The character and the atmosphere of Shibu Hotel gracious and special. The staff picked us up from the station and greeted warmly at arrival. They went out of their way to help us do what we wanted (given time limits) and visit the Jigokudani monkey park. It was quiet time of year so few restaurants were open but we recommend the Sushi place next door. Our room was cozy and good size. I wished we could be here a week instead of only one night!

The rooms are nice and the food is EXCELLENT!!

There are no words to describe how we both felt while staying at the hotel. Shibu Onsen has a very nice "old Japan" feel and Shibu Hotel has the right feel to it. The rooms are nice and the food is EXCELLENT!! We have never tasted such beautiful and tasty food before. Staff is excellent. Everything is excellent. If given an another opportunity, we will come back to stay! 本当に楽しかったです。

We loved our stay at the Shibu Hotel.

We loved our stay at the Shibu Hotel. The attention to detail in our room was amazing. My wife and I had a very relaxing experience, and found the food and presentation by your staff to be very personable. Hope to stay here again.

We felt special to be in a small town with lots of locals using the onsen.

shibu_onsen.jpgThe gardens are very beautiful and the staff are friendly and helpful. The hotel is very safe, clean and comfortable. The manager collected us from the station and showed us some places of interest. We liked the snow monkeys and the walk through the forest. The staff were wonderful and helped explain the breakfast foods, showed us restaurants and things to visit and do. We enjoyed the old town and was very happy to see traditional culture. It was not crowded and over-run with lots of tourists. We felt special to be in a small town with lots of locals using the onsen(hot springs). We did enjoy the private onsen. Very relaxing after lots of walking. The town would be nice to visit in winter but autumn was also pretty.

The food was delicious and we really enjoyed eating authentic Japanese meals.

shibudining_3.jpgStaff were very welcoming and so friendly, even though we can hardly speak any Japanese. Nothing was too much trouble. Onsen was great- very relaxing and well-kept. The view from our room was beautiful and the sound of the waterful was very peaceful and relaxing. The food (dinner and breakfast) was delicious and we really enjoyed eating authentic Japanese meals.

Great location, close to Shibu onsen and snow monkeys.

shibu_room.jpgLovely place to stay for feel of traditional Japan with convenience of a modern hotel. Great location, close to Shibu onsen and snow monkleys- much more character than Yudanaka. Yamada family could not be more welcoming and friendly. Would definitely come back/recommend.

It is perfectly situated on the beautiful onsen street and within walking distance to Yudanaka.

We were picked up at the railway station and taken back again.Would highly recommend a stay at this hotel.

Shibu Hotel was a memorable experience!

Shibu Hotel was a memorable experience! Friendly attentive staff ensured our stay was comfortable. The pick-up service from the station and provided transportation to jigokudani snow monkeys was prompt and reliable. Our included breakfast was a very pleasant experience.

The atmosphere is calming, the staff work hard to make you feel relaxed.

shibu_bath_roten.jpgShibu Onsen Hotel is delightful. The moment you are met from the train station and you are welcomed at the front door of the hotel you know you are in for a treat. The atmosphere is calming, the staff work hard to make you feel relaxed- take tea after the private onsen, in the old school room at the front and water nightfall. The Japanese garden at the front is lit up and the waterfall in the background is so picturesque, a photograph doesn’t do it credit. We felt safe here, our belongings locked in the in room safe gives added security when traveling overseas. Using the public onsens also very safe. Monkey Park is best attraction in local area.

A very traditional and spacious hotel.

monkeys.jpgA very traditional and spacious hotel. As it is a small scale family owned business, staffs were very friendly and attentive to your needs. Will definitely recommend to my family and friends! And the onsen inside the hotel was great too, felt recharged after it.
