Shimotakai District Hotels with Hot Tubs

"Amenities, food and staff are amazing"

"Well located hotel located near several onsens and close to the main street. Not too far from the moving sidewalk to the lifts (although there is an unavoidable very steep hill). We booked a room with a private bathroom. The room was clean and of a decent size. Main downssides were the significant premium we paid over other hotels, which we in retrospect have trouble believing was justified, and the very poor western breakfast options. Breakfast was comprised of mostly Japanese options...

"Traditional Japanese breakfast, sleepy town when not ski season."

"Friendly staff, great amenities"

"We loved our time at this ryokan. The hosts were wonderful, and so accommodating. The room was huge and very comfortable."

"The staff (owner?) was friendly and spoke to us in English. They had a place ready for our luggage before check in so we could go to the Snow Monkey Park first. We enjoyed our traditional stay. The hot spring is very hot! I only stayed in for two minutes."
