Hotels near Onsenji temple in Nagano

We stayed for 2 nights on a cheap tour around the cherry blossoms in Shinshu, which is a round trip of ”Azusa” from Tokyo to Chino, sightseeing in Matsumoto and Ueda by bus, and going to Takato on the next 々 day. The total amount is 34,000 yen, so I think the cost to divide it into the hotel is limited. So I didn't expect the hotel. Even if it is called Yutanaka Onsen, it is located on Honami Onsen on the opposite bank of the Segawa River at night. Yutanaka Onsen is also lonely, but this side is lonely. I think I'm doing my best while there are ruined hotels and inns around, but the facilities are quite tired. I think the degree of tiredness in the guest rooms is especially advanced. It is a consecutive night for 2 nights, but cleaning and lifting and lowering the futon are omitted. Yukata and bath towels were prepared for 2 nights. In such a case, dinner is a room meal, so the table is placed beside it, and the lighting is not hit, so it gives a dark impression. Room meals are also a point in the tour guide, but it is not a point as a service, but one of the halls is the breakfast venue and the other is the banquet hall, so you have to eat in the room. The reality is that I think so. When I stayed, another group was having a banquet and the sound of karaoke was noisy. It is not recommended for those with bad legs as you go down the stairs once from the front desk and take the elevator. Room meals are a set of kaiseki, but there are two dishes to warm with a stove, but otherwise they are cold. I think it would be good if we could reheat it in the same way. We put it on the side of the stove dish and reheated it. I think it would be convenient to have solid fuel, aluminum foil and lighter. The room has a guide to recommended additional dishes, but if you order, you should make it early the day before. There are few staff at the restaurant at breakfast, and milk and dishes are cut off immediately in the juice, but replenishment is slow. When I asked the staff because the coffee was out, I heard a voice from the corridor saying ”Ko ― Hee Coffee is noisy!” The person came back, so when I liked it, I turned my butt to this side without stopping the cleaning hand and said, ”I'm sorry.” I went to the front desk and reported it and I read it immediately and apologized. However, I know that I am not a thankful person, so I asked him not to meet at the restaurant the next morning. The next morning I was surprised to see a lot of young staff. The only hot spring is fed directly from the source, and the hot water flows so much that it is a waste. It was nice to collect a little. There is no sauna, but the open-air bath was also good. It was a bit disappointing stay, but there is no bad impression except for breakfast.

On such a hot day, there is no air-conditioning on the 4th floor. I vaguely feel that there is discrimination in the room booked through Ctrip. The next day we negotiated to change to the 6th floor.

Staying at Shimaya was the most delightful experience in so many respects. We were picked up from the station, by one of the staff and after check in, he took us to the snow monkey park where we had a wonderful day. On our return, we were met by Mr Yumoto who was very kind and helpful, giving us information on a local onsen and places to eat. The room was big and comfortable with a balcony and a great view of the town and mountains. The breakfast in the morning was an event in itself! There was a pianola playing in the background and Mr Yumoto came down and put on his vintage jukebox and played some Beatle records. It was so nice to see his pride in his establishment. The breakfast was fresh and plentiful. On our return to Australia, we met up with friends who coincidentally had also stayed at Shimaya and had similarly found it superb. I can highly recommend Shimaya as a place to stay in Yamanouchi.

We stayed in one of the rooms with a private onsen. It was a large room with two beds on the floor and a dining area. There was also a tiny makeup area/table on the side that I truly appreciated. The in-room onsen was large and comfortable. It had a large window that opens which brings in the refreshing cool air. The Skintheque toiletries were luxurious and perfect. The large shower was also a plus for us. Food was unbelievable. I was able to try new tastes and flavours I won't soon forget. The breakfast chicken with tomato and onion was a surprise. Dinner's abalone was also a revelation. My DH is a tall and large man. We truly appreciated the length of the bed, the size of the shower and onsen. The only problem is that the hotel staff is not very well-versed in English, though they do try their best.

From the moment you enter Kokuya Ryokan, be prepared to leave the real world behind and fully immerse yourself in the experience. You swap your shoes for slippers at the door and don’t see them again until you leave. You will receive a warm welcome from polite and gentle-mannered staff, get taken up to your beautiful room, and once you’ve changed into your traditional yukata, it’s time to let the relaxation begin. The multi-course dinner will probably be one of the best meals you’ve had in your life, with many unusual textures and flavors to try. The futons are comfortable, and your room is kept toasty warm. There are even skincare products to keep you pampered and moisturized between soaks in the onsen. Honestly, you won’t even need to open your suitcase while you’re there. The staff will take you through all the logistics when you arrive, but there are some things that might be useful to know in advance. - The ryokan sends a shuttle to Yudanaka station at about 15:00 to collect new arrivals, so time your journey to take advantage of this benefit. - The ryokan also offers guests the opportunity to catch a shuttle to the Snow Monkey Park immediately after breakfast the next morning. - After you leave the ryokan, they will take your luggage down to the coffee shop opposite the station, so you don’t need to worry about those logistics. - Trains from Yudanaka back to Nagano leave at 12:30 and 15:30. - The ryokan itself has several private onsens that you can reserve for a 45-minute slot. Because the onsens are on the property, you can go in with your partner or travel companions regardless of gender. It’s a boutique hotel, so you don’t have to worry about not getting access to all the onsens you want. - The ryokan is on the main road of the Shibu Onsen town. The hotel will give you a key so you can wonder down the main road, visiting any of the public onsens you wish - however, with so many gorgeous and more private onsens in the hotel itself, you probably won’t have time or the desire for this. - Also, there is a coffee machine in the room! (I was worried about having to survive without coffee, and this turned out to be an unfounded concern). We had an incredible and totally indulgent time at Kokuya. Experiencing a traditional ryokan is a privilege that you should try at least once if you can. And adding the Snow Monkeys in give the trip a double purpose, making it that much more memorable. The only thing that would have made the trip better is if we had been allowed to linger longer over every course of our dinner.

What a lovely spot! 2 minutes walk from the train station, we stayed in a traditional Japanese room which was great fun. The room was huge, 2 comfortable futons, low table with floor seats, kettle in the room (bring your own tea or coffee) and a good shower. The owners were extremely helpful despite the language barrier (Google translate was successfully used). They advised us on onward train timetables, gave us a ride to the Snow Monkeys Park saving us having to wait for the bus, picked us up again, gave my husband and I a private onsen session and delivered a huge cooked Chinese breakfast to our room in the morning. When we left they gave us an ornamental chopsticks set as a gift. Can highly recommend this ryokan.

This hotel is close to Nagano train station, the room is clean but the bed is a bit smaller than the normal queen size bed. Like the in house onsen. You msy keep your luggage at the hotel after check out, it's FOC.

Our group stayed at this ryokan after snowboarding the day before. We absolutely loved everything about it here! The hosts were incredibly welcoming and kind in explaining everything to us in Japanese/English. Location: - Brief walk from the station to get to the ryokan. - Short walk to a sister location nearby, where you can also use their onsen. The ryokan itself has two onsens split by gender (switches based on time), and groups are allowed to reserve a time slot for private use of the onsen. Check your reservations to make sure you have dinner and breakfast included! They had a variety of dishes for breakfast (tamago, grilled fish, fruit/yogurt, fresh juices, natto, braised dishes). My friend and I had never worn yukatas before, so the hostess taught us! Again, I cannot emphasize how much we enjoyed staying here as they had the best hospitality throughout the two weeks we spent in Japan. Tips: - Book early! - It was pretty cold while we were there, so make good use of the kotatsu. - When we arrived to check-in, I think a few other guests had already checked-in before us. There are a few activities where they asked us for a preferred time slot (i.e. private onsen time, breakfast, etc), so be sure to check-in on time or contact them if you have any scheduled plans.
