Shibu Onsen KOKUYA
4.6/540 Reviews
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.
Holiday Inn Resort Shinano-Omachi Kuroyon
4.4/564 Reviews
Serene place to be at. Its off season so not much people. The thing i like about here, i don’t really see much foreigner, other than those with tour group. Many local Japanese. The daily breakfast buffet is simple, not too fantastic. Also had their dinner buffet.. its about the same as breakfast…. Ordered lunch on the first day, it is alot nicer than the buffet! Love the onsen. And also the outdoor one that is within walking distance.
Hakuba Mominoki Hotel
4.1/524 Reviews
What an awesome experience! The hotel offered exemplary service before we even arrived. Due to special travel arrangements, we arrived late and the staff quick to arrange an in-room bento dinner for us before our arrival. When we got there, we were immediately blown away by the gorgeousness of the hotel. Despite its age, everything was very clean and polished. I can see that great care had been taken to upkeep the hotel and it’s premises, which are extraordinarily beautiful. We couldn’t resist taking pictures even after check-out, and it took us an hour to finally reluctantly leave. Words cannot actually do the place justice, you must visit there yourself. We were very impressed with how delicious the food was, and the attention to detail, including the placement of the food, the coordination of food color. My mouth is still watering as I recall how delicious it was. I had 10 helpings of their prime rib one day. Besides, I had a dietary restriction and the staff were really careful with that, to the extent of reminding me what dishes not to eat everyday at their breakfast and dinner buffet. In addition to excellent food and service, the hotel went out of its way to be very eco-friendly. For every day that we did not need our room to be tidied, we earned points, which can be traded in for ice cream or other goodies. Finally, the staff spoke perfect English. This is rare indeed, and it made everything so much easier and so much more enjoyable. Thanks for the experience!
Mercure Nagano Matsushiro Resort & Spa
4.1/561 Reviews
About the front desk First of all, I arrived at night, but the atmosphere and attitude of the front desk staff was not very good. They did not help me with my luggage, so I used the cart at the entrance myself. About the amenities The amenities were very substantial. There were amenities in the space next to the elevator, and I had to take what I needed myself. One thing I would like to mention in particular is the wooden toothbrush. It was very comfortable to use, my mouth felt good, and I was impressed by how wonderful it was. About the room The room was large, but there was a lot of wasted space, and the humidity felt very strong overall. The floor was carpeted, but it was damp, and I felt uncomfortable without slippers. The bed was comfortable, but the humidity was a concern here as well. About the room cleaning I stayed for three nights in a row this time, but the room was not cleaned, and bath towels, towels, toilet paper, yukata, etc. were left outside the door. I think they would clean it if you asked. About the hot spring The hot spring was on the third floor, and it was wonderful. There was an indoor bath and an outdoor bath, but the outdoor bath was especially wonderful. The bathroom was clean and had the full Sekkisei line of products, so the amenities were plentiful. About the laundry service There was a washing machine and dryer, and detergent was provided free of charge, so it was easy to use. About the parking lot I was very happy to be able to use it for free. It's a 5-minute drive from Nagano Interchange, so I think it's a very convenient location for those who use this place as a base for traveling by car.
Madarao Kogen Hotel
4/58 Reviews
Love this hotel. The key ingredient: the staff, so very friendly and polite. Especially Uda at the front desk, she was always cheerful, attentive, and went out of her way many times to see to our needs. She is the perfect representative of everything friendly and positive about this resort experience. This was our first ski trip to Japan and the amenities are such a pleasant surprise. The hotel has its own ski rental, lift tickets sold right outside the door, 2 different restaurants, and its own onsen. Which was a new and lovely experience for me. The hotel is a bit older, and the bathroom is small for western standards, but the bidet more than made up for that ( love it ) and the onsen took care of the daily bathing ritual ( for me ). Heater worked well as well as the wi-fi throughout the hotel. The restaurants were a nice convenience, we paid extra for breakfast and dinner vouchers, and it was fun wearing our provided yukatas ( robes ) all day in the hotel ( not required ). The ski runs are well marked, and the ski lodges had delicious Japanese fare that blew our minds. And the Madapow! ( Madarao powder ) generously snowed down on us. Overall, would highly recommend Madarao Kogen Hotel. Again, arigato gozaimasu to Uda and the entire hotel staff that made our 3 day stay so very lovely and relaxing. Would definitely stay here again in the future. Fred Ermac, Jan 2025
Karuizawa Prince Hotel West
4.5/5420 Reviews
We stayed in a room accommodating 3 people. The sofa bed is big in principle big enough for my daughter but she found it easily falling down probably because the base is a sofa which is apparently smaller than the mattress! The hotel room is generally clean. We had a shabushabu and teriyaki dinner at the hotel which was relatively expensive but the quality is excellent and we found it worth a try! More importantly, the hotel is conveniently located near the outlet where we had a happy shopping spree😊
In Hirugami-No-Mori
4.5/57 Reviews
The location is accessible from the Kanto region to the central road Iida Yamamoto IC and from the Nagoya area to the sonohara IC in 10 minutes. It was late 11, so I thought of safety and installed a snow tire and visited. The hotel lends mat and cold clothes for starry sky observation for a fee. There are many inn and each accommodation plan in this hot spring village. There was also a plan with a starry sky tour in this hotel. I applied for a starry sky tour from the inn. The number of tours is limited because you use the gondola to the place to observe. Unfortunately, I entered the hot spring that canceled the tour of the cloudy sky. I decided to look forward to the next starry sky because it was a thick cloud that gradually saw the moon from the open-air bath. The room and hot springs were clean. The next morning, the windshield was frost, so I parked the car in the direction of Asahi. The hotel's accommodation plan allows you to book a mountain hut-like light use, a luxurious meal plan and additional dishes in advance.
Hotel Route-Inn Komagane Inter
4.1/564 Reviews
Stayed over for a night as it was one of the hotels nearest to the shuttle bus terminals to get to Komagane. Location wise, very convenient, only about 10 minutes drive to the bus terminal/ bus stops. There is also a COCO curry restaurant just beside or if you can take the car out, it will be just a few minutes drive to many sauce-katsu don places - this is famous in the area. It was a little pricey considering the current situation but at least everything was clean. Size of the rooms were standard Japanese size. Free parking too. There is a manmade onsen on the ground floor. Seems just like a big bathing spa though since the onsen isnt natural. Went at a good time and the onsen was empty. That was good. Covid-19 prevention was good, plastic disposable hand gloves were provided for the breakfast buffet in the morning. Overall, just another normal Japanese chain hotel but the location made up for it, if you are heading to Komagane.
The Prince Karuizawa
4.6/573 Reviews
First thing about the hotel is that it js huge hence if you stay here , you really need to do lots of walking. I was given a room in the B wing and most of the amenities are in the other wings. The hotel is on a massive ground with East and West side also with standalone cottages. The West side from what I knew is the more economical one, but walking from the wings within the West side is already a real workout. The location of the hotel is within walking distance from the JR Karuizawa station but the hotel runs free shuttle service regularly stopping right at the lobby of West side. The room is simplistic and well maintained typical in most Japanese hotels. What I like is that the wash basin is outside the shower room. Nothing fanciful about the room but large enough to have a sofa even for the basic rooms. As mentioned walking from my side of the wing to the onsen is a good 10 mins walk and also to the self service laundry area. Breakfast is good but very expensive if you did not include it at almost 4000 yen per person. There is a Famjly Mart convenience store right in the hotel which solves most of the issues. Overall a very decent hotel in this area.
HOTEL LiVEMAX PREMIUM Nagano-Ekimae
4.4/5212 Reviews
My husband and I were here to visit some friends who stayed in the area. The hotel is very near the station, about 3-4mins walk away. It's also a quiet estate but there are still several restaurants nearby, with convenience stores. The hotel also provides free bicycle rentals which was awesome. Free daily breakfast is included; good for saving costs and time to look for your own food. Very helpful and cheerful staff too.
