Family hotels and homes in Minakami

Lovely staff and perfect example of hospitality and care. The views were out of this world.

The lodge manager is a super chill dude,despite arriving very late, he managed to cook me up a nice dinner. The lodge can be reachable via Joetsu JR if you get off at 土合駅 Doai station, and if would more than ideal if you can drive. Be wary of that the doai station has a long underground tunnel that would take you 8 minutes even if run down stairs.

Beautiful setting with great facilities. Summertime and wintertime usage will be drastically different.

The staffs are very nice and helpful! The room was so big and comfortable. The breakfast were so good :) My toddler was very enjoy staying here.

The cleanliness and updated rooms were very nice

The property is beautiful and serene. One of my best stays in Japan.

Location surrounding with nature. Beautiful hotel. Wonderful staffs. Everything is perfect.

Everything comes together to make a beautiful and peaceful experience. The staff was very friendly and nice, like all of Japan, along with the attention to detail. The view follows very well the saying that life imitates art.

Overall, this hotel is great value: good location (close to Mt Tanigawa), nice views from the rooms, really good food and free parking. The owner is really friendly as well and played the piano while we ate dinner. This hotel is literally half the price of the other hotels we stayed in during our trip to Japan, and it's of similar quality.

Well equipped, quiet, excellent condition

The hosts were amazing!!!! Had my name on the sign as we drove up. I requested to change accommodation because the photo on the app was not what we got (my fault not theirs) they accommodated me with no problem. Recommendations and help to get to where we wanted was given..... I loved this place, so beautiful and peaceful. I also loved the cat..... Thanks you so much.

Very traditional Ryokan with amazing food and staff. The baths were very relaxing

Best house and best host ever! Zack, the host, helped us everything starting from booking a restaurant, contacting ski school and preparing everything in the house. We were surprised when we opened the fridge and found everything is well prepared. (Milk, yogurt, butter, jam, eggs, fruits, ice cream, ice and even a frozen beer glass in the fridge.) Also he prepared rice, noodles, snacks, chocolates, tea, coffee and etc. Everything mentioned is free of charge! Another thing that we like is the dish washing service, the host offer to do the dishes by just put dirty dishes in the service area and they will clean and put it back in the service area later. Although the host lives nearby and helps us a lot, we still feel private and comfortable. Thank you so much Zack, we do appreciated your action! This house has 6 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and 4 toilets. Very spacious! We will definitely come back! 10 out of 10! Do not hesitate to book this house!

Great for a big group, the host is really nice and friendly, everything is really clean.

Clean, accessible, and lovely hosts.
