Lovely old fashioned Ryokan. Traditional style rooms and public areas. The staff were great and went out of their way to communicate in English, but also respected our Japanese speaking son.
The onsens were an unusual and interesting experience.
The dinner and breakfast were the highlights of our stay. The food was superb and presented in a stunning way, including a personalised menu card.
Winter closure of the open-air baths "Shirakaba-no-yu" (Late December - 28 February) Due to the accumulation of snow, the open-air bath will be closed during the winter.

The food was exceptional and there was a lot of it. We liked having a choice of yukata to wear during the stay. The room was a beautiful Japanese room. It was very spacious with excellent facilities. The staff were very helpful. It had a lovely onsen (including an outside one). We loved the communal area with massage chairs and a lovely view. Overall, we had a wonderful stay here and would highly recommend the hotel.

The hotel was lovely and staff were excellent. Great location and an easy walk to the ski field and village for dinner. I stayed in a traditional Japanese room and the view of the village was beautiful. The staff were always helpful and very friendly. Highly recommend.

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.

A good spot in the village close enough to the lifts
This is a lovely old Ryokan at the end of the onsen street. It's accessible by short walk to the ski resort and has its own onsen as well as having a traditional onsen just out side the front entrance.
Very beautiful traditional ryokan, the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. Had a blast snowboarding for the first time and enjoyed the onsen after a whole day out in the cold. Breakfast and dinner are delicious and very large portions.
Everything is really nice, it is an old style ryokan and very good hot spring. Room is spacious with view. Was able to use the washing machine for free!
Located on the main hot spring street , walkable to the Ropeway. Lots of restaurants nearby however some required advance booking. The hosts are very lovely and nice. If you want to experience authentic ryokan this will be the place to go
Breakfast is good and staff at breakfast room is nice.
Size of the room is quite large for Japan standards. The room is well equipped, storage is great.
Outdoor onsen is nice, but is it 100m away from the hotel, not a big deal. But just keep that in mind.
Close to the property. Love the private onsen, the host even provides the local milk to the customer to enjoy after soaking in the hot spring. Also the shuttle bus service is pretty handy.
Yoshidaya Ryokan is a beautifully presented traditional ryokan. Its right in the middle of the old part of Zao Onsen surrounded by historic buildings.
This is a traditional Ryokan so be prepared to walk up stairs and use shared facilities.
The rooms are very warm and comfortable and the Ryokan facilities are well presented and clean.
The Hot Spring bath was wonderful!
I will be staying at Yoshidaya again!
Good location, just 5 mins walk from the Yamako Bus terminal. The ryokan's owner is very friendly to the guest. He can speak a little English too.
They also serve some tasty Japanese breakfast and dinner. They offer free tickets for entry to the 3 public hot springs nearby. I will be staying at Takasagoya again the next time I am here to see the snow monsters.
Cozy Ryokan with very friendly owner, I could keep my baggage in the lobby after checking out. There is a heater in the room. The hot spring bath was superb.
