Yudanaka Onsen Yamazakiya

Yamanouchi (Near Takayama)

Situated 3 km from Jigokudani Monkey Park, Yudanaka Onsen Yamazakiya offers accommodation in Yamanouchi with access to a hot spring bath.

Yudanaka Onsen Yamazakiya was an astounding experience for me. The Ryokan is located in a pictureske street with many small shops and restaurants. The rooms are great, featuring a super nice kotatsu, a futon, a bed and a separate room for enjoying the view and making/drinking tea. The room also has a refrigerator which is great. Also, Akira-san can heat your Conbini food in a microwave if you ask him. The two onsen facilities the ryokan features are both great, being private and having the option to adjust water temperature by adding cool water. Lastly, there is a free drinking water station in the lobby. If you are planning on visiting the Jigokudani Yaen Koen Snow Monkey Park, this ryokan is a great option since Akira (or his mother) will gladly take you right to the entrance of the park, with no additional fee within ten minutes. Which brings me to my favourite part of this ryokan: Akira, his mother and all of the lovely staff. Akira-san speaks really good English so check-in and basic questions about onsen, food, attractions and anything else are no problem at all. For more complicated stuff he will just use a translator app. If every person in the world would be a just a little bit more like Akira-san, we would live in a better world. He constantly made me feel at home and taken care of, which I really appreciated since I kinda had a hard time mental-wise while being there. Akira-san even drove me to the station at the day I had to leave and made sure I have everything I needed. Great humans, great ryokan, great rooms, great onsen, great location, great stay. Would come again for sure if I ever were to visit Yamanouchi again. - ヤニク

This was an amazing cultural experience. The lady was very welcoming and made sure we had a pleasant stay by cooking amazing meals and breakfast. We had the normal meal on the first evening and a vegetarian meal on the second evening while wearing the yukata's that were provided. Both meals were fantastic. The area is quiet and beautiful. At the snow monkey park we saw three monkeys, which was a nice surprise since it wasn't very cold that day. We enjoyed the onsen. The smaller one is hot but very nice once you get used to it. If you're planning to visit the snow monkeys we definitely recommend staying at yudanaka yasuragi for an amazing japanese stay.

A truly wonderful experience start to finish. We booked the twin room with private external bathroom (i.e an outdoor relaxation area with a hot tub fed from the hot spring water). When you walk into the room you feel instantly relaxed. Supreme luxury and comfort. Our breakfast and dinner were included, and it was absolute fine dining, some of the best food we have ever eaten (served up in our own private dining room!) The service was second to none, we felt absolutely spoiled every minute of our stay. An unforgettable experience.

We stayed at Shiyama for two nights as we needed to decompress during our trip across Japan (so much walking and hiking). We absolutely loved our stay here. The owner is such an amazing host. He drove us around, gave great recommendations, and answered any questions we might have had. We'll definitely stay here again when we come back to Japan.

We loved our stay there! The staff is very helpful, the thermal bath available in the hotel is very nice, the room was spacious and cozy, with a window outlooking the mountains. We also liked that the hotel encourages guests to choose eco-cleaning of rooms (without sheets replacements etc) by gifting soft drinks coins for the choice. We find full daily cleaning unnecessary and not environmentally friendly, so we appreciate the gesture.

    This was by far the best Ryokan experience that we've had in Japan so far. Incredibly friendly staff, great location with beautiful bathing facilities and very very tasty food (I still feel bad about the horse meat though...). What more could one ask for? Admittedly, it's a bit off-track if you don't have a car, but they offer a shuttle service to the next station (Suzaka, not Suzuka ^^) so it worked out fine even for us. Thanks for having us, we'd gladly come back.

    Amazing ryokan experience with wonderful hosts who went above and beyond to help us enjoy our stay, provided delicious fresh meals and gave us great tips for visiting the surrounding areas. The location is also great fot visiting beautiful countryside that surrounds it, Obuse, and the snow monkey park. The onsen variety is really great too.

    Incredibly friendly staff and beautiful location. We have rarely felt this welcome before. The Onsen experience is really next level with traditional Japanese rooms and the possibility to sit in the hot water and look up at the stars at night. The included food is delicious, and you are within driving distance of hiking/skiing.
