Really enjoyed my 6-night stay here. It really is a traditional Japanese hotel and experience and loved the friendly and helpful staff, and the location is just a short 10 min scenic stroll across the river to the bus/train station.
Didnt know what to expect but the Japanese style tatami rooms were cosy and comfy, and the outdoor onsen was just what was needed after a day on the ski slopes.
The half-board option is a must if you love Japanese food and each night was like a little banquet with an array of different and fresh local dishes, and was great value.
Not a 5-star hotel by any means if thats your thing, but all in all a great stay and good location and Yudanaka is quaint little village at the foot of the Alps, that is worth a wander around, as Shibuya Onsen and Snow Monkeys are closeby.

Loved my stay at Hotel Housei. Yamanouchi is one of my favourite places in Japan and this is a great place to stay as it is within walking distance of Yudanaka and Shibu Onsen. Hotel Housei provides shuttle service to Snow Monkey Park and Ski areas nearby.
Dining and breakfast options were great.
I must also mention the staff is very English-friendly which made things very easy for me.
We booked two nights here, and it was amazing. The staff was very attentive and helpful, they even shuttle you to and from monkey park, and the train station! Which I had no idea, so it was a lovely surprise. The outdoor and indoor baths were a fun experience. Our rooms were also clean and comfortable to be in. We’re not used to the traditional Japanese beds, but we managed! Overall experience was lovely. I will definitely be going back next time
This place is simply a gem, everything about the hotel, staff, food was too class and a major benefit was the free on site onsen facilities.
It is close to the train station and plenty of great dinning options within easy walking distance from the hotel.
The hotel also offers free shuttle bus services for you to the station, the snow monkeys and a few other places, they even took me to the chemist to get medicine for one of our family group members.
Cannot rate this hotel highly enough👍

Great onsen experience at bargain price
I picked this hotel for visiting snow monkey hot spring park and its shuttle service to the park and train station. The staff are very friendly. They don’t speak English but using google translate between them and guests solves any barrier. The hotel is dated and it shows but I found everything clean enough and had a very comfortable stay. Highly booking with the meal included. A very good idea all and all and they have both indoor and outdoor onsen areas. Rooms are fairly large and shuttle service is convenient. The owner is friendly and outgoing. I wouldn’t come here only for onsen experience and it was a great stay to combine it with other destinations in the area.
The staff provided such a warm welcome and really helped create an enjoyable visit for our family. We very much appreciated the complimentary shuttle service and while we only speak English, the staff were so patient with us and we were able to communicate fine. We appreciated being able to store our luggage there after check out. The Japanese-style room with tatami mats and futons really completed our memorable experience of traditional Japanese hospitality. Thank you.
