A 7-minute walk from Yudanaka Train Station, Yorozuya features hot spring baths, a hot tub and Japanese-style rooms with a private terrace and private bathroom. It offers karaoke facilities and Japanese cuisine, while free Wi-Fi is provided at the lobby.

A true ryokan experience with an exceptional food service. This heritage building is well-kept, dignified, and an absolute delight. There was no need to leave the building to have a satisfying bath—indoor or outdoor. I loved the private bath, and the overall tradition of the ryokan. The staff was so accommodating of our late check-in, took care to deliver our luggage to the station while we go to the Snow Monkey Park, and were attentive to our needs.

Akira and Yumi were exceptional hosts, super friendly and polite. The ryokan was even more beautiful than in the pictures. The private onsen was wonderful and we were able to go there whenever we wanted. The breakfast and dinner were delicious. Akira and Yumi were also able to cater for my multiple allergies which amazed me. Our room had a beautiful view overlooking the river. The sound of the white water was relaxing.

At Daymaruya Ryokan, guests can enjoy hot-spring baths and traditional Japanese-style accommodations with free wired internet access. A free shuttle is available from Yudanaka Train Station, which is a 5-minute drive away.

Excellent stay in a traditional Ryokan. The couple running the hotel are absolutely fantastic, offering to drive us to the Monkey Park and collect/drop us off at the train station (a 15 minute walk away) and were very helpful in giving recommendations and informative leaflets about the area. There was a Onsen in the hotel that was private for the guests and the stay also included free use of all 14 public Onsens in the village. The room was enormous with a private toilet and fridge (no shower as this was within the Onsen space). We were worried about the comfort of the tatami mat beds but they were very comfortable. Air conditioning and heating both available in the room. Lovely choice of restaurants in the area and beautiful little village. Breakfast and dinner options available but we did not use this.

Looking for a property with onsen?

Featuring traditional Japanese hot springs known as ‘onsen’, these hotels allow you to take a relaxing soak in therapeutic geothermal waters. Traditionally, onsens were located outdoors but a number of hotels also offer indoor facilities for private or shared use. The healing properties of each onsen will vary depending on its location, with ‘kuroyu’ black water known for its positive effects on skin.

    Magical location, super kind and helpful people, my room was a dream with a fantastic view over the river and mountains. Even though it's not directly in Shibu Onsen and you therefore don't have access to the onsens there, the private Onsen in Yamazakiya Ryokan was beautiful and so peaceful. Their breakfast was a great experience too. I'd highly recommend and look forward to coming back another time.

    Beautiful boutique-feeling ryokan with really wonderful staff. We celebrated two birthdays and I was able to coordinate the delicious cakes over email. They even helped us take a photo and printed it out so we all had a little souvenir <3 So thoughtful! The rooms and building were lovely, as was the outdoor onsen. We did the private onsen experience too which was a little extra, but worth it especially to spend time with a partner. Food was tasty and yukatas were very pretty. Felt like a little dream.

    The ryokan is very clean and orderly. Mother and daughter run the place. They have great customer service. I also spent ¥6K for their dinner, and comparable to the few nearby restaurants. Especially nearby small restaurants need to be pre-booked. Location is great few blocks from the train station to Nagano City. Also few bus routes that take you to Snow Money Park and skiing areas. I was able to schedule a 30 minute slot for my private use of the outdoor onsen. I enjoyed my 2 night stay there.

    The room was great. Had everything we needed to stay warm and cosy. Loved the traditional feel of the room and ryokan. The 2 private onsens were great, good self-booking system for these. The underground passage to the standing bar was unique and quirky. Parts of the building are historic but was also very clean. Toiletries provided; and slippers, yukata and geta wooden shoes available to borrow. The village itself, Shibu Onsen, was brilliant with the 9 public bath houses, and forest walk to the snow monkey bathing pool.

    It was very clean, quiet and comfortable. Especially the hot spring (onsen) was amazing. You can book it for 30 min (for free) to enjoy a bath in private. The staff member are VERY polite and kind! And wow, what a service.

    This place was a really good deal- the rooms were large and comfortable. The rooms are slightly out of date but I feel like that is reflected in the price. It is small inn and we had the hot springs to ourselves. There is a large indoor onsen for both women and men and a private outdoor spring that was available every time we wanted to use it. The owners were very friendly and kind. I wish we had planned a little more time to soak and enjoy.

    1. The location is in the middle of Shibu Onsen 2. Under 10 mins from Yudanaka Station by car 3. Easy access to public buses to Jigokudani and Shiga Kogen 4. The ryokan itself is very comfortable and big for a ryokan. It’s public bath is spacious and very clean. It also has several private Onsen rooms for booking. The private dining is excellent. The public areas has free computers and internet as well as complimentary hot beverages. There is even a souvenir corner with fresh seasonal fruits for purchase.

    The room was very spacious and comfortable. I loved the idea of having a private onsen so we could enjoy the hot spring anytime we want. We were late to property due to lost in translation during our travel and didn’t get to the train station until early evening. Hotel staff was very accommodating to pick us up at the station to the hotel and had dinner ready as soon as we arrived. Top notch service, food and cleanliness. Strongly recommended.

    The ryokan is very clean and tidy, there are two private onsens available to use, and the kaiseki was delicious. The owners are also very friendly and helpful, offered to pick us up from Yudanaka Station and drop us off at the Snow Monkey Park.
