Nozaru Hostel

~ From Tokyo or Osaka: Take a train (Shinkansen) or bus (Willer,...) to Nagano City, from there get on the train heading to Yudanaka and stop at Yudanaka Station. ~ From there, take the bus for Kanbayashi or Shigakogen from Yudanaka station (Nagano dentetsu line) and get off at Shibuwagobashi bus stop (about 7min). The bus stop is located in front of the bridge (Shibuwagobashi) along the Yokoyu river. The hostel is just 2 minutes walk away at this point. Walk up the stream a little, take the first left (just opposite to the bridge), go straight and turn right at the second corner, from there walk straight up and you will see Nozaru hostel (four-storied building: the old name is Komatsuya-ryokan) just before the Onsen temple.

CHEAPEST IN TOWN. NICE HOOD. BIG ROOMS. ONSEN INCLUDED. "CLOSE" TO THE MONKEYS.

We booked Nozaru Hostel because it was the cheapest (around 40€) in the area AND one of the closest stays to the Snow Monkeys. Which doesn't mean next door. You still either need to walk 45 mins or take a bus and walk 25 mins to reach the entrance of the park. The bus (no.1) ride from the station to Nozaru Hostel takes about 7 minutes and leaves once or twice an hour. You get off at Shibuwagobashi Station and walk 4 mins to the hostel. It is quite a big building with 4 or 5 floors. The overall impression is a bit worn down and with some more dedication you could create a really nice hostel. They have an onsen on the ground floor which is used for the shower as well though it was not very busy. Our room was in the 4th floor and we had a nice view. Unfortunately you couldn't open the windows - they were taped. What we really didn't enjoy so much was the cold temperatures inside the room - especially when you have to turn the heater on every 5 minutes. The Japanese style sleep on the futon was fine though - covered in duvets. And one very positive aspect: It was spacious! Enough space for luggage and chill out sessions on the matress. The receptionist lady who seemed to be the owner spoke very good English and was helpful with everything we needed. It is just a pity that they don't put more effort into this place as it is perfectly located in the onsen street. We are not picky but in this case it is hard to rate "very good" or "excellent".

Azegamikan

Totally recommend

Reviewed By leob258

This ryokan style hotel has been recently refurbished. Its warm, comfortable and the staff are super friendly. You have ti walk up the mountain a bit to get to it, but it such a practical location to stay at, you are closer to the yu road. The ogawa open air hot spring is near by, restaurants close. Bars down the hill a bit and free parking. Id recommend the room 203, one of the larger rooms, with tv, toilet ,plenty of room up to 6 or 7 people to sleep on mattresses. And the view is spectacular. This hotel does have drying room for gear, and plenty of room to leave gear.restaurant is excellent for dinner and breakfast. The hotel is on 3 or 4 floors, with no lift. Staff are top

Nanauraso

Not a good experience!

Reviewed By Tripswayer

Location : 24km from Ryotsu Ferry Terminal, can only be accessible by car, or indirect bus (1 transfer) and bus only runs every 2 hour, if you miss once, a.k.a you miss a morning. In my case i cycled there with overnight bicycle rental ( 2000yen) since its too far to return in 1 day. Then its pretty much 15-30 km away from attraction. It has seaview , from afar, it is Not seaside, it is on the hill looking down to a highway and the sea. Facilities and cleaness: good, japanese standard Service: the owner is ok, but she does not speak english much, when i emailed snd ask ger how to go from ferry terminal to the hotel, she ask me to ask others,never mentioned the complications of the bus service there. And surprisingly enough, her follow-up emailS were to convince me to order dinner and breakfast there, dinner at 2000 yen, quite expensive compared to the price there. i didnt explore the island since i only planned gor 1 night stay and did not have appropriate trabsport to go around.

Minshuku Miyama

wonderful minshuku run by great couple

Reviewed By fkoshido

I and my husband stayed for 3 days here to visit snow monkey park. This hotel ( minshuku ) is run by great couple . They are helpful to pick us up at yudanaka station and drop us near monkey park. Although Nagano in February was quite cold having snow , the room was very warm and cozy. Because of their hospitality and kindness we had such a wonderful time.

We booked this place in hope for some early snow fall which didn’t happen but our disappointment was short lived when we were welcomed by our host. We have been traveling around the world for 3 months now and the hospitality we received here is going to be hard to beat! Rooms are perfect for the Japanese style and everything you need .

Himecho@Yasushi

Fabulous newly renovated property

Reviewed By tracytP6747JP

Our group of three families with eight teenagers between us had a fantastic four nights at Himecho. This house has been renovated beautifully and is both stylish and comfortable. The beds were amazing! It is located in a very convenient part of the village just below one of the ski lifts. The bar next door, which is actually part of the same building, was a great place for a drink after skiing. The two hosts were friendly and knowledgeable. We would love to return one day.

Umeya Annex

A room with a view on the Fuji !

Reviewed By jcbolay

A small guest house headed by a friendly owner who will come for you at the railway station and bring you home, a little bit far of the center of the city. For 70 euros you will have a comfortable room with 2 prepared futons, a small balcony and a wonderful view on the Fuji. Shower and restroom are shared among 3-4 rooms and a typical Japanese breakfast is included. A + is free bikes for the customers and a - is the kitschy deco of the room. A nice opportunity in this place, and an owner who will advise you warmly on what to do in the region. (Excellent support at the tourist office in the station)

便利なホテル

Reviewed By yusta2016

部屋は、和室で布団です。 トイレもついていますし、お風呂は、部屋にもありますが、1階に浴場があり、ゆっくり入ることが出来ます。 食事は、朝食付だと6階のレストランで食べられます。眺望もなかなかいいです。 夕食は、近隣に居酒屋さんが、結構あるので、状況に応じて選べると思います。

富士山スポットの大石公園から徒歩1分!

Reviewed By shota1815

富士山と河口湖の絶景スポットで有名な大石公園から徒歩1分と近いため、早朝6:30に起きても、逆さ富士を眺めることができました。初めは駅から遠いと感じましたが、レッドラインのバス停やハナテラスからも近いため、ゆっくりするには最高のロケーションだと思います! また、大スクリーンでサッカーの試合を見れて感動しました。 スタッフもフレンドリーで、おすすめの観光スポットなどを教えて頂きました。色々なイベントも開催してるそうなので、機会があればまた泊まりに来たいです。
