Shibu Hotel is an absolute gem! The beauty of the property is matched only by the incredible hospitality and service. From the moment we arrived, the thoughtful touches impressed us – our names were on shoe cubbies and our room door. When we went down for the multi-course traditional dinner, we were met with a warm welcome by a line of staff who even placed name tags on our shoes. This dinner was a culinary masterpiece, truly one of the most incredible dining experiences of my life. The ryokan was impeccably clean, and our room was spacious and spotless. The food, especially the unforgettable dinner and breakfast, is an absolute must-try. A delightful surprise was the availability of generously sized yukatas that comfortably fit both my husband and me (both over 280 lbs). The hotel’s hot spring was pristine and beautiful, offering a tranquil retreat and a lovely outdoor hot spring. They also offered a private hot spring for families/groups for an additional charge. The level of service was truly exceptional. They took care of our car, and upon check-out, it was brought to the entrance, backed in for easy loading. As a final touch, they even wiped our car windows before our departure. Without a doubt, this has been one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had, and I've traveled to over 20 countries. I wholeheartedly recommend Shibu Ryokan!l

A wonderful stay. Chose this hotel due to having transportation between Yudanaka train station and the Snow Monkey Park. Very handy indeed! There are two public onsen within the facility (gender separated) and two private onsen (indoor, free and outdoor, 2000yen per 30 mins, or free with select rooms) in addition to the 9x onsen in town. In-room drinks provided (free) and replenished daily with local snacks provided in-room and changed daily also. A nice touch! Tip - choose a consecutive night stay (2 nights) and you’ll have the town onsen to yourself until 3pm when the guests start to check into their hotels. Most only stay 1 night so the town onsen can get quite busy from 3pm. We chose the “no meals” options in our booking and were spoiled for choice within Shibu Onsen (places open from 5.30-6pm), no reservations necessary which isn’t the case for most other towns in Japan!

Everything, to begin with Yamada San our shuttle driver and tourist guide . Then to the amazing couple slightly elderly that ran the hotel to the young Nepalese staff that explained everything in English . The bedroom and private onsen were wonderful . But nothing prepares you for the utterly out of this world dinner that awaits you from the way you are served to the beautiful exquisite and so so delicious food . Breakfast was again exceptional. Shibu onsen town / village has such charm and the public onsens are perfectly quaint and boiling hot and scrupulously clean . Top top hotel from facility to staff to food

Abby

The room is spacious and the onsens in the hotel are great. I really recommend trying the outdoor private onsen, that was our favourite. The food was very high quality and the staff was very polite and helpful. Very close to the public onsens of the village. They also offer free shuttles to the station and the monkey park if needed, that is explained in advance. They also had English speaking staff members (not so important to us as we speak Japanese) overall great service and very good hotel.

Very nice traditional hotel decent price and friendly staff. They picked me up from the train station and even drove my luggage to the next hotel I was booked at since they only had the one day available. They also took me to the snow monkey park for free even though it was after my check out time and found my next hotels shuttle bus to have them take me to my hotel after I was done. Excellent customer service definitely worth staying there. Also you get access to the 9 pubic onsen in town.
