Yudanaka Onsen Wafu no Yado Masuya

The meals were beautifully presented and delicious, and the bath was wonderfully soothing—its gentle water warmed me to the core. The places we visited based on the owner’s advice (a walk and a roadside station) were also excellent. We were pleasantly surprised by the exceptional service of being able to use three yukata per person for a one-night stay, which is something you rarely find elsewhere, allowing us to relax in comfort. The attention to detail and thoughtful hospitality throughout were outstanding, and we had a wonderful time. Thank you very much.

With an open-air bath, the Onsen in our Room was at just the right temperature and felt wonderful. It had no smell, so I couldn’t really tell what the water quality was like, but my husband—who usually dislikes baths—went in three times, which is rare for him. However, I was concerned that the bath bucket was blackened and chipped, possibly due to the Onsen.The meals used local ingredients, and the salmon was very delicious. The seasonal Nemagari bamboo shoots were also a rare treat, so we bought some to take home from a shop near Nagano Station.
