When you’re booking it’s better to book the rooms in one name if you’re planning on multiple rooms, so that way they can put you guys together but it was fine because we got one room with an Onsen. They also park your car for you because they have their own parking space and they give back your keys at check out. ##### Regina Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 13 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Free pick from the train station.

Enjoyed the stay there and the staff made it easy for us to get around with the free shuttle service to snow monkey park and the train station. We loved the outdoor natural onsen. The breakfast was good as well, good variety of cooked and fresh Japanese food. ##### Yu ### 10/10 Excellent #### Haley 29 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff was very helpful & friendly, and the room was beautiful! Maybe bring your own pillow, though, if you’re a side-sleeper. ##### Haley Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Derwin 7 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great place to stay to see the snow monkeys Comfortable, clean, and close to the bus station.

Outdoor onsen was magical. Freezing out of the water, but lovely and warm in the water. There was a Japanese garden around the bath. Staff were friendly and had a good sense of humour. There was a free shuttle to the station and the snow monkey park. The hotel was only 8 minutes walk from the station. Thank you Housei Hotel for an enjoyable stay. ##### Nicole Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jayvee 26 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 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. ##### Jayvee Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alex 26 Nov 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The service was excellent throughout my stay. They provided me transport to Monkey Park, and there after to Liyama station for my onward trip. Service was really attentive and always with a smile! ##### Alex Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Jan 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good service! Good service, Indeed! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Sai Kit Cedric 26 Jan 2025 Expedia said this hotel has laundry service. However, when we ask the hotel staff about where we can use the laundry, they recommend us go to coin laundry shop which need 9-11 mins walk. I think the hotel info provided in Expedia is not accurate. ##### Sai Kit Cedric Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sheila 2 Feb 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Staff so hospitable. Picked me up the bus station and the meals pre -arranged is a must to enjoy local cuisine. It's hard to get food nearby on winter time. My private Onsen at is amazing. ##### sheila Stayed 1 night in Jan 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Garden Cottage & Granary](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ross-On-Wye-Hotels-Garden-Cottage-Granary.h22407929.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheap Hotels in York](https://www.expedia.co.uk/York-Hotels-Budget-Hotels.0-0-d5489-tBudgetHotels.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Ramada Plaza by Wyndham Istanbul Tekstilkent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Istanbul-Hotels-Ramada-Plaza-By-Wyndham-Istanbul-Tekstilkent.h5795051.Hotel-Information) > > [B&B Peebles](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Peebles-Bed-And-Breakfasts.d5602-aaBedAndBreakfasts.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels near Yarmouth Isle-of-Wight Ferry Terminal](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yarmouth-Isle-Of-Wight-Ferry-Terminal-Hotels.0-l553248635930541396-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Tesla MedBed Center, East Dubuque](https://www.expedia.co.uk/East-Dubuque-Hotels-Tesla-MedBed-Center.h1076011.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Solitude](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lourdes-Hotels-Hotel-La-Solitude.h1367369.Hotel-Information) > > [The Red Lion](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Matlock-Hotels-The-Red-Lion.h20233446.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Blue Empire in Shinjuku](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tokyo-Hotels-Hotel-Blue-Empire-In-Shinjuku.h31967168.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Dubai - Al Barsha by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dubai-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Dubai-Al-Barsha.h1971502.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Hunterian Museum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hunterian-Museum-Hotels.0-l553248621532493526-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Holiday Inn Express Dundee by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dundee-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Dundee.h2387642.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal & Imperial Belvedere Resort - All inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hersonissos-Hotels-Royal-Imperial-Belvedere-Hotels.h1191451.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Glasgow](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Glasgow-Hotels.d1334.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Leonard Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-The-Leonard-Hotel.h55007.Hotel-Information) > > [Moon Dreams Marina Parc](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mercadal-Hotels-Moon-Dreams-Marina-Parc.h4349906.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Copenhagen](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copenhagen-Hotels.d178252.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Riva del Sole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Giovinazzo-Hotels-Riva-Del-Sole.h1927818.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Bliss](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/183162/flights-from-bliss) > > [Virgin Atlantic London (LHR) to Chicago (ORD) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/virgin-atlantic-from-heathrow-to-ohare-intl/vs/lhr/ord) > > [Flights from Dublin (DUB) to La Mercy (DUR)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/dub/dur/dublin-to-durban) > > [Flights from London (LHR) to Klagenfurt am Woerthersee (KLU)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/klu/london-to-klagenfurt) ### Cars > [Luxury Car Hire in Algeria](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Luxury-Car-Rentals-In-Algeria.d3-tLuxury.Car-Rental-Destination-Class) ### Activities > [Things to do in Windermere](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Windermere.d5478.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Betws Garmon](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Betws-Garmon.d6124245.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Warwickshire Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwickshire.d6046233.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [The Mailbox](https://www.expedia.co.uk/The-Mailbox-Birmingham-City-Centre.d6133263.Attraction) > > [Paphos Harbour](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Paphos-Harbour-Kato-Paphos.d6061819.Attraction) > > [Mundomar](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Mundomar-Benidorm.d6067257.Attraction)
