We stayed at Kobayashi-san’s accommodation for three nights, and it was truly one of the best travel experiences we have ever had. うご八かやぶ㐂 is a very special place. When we arrived, it began to snow, and by the next morning the house was surrounded by nearly half a meter of fresh snow. From the moment you enter, you can see the immense care and effort Kobayashi-san has put into restoring this beautiful old Japanese house. The traditional interior, with sleeping on tatami mats and futons, creates an authentic and peaceful atmosphere. The attention to detail is visible everywhere. Despite the house’s long history, it offers all the comforts of modern life. A particular highlight after long days of skiing was the makiburo (wood-fired bath), with the fire carefully prepared by Kobayashi-san, providing a wonderfully hot and relaxing soak. Kobayashi-san went far beyond what we expected from a host—serving us delicious tea, making sure the traditional heaters and ovens were always fired, and constantly clearing the heavy snowfall so we could easily access the house and our car. Breakfast was an elaborate and memorable Japanese dining experience, prepared with great care and attention by Kobayashi-san and Abe-san. We also highly recommend the sake tasting, all produced from rice grown by Kobayashi-san himself. Overall, this was a truly one-of-a-kind stay, and we would love to return someday.

Very nice place with super friendly staff. The redesign of the old building is amazing—the mix of old and new styles creates a unique look and atmosphere.

Clean and neat. Everything in the house was in order.

Close to the station, comfortable rooms and facilities. Bar area was also a good vibe and food was tasty. Staff were super friendly! Made some good memories and friends! Thanks for the stay!!

The stuff was incredibly friendly and helpful, such warm people! We stayed for two nights and had a wonderful time. The restaurant is perfect for lunch and dinner, especially the beef bowl is amazing! We definitely recommend staying here!
