    This hotel exceeded all my expectations. Firstly, the value for money was incredible. I couldn't believe the level of service and attention to detail provided for the price. Secondly, the location was perfect. Just a short walk from the station, it made it easy to explore the area. The rooms were warm and cosy, even in the depths of winter, and offered a great garden view. Lastly, the breakfast was simply divine. The Japanese dishes were not only delicious but also beautifully presented.

    All aspects of this hotel were beyond satisfactory.

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this ryokan. The hotel facilities were clean, cozy, and well-maintained. The onsen was incredible, with both indoor and outdoor options for relaxation. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. The location was ideal, away from the busy city life but still close to iconic tourist attractions. We also appreciated the free shuttle services provided by the hotel, making transportation to nearby onsens and the snow monkey park easy and convenient. Lastly, the breakfast provided was outstanding, offering a delicious start to our day.

    Absolutely nothing.

    During our stay at Kamei No Yu, we were delighted to find the rooms warm and cosy, providing a comfortable haven in the winter season. The highlight was definitely the exclusive onsen experience, where we had the entire space to ourselves. The dinner and breakfast served at the sister hotel were exceptional, making it the best meal we had in Japan. The hotel's proximity to the train station was convenient, and the staff went above and beyond to arrange transportation to the Snow Monkey Park and provide vegetarian meals. I highly recommend this fabulous ryokan for an exceptional stay.

    I recently stayed at a beautiful, family-run ryokan in Yamanouchi and I can't recommend it highly enough. The location was perfect for visiting the snow monkey park, with easy access from a nearby train station. The hosts were incredibly warm and accommodating, and the traditional Japanese dining was extravagant. The choice of four different onsens was more than anyone could ask for, adding an extra touch of relaxation to our stay. it was a fantastic experience.

    Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.
