“The resort is surrounded by nature, very quiet and peaceful - perfect if that’s what you’re looking for. It can be a bit inconvenient without a car, but there’s a bus stop right in front of the hotel that runs at specific times and goes to the nearest train station, Shiojiri. The owner was very kind and even offered to pick me up and drop me off at the station, and he also took me to visit the old town, Narai-juku.

“A really old-fashioned Japanese onsen experience like nothing else. We ate in the Japanese restaurant one night and French the other evening. The food was fantastic. Rooms were comfortable but old fashioned. I would highly recommend the room with a private onsen - we saw tanuke (Japanese raccoon dogs) approach whilst we were bathing which was a really special experience. We hiked to the ridge (5 hours return) through a beautiful forest.”

“We had an excellent 2 night stay at Tamaya. We were collected and dropped off at Bessho Onsen train Station. All staff were wonderfully helpful despite our lack of Japanese language. The meals were fantastic and varied (different meals for breakfast and dinner each day). Our room was very comfortable with Western beds and a seating area. We spent a day exploring temples in the area- note that very few shops, cafes or restaurants were open on a Monday.”

“Far exceeded our expectations: it is the price of a regular hotel, but you have the hospitality of an onsen ryokan:
1. It has an outdoor onsen at the top floor. There’re people sharing with you, but it’s big enough for you to relax. It has sauna by the way.
2. After onsen, the free ice bars, the comics will definitely entertain you. The same location offers free yakult drink in the morning.
3. After 9pm, there is free ramen. Yes, free. And the taste is good!
4. Room is like new and clean. ……
