Top Joetsu Hotel Reviews

APA Hotel Joetsu Myoko Ekimae

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are small by the American standards. Breakfast is ¥1600/person. Easy access to JR station."

Yukemurinoyado Yukinohana

10/10 Excellent

"A lovely Japanese style accomodation. Refreshing to see that shoes are off limits at the property and they provide good lockers for the shoes. Private baths and onsens are available for a soak after a day out to explore. Breakfast is good too though the timings of breakfast are a tad early but best way to start the day ! :)"

Shibu Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"One of the highlights of my trip. This is a very special place where the staff could not have been more warm and helpful. We booked the half board for 2 nights and the food was very traditional, high level Japanese cuisine which didn’t completely suit our teenagers (just something to be aware of) but the service was superb and the facilities (hot baths and room) amazing."

Shibu Onsen KOKUYA

10/10 Excellent

"Extremely friendly staff that were happy to show us through and explain the amenities in perfect English. The meals were beautiful visually and so tasty. Definitely recommend this onsen."

Live Cafe Hisui no Umi

10/10 Excellent

"Live Cafe no Umi is a chance to stay in a traditional Japanese home and experience home cooking and true hospitality. This is Keiko’s family home so it is very traditional and that includes a shared bathroom and toilet, but it is set up in a very easy way. The stairs are very steep, which is completely normal in Japan but worth being aware of. Our room included a small kitchenette which was handy, but we paid for breakfast (1,500 yen each) which was a huge, multi-dish affair presented beautifully like in a fancy ryokan. The downstairs is where Keiko serves meals and also is the location of the Live Cafe. We heard a jazz quartet rehearse while we were there - it was a fun chance to hear local musicians. If you want a regular hotel and its amenities, there are some in Itiogawa. If you would like to experience real Japanese living and people, we could not recommend Live Cafe no Umi and Keiko’s hospitality more."

Livemax Resort Echigo Yuzawa

10/10 Excellent

"Position is convenient for train and restaurants. Onsen area was fabulous alternating temperature between the 2 pools each day. All the personal care items you need. Microwave on each floor is handy. There was at least 1 english speaking staff on front counter at all times. Dinner a little expensive but food was nice."

Trip7 Yuzawa Sky Onsen Hotel

8/10 Good

"Checkout staff was incredibly kind and helpful. The onsen was welcoming for foreigners and we were informed tattoos were okay too, which was an unexpected surprise. Amenities (including robe for the onsen) were provided and there were vending machines easily accessible as well. Short walk to Yuzawa Station so it was very convenient. Compared to other properties in the area, it was nice to stay in a hotel with a private bathroom for only a slight price increase from hostel-style accommodations. Would recommend!"

Hotel Yuzawa Yuzawa

8/10 Good

"It is ski resort so unless skiing no activity to do."

Hotel Green Plaza Hakuba
