I visit every winter season. This is a Hotel that’s easy to stay at, and it improves every year, making it more comfortable. I think the food was better this year. The ski resort shuttle to and from the gondola station was quick, there were fewer international guests, and I could enjoy skiing at a relaxed pace—very satisfying. This year, the Tsuga-no-Mori lift was not operating, so I couldn’t see the magnificent Mt. Shirouma, which was a bit disappointing, but I rediscovered a beautiful spot with views of Mt. Yari in Hakuba. I had a relaxing and enjoyable ski trip.

The owner was very kind and wonderful.

Having a bathroom dryer is very helpful for long stays. In the Room I stayed in this time, one of the light switch covers was peeling off, and I thought that fixing things like that might attract even more guests. As always, the front desk staff were very helpful, and I had a comfortable stay. I would like to use this property again on my next trip.

Needless to say, the food was outstanding, and although it differed from our previous visit, it was excellent. After serving the dishes, they did not interrupt unnecessarily, so we were able to enjoy our meal at a relaxed pace. Just like last time, the proprietress and staff were cheerful and full of energy, which made us feel very comfortable. This is an Accommodation we would definitely like to visit again.

I stayed for two nights for my son's entrance exam. The front desk staff was very kind and supportive, which was very reassuring. The restaurant was under construction, so breakfast was a bento box, but it was nice to be able to choose from Japanese, Western, and curry options. I would like to stay again if I have the opportunity.

We stayed for three nights as a family of three. From the moment we entered the Room, we were captivated by its charm and felt excited. Check-in went smoothly thanks to our email communication in advance. Although we didn’t meet the owner in person, their thoughtful support made us feel at ease throughout our stay. The parking space is also conveniently located right next to the entrance. The in-room amenities—such as the washing machine, refrigerator, microwave, and electric kettle—were easy to use, and both the bathroom and bedroom were exceptionally clean. We truly enjoyed a comfortable stay on Shodoshima. Above all, the best highlight was the view from the window. We have always loved Shodoshima, but this stay made us love it even more. We would love to stay again. Thank you very much.

I came by rental car. It’s a bit far, but that’s Hokkaido for you. First, the Room: it was a dormitory for three, but I shared with one person around my age, and we had a comfortable amount of personal space, so I could relax. Dinner was delicious home-style cooking with a wonderful handmade feel. Breakfast was also to my taste—gentle flavors you don’t get at a Hotel buffet, like salted grilled hokke. I saw the owner wiping down chairs that had gotten wet from the rain. Even though they were busy, I was truly impressed by their thoughtfulness. The scenery outside after the rain was uniquely Hokkaido—beautiful and breathtaking.

We stayed on a Plan with dinner and breakfast, and the Onsen was excellent. We were also satisfied that it was available from early morning. The meals were luxurious and very delicious. We think this Accommodation is ideal for group trips with several people.

I stayed here to participate in the Kaike Triathlon. The building is not new, but it was very clean. The natural water dispensers on each floor were a nice touch. There is also a microwave, so you can heat up meals bought at a convenience store or a nearby department store. It’s also great that you can freely enter and exit the parking area by car. They lend bicycles for free, which was very helpful. I didn’t use it, but the theater is also available free of charge. I have stayed here three times before, and if I join the triathlon again, I will stay here again.

On a Multiple Night Stay with my elderly mother, the staff were very considerate in many ways, and we were able to spend our time comfortably. The meals were delicious, but for my elderly mother and me (over 60), the portions were too large to finish. We didn’t need lunch; snacks were enough. The Onsen water was great, and we could relax in the scenic-view bath, the family bath, and the steam bath. However, the bathtub in our Room was too deep, which felt a bit dangerous, so unfortunately my mother couldn’t use it. Since there is no elevator, I think guests with mobility issues should check in advance. The sunrise and morning glow from our Room and from the scenic-view bath—as well as the night view—were very beautiful scenery that we could have watched forever.

This was our second stay, and just like last time, we came in February to play in the snow. Above all, the staff were very kind both last year and this year, which made our stay truly pleasant. We stayed with a large dog, and the Room was so spacious that even after setting up a soft dog crate, it still felt just as roomy! The Room was kept very warm with a gas heater, and since we cooked for ourselves, it felt nostalgic—like an old training camp. We will visit again next year. Thank you.

During this Go To Travel campaign, I stayed at about 13 properties, and the meals here were the best—just as you’d expect from a kaiseki Ryokan. Everyone should visit at least once.

Close to Dotonbori, quiet, and in a prime location! Separate toilet and bathroom at an unbeatable price!

This is a classic, old-fashioned Business Hotel, but the price is reasonable and the Room is clean, so there’s nothing to complain about. It was also great that it’s close to the station.

It was a dog-friendly Room. The entrance and the Room were close to the parking lot, and it was also near the large public bath; the Facility was great.\nSince it was a weekday, there were no other dogs at the dog run, which felt a bit lonely, but the grounds are spacious so walking around was enjoyable. The meals were a good portion and very tasty. I thought it would be nice if the self-serve drinks in the lobby were free—I wanted coffee. I’d like to stay again if I have another chance.

I stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of two nights with breakfast included. Sometimes you get the same meals when staying multiple nights, but I was happy that the menu changed. There were many dishes and the portions were satisfying. The tableware was also lovely. The Ryokan has been renovated and both the exterior and interior are very clean. However, because the structure is an older wooden building, outside noise carries easily. More than voices, you can hear footsteps quite clearly. I stayed in a Room on the 2nd floor, and on the first night I could hear footsteps from upstairs until around 1:00 a.m., which was stressful. If you are sensitive to noise, it may be better to request a Room on the 3rd floor. When it rained, umbrellas and rain shoes were prepared at the entrance, so my feet didn’t get wet. Many people were walking outside in geta in the rain, but I was impressed by the rain-shoe service. The coffee, black tea, tea, and electrolyzed water service was also great. It felt like there were many younger staff members, but everyone was pleasant and helpful—and their English was fluent as well. It was a wonderful Ryokan where you can really feel attention to detail in everything from tableware and interior design to furniture and services. I would definitely like to stay again.

We stayed here with three households of our children to celebrate a 60th birthday. Dinner was served in a private dining room, and we were allowed to decorate it, so our family had a wonderful time together. They even lent us a red celebratory vest and prepared a festive ball for the occasion, which made the celebration truly exciting. They also took photos for us, and on departure they gave us not just one print but enough for each household—such thoughtful service in every way. The meals, the Onsen, and the service were all outstanding, making it a truly unforgettable memory. Thank you very much. We are very glad we chose this Accommodation.

With a location right in front of Mt. Fuji, opening the curtains in the Room revealed a perfect view of Lake Kawaguchi and Mt. Fuji. A small wooden deck with a wooden table and chairs allowed for an amazing coffee experience while enjoying the view of Mt. Fuji. This scenery at this price is incredibly cost-effective. The Room was spacious and very satisfying. I will definitely return!

I had visited for a day-use bath before, and the water quality and scenery stayed with me, so I decided to stay overnight. All of the dishes were delicious, and I finished everything. The char had no strong taste and was wonderful—enjoying it prepared in various ways was a real treat. I was completely full. The Accommodation felt like coming back to my family home in the countryside—comfortable, quiet, and relaxing. With such clear air and few streetlights, the night sky was filled with beautiful stars. The open-air bath overlooking fresh greenery was outstanding.

This was my first stay since the renovation. Not only is everything beautifully updated, but the amenities are well stocked, and I was truly happy that even the single room has a separate bath and toilet.
