I loved my stay here! The food was amazing. The onsite Onsen (for hotel guests) was wonderful. The staff were kind and patient with my lack of Japanese language. I loved the snow monkeys at Jigokudani. The town has several small (delicious) bakeries and ramen lunch places. The whole visit was a delight.

Very warm and welcoming team, shuttle services are offered for pickup and drop off at Yudanaka station.l and also to Snow Monkey Park. The room is spacious and equipped with all the amenities. Free drinks offered in room and also in lobby. We booked breakfast and dinner which was such a sensory and delicious experience. I used the private outdoor onsen both days and really enjoyed the experience. All in all a healing 3 day 2 night vacation thanks to the hotel’s hospitality.

Our stay at Shibu Hotel was a memorable highlight of our trip. The staff were extremely helpful and provided us with boots and umbrellas after we told them we wanted to venture out into the rain to view the monkey park. Our dining experiences were equally as pleasant with the staff greeting us and explaining the menus to us in detail. The area around the hotel was quiet and peaceful as well. On top of that all, the private bath offered was the last relaxing piece of the puzzle we needed. Thank you to all the staff members present!

We thoroughly enjoyed our Ryoken experience. We stayed in the Japanese style room and had dinner and breakfast. Both exceeded our expectations. The meals were served in our own private room and were very elaborate and delicious. So many different dishes were included. The staff were very nice. The onsen experience was also very fun. Finally, they made it so convenient to visit the snow monkeys upon arrival. Highly recommend.

This traditional Onsen and inn has excellent staff that is very patient, kind, thoughtful, and pays attention to details. They were very friendly, and willing to speak English to explain and introduce new foods. No matter what time we stopped by front desk, they answered our questions with a smile. They cleaned mud off our shoes after our visit to snow monkey park. Their shuttle service to park and train station was super helpful. They even returned my mother’s forgotten hat to her on the rapid express train before we left town after check out.

Staying the night here was unnecessary and expensive. I would advise you to visit the monkey park and then continue onward to wherever you’re headed. Having said that should you decide to spend the night, the room was large comfortable and well appointed. Beds were comfy and there was free tea and beverages in the public lounge. The kaiseki dinner was good but the breakfast was a single tray set menu. No buffet. It’s a sleepy town with 9 onsens, so spring onwards might be worth to get the onsen key, put on your Yukata and go to town (sic). The owners brother drives the shuttle to the money park and the station. He is a lovely person!!! Oh and don’t miss the Chokkun Izakaya. The owner is a character alongwith his wife so you will have a very enjoyable and filling meal - guaranteed.
