"Such a wonderful and unique experience ! The owner greeted us outside the door with a warm welcome and also on our departure was there to say good bye. The entire staff was so kind and courteous. Marina, especially went out of her way to help us throughout our stay. We chose to book the private onsen room and it was well worth the extra charge. We also opted to have the traditional Japanese dinner. Again, such a unique and amazing experience. We were asked to choose from a beautiful selection of yukatos/kimonos upon our arrival to wear to our dinner. And of course don’t miss the snow monkeys! It is a short train ride, but then quite a long walk uphill and a further beautiful hike to get there. (We did see taxis dropping off people to the top but it would still be half an hour easier hike to arrive there ). Worth it !"

"Amazing staff that are so accommodating, the dinner was a great experience and the food was delicious. Couldn't fault the experience here. "

"charming - excellent service from hosts. as others have mentioned, they gave us a ride up to the monkey park, & to train station upon our departure, for which we were so grateful after a week’s trekking. as vegetarians, we were also super happy with the breakfast offerings. such sweet people, would stay again "

"Went with the half board and used the osen. Both completely exceeded my family's expectations. Loved everything!"

"Amazing place! Loved the kaiseki and on site onsen experience "

"Great service and great location a great rate"

"Staff are super attentive and very helpful. Love the onsen and the traditional room. The top floor outdoor onsen is lovely. Breakfasts are great. Hotel is about 10 min walk from the train station, We had a lovely stay. Highly recommended. "

"We loved Kamei no Yu! The staff was welcoming and kind. Our room was lovely, clean and looked out onto the garden with lamps. We recieved a welcome sweet with tea, and some snacks in our room. We were able to reserve a bath time in the ryokan. It was a little unclear at booking that the more historic baths and also dinner was at a larger ryokan up the road just a bit. We didn't mind, especially if it keeps a smaller more personal ryokan in business. We only were here one night so we could visit the monkey park. The last time we were in the area was 2008. The town still feels quiet and I imagine most people come for the monkeys and head back to Nagano or elsewhere. I'm happy we stayed and I highly recommend bringing your business not only to the park but to the local ryokan and other businesses."

"This Ryokan was quaint in the perfect way. It felt traditional without the modern flair. The owner was amazing and drove me to the snow monkey park at no cost. The onsen was perfect and tatami room was gorgeous. Amazing view around the town with the snow."
