The room is clean, simple, refreshing and quiet. The big glass window faces the mountain and has a good view.
The size is not too small and the design is reasonable.
But there is no table or chair, and there is no space.
Facilities: There is nothing except a place to take a bath. There is not even a place to sit in the lobby. There is a souvenir shop. But it does not sell any fresh fruits or food. The hotel is basically a place to sleep and eat.
Buffet: There are not many or few kinds of breakfast. It is OK. Dinner is basically the same dish every other day. I can't stand it after eating it for 3 days.
The biggest advantage of the hotel is that it is close to the Shao'e Mountain Ski Resort. The ski lift is right at the door.
Close proximity to historic district and major attractions, it is an ideal location for a vacation getaway in an authentic Onsen Ryokan. The ryokan has 4 exclusive natural hot-spring baths which may be used by guests at all times, and 5 rentable private baths. Approximately 10 minutes by Nagaden bus from Nagano Electric Railway Yudanaka Station. 2 minutes walk from bus stop "Shibu Onsen" or "Wagobashi"
*Shuttle service available from Yudanaka Station (according to train arrival time between 15:17 and 18:05)
There is no shuttle service to the hotel. Please make sure to check the operating hours of the transportation you will be using in advance and enjoy your trip with plenty of time to spare.

The most famous hot spring hotel in Shibu Onsen Street, the Saigetsu-ro where we stayed is a registered tangible cultural property of the country. Once again, we got to experience the feeling of living in a cultural relic! Each of the 9 carefully selected wooden rooms in the Zeyue Building is different and has its own characteristics. The rooms are divided into several areas and are very spacious and comfortable. The dinner was super rich, and I couldn’t finish it even though I was full... The standard dinner was chicken hotpot, and we contacted the hotel in advance to upgrade to beef hotpot. If you want to upgrade your dinner, you must contact the hotel in advance, it will be too late to change it on the day!

Small and cute place to be. Once you get to the train station or bus stop, give them a call and they will come pick you up. You can walk if you want, but it does go uphill a little bit if you have suitcase with you. Staff is really nice and accommodating. We did have one of our friends ending up pregnant on the trip after we had booked the trip and she was not able to eat many of the foods. They were really nice and worked with what she could eat and even gave her a little omamori (like a charm) for her healthy and safe pregnancy and birth. Would recommend to others. The individual onsen in each room is wonderful and if you want to have more people gather together, get the bigger rooms. Mt. Fuji is visible but understand that it depends on time of day and season. Due to the smaller space, there is only one area to gather downstairs, which is also where you check in. Not a big deal for us, but for those who wants like a whole area to walk around in the hotel, then may want to look at those bigger hotels.

The hotel's room is not very large, probably because it is the relationship of the ski hotel, so what equipment, can only say that. However, the back door of the hotel is directly a ski lift, so it is very convenient

Likes the breakfast, room was huge. Great if you’re skiing or snowboarding at Ryu.
However, hotel does not have parking, requires snowmobile to shuttle up and down or sometimes climb the hill if the shuttle is not available.
Overall, I would visit again only if I’m skiing there.

GGuest User2024.12.29
I saw many Japanese elderly couples, girlfriends, and many students coming here to play. The hotel is very old, the air conditioner squeaks, there are some mosquitoes, and the refrigerator is sometimes good and sometimes bad. It was normal on the first day, but on the second day, all the fruits we bought were frozen into hard ice. But the hygiene is OK. You can see that they are trying their best to maintain it. In addition to the public hot springs, there are two private hot springs, Xing and Yue, which can be reserved by guests. There is free oden in the rest area every afternoon, which is very heartwarming. The breakfast is also good and very rich. In addition, Nagano and Shijiazhuang are friendly cities. Table tennis is very popular here, and there are table tennis balls in the lounge. The hotel is very close to Yudanaka Station, a two-minute walk, and is generally recommended.

The hotel is old and the food is of average quality. For skiers, the traffic is not particularly convenient, but it is better than the lotus pond or the ichinose. . However, the hotel service is very good, especially the front desk manager Zen, very warm, and English is very good, it is called the hotel's smashing.

Stayed in Japanese style room. Plenty big enough for three. Pillows were rock hard but futons comfy. No english channels on tv.
Shared bath house which was great. Stayed start April so most restaurant and shops shut, very little choice.
Had buffet breakfast at hotel which had good variety . would recommend hotel if you can pick up a deal.
straight across the road from inchiose skifield but very limited lifts open and actually walked about 15 minutes down the road to other fields with a lot more lifts running. As spring we were able to catch chairlift for free to then ski down to gondola to buy lift tickets. Good skiing on Olympic courses.

This was my first time staying in this area, but the landlady was very polite and explained everything in detail, which was very helpful.
The indoor and outdoor baths were very comfortable, and it was a very satisfying hot spring trip.
Dinner and breakfast were also delicious, and I was very satisfied.
The location (cobblestone road) was attractive, as it allowed me to experience the atmosphere of a hot spring town. There are nine outdoor baths, and I regret that I was unable to visit them all.

GGuest UserLocated just within 3min from Yudanaka station, Raki Onsenryokan is run by a Chinese family. As a quiet town on its own, no one was tending to the reception when I arrived, after ringing the bell, a lady came down to help with the check in - very straightforward. I believe the family stays in the same building as they said if we ever needed anything, we could just ring the bell at the reception. Obviously I had booked a room too big for a solo traveller as this was the only room left as ”non-smoking”. Toilet and sink are at two different parts of the room which was a little inconvenient. Ryokan offers free drive (15min) TO snow monkey park, but not return, so please cater at least 35min to walk from park exit to the bus stop. Ryokan also provided a hearty breakfast, overall for the price paid it was a decent stay!
GGuest UserWe came to Shiga Plateau for skiing, we have been to Yudanaka four times, and we have lived in 8 different homestays. Daimaru House is the best one:
A The boss's English is good, there is no problem with communication (the boss is not good);
B There is a bathroom in the room, which is very convenient (most of the bathrooms in the homestay are shared and inconvenient)
C In the hot spring town, eating is very convenient;
D Going out is the station, it is convenient to go skiing on the mountain;
E Indoor and outdoor hot springs are large and powerful;
F The boss is very nice and provides pick-up/send-off/go to snow monkey park service (this is very important in Tangtianzhong, some homestays do not provide it)
In a word, come to Shiga Plateau skiing, choose Daimaru House is right!
GGuest UserBecause we wanted to watch the fireworks festival and experience the hot springs, we booked a room here. We were greeted by a grandfather. It was a little late and raining when we arrived at Yudanaka. The grandfather came to pick us up. It was very comfortable to soak in the hot springs. Yudanaka should not be the peak tourist season. Maybe we arrived too late and left too early. The road was very deserted and there were not many people.
MMorumoyouruI am very satisfied with the room I booked this time. It is very cost-effective, including buffet breakfast and special dinner. The hotel can pick up and drop off the monkey park and the station. I originally thought it was far from the hot spring, but it is very convenient whether walking or taking the bus. It has an outdoor hot spring pool and a specialty store in the lobby. The boss is very good and lent me a camera charging cable. The only drawback is that the pillow is a bit hard, maybe I am not used to it.
Bbb travelsThis is an older, but well renovated hotel near the slopes. It’s an all-in-one hotel too, with a convenience / souvenir store and a massive onsen (with sauna). We enjoyed our stay here; the meals were also pretty good. The old-fashioned steam radiator helped to keep the moisture in the room too, which we appreciated. Thank you for taking care of us!
BBlooming SpringA hidden gem - definitely worth recommending.
The location is close to station, and walking distance to convenient store.
Staff are very nice and friendly, the food is also delicious. We had two dinners at the hotel; one night sukiyaki and another night shabu shabu. Nutritious, fresh and tasty.
Thank you so much for the stay- we love it!
TTsaiGreat location with easy access to Ichinose Family and Diamond resorts (short walk). The winter bus stops just across the street (coming from Nagano). The bus going back requires a little more walk (~100m) from hotel. Overall, very pleased with our stay.
GGuest UserExcellent location next to ski lift at Sun Valley. 3 mins walk to the local bus station with buses going to Nagano Station direct (express service) or Yudanaka station.
Room and bath room (2 basins and 1 sink) are spacious - we had 3 futons and 2 single beds for our family of 5. They may be a little dated but very clean. Room has a view to outside snowy forest during our time.
Highlights of our stay:
Half board meals - authentic Japanese! Big portions and lots of pretty and dishes served! Free coffee everyday in late afternoon.
Service was impeccable - the front desk lady (very friendly and excellent service disposition) , and the elderly folks who served in the restaurant - thumbs up!
GGuest UserWe had a lovely experience at biwaike Hotel. It's a ski in and out and very conveniently located near the sun valley bus stop which helps if you are travelling with luggages. Check in was straight forward. Mr Tokutake who runs the small hotel was very gracious allowing us to get our ski equipment quickly. Passes were easy to get depending on the number of days you plan to ski and the area you want to ski in. Dinner and breakfast were delicious and after a long day skiing, it was wonderful to soak in the onsen that apparently is filled with natural spring water. The room itself is adequate, very big, the futons were comfortable enough. The room was well heated and there are vending machines downstairs to get drinks as well as a small convenience store to get instant noodles, ice cream and snacks.
So happy with my experience there :) the team was gracious, hospitable and we couldn't have asked for anything more.
TTanin PhannithiEasy to go to Giant Ski Area because there is a slope to ski area directly. But I don't recommend for beginner to go ski area from this slope. And you can't go back to the hotel from this way, you have to go back by gondola to Yamanoeki and walk 300m. Too far if you walk with skies or snowboard.
Yukata is not free of charge, you have to pay 300 yens for rent. There is a shower room in your room but you can't use it because there is ONLY cold water(hot water doesn't work).
Some breakfast menu is not enough for customers. But dinner is ok.
