An authentic Ryokan experience
Guests will receive a warm welcome from Akira-San at the Yudanaka Onsen Yamazakiya, a Ryokan which has been run by the same family for three generations in the main street of the Shibu-Onsen village. The Ryokan is very well-managed and efficient, with two spa rooms and a restaurant on site. As a traditional Ryokan rooms are carpeted with spotless tatami throughout and toilet facilities are shared, but also spotless, and are separate from washing and onsen spa bathing rooms. Bedrooms equipped with floor-sleeping futons are large and in winter well heated with an electric stoves. The day starts early with a traditional healthy Japanese breakfast prepared by Akira-San and his family. Akira Yamazaki is a helpful and gracious host, who also makes excellent coffee. We highly recommend a stay at Yudanaka Onsen Yamazakiya for an authentic experience of traditional Japanese hospitality. We will certainly return! Shibu Onsen village is a picturesque street lined with older Ryokan, restaurants, and bars. The local restaurants have an excellent range of local food, but bring plenty of cash as it's mostly a cash-only town and we did not see an international ATM. A coin laundry is located a 10-minute walk away from the Ryokan towards the train station along the main riverside road. The prices are ¥500 for a small wash, ¥100 for 10 minutes of drying time, and ¥100 for soap. A public bus serves the town area and monkey park, but everything (except the monkey park) is within a fairly convenient walking distance. The Yudanaka train station is only 5 minutes away from Shibu Onsen by bus, costing ¥210. Alternatively, it takes 25 minutes to walk there. English information about local buses and trains is available from the helpful Yudanaka station staff. Wake up early to visit the snow monkeys before the arrival of out-of-town tour groups. The Snow Monkey Pass sold by Dentetsu Railway doesn’t offer great value unless you arrive very early on the first day of the two-day ticket.

Tutto fantastico
Il padrone del ryokan è una persona gentilissima, dolce e molto simpatica. La struttura è molto pulita e offre tutti i servizi possibili. Al check out pioveva ed il padrone del ryokan si è offerto di accompagnarci gratuitamente in stazione. Consiglio a tutti questo meraviglioso ryokan

Unique and memorable stay
Beautiful and well equipped Ryokan with very spacious rooms. Superb breakfast prepared by Yumi which includes unique flavors and local ingredients. There are two on-site Onsen that can be used anytime and you can access 2-3 other public onsen. Akira San is very generous and helpful and even offered to drop us to the station. Shared toilet but this was spotlessly clean and always available.

This was an incredible stay - a highlight of my trip. The host went above and beyond to make my stay comfortable - helped arrange taxis, even prepared a vegan breakfast for me, and the onsens were lovely. I'd highly recommend.
