The ryokan has a very quiet and relaxing ambience and provides utmost comfort to the guests. It was my first onsen experience and turned out to be amazing amidst bountiful snowfall. It was easy to tune out of hectic modern lifestyle and yet enjoy nature's wonders with all the modern comforts at Minakamikan.

We stayed in a Japanese style room with a private open-air onsen which was fantastic. The room was a very nice Japanese style room with tatami mats, a lovely view of the mountains in the distance, and the Tone river running right by the hotel. The kaiseki dinner was incredible, we've never had anything like that meal. Our beds were made while we were eating, the futons were so comfortable and the duvets were the fluffiest I think I've ever felt. We can't vouch for the public baths in the building since we just used our private one. Overall, it was an amazing experience, one we would love to replicate at some point in the future if possible. Highly recommend if you're looking for a traditional ryokan experience.

How to go to Zazan Minakami from Airport

Planning your hotel transfer from the airport to Zazan Minakami? Here are a few options to consider, depending on your budget and time constraints. Getting from Narita (NRT) or Haneda (HND) Airport to Minakami requires a bit of planning, but it's definitely achievable!

  • Train (Fastest): Take the Narita Express (from NRT) or the Tokyo Monorail (from HND) to Tokyo Station. From Tokyo Station, transfer to the Joetsu Shinkansen (bullet train) to Jomo-Kogen Station. From Jomo-Kogen Station, take a local bus or taxi to Zazan Minakami. This is the fastest option, taking approximately 2.5 - 3 hours.
  • Bus (Most Affordable): From either Narita or Haneda, take an airport limousine bus to Tokyo Station. From Tokyo Station, you can catch a highway bus to Minakami. This option is more budget-friendly but takes longer, around 4-5 hours.
  • Taxi (Most Direct): A taxi directly from either airport to Zazan Minakami is possible, but it will be the most expensive option, costing upwards of ¥30,000 (approximately SGD 300) and taking around 3-4 hours depending on traffic.
  • Ride Hailing (Convenient): While ride-hailing services are available, they might not be readily available for long-distance trips to Minakami. It's best to pre-book a private car service if you prefer this option.

Tips: For the most convenient route, consider taking the train to Jomo-Kogen Station and then a short taxi ride to Zazan Minakami. This balances speed and cost effectively. Pre-booking your Shinkansen tickets is recommended, especially during peak season.

The local area was a bit of a dead spot with not a lot going on and limited restaurants. We didn't eat in the hotel as the food choice was limited and quite expensive and by the condition of the rest of the hotel we judged it might not be that god. Can't fault the service though. As always with the Japanese they were lovely.

A little confusion with the reservation. I had booked a room with 2 beds and tatami area, but when we phoned in advance to check we were told we only had a Japanese style room (no beds, just futons). After a few phone calls with Expedia, all was resolved successfully. Minamikan is very nice, right in the middle of town so able to walk to a few of the restaurants on the main street. Dinner is the highlight - well prepared traditional Japanese. They also have a good 3 local sake set. The baths are supposed to be a feature - not so special but nice enough. Room was fine, but wifi only in lobby area. It's a big ryokan but not so big car park. They park your car for you so you may have to wait a few minutes in the morning for them to get it out. Overall, nice place, good stay.

Minakamikan has good views from its lobby and its lobby is huge although a bit dated. As we paid for the 'run of house room', we got a huge room with twin beds and a tatami seating area. It was great value. We totally enjoyed the experience. The room can easily accomodate 5 pax. The room had only the road view and so, not much to be excited about. However, we arrived late and it was not easy to finally found a small restaurant for basic food. The Japanese breakfast buffet at the hotel had a good selection of Japanese preserved vegetables. It was good enough. I would definitely like to return again and try its half-board room.

A very under rated hotel in a great location overlooking the Tonegawa river. The area has suffered recently as locals (meaning the Japanese) find it as easy and cheap to holiday overseas as it is to holiday domestically in Japan. Staff were great (although like almost any other counter situation a ringing telephone takes preference over a waiting guest). Once I told the check in staff to leave the phone to someone else after taking 2 calls while we were waiting, he became attentive and efficient. Room was comfortable and clean, the onsen was good.
