The owner is very welcoming with great English. The Ryokan is older and somewhat rundown but it is also a community hub that has sing along classes for local kids (Rudolph the red nose reindeer in Japanese is awesome) and have fun with English nights. There is a Kyudo (Japanese archery) range behind the Ryokan which has classes taught by the owner as well as area competitions. Breakfast was varied and very tasty. I thoroughly enjoyed my time relaxing here. ##### John-Ross Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ace 1 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Wonderful affordable spot centrally located for mountain adventures. ##### Ace Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexander 6 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities This Ryokan was quaint in the perfect way.

The most kind host who runs the ryokan as the 3rd descendant of the family - it was begun by his grandfather. The property is dated with rough edges but it is a great option at a good price. The town is a sleepy but the few small restaurants we found were so good and cozy. The public hot baths by the train station were very nice and the neighboring town has a public onsen that can be accessed for a fee (it is one of the 9 the ryokans in that area have as part of their network). ##### Allen Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 11 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Was OK. Consider other Newer places This property was about a 20 min walk from the station. Place is very traditional but kind of rundown. For the same price you can stay in modern hotels with an onsen by the yudanaka station. The host was kind l even gave me a free ride to the monkey park and station but I think he needs to retire and relax. I cut my stay to one day as there was nothing to do in the general area. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Paul 13 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Such a wonderful place to stay and explore the surrounding areas. The host Miyasaka-san is exceptional and made us very welcome and comfortable. Daily rituals of traditional breakfast and bathing in the onsen, and the opportunity to watch a local archers traditional competition here in the dojo made for a truly magical stay. Highly recommended. ##### Paul Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacob 26 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Uotoshi Ryokan was amazing!

The Japanese dinner and breakfast was so good. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/AD394062EAB1B6CE354017887A7CD7DE822244D11669286468916.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### GLEN BOISAN Stayed 1 night in Nov 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jacob 30 Dec 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Truly an amazing experience. It is a traditional ryokan run by lovely people — the owner made us breakfast, offered to drive us to the Snow Monkey Park, and gave us apples and candy for our train ride home. It was the highlight of our trip. It is definitely not for those who need luxury and comfort, but it is cozy, cool, and memorable ##### Jacob Stayed 1 night in Dec 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Linda 11 Jan 2023 If you are on a budget, this was a good place to stay with shared bathrooms and sink areas. Shared bathroom has 2 stalls, very small and sink areas have 2 with upstairs and downstairs. I think this place's capacity is 8 parties total. We stayed for 3 nights and chose breakfast. Breakfast was delicious and owners were hospitable. We felt bad that they had to work on New Year's. Most of the surrounding area was closed from New Year's Eve through 01/04/23, but surprisingly Snow Monkey Park was open on New Year's. If you're wanting 3 star hotel amenities, this is not the place for you, but for the price we paid we felt it was reasonable and truly did experience the traditional ryokan experience and the onsen onsite was a plus. ##### Linda ### 8/10 Good #### Korey 25 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities There are no private showers at this property. This may not be an issue for most people, but I read a misleading review which made me book this property thinking there were private showers and that is NOT the case. The shower is a combined 4 person shower and tub you can soak in afterwards. The breakfast was amazing and I highly recommend it if you have the option. Host was knowledgeable about the area and snow monkey park and the property was very close to the train station which was convenient. Futon on the floor was very uncomfortable and felt like you were sleeping directly on the floor. I ended up checking out a day early because I couldn’t hack lol, but overall is probably worth the price. ##### Korey Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Verified traveller 19 Apr 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Falsk markedsføring og uacceptabel pris Intet svarer til oplysninger, eksempelvis ikke privat bad. Beskidt alle steder, beskidt sengetøj, værelset ikke rengjort og der lå brugte stofservietter (indtørret og gulnet) fra tidligere gæster på værelset. Bygningen i forfald, eksempelvis var gelænder løst til trappen op til første sal, som er vigtig at støtte sig til når man skal bære bagagen op på værelset. Bygningen har absolut ikke i den stand, som det fremgår af billederne. Værten var sød, men bar præg af, at parret ikke havde ressourcer til at opretholde stedet. Tjekkede ud en dag før, grundet stedets forfatning. Prisen er på ingen måde acceptabel i forhold til hvad man som gæst bliver mødt med. Stedet har absolut engang været fantastisk. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Keiichi 15 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service 　昔ながらの日本旅館で、自分にとってはとっても落ち着きました。温泉はどうやら源泉を持っているようで、温度が絶妙で、とても心地よかったです。もちろん、一晩中入れます。朝ごはんもとてもおいしかったです。 　駅から下に向かって、歩いて7分ほど。駅前にはローソンがあります。昼は適当なお店がありますが、夜になると若干の呑み屋と寿司屋、スナックくらいしか開いていないので、食事をしようとしている人は要注意です。 　唯一の問題はWiFi。ご主人のスマホでは電波が受信できるようなのですが、こちらのスマホでもパソコンでも電波が入りませんでした。相性が悪いのでしょう。 　でも、値段も安いし、居心地がよいので、また利用します。 ##### Keiichi Stayed 1 night in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Akiyoshi 16 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 食事処はそんなにたくさんあるわけではないようです。 素泊りならば市街地で惣菜の調達をすると良いかも？ ##### Akiyoshi Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### JINGYI 23 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 外国人に勧めの旅館です。 ##### JINGYI Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Johannes 13 Nov 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Ein sehr sehr schöner Aufenthalt in einem alten und Authentischen Ryokan.
