have to book and could use any onsen privately if it was vacant. A great way for people who are anxious about shared bath houses to enjoy this experience. Breakfast (traditional Japanese and western) was so delicious. A beautiful serene experience. 10/10 recommend.

Alkira and Yumi were wonderful hosts with nothing too much trouble. The room was fabulous. Comfy futons and all facilities. Immaculately clean. The onsen baths were amazing. We had dinner and breakfast which were magnificent, served in an elegant dinning room. Yumi is a marvellous chef. Alkira drove us to the Snow Monkeys Park and to the station the next morning. We only stayed 1 night. Wish we'd stayed longer. We will be back

It was an exceptional cultural experience in an authentic Japanese place. The hotel offers rooms in a traditional style, while we also enjoyed wearing national yukata dresses and taking onsen baths, which are included. We have heard a lot about excellent Japanese service and now we indeed experienced it. The personnel approaches each customer with personal touch and satisfies individual needs. A so nice and memorable stay at Tsubakino!

Our stay in Ikariya Ryokan was amazing. The room was spacious and cosy, the location was perfect and the staff was super helpful, hospitable and welcoming. The futon beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed the onsen. Our special thanks for the staff for taking into consideration our vegetarian diets and preparing amazing and delicious breakfasts for us, we really appreciated it! Hopefully we can visit again some day.

A beautiful Onsen-Ryokan located in a quiet and tranquil area not too far from the Snow Monkey Park. The facilities are beautiful, especially the large spacious rooms with private onsens. The dinner was fantastic, and a great introduction to traditional, local Japanese cuisine. There are many rooms and quiet areas throughout the Ryokan to sit and relax. The staff were lovely and accommodating and we loved our visit.

My favourite Onsen-Ryokan experience! The property is beautiful, the baths were beautiful and the dinner and breakfast were exceptional! You can use either of the two baths privately, which was wonderful for my partner and myself. The owners of this Ryokan are the most accommodating and welcoming people who go above and beyond for their guests - we loved it!
