Independent Yudanaka Shibu Onsen hotels

"Friendly staff, quiet room and great amenities (free apple juice, tea, water and coffee in the rooms). This hotel is close to Nagano station and lots of restaurants and shops."

"My stay at Wafu-no-Yado Masuya was nothing short of magical. Nestled in the heart of Yamanouchi, this ryokan offers a peaceful retreat with authentic Japanese charm. From the moment I arrived, the staff greeted me with warm hospitality and impeccable service. Their kindness and attentiveness made me feel truly welcome. The rooms are beautifully designed in a traditional Japanese style, complete with tatami mats and futon beds. I especially loved the private outdoor onsen. Dinner was a highlight: a multi-course meal that showcased seasonal ingredients and exquisite presentation. Every bite was a delight, and breakfast was just as satisfying "
