We stayed 2 nights and really enjoyed it. We ate breakfast and dinner at the ryokan and really enjoyed the food - meals are 7 courses and food quality is top notch. We would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in Yudanaka. They have a private onsen which we also booked so my husband and I could use the onsen together. ##### Erica Stayed 2 nights in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura 6 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### We enjoyed our stay The ryokan is lovely and the meals were excellent.

This was our 2nd visit to Yudanaka. Very comfortable traditional rooms, and the outside onsen on the 5th floor was great. The nightly wine bar was a pleasant surprise and the Japanese breakfast was high level. Would definitely stay again !! ![Japanese Breakfast](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/EBF299459F1D3BA5ADAC23BA04F2BEA0EF48DD421702386932698.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Outside onsen on the 5th floor](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/76A4BB016C2EA9E2FB979047825AE884E3949F0C1702386978616.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Stephen Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jaimee 9 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The staff were incredible, the service was incredible, the food was amazing, the onsen was fantastic.

The hotel has an amazing breakfast and couples can use the onsen on the roof for a price. The monkey bus leaves daily for exploration of the local hills. Great price and quiet. Staff was polite and friendly. Great experience and loud visitors need not apply. ##### Jonathan Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joshua 19 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We stayed two nights at Hotel Tsubakino during our honeymoon. The hotel was clean and inviting, the staff were immediately welcoming, taking us into the lounge to welcome us and get us checked in, offering us complimentary drinks. The room was large, clean, well appointed and included is own hot spring fed bath. Each breakfast and dinner was served in a private dining room with multiple courses of incredible food. Hotel Tsubakino was easily the best stay of our trip. ##### Joshua Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Maryna 17 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Enjoyed overall stay. The room is great. Hot springs are awesome. Vegan options for the food could be better. Make sure to check that kids are included when receiving confirmation. We didn’t and have to pay 1/4 more and it was already expensive. I checked the price online for four of us and it was exactly as we paid while booking but the confirmation letter didn’t include kids so we have to pay anyways. Otherwise happy with stay. ##### Maryna Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anna 18 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities What really made our stay special is kindness and attentiveness of the staff. We had large suitcases, and though the train station was a five minute walk, the front desk manager noticed us struggle walking uphill and came to our rescue with a hotel van, loaded and unloaded our bags. The dropoff service was not included, and we did not ask for it. He did it out of compassion and kindness. Very touching. Food was delicious! Do book dinner if its available. We had a traditional tatami room, which was cute, though a bit dated with some tears on the faded couch upholstery. The shower was very small, which is expected. We were lucky to have a private shower as many ryakans make you share. Great experience overall. ##### Anna Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Julie 20 Jun 2024 Liked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities My family enjoyed our stay at Hotel Tsubakino. We had a traditional Japanese room with a mountain view. The sunset views from our room were very nice. We also enjoyed the private onsen both nights of our stay. The temperature of the water fluctuated so the second night it was really hot and we were unable to stay in the water long. We had both the Japanese breakfast and the western breakfast. The Japanese breakfast was very impressive and it was tasty - although a bit much for the morning for our kids. So we tried the western breakfast on our second morning. It was good too. Beds were comfortable and the service was attentive and helpful. We came for the snow monkey park and while the snow monkeys didn't show up on the day we were there, I'm still happy we visited this beautiful mountain town. Would also recommend Sushiya for dinner. ##### Julie Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi 24 Oct 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This hotel was so incredibly amazing in every regard. We arrived and were provided a wonderful welcome drink. We booked a western king bed with an outer room for tatami mat as there were 3 of us. The rooms were very spacious - and had large sitting area and a massage chair. The Nespresso coffee machine in room was fantastic- but the coffee machine in lobby that opened at 6 AM became my best friend. The baths in this hotel on the roof were absolutely beautiful with incredible views of the mountains. We booked the private bath too- and this would be fantastic for a celebration as had beer and champagne. The food in this hotel was 5 star and so artfully presented. It was delicious and we had a choice of Japanese or western breakfast. The Japanese breakfast was amazing. They make their own apple juice which was so yummy. The staff at this hotel were so polite, accommodating, helpful, kind, and the absolute best. This was truly a special find- and I would recommend this hotel to one and all. It was very special. Very close to train station, very quiet, and close to the Heiwa no Oka Park (largest brass Buddha) and snow monkey park. We actually walked down from Snow Monkey park to hotel thru Shiba Onsen. I loved Yudanaka, Yamanouchi, and Hôtel Tsubakino! ##### Heidi Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2023 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [ocallaghan Hotels in City Centre Dublin](https://www.expedia.co.uk/City-Centre-Dublin-Dublin-Hotels-OCallaghan.0-n6176614-0--bOCallaghan.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Wyken Inn](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-The-Wyken-Inn.h107479459.Hotel-Information) > > [Pet-Friendly Hotels in Cirencester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cirencester-Hotels-Pet-Friendly-Hotel.0-0-d4602-tPetFriendlyHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Mountain Hotels in Bodrum](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bodrum-Hotels-Mountain-Hotel.0-0-d745-tmountainhotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Bodrum Marina Vista](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bodrum-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Bodrum-Marina-Vista.h1612467.Hotel-Information) > > [Apartments Naples](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Naples-Apartments.d6034774-aaApartments.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Kos Town](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kos-Town-Hotels.d6052008.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Guest Houses Dhiffushi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Dhiffushi-Guest-Houses.d6350221-aaGuestHouses.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [The Melrose Georgetown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Washington-Hotels-Melrose-Georgetown-Hotel.h22903.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Strathpeffer Pavilion](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Strathpeffer-Pavilion-Hotels.0-l553248635975635473-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Frank since 1666](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Amsterdam-Hotels-PH-Hotel-1666.h39616021.Hotel-Information) > > [Astor Hyde Park Hostel - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Astor-Hyde-Park-Hostel.h16061962.Hotel-Information) > > [TAOYA Kisoji ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nagiso-Hotels-Hotel-Kisoji.h11974355.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Paisley (GLA) to Temsia (AGA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/gla/aga/glasgow-to-agadir) > > [Flights from Hounslow (LHR) to Dundee (DND)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lhr/dnd/london-to-dundee) > > [Flights from Liverpool (LPL) to Chantilly (IAD)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lpl/iad/liverpool-to-washington) > > [Flights from Blagnac (TLS) to Leeds (LBA)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/tls/lba/toulouse-to-leeds) > > [KLM Schiphol (AMS) to Hounslow (LHR) flights](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flight-routes/klm-from-schiphol-to-heathrow/kl/ams/lhr) ### Cars > [Car hire near Knowsley Safari Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Compare-Cheap-Car-Hire-In-Knowsley-Safari-Park.d6078867.Car-Hire-Guide) ### Activities > [Things to do in Snettisham](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Things-To-Do-In-Snettisham.d6125402.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages ### General ---
