Best Hotels in Nakano

The morning buffet was delicious and I was very satisfied! I was also able to easily enjoy the orange juice and self-service coffee at the front desk, which was great. I was able to start my day feeling refreshed.

Hotel route in central Nakno this was an awesome place to stay we used this hotel as our base for the week, with several ski resorts to choose from, within 30 minutes or less drive away, the staff were friendly and helpful, willing to go the extra mile to ensure that your stay is a memorable one, rooms are standard size, with mod-cons split system air/heating USB ports for charging up electronics etc...

No issues ba ourr check-in, where they couldn't find our booking made month earlier via trip. com and kept us waiting in the foyer for 90 mins

This location is also good for driving out to the various ski resort in Nagano

The welcome drink, apple juice, was delicious. The self-service coffee was also delicious, thanks to Doutor. Breakfast was also very good.

Great no frill hotel with clean and functional room for a comfortable night. The location is good if you are driving and many restaurants and supermarkets are all within 10 drive away

As like everywhere else in Japan, the people are incredibly nice

It was a great experience. Will return one day

The rooms are all on the B1 floor. The corridor is dark and a bit depressing. Fortunately, each room has a window and a view of the courtyard. It may be because of the hillside. The hot spring bathroom is small and good.

Really scenic, beautiful surroundings. Excellent food.

We were welcomed with kindness and hospitality. They brought our luggage to the room, provided us with yukatas and offered amazing traditional food. The private baths were the highlight and we will miss them greatly

Highly Recommended for a Traditional Japanese Stay Thoroughly enjoyed my stay here. It was my first experience at a ryokan. Mainly chose this place because it is reasonably priced with private onsen and shower

Honestly the cold milk really made my day!! 🥰 Air conditioning was very effective considering the size of the room and the breakfast was too much to finish and offered a taste of everything Lastly you are on top of the onsens as soon as you step out and monkey park is a 25 minute walk north but talk with the Owner, she has a link to the Monkey security cameras so can tell you ahead of time if theres...

The Yumoto Ryokan is great for a stop to relax a bit. One gets access to the 9 Onsen in the village and can take a dip in every one, or take a small hike to see the Japanese macaques that like to relax in an Onsen

Best part is the private onsen. Pick up the key for private onsen from reception if it’s there and use for up to 30 mins at a time. Go back again as much as you like

Worth every penny, beside the awesome amenities I was led to expect from description, the staff was also extremely welcoming and went the extra mile - the proprietess even drove us to the train station in the morning.

We had a wonderful stay and truly enjoyed every moment. The hostess is incredibly welcoming and a genuinely lovely person — she even kindly drove us to the train station, which we deeply appreciated

Generally, the provided food was delicious and rooms where clean, spacious and quite the experience, with Tatami floors. One really felt like transported back in time and as a traveler in the past

Their outdoor onsen is beautiful during snow. But the place is old but well maintained. And for me, unlike other reviews, nobody offered me transport to the monkey park, they said no staff

The hosts were extremely polite and welcoming. They explained all the house rules in detail and kindly recommended great places to eat nearby

The place was spotless, warm, and very comfortable for an overnight stay with my husband and our two kids. We would definitely come back

This place was a very cute, homely, with a family owned ryokan vibe. We had a nice spacious room, the biggest we had in our whole trip to Japan, with beautiful views of the surrounding mountains

We would have loved to stay longer, but we had to return to Tokyo right away to catch our flight

The staff (owner?) was friendly and spoke to us in English. They had a place ready for our luggage before check in so we could go to the Snow Monkey Park first. We enjoyed our traditional stay

The breakfast was also very good, and the room was sizeable. This was our favourite stay in Japan

Tawaraya is a very nice Ryokan and Onsen in the small town of Yudanaka. While not very distinctive from the outside, the interior is very quaint

There are both a male and female only indoor onsen where you can shower and bathe from 1600 - 0900 daily. In addition there is a beautiful outdoor onsen surrounded by rocks and a Japanese garden

The temperature of the onsen is perfect. Hot enough to be comfortable, but not too hot so you can't stay in! There are also slightly cooler sections of the pool or areas to sit partly out of the water if desired

Go down the hill to the SE 1 block, turn right at the first traffic light at the bottom and then 2 blocks to find it on the right. There is the name in English on the door. The staff also speak English

, plus an additional hot-pot you use to cook an additional dish provided. Very yummy and filling (and I'm not usually a fan of Japanese breakfasts - but each one we had was different and satisfying)

Room was good size and bed was comfortable. Hotel is close to Yudanaka station and shops. Enjoyed my stay.

Stayed while visiting the snow monkeys.  The location was ideal and the food was very good.

The hotel was good, check in and out was very convenient. There are snacks in the lobby, and drinks are free. Also all supplies very complete skin care products are also provided free of charge in the lobby

While I was there, only one member of staff was manning the front desk as well undertaking other responsibilities around the hotel, but a phone was left at the front desk so you could call when you needed assistance

The accommodations were clean and comfortable and enjoyed the retro-feel. The free drinks and snacks in the lounge area were a nice touch and I loved the outdoor Onsen

Only one night stay but can’t complain and was able to store my bags there after check out while I went to the snow monkeys which was a great bonus.

The facilities are a bit old, and the public bath's hygiene was just so-so. The location is good, but dinner was also mediocre.

The room was very large and comfortable. What made the place great was the ping pong table, mini pool table. Once you understand the onsen process it is pretty easy. Note: restaurant is by reservation only

We really enjoyed the ryokan; we stayed for one night. The dinner buffet was particularly great, with crabs, fish, hot pot, beer, and sake. Breakfast was also quite good

It's also possible to extend your stay for 1000 yen per hour, which is super convenient when traveling with a child. The hotel corridors aren't perfectly clean due to age, but the room itself is clean and pleasant

There's an onsen, and we booked a 30-minute slot and went right away. I didn't get a chance to visit the public baths

Dinner snow crab dinner is worth the price. Also cash only needed do the hotel tax due at arrival

Het beste verblijf tijdens onze hele reis in japan! The best location we stayed during our whole trip in japan! Run by a lovely couple that also have their own shop

They make you feel like you're at home, and are welcome. They know the best places for you to visit during your stay and bring a energy like no other

As I dont review much, me and my girlfriend would like to thank this place to show the best side of japan!

Thank you so much Seongmi and Yoshi for having us and letting us feel so welcomed. This hotel is definitely my recommendation for Yudanaka. The two owners are two amazing person and created a very familiar atmosphere

Yoshi san and Seongmi san are the most helpful and friendly hosts you can wish for. Yoshi san is born and raised in the region and literally knows every corner and can tell you where to go (and where to avoid)

You can tell the owners love and care for the hotel. It is also nice and warm and perfect location to get the bus and visit the snow monkeys. I would recommend it to everyone as it's also a good price for the area

The WiFi was good enough for a Microsoft teams call with zero lag whatsoever. I had a wonderful stay here and if I am back in the area I will stay again

Very good ryokan, friendly owner, near to Snow monkey park, good view

Great onsen and dinner The room shows some age but it’s comfortable. The public onsen is very good with an indoor pool and an outdoor one for both men’s and women’s spas. We have the half board option with our room

The onsen was extremely hot and had an absolutely gorgeous view. The older couple that runs it were incredibly kind and hospitable to me, including a shuttle to the Monkeg Park and Yamanaka Station free of charge

They serve our dinners in a private room. The food was great and staff were friendly. Breakfast was served buffet style and has a good variety of food. They also offer rides to Snow Monkey park and the train station

I was later than their last check in and they accommodated me and even made a multi course traditional Japanese meal at 9pm, the food for breakfast and dinner was delicious

The baths in the ryokan are beautiful and so nice! Would recommend and would come back!

Exactly what you would expect. Tatami mat rooms with shoji doors. Dimly lit halls with wood floors, steep staircases and dusty old mementos on display. The halls and any room without a hearer were incredibly cold

Excellent Ryokan located in the center of Shibu Onsen, right at the bus stop. The hotel is very typical and traditional, run by the Takimoto family. The private Onsen are excellent and very well maintained

Has to keep the heater on in our room all night it was so cold and zero insulation—again exactly what is expected in a place like this

Everything perfect, top welcome and services! We went during the winter with snow and we did not suffer from the cold inside the rooms. Very good and very rich dinner!

Amazing! We had a wonderful time here and I wish we could have stayed one more night. The service is excellent and the food is as well

All of them are awesome and there is no need to reserve, we tried all 6 of them + the 9 public baths in Shibu Onsen nearby. The meals are very good, great service and hospitality

We stayed here with my parents. So many variety of Onsens. Very good service. Staffs are very nice. Building itself is old, but overall we had very good experience. Thank you very much.

We stayed for 2 nights at a room without bath. When we arrived we were a bit concerned because it looks old, but after settling in we found this ryokan to be excellent

There are many baths to choose from here, so you have lots of options, but I highly recommend getting a room with a private bath so you can hop in and out as much as you like! The food was excellent traditional Japanese style and they give you so many different dishes to choose from it can be a bit overwhelming, but everything is delicious

1 of the evening there was a geiko performing show, we had such a good quality time

food was good and the experience was perfect

When a taxi booking to Shiga Kogen fell through due to heavy snow, the owner personally drove me there, which I deeply appreciated. He also printed out the bus schedule and made sure I knew exactly how to get back

Awesome location for visiting Jigokudani Park (snow monkeys in hot springs) but otherwise isolated. The room was very spacious, especially considering i was a solo traveler

Finally, while this is close to shibu onsen, it is not part of it and shibu onsen is about a 30 min walk away and you don't have access to the public baths there (to do the 9 bath crawl)

The private onsen attached to the room was unexpected and must appreciated. The food was the highlight of my 2 night stay

Also the building is pretty old with commensurate insulation so i was pretty cold all the time except for when i was cozy in my futon or in the onsen (and for about 30 mins after)

I'd been to other food forward ryokans elsewhere before and while they were fancier, the food at Jinpyokaku Honten was better or maybe just more suited to my tastes

The Japanese Royal family comes here! Spouse made excellent choice to book this gem of a place for our Snow Monkey visit (5min walk to START of 30min trail to monkey park)

The hotel room was much bigger than expected. The service was excellent and the Japanese breakfast was most tasty

Perfect place to stay! Location is really good, it’s easy close to the snow monkey park and bus station. Hotel is beautiful and authentic. Breakfast and dinner were amazing

The private onsen wasn't as good as the public bath! Also, there was no shuttle to Yu no Kuni after 12 PM

The facilities are a bit dated, but considering I've stayed here multiple times across two generations, it maintains a certain standard. Plus, there's a fantastic indoor heated pool. I've stayed here twice already

Loved my stay in this japanese style hotel: traditional room with a great view to the mountains, very stylish public spaces, enormous dinner and breakfast. You can walk right from the hotel to the monkey park.

It was just wonderful! Gorgeous place, gorgeous ryokan and such a good location. We were lucky, there were no people in the onsen and it was basically a private bath

Couldnt say enough good things about this location, and still super grateful to the amazing Aki

We bumped into her and she went above and beyond to help us out, at a great and fair price. The in house onsens are also quite nice, peaceful and quiet, the 3 times we went we were the only guests using it

My family and I had a fantastic stay here, my 3 year old daughter Aurora especially loved it. The hospitality of the host was honestly unreal, and a highlight of our whole 4 week trip to Japan

Absolutely exceptional!…it’s a hidden gem,it’s super 70’s classy chalet style and I really felt like I was the only person there..walking distance to the monkey park …full marks!.

Aki was a total rockstar and helped us out so much. We didn't have a place to stay for the night as everything booked out while we were hiking
