Guest Reviews
- Dietlind (10/5): Super Unterkunft. Können diese uneingeschränkt empfehlen - Tolle Urtümliche Übernachtung im Ryokan. Super Lage um die Schneeaffen zu besichtigen. Direkt an der Endstation helfen uns mit Supermarkt um die Ecke. Wir hatten Frühstück und Abendessen dazu gebucht. War super!
- Tomáš (8/5): - Just a foot step from Yudanaka station.
In the room great green tea.
- Rebecca (10/5): - Everything was heavenly. The staff were incredibly nice. The dinner was delicious. The private onsen was so relaxing. Best part of our stay in Japan by far. Dreaming of coming back here soon. Very quick bus ride to snow monkey park which is extraordinary
- Dionysios (9/5): -
- Tina (9/5): Sehr empfehlenswert :) - Es ist ein super super süßes traditionelles japanisches Ryokan. Es gab gratis Tee und Kaffee und einen onsen mit mehreren Becken. Das Wasser in den Onsen war derart heiß, dass es unmöglich war zu baden. Man musste Unmengen an kaltem Wasser hinzufügen um überhaupt mal die Füße reinhalten zu können.
- Cecelia (8/5): Staff were exceptional - Traditional onsen
- Ashley (10/5): -
- Kevin (10/5): -
- Westlye (10/5): -
- JEROME (7/5): - Le lieu Intérieur défraîchi
- Estelle23 (8/5): Dépaysant - Grande chambre avec petit gâteaux et thé chaque jour. Personnel très sympa. Nourriture incroyable, on a pris le dinner et le petit déjeuner. Les quantités sont énormes, les plats sont variés, ça vaut largement le prix élevé.
Les 3 onsens sont bien, il y a des horaires differentes pour les femmes et les hommes. Faites bien attention.
Le onsen extérieur est brûlant, je suis restée au bord. En février il a fait assez froid donc la différence de température était agréable.
Mais l'eau est beaucoup trop chaude, bon courage.
Le onsen privé est tout petit, vous entrez à 2 maximum.
Le parc des singes est à 30 min en bus.
Préparez vous à marcher 30 min de l'arrêt de bus à l'entrée du parc. présence de plaques de glaces et de boues, prévoyez des crampons si possible et une tenue que vous pouvez salire Très loin de Nagano, je ne pensais pas qu'il y aurait 40 min de train. De plus, le train passe seulement à des heures très précises. Il n'y en a pas beaucoup (si vous ne prenez pas les express payant). A un moment nous avons du attendre 2h une correspondance, ça nous a permis de découvrir les salles d'attente chauffées de la gare :)

- Rachel (10/5): Very lovely stay at a comfortable ryokan. - Beautiful property! Very traditional ryokan. Our room had tatami floors and was in immaculate condition. There were two public onsen and one private onsen; all were clean and comfortable. Great location, near the train station and very walkable to nearby convenience stores, restaurants, and sightseeing. Lovely hosts. Would recommend the dinner.

- Ryan (10/5): Lovely and accessible ryokan/onsen - Excellent location close to the train station, very kind and accommodating staff. Excellent hot spring baths with a variety of temperatures, and I enjoyed a very delicious meal my first night there. Very well maintained tatami mat room, nice comfortable futon and good air conditioner too! Nice tea set provided and refreshed daily! There's nothing to dislike here, excellent place to stay that I would certainly stay at again.
- Paola (10/5): Bel soggiorno in un luogo autentico - Antica casa Giapponese con onsen interno. Stanza bella e grande per gli standard giapponesi. Cena cara ma molto buona e abbondante e lo stesso per la colazione.consiglio l’esperienza Orari dell’onsen per le donne molto ridotto rispetto a quello degli uomini
- Francisco (10/5): Lovely Japanese ryokan - Very nice looking inside and out. The outdoor onsen had a lovely atmosphere. The rooms were very well maintained. Nothing

- ヤコブ コンラッド (8/5): - Nice onsen

- Marlene (10/5): - Amazing staff, amazing hotel. It is very traditional, cosy, clean and food and people are over the top. The onsen is the secret gem! I will come back for sure :)
Thanks so much for giving us as a present an amazing apple jam
- David (10/5): Great genuine Japan experience! - Onsen Price of dinner
- Alessia (10/5): - La struttura è molto accogliente e il personale gentilissimo. La cena servita di ottima qualità.
É stata un’esperienza unica. Le stanze molto grandi e caratteristiche.

- Nicola (10/5): -
- Elodie (10/5): - Die Unterkunft ist ein Traum ! Ein Ryokan mitten in Yudanaka mit eigenem Onsen. Ein privates und eines für Frauen und Männer mit jeweiligen Uhrzeiten.
Das Abendessen und Frühstück solltet ihr auf jeden Fall dazu buchen, es ist total lecker und traditionell. Ich konnte auch angeben, dass ich vegetarisch esse.
Nutzt den Ort zum runterkommen und entspannen.
- Silviia (10/5): - L'onsen era preciosissim tan el comu com el privat!!!! Acceptaven persones amb tatuatges, puntazo!
El personal super atent, proxim i amb molta bondat. De seguuuur que repetirem!!
Tenen parking gratuit!
- Jennifer (10/5): Amazing stay - Friendly staff.
Conveniently located very close to Yudanaka station.
Able to serve delicious vegan breakfast/dinner. They confirmed our dietary requirements when we arrived.
Clean spacious room with heater and thick blanket so we were warm even in the winter.
Private onsen available for couples/families to bathe together, as well as the male/female separated baths.
We were able to leave our luggage after check-out as we wanted to go to Snow Monkey Park.
Bonus: souvenir stamp available at reception!
- Mark (10/5): Seifuso was a beyond comfortable, welcoming, and ultimately relaxing experience - Seifuso is so conveniently located, well-apportioned, friendly, and provides an amazing onsen experience. We only stayed one night and wish we could have extended our visit. The private bath had no reservations (maybe these are only during the busy season) but we had no trouble spending some time there. The private kaiseki dinner immediately following that was the single best meal we have had in Japan thus far, exceeding our expectations. Everything from the rooms to the baths to the dining room and the beds themselves was so comfortable and clean. Every one of the staff made us feel welcome. I truly cannot wait to return. Not applicable, we had a wonderful stay all around.

- 石原 (10/5): 最高コスパの良宿 - 竜王スキーパークのナイターを20時まで滑走してのチェックインで21時過ぎ頃になっていたが、柔軟に対応してくれて非常に良かった。
あと、トイレが最新で感動した。
温泉も温度が高く非常に良かった。 温泉が24時間営業で非常に助かったが、男性のお風呂の入浴時間が22時以降露天風呂と家族風呂になるので、露天風呂を使用する際、冬季期間は体を洗う場所がかなり寒い。
ただ掛け湯して先にあったまることでいい感じになったのでそこだけ気合いを入れてく必要がある感じ。
- Digne (10/5): Very nice place - Our stay was amazing! The hotel is really cozy, the onsen baths are enjoyable (open-air and private), the rooms were nice and clean with comfortable tatami beds. I really recommend ordering breakfast and dinner (in advance) - they include a lot of various meals and are very delicious. The staff is very friendly and kind.

- qianru (10/5): -
- Bridget (9/5): - The onsen baths were fantastic- and the host was very kind and welcoming. The traditional room was beautiful too.

- Vivien (9/5): -
- Judith (10/5): - Lovely welcoming host. Very accommodating and helpful. We also had dinner there, it was incredible! Overabundance of delicious food!
- Martine (9/5): - Veldig sjarmerende sted. Det var godt plass på rommet og veldig rent. Veldig god middag i tradisjonelt og privat rom, men husk å booke den på forhånd. Kort vei til bussen som kan tas både til Monkey park og Shiga Kogen skianlegg. Ingenting
- Simon (9/5): -
- hasegawa (10/5): 楽しかった - ロケーションが良かった 飲食店が少ない
- Ana (7/5): - Nice private onsen, great location and comfortable futons. Nice staff It feels outdated (red carpets, chipped wooden frames / doors / windows, marked walls, marked tables..). Steep stairs to the top. No coffee in the room although there is a machine at reception. We ordered the special dinner and compared with other meals in Japan it was expensive and disappointing. The non privet onsen at the hotel was mainly available for men. Women were only allowed 3 hours per day
- Chad (10/5): - The private onsen as well as the other two public onsens. The delicious food. The large room with private toilet.
- Eric (9/5): - Close to Yamadera station. Nice private Onsen bath and public outdoor baths.
- YANNICK (9/5): -
- tomie (5/5): -
- Galvin (10/5): Very nice accommodation- great for nature lovers and snowboard and ski fanatics! - Very relaxing, low stress, and very different from anything I’ve ever stayed in. Onsen is amazing.
- Pierre (8/5): Très belle expérience, je recommande ! - L'établissement est super, les chambres sont superbes, très calme, on peut déposer les affaires quand on le souhaite La literie moins confortable que d'autres futons (ma compagne a plus apprécié que moi)
- Nikita (10/5): - Очень уютный рёкан, было по меркам рекана даже слишком комфортно - хозяева постелили очень мягкие матрасы и объемные одеяла, в номере была полноценная раковина и туалет (который приветствует тебя каждый раз открытием крышки :) В качестве халатов - симпатичные кимоно, в номере был горячий чай и обогреватель, так что даже с открытым окном мы не замерзли в ноябре.
3 онсена: 2 больших (открыты круглосуточно, но меняются по времени для мужчин и женщин) и 1 маленький (для 1-2 человек). Обязательно нужно пробовать тот, который ближе всех к ресепшену - он под открытым небом!
При отеле есть небольшой водоём с шикарными карпами!
Удобная локация: 5 минут от вокзала, при этом очень тихая улица. Автобус до Jigokudani Monkey Park идёт от вокзала примерно раз в полчаса - расписание лучше посмотреть сразу, как прибываете на вокзал. Рядом с вокзалом продуктовый магазин 7-Eleven
- Annika (10/5): - Great location, beautiful hotel. Very friendly staff. Thank you for an amazing stay, it was magical.
- Yishuang (10/5): Great relaxing onsen hotel! Would recommend to all - Super close to the Yudanaka Station, very convenient for travelers who leave early in the morning like I did. Great onsens (two public and one private), I had the luck to have all three to myself. Was extremely comfortable experience. Dinner was great, you get to eat in a very private manner in designated room. Hotel owner is super friendly even gave me two local apples which is lovely. If guests can know where to have hot water refill after 10pm that would be great especially in winter
- Alexandra (10/5): - We loved the different onsen options, especially the beautiful outdoor onsen. The breakfast was carefully and artfully prepared, and the space was cozy and comfortable. We really enjoyed our stay.
- Melanie (7/5): Good location but the place is quite dated. - Location and the nice outdoor onsen The accommodation is rather dated. It gives a not so clean impression . I didn’t realise I have to leave Message during booking to reserve for dinner. It was not clear during the booking. It only mentioned to pay for dinner at accommodation. So we plan to have dinner there but didn’t end up doing it.
- Rhea Mhel (6/5): -
- Watson (10/5): - Owner and his family are very helpful and started communicating with me as soon as I made the booking, advising me on car rental and transport options.
Ryokan is splendid! Spacious, warm and clean, and conveniently located. It is midway between Nagano city and Shiga Kogen, and I I drove up to Shiga Kogen everyday to ski instead of staying uphill.
Onsens in the Ryokan is fantastic and dinner was delicious! Worth every penny of our three nights stay!
- Watson (10/5): -
- Tony (10/5): -
- Cristina (9/5): Molto carino - Ottima camera personale gentile e accogliente
- Guest (10/5): Cozy, family owned and operated, traditional Ryokan in a sleepy winter town 💕 - It’s cozy and rustic. I felt welcomed and right at home when I got there. The rooms are huge and very traditional with tatami mats, futons, and sliding rice-paper doors/windows. The common area has a dedicated Go room where I played my first game of Go. The 3 onsens are 24-7 and one turns into a private onsen that you can use without needing a reservation. I loved the outdoor onsen most. It was super hot and relaxing especially in the cold, snowy weather. The family that owns it is adorable and sweet. They put attention to details that make the ryokan feel loved. For example they have fresh cut flowers in every room (where do they even get them in the winter??) and the koi fish look happy and healthy. They greet you everyday and are part of the charm. I got a fist bump from the elderly owner when I was checking out which I will cherish forever. The breakfast is a traditional Japanese spread. My husband and I thought it was healthy, delicious, and a great value. Highly recommend. Nothing - I loved it all. Some reviews might say it’s a little dated, but I think that added to the charm.
- Leonora (8/5): - Mi è piaciuto molto l'arredamento tradizionale, la camera super accogliente e silenziosa con tavolini e the a disposizione. La struttura ha tre vasche termali: una all'aperto (mooolto calda), una al chiuso con temperatura piacevole e una privata. Purtroppo non era specificata su booking la possibilità di cenare e fare colazione nella struttura, cosa che tutti gli altri ospiti sembravano però aver prenotato. Alla mia richiesta di disponibilità il gestore mi ha risposto di no in maniera molto sbrigativa. Ho inoltre prenotato questa struttura per la presenza di vasche termali interne, ma l'orario per le donne era molto più ridotto rispetto a quello per gli uomini e la vasca all'aperto era così calda da non poterci entrare.
- Stephen (10/5): - Very cozy and neat place to stay. Nothing
- Faissal (9/5): - Onsen formidable, les personnels fantastique Les prix des repas sont chères
- JIMMY (10/5): Une expérience unique - Absolument tout !
Bain très chaud, heureusement il y a un tuyau d'eau froid pour le grand bain extérieur
J'ai réservé tout seul. Le propriétaire m'a offert le petit déjeuner ! Le bain intérieur est beaucoup trop chaud 50°
Pour se nettoyer au savon, c'est compliqué.
Car j'étais obligé de prendre une bassine et faire un mix entre très froid et très chaud 🤣
Le propriétaire ne devrait pas parler anglais, c'est tout de suite beaucoup moins authentique...
- Macheda (10/5): - Tutto era perfetto, dall’accoglienza ai servizi. Onsen degli uomini e private erano belli e puliti, al pari delle camere. Offrono anche vesti tradizionali da utilizzare per girare tra le vasche e la struttura. L’host è stato talmente gentile da spedire all’hotel in cui avrei pernottato la notte successiva un quaderno a cui tenevo tanto, arrivato il giorno successivo senza che mi facesse pagare niente. L’esperienza in sé al paese di Yamanouchi la rifarei subito
- Shyaam (10/5): -
- Weihua (7/5): -
- Anastasiia (10/5): -
- GUNA (7/5): Good - It's typical family owned hotel with tatami floors and matrasses on the floor, for experience. Private Onsen available. Tea was provided on arrival and the heater worked well taking in account that temperatures were very low. N I asked for breakfast 10 days before arrival on booking app and never got an answer. When we arrived in hotel, the host refused to provide the breakfast for next morning. Outside onsen was too hot to be able to use it.
- Patrycja (10/5): -
- Brandon (10/5): - Everything about Yudanaka Seifuso was special. The room was incredibly spacious and very traditional just like we were looking for. The 3 onsens were incredible! They alternate times for genders and one can be made private. We got the dinner and breakfast and would highly recommend everyone try them both. The dinner was a traditional set meal that was one of the best meals we've ever had. The staff were all so kind and sweet. The amount of work they put into everything can be felt all around the property. If your looking for a ryokan experience it's hard to go wrong with yudanka Seifuso! The outdoor onsen was so hot that we could barely stay in for long but that's not their fault. Our western bodies just weren't used to it. It helped relieve the sore body from walking around all day.

- Anzhelika (10/5): Best place ever - Everything was truly amazing, we were in Japan 3 times, but this experience was the best!
The owners were so kind and caring, it could be seen in little details and overall.
The building was gorgeous, our room was traditional but at the same time very comfortable and had modern facilities.
Local private onsen is just another topic of conversation! Very cozy, beautiful and unique.
Dinner and breakfast were wonderful, delicious and served with soul.
We were able to take some pictures in this hotel and in the end the owner even gave us a souvenir!
I would recommend it from the bottom of my heart 💔

- Kevin (10/5): Experiencia Ryokan Onsen de 10 - Fueron súper amables con nosotros, nos trataron genial. Los onsen son de uso privado y están súper limpios, es perfecto. Muy bueno todo. Todo fue genial
- geraldine (10/5): - Beau Ryokan, tout proche de la gare avec des chambres très agréables, les Onsens ont également très agréable.
- JuliaRe123 (10/5): - Really great experience in a more traditional local Ryokan with Onsen. We were particularly happy to find this place as they were able to cater gluten free for me as a coeliac both for breakfast and for dinner. The food was traditional Japanese food and absolutely delicious with many smaller plates to combine. We loved the Onsen and our room was super spacious and clean. Sleeping on a futon and tatami mat takes some getting used to for our soft Western backs, but we slept well and really enjoyed the space. The location is conveniently close to the train station. We were able to walk everywhere, including to the bathing monkeys and to visit the neighbouring Onsen town and well. No complaints! We were super happy with our stay.
- Jasper en Moniek (8/5): -
- Giorgia (9/5): Bella esperienza - Il personale molto gentile e preparato ha potuto offrirci cena e colazione senza glutine, che è molto raro in Giappone. Posizione ottimale dalla stazione di Yudanaka. Stanza e bagno molto puliti e possibilità di usare l'onsen. La struttura sembra un po' datata
- Guy (7/5): - Goede locatie, aardig en behulpzaam personeel. De meeste faciliteiten zijn aanwezig. Gratis parkeerplaats. Goede locatie met veel restaurants in de buurt, om de hoek bij het trein- en busstation, er zit een supermarkt vlakbij. Het hotel lijkt wat gedateerd, het tapijt mag wel vervangen worden. Het oogt wat rommelig. De onsen was eigenlijk te heet om in te zitten. De bedden waren opgebruikt, het midden was dunner dan het voeteneind en de kussens erg klein.
- SERGIO (5/5): Decepção com o atendimento - Do passeio feito no Snow Monkey ,e a cidade de Yudanaka por ser uma localidade bem tranquila
Ryokan aceitável Do atendimento da pousada muito frio e
sem nenhuma cordialidade na recepção e nenhuma vontade em explicar de como fazer os passeios, e o mais interessante é que no Japão é praxe se despedir dos hospedes fazendo a reverência e o dito gerente nem sequer saiu para se despedir dizendo domoarigatogozaimashita
- Silvia (10/5): -
- Tamar (9/5): - מקום מסורתי עם ארוחה יפנית אותנטית חוויה ממש, ממליצים
- Lipták (10/5): - The staff and the private ones were excellent.
- Shay (9/5): - הבילוי באונסן היה נעים מאד ומומלץ. החדר מעוצב בצורה אוטנטית ומאד מרווח. נותן חוויה של אירוח יפני מסורתי. האונסן לנשים פחות אערקטיבי מהאונסן לגברים.
- Emma (10/5): - Lovely welcome, friendly staff, great facilities Nothing. It was all great
- Ernesto (9/5): -
