This is an amazing property run by attentive and kind staff who provide excellent and seamless service. We booked one of the rooms (Anemone) with a private onsen tub and it was so relaxing and peaceful. The beds were also so comfy and the massage chair was a fun surprise! We loved the cozy yet elegant decor throughout and all amenities available to guests enhanced the stay, especially the evening wine/whiskey in the lobby, and the chance to use a variety of colorful yukata. The staff, especially the young woman who welcomed and served us most meals, was phenomenal and so kind in explaining all the dishes and pointing out local specialities. Speaking of the food, it's delicious! Each kaiseki dinner was carefully crafted and a true joy. The property is a short walk (15 min) or taxi from Kaminoyamaonsen station and was convenient for our day trips to Zao and Yamadera. Do yourself a favor and visit this gem.

The meals were absolutely exquisite, put together with precision and elegance. Substantial portions as well. The staff were delightful, they told us about a festival that was going on in town that was super fun to enjoy. I loved experiencing a traditional Japanese futon as well as the rotenburo that was attached to our room. I can’t say enough nice things about this hotel.

The staff was very kind, as expected from a family owned ryokan. The bath area is small, but you schedule your personal bath time. Food is incredible, a must try when visiting Zao. Location is near the main attractions, like the cable car is reachable by walking. Lots of nearby onsens.

A nice ryokan with a nice onsen. Very hospitable staff. The free milk/coffee/pudding service at the lounge is a nice touch, especially the fresh milk is very creamy and delicious. They served the famous Zao beef for dinner which was delicious. The room is huge and comfortable with all the amenities

The location was fantastic! Able to walk to the farthest ski lift to warm up and work our way out to the other end of the resort. Walked straight from the bus stop to the hotel, roughly 10 minute walk with all our luggage. The accommodation was clean, ADORABLE, and the staff was some of the friendliest I have experienced in my life. The room was spacious, the onsen was absolutely incredible. Cinderella bar/restaurant was phenomenal as well as the other restaurant in the hotel. Breakfast was amazing as well. HIGHLY recommend staying here.
