Kamei no Yu

旅館主人很親切，希望下次能再拜訪。

Very nice staff and spotlessly clean. Hot spring in hotel is not big but very enjoyable as there’s seldom anyone else. Good to try the partner big hot spring across the corner.

スタッフの方にはとてもアットホームで丁寧な対応して頂き、様々な温泉施設に入浴出来楽しめ、料理もとてもおいしく満足出来ました。綺麗な庭園を眺めながら、安心してゆっくり寛ぐことが出来ました。

加命の湯は思っていたより小さな宿でよろずやさんでお風呂、食事をとりました。宿に戻り、とてもリラックス出来、朝風呂、朝食は加命の湯で、係の人の対応や何よりよろずやさんより綺麗に掃除がしてあった事が私的には良かったです。

Unbeatable hospitality. I would definitely stay here again.

This traditional ryokan Onsen experience felt like traveling back in time to how Japan was years ago. We loved staying there for a night, having a half hour of free private onsen hot spring time, wearing the traditional clothing they provided and eating the traditional meal at the Beauitful restaurant down the street that is included… an experience we will always remember!

We loved Kamei no Yu! The staff was welcoming and kind. Our room was lovely, clean and looked out onto the garden with lamps. We recieved a welcome sweet with tea, and some snacks in our room. We were able to reserve a bath time in the ryokan. It was a little unclear at booking that the more historic baths and also dinner was at a larger ryokan up the road just a bit. We didn't mind, especially if it keeps a smaller more personal ryokan in business. We only were here one night so we could visit the monkey park. The last time we were in the area was 2008. The town still feels quiet and I imagine most people come for the monkeys and head back to Nagano or elsewhere. I'm happy we stayed and I highly recommend bringing your business not only to the park but to the local ryokan and other businesses.

We loved this hotel! It was the perfect place to explore the snow monkey park and also experience the local Onsen towns, a must do in Japan. The room was super spacious and cosy, and the staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, adding plenty of extra touches such as warm matcha on arrival and teas and juices for the road when we checked out pre-breakfast. Some of the staff speak English but those who don’t are happy to use translate apps to communicate. They made us feel very at home! The highlight for us was definitely the two in-house onsen, which can be booked privately once a day per room. Also included in the room rate was a 10 course traditional dinner and a wonderful traditional breakfast. This truly was a full traditional Japanese experience, much more than just a hotel. We highly recommend making a trip to Yudanaka during your trip to Japan and staying here!

Really cost place with excellent food both at breakfast and dinner, service great. Nice small town

This is one of the most delightful Japanese full emergence experience you could have. We traveled from Tokyo which in itself a incredible trip by train. Protip: take an uber from the train station. You are greeted like family and your dinner, breakfast and onsen (Japanese hot spring bath) are planned. They offer two different ones in house. Staying in a traditional room is the perfect way to round out the stay. The hotel has beautiful gardens which you can enjoy from the lobby and rooms. The town main street is lined with bars, cafes and more hot spring baths! Dinner is served at a near by (5 min walk) hotel that reminds me of the Kill Bill movie. It is located near the Monkey park. Which is a journey. Walk down to bus stop. Take bus to town. Walk to park entrance then walk 2 miles to pay to go to hot spring where the monkeys gather. Note if you want to see monkey. Go in the dead of winter. Dec-Feb. The park does rent snow boots and gear. I highly recommend this stay. Its rustic beauty and friendly people takes you back in time.

Amazing Ryoken, with shared access to a second hotel for dining and onsen options. Exceptional hospitality by owners and staff. This was a treasured experience I would fully recommend for others.

The staff were extremely nice and helpful and the Onsen was super relaxing!

Me and my mom had a wonderful stay at this traditional Ryokan. Every detail in this hotel was amazing. The room was precious, the food was delicious and the onsen was incredible. I would recommend anyone wanting to have a unique Japanese experience to stay at this wonderful Ryokan.

Amazing stay with top notch service that lets you experience a true Japanese hospitality with the ever friendly and helpful staff.

This place is amazing. Service is wonderful. Food is extraordinary and there are 2 excellent hot springs in hotel. One of best experiences of my 2 week trip.

Absolutely lovely accommodations, experience japanese living and tranquility with beautiful garden view. The staff and their attentiveness is first class. Truly elevated our Japan trip and definitely a place to revisit.

別の旅館ではありましたが素晴らしい温泉を楽しめました。旅館の温泉も時間制貸風呂となっており、ゆっくり気兼ねなく使えました。泉質も良かったです。

一泊でしたがとてもゆっくりと充実した時間を過ごすことが出来ました。スタッフの方の対応が温かくて居心地良かったです。

Very welcoming staff and Ryokan. Tomo san is the best host. Breakfast and dinner food was excellent! Great place to stay!

Très beau petit Ryokan, beaucoup de charme, avec un personnel au petit soin et plein d'attentions au quotidien. Le petit déjeuner japonais est exceptionnel de qualité. On a accès d'autre part au fabuleux bains Momoyama a proximité. Un lieu à recommander absolument pour ceux qui veulent passer quelques jours dans la région
