What a gem this place is!! This was our first time in Japan and wanted to go somewhere that maintained a lot of the local culture. This is that place. It feels brand new! Comfortable beds, nice private bathrooms and all the amenities you could want. We stayed in the double room on the lower level. There is a waterfall right outside the room where all night you can hear the soothing sounds of the babbling brook. It was some of the best sleep of my life with that white noise in the background. We really enjoyed the private bath/sauna every day after skiing. The main gondola is only an 8 minute walk from the room. The bar downstairs was incredible, we stopped to have a lemon sour every evening before dinner. Kazu,who manages the bar downstairs, was our favorite! He made our trip so lovely. We (as Americans) wanted coffee first thing in the morning, and when we told him that, he brought us a nespresso maker so we could have it in our room. How thoughtful and special! Also, Akari who cleans the rooms was so kind and went out of her way to speak to us and offer any assistance about places to eat, etc. This place is truly the most comfortable and amazing spot in Nozawa. I can’t say enough good things about it. Aesthetically pleasing, accommodating, and easy access to the ski resort. Absolutely amazing.

I've been traveling for a long time. After a storm of crappy Airbnbs and mediocre hotels this place was really great. Comfortable, quiet, spotlessly clean with great service and amenities. The staff was superb in accommodating any requests. The Onsen inside is also very nice. I'll be looking for an excuse to come here again.

The service as this Ryokan was 10/10, and was the most authentic one we stayed in during our 4 weeks in Japan. The staff were so lovely, and spoke great English. They showed us to our room, and gave us essentially a "room tour" whilst we drank complimentary tea. They gave us a map with nearby restaurants and ammenties noted on it. The private outdoor onsen was SO nice! You book a slot upon arrival, which you can access in the evening with 30 min slots. The onsen was large and the perfect contrast with the fresh cool air in the evening. Yukatas were provided for us as an option to wear around the hotel - both my partner and I are bigger than the average Japanese person (Wife is plus size, I am 6ft 2) and we both comfortably fit into the ones picked out for us. The only thing that threw us was that during breakfast, they cleared the beds from our room - had we known people would go in, we'd probably have neatened the room a bit haha! P.S don't skip the sushi restaurant a few doors down from the hotel. The sushi was EXQUISITE and they even have a phonetic Japanese to English page at the front so you can have a go at ordering properly with the chef.

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!

​This hotel is amazing! A true traditional Japanese experience. The staff is sweet (though they barely speak any English). We really enjoyed the breakfast and dinner as they made us a vegetarian version! The onsen is wonderful, both the public and the private one. We received Yukata, green tea, and excellent service. The location is great, free parking, and the view from the room is lovely.

Weekday breakfast and dinner kaiseki were excellent. The buffet meals on peak days (Saturday, Sunday morning) had a variety of options. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful in answering questions about the area. The club rooms were bigger than expected and included a kitchenette, which came in handy when we arrived late on our first night.

It is a really great ski-in ski-out hotel ! When we stayed the weather was getting warm but the snow was still okay to ski, not really melting. Staffs are nice, helpful and efficient. Food was good at Teppanyaki, French and Japanese. However the breakfast was so so.

We were in Yamanouchi in the spring.

We were in Yamanouchi in the spring. The cherry blossoms along the river we gorgeous and contrasted with the snow topped peaks of the mountains. The town was pretty chill, nice little cafes like the sun cafe and a cool beer cafe called the WDAY Cafe and Bat. The temple walk and the visit to the snow monkeys just gorgeous. To get to the snow monkeys is a tough walk up into the mountains- not for the faint hearted but you can drive up or take a bus up. It

So pretty and cozy.

So pretty and cozy. We didn't stay long but everyday we spent there was a joy. Everyone was so nice and helpful, there was so much good food and everything feels really personal and local. Make sure you have a plan B for food as the restaurants are small and availability depends on how busy they are - hours vary because of this. Bring cash and plan your meals and you should be good to go!

Not much to do besides onsen, skiing and the monkey park.

Not much to do besides onsen, skiing and the monkey park. Restaurants close based on the movement so opening times on google maps are not accurate. Some of them do not welcome tourists, they are open for locals and "sold out" for tourists. I'm writing this review on the peak of the Takichi government so things can change if you're it after some years. If you intend to ski, just get the skii resort, restaurants are better and closer to the skiing point. If you stay at the Shibu onsen, the buses for the skiing points are not frequent and are really expensive. If you're looking for the onsen, the public ones won't be better than the private hotel ones so book a ryokan with a good onsen. Finally, I do not really get the hype with Jigokudani Monkey Park. There's a lot of manmade structures and objects around so do not expect a "natural reserve" or "monkey sanctuary". Also, it's crowded.
