Since it was cheaper than other ryokans in the area, I didn’t expect much. But to my surprise, it offered full service—just like the more expensive ryokans I’ve stayed at before! They even provided a pickup service from the train station, which I forgot to book. Luckily, a Western couple sitting next to me on the train had reserved it. When I saw the “Hotel Housei” sign on the van outside the station, I hopped in! The hotel is a bit far from the station and involves walking up and down hills, so carrying luggage all the way would have been quite tough. I was really fortunate to catch that ride! Cherry blossoms were in full bloom along the river, just a few steps from the hotel—such a beautiful sight. The room wasn’t large, but it had enough space and was very comfortable. The elderly gentleman at the front desk seemed to speak multiple languages—he even knew some Thai! He was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The onsen was wonderful. The indoor bath was a bit too hot for me, but the outdoor bath was cooler and more relaxing. Breakfast was a buffet, which was decent. In conclusion, this place was absolutely worth it. Next time, if I go skiing in Shiga Kogen or bring someone to see the snow monkeys, I’ll definitely remember to book the pick-up and drop-off service in advance!

I slept really well. It felt like I was staying at a 4-star hotel for a low price. I don't know why, but it was very comfortable. When I told them I was cold, they brought me a heater and I slept warmly. There was a drink service, so we each had a glass of wine after visiting Zenkoji. Thank you.

The hotel isn't new, but it's very cozy and atmospheric. The kaiseki dinner was served all at once on the table — a lot of delicious dishes, all fresh and very tasty. The onsen is divided into men's and women's sections, each with an indoor and an outdoor bath. Bathing outside with snow around is truly magical! Overall, we really enjoyed it, especially the relaxation in the onsen and the delicious food.

The service is friendly and there is valet parking. The outdoor hot spring bath was of suitable temperature and the garden landscape was pleasant (with thick snow), but it was a pity that there was no free lotion. The breakfast buffet was varied, but unfortunately there was a problem with the oven.

I was satisfied with both the indoor and outdoor hot springs, but there was no air conditioning or heating in the changing room, so it was very cold. The air conditioning in the room I stayed in didn't work well, so it was cold and I caught a cold. The location is good, close to Yudanaka Onsen Station. The breakfast was reasonable for the price. I wanted to keep costs down so the price was good, but I won't be returning unless the heating works better.
