Hakuba Onsen Ryokan Shirouma-so

It is a lovely, elegant ryokan with a beautiful onsen and very nice and helpful staff. The dinner was very delicious and absolutely worth the money. Unfortunately, we stayed only one night. If we were to come back to this part of Japan, we would definitely stay in this ryokan. It has our highest recommendation.

what a well ran hotel. this place tops 5 star resorts as far as service. They went above and beyond as innkeepers.

老闆及所有服務人員都提供了親切又完整的服務! 為一缺點是大眾湯池太小 房間裡也沒衛浴設備很不方便 還有地點離JR車站有一段不遠距離 不好逛街有點可惜

First and foremost the staff, led by a gentleman named Toshi, was incredible. So friendly and helpful. The food which was mostly traditional, was delicious! They offer discounted lift tickets and a discount at a nearby rental shop as well (which was also very friendly and helpful). They allow private access to their onsen, which is great for couples. The room was a great size, and we thoroughly enjoyed the ryokan experience.

The hotel was in a great location. Feels like a old Japanese hotel with the modern amenities. Breakfast was a great deal and dinner looked nice. Would go back again.

This is a once in a life time experience to stay at this beautiful Ryokan run by a local family for over 80 years. The traditional room we had was large and beautiful, with the view of the mountains. Staff members are all helpful and made us feel at home. Toshi the proprietor helped us with travel plans back to Tokyo. A driver from the hotel drove us to and from the train station so we could re-arrange our train trip with the station staff. We had breakfast at the intimate hotel restaurant. Both Japanese and western dishes are served. The quality of the food is excellent.

Excellent hotel, great location for village and slopes, very friendly and helpful staff. Authentic Japanese style excellent

We had a week at this great Ryokan. It is built in a traditional style, but everything was in immaculate condition. The position was great and within walking distance to the Happo ski field, and even closer to the bus station for transfers to the other ski fields and the bus back to Nagano. There are dozens of restaurants near bye, but if you don't want to wait, then book a day in advance. The onsen at the ryokan was small, but relaxing. We had breakfast there daily, and it was delicious. There was a coffee machine, juice and toast, a hot dish as well as rice and soup. The owner, Toshi, was very friendly, gave advice about where to ski and had good English. Ask him about the coupons which give you an included lunch with the ski lift passes at some resorts. He can also sell you discounted tickets to Happo. His mother did the cooking and came out from the kitchen to say good morning in Japanese.

Very comfortable stay and very good services from the staff! We stayed in a room with mountain view and the view was majestic and wonderful. When we were leaving, the hotel keeper even drove us to the train station and helped us arrange our train tickets before he left us. Very satisfied with every bit of this hotel!
