Great place to stay before or after seeing snow monkeys

Both Indoor and Outdoor onsens are incredible. Staffs may not speak english but very lovely and willing to help.

A bit walking distance from Shibu onsen public bath area. But if you satisfied with the hotel's onsen, it won't be a problem.

Insuperable

Nos encantó. Hotel tipo tradicional, con tatami, futón, sauna y baños termales exteriores e interiores. Ubicación muy cerca del parque de los monos. Te llevan en coche hasta la entrada del parque y hasta la estación cuando tengas que marcharte. Personal super servicial y amable. Desayuno tipo buffet (super variada y rica) y cena tradicional japonesa. Lo recomiendo 100% y volvería sin dudarlo, fue el mejor hotel de mi viaje con diferencia. Hablan inglés y además uno de los cocineros es americano, por lo que el idioma no es problema.

La cena no nos convenció del todo.

The LA BURGER was the highlight

Huge spacious room. The LA Burger served at its cafe next door was super delicious. Good added on transfer service, to and fro station, and to the snow monkey park .

Interior looks kind of old, and there was a stench from the toilet when I first checked into my room. Well I mentioned that to front desk, and they got some cleaning underway. Slight improvement after.

Helpful staff…. But not quite what we were after

Very helpful elderly couple at front desk and ready available shuttle on demand Large room with river and Mountain View

No kettle and hot water provided was not really hot enough. Pillows were bags of small rocks ( with in western option) Futons were too hard for our taste but probably normal. Sadly the onsen was so hot it was not possible to get in it! The town itself has very little open so meal options were sadly lacking

Loveliest hotel run by the loveliest owners

This hotel is amazing!! The owners are so lovely and kind - they picked us up from the bus stop and also dropped us in the town after we’d checked out. The traditional dinner was UNREAL - could not recommend more highly! Gorgeous traditional rooms! Loved our stay!

Really nice place with super friendly stuff, nice views and great onsens. The lack of food options and the general remot

The location was quite nice for a 1-2 day stay. Walking distance to the monkey park( if you are ready to walk 2.5 km, but during winter it’s a nice walk) The onsen town is quite atmospheric as well. The onsen inside the hotel was great. It can get a little bit too hot, but the open air one usually has a nice temperature( during winter at least) The rooms are spacious, really warm, authentic and clean.

The location is nice if you want to visit the monkey park and go for some skiing at Shiga Kogen. But other than that, there is not a lot to do. If you are looking for a relaxing stay it’s really nice, but if you want to explore it might be a bit boring. The place is also quite remote so the trip to central Nagano city will set you back 1300 yen one way. Which adds up a lot when you travel with a family. The nearest combini is also 15 minutes away by foot and the food options in the hotel itself were quite limited and frankly a little bit too expensive. There is no private onsen, but it wasn’t a problem for us since there were not a lot of people bathing at one time, so it felt almost private.

Nice family run hotel that provides a homely feel throughout.

Family run traditional Japanese hotel with tatami rooms and futons for bedding. The hosts were very helpful even with their limited English and made our stay very comfortable.

The hotel is not new and updated, conveniences like usb charging is not available.

Overall it was a very pleasant stay and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly.

The open air bath was very nice. The dinner was also very delicious and they accommodated my allergy very well. The room was large and comfortable as well.

The individual room bathroom didn’t provide shampoo or conditioner and the heaters in the rooms only had one heat setting so it got very hot when it was on.

Very disappointing, as the one thing I came to Shibu for I couldn’t do because I stayed here

It was cool to see a traditional style Japanese room. The city was quite nice, and the staff were very friendly and thorough in the welcome and induction.

I booked this hotel specifically because I wanted to visit the 9 public onsens. I emailed around and this hotel said I could if I stayed here. When I arrived they told me I had to walk 30 minutes to a shop to get the key that would give me access, and that it closed at 9pm. I went there at 6 and the store was closed. I went back to the hotel, and the in-house onsen was very disappointing. A lady mentioned that only hotels within shibu can visit and this hotel is not. I had previously booked a cheaper hotel with a better in-house onsen outside the shibu area, but changed the booking specific for the 9 onsens. I wouldn’t book here again as there are cheaper better places.

Best in the Area!

Incredible! The best onsen in the area - it faces the mountains and sunset and stars at night. Steaming hot. Van ride to and from the station - arranged a ride to the monkey park and an excellent breakfast. I’ll absolutely be coming back - thanks!!

2 nuits pour profiter du lieu et me promener à Shibu-Osen à 15mn à pied de l’hôtel. La neige commençait à tomber.

Son côté grand hôtel d’une autre époque. Son très grand Onsen avec vue panoramique sur la vallée. Petit déjeuner japonais servi en buffet. Extra.

Our stay was relaxing and fantastic!

The room was larger than we had expected and the views we had were spectacular. The staff were very friendly and attentive. The dinner we ordered from the hotel was excellent. I used the bath facilities and, again, was wowed by the view from the outdoor bath. We would absolutely love to stay here again.

また行きたい！

スタッフの方達がとても親切で明るく、親戚の家に遊びに来たような雰囲気でした。気温の低い時に行ったので、露天風呂にずっと入っていてものぼせることなく、とても気持ちよかったです。

建物が古いので、建物全体に少し染み付いたニオイがある気がしました。

This was such a quirky hotel. We were picked up by shuttle from the station. We did the dinner, bed and breakfast option. It was such a great experience. Dinner was served in a banquet room for us. 4 of our group didn't eat fish and so they adapted the menu. We also got dropped to the monkey park and they showed how to get back by bus. Loved the hot springs and beauty products. Mountain views from our room Futons on the floor. Great fun
