We booked the room with private onsen for three nights and that's so relaxing. The 9 course dinners (Japanese cuisine) (half board) were superb and have certainly exceeded our expectations in terms of quality and quantity. Breakfasts are different every morning too. The cost may be considered high but it's worth it. Not a lot of staff can speak English but should be able to get by. The lady night manager was not particularly friendly but overall the atmosphere was very professional. Highly...

Excellent stay with exceptional service from the staff! Both the dinner and breakfast were plentiful with great variety of dishes served. Looking forward to coming back in the future.

The guesthouse was absolutely gorgeous and in a stunning part of Japan. We rented a car in Matsumoto and used the guesthouse as a base for visiting Kamikochi. The hotel is bright and cheery. The rooms are a generous size. The futons comfortable. Perhaps the best thing of all was the private onsen. The dining options around are a little limited- very few are open at night. There are more soba lunch options but we were out walking. We went to both Abbey Road and Springbank which were fine.

A fabulous traditional experience especially when you include half board and enjoy a Japanese dinner and breakfast. Everyone at the ryokan was very friendly and
our group loved our stay.

Hugely welcoming when you arrive. The staff are lovely and the hotel is spotless. We had breakfast (Japanese both days) and a dinner here, which was all superb. The hot bath is really well set up too. Hotel is between the station and old town, so a perfect location.

Due to the a typhoon we spent 6 nights at this hotel and stayed in each type of room. The hotel is modern, Japanese edge designer hotel in a great location the very best part of Takayama.
It took us a few nights before we really understood the philosophy of the hotel owners and management team. It is designed to immerse you in a unique Takayama local experience. So no TVs, free drinks in the main lobby, with its furniture etc made by local craftsmen and a great onsen, you are encouraged to...

The best area to stay in Shiozawa Onsen is the central onsen district, which is where the majority of the traditional ryokan and hot spring facilities are located.
This area is relatively compact, running along the Shiozawa River, with most accommodations situated within easy walking distance of the main onsen baths. You'll find a pleasant mix of traditional architecture and small, local shops selling regional specialities. The general layout encourages a relaxed pace, superb for enjoying the hot springs.
Couples looking for a tranquil retreat will find this area particularly appealing. Many ryokan here offer private onsen baths, allowing for an intimate and relaxing experience. The focus is on unwinding, enjoying traditional Japanese hospitality, and savouring local cuisine, often served in your room.
For those seeking a more active, yet still relaxing, holiday, the area around the base of Mount Norikura offers a good alternative. While slightly further from the very centre, it provides easier access to hiking trails and scenic viewpoints, making it ideal for combining hot spring relaxation with outdoor activities.
When is the best time to go to Shiozawa Onsen?
The best time to visit Shiozawa Onsen is during the spring (late March to May) or autumn (late September to November) for pleasant weather and stunning natural scenery.
Spring brings mild temperatures and the beautiful cherry blossoms that Japan is famous for. The hillsides around Shiozawa Onsen begin to turn pink, creating a picturesque backdrop for your hot spring experience. It's a lovely time for leisurely walks and enjoying the fresh air.
Autumn offers equally comfortable weather with the added spectacle of vibrant autumnal foliage. The surrounding mountains are ablaze with reds, oranges, and yellows, making it an ideal time for scenic drives or gentle hikes before relaxing in the warm onsen waters. The crisp air is particularly invigorating.
