Wonderful place to get away for a night or two

Reviewed By socosaja

My stay at the Takahan Ryokan was wonderful thanks to the welcoming staff, classic room layout and view, and history of the property. I arrived at Gala Yuzawa Station a little before the official check-in time (3:00 pm) but was still picked up within five minutes after calling. The staff member on the phone spoke good English, as did the two staff members - both non-Japanese - who welcomed me at the hotel. Everyone was patient and went out of their way to help me and answer questions. One staff member led me up to my room on the fifth floor of the hotel, showing me the entrance to the baths from the hot spring presumably under the property and the room Kawabata Yasunari wrote "Snow Country" in, both on the first floor, along the way. I was really happy with the room, which was quite large by Japanese standards and had a great view. As another reviewer noted, the amenities in the room are dated, but I thought that just added to the charm. As a fan of Kawabata Yasunari, I really enjoyed the history of the place and the chance to look out on the town from the same vantage point he described in his novel. The comfortable seating - with tea set - on the room's balcony/veranda made this especially enjoyable to do. Overall, my stay at the Takahan was one of the most memorable and enjoyable I've had. Highly recommended.

Once we arrived the hotel, they offered a welcome drinks and snack to each of our family members. They keep a high hygiene standard that all guests need to change their shoes to thier slippers started from you entered the lobby, they will keep your shoes at the lobby until you are going to leave. The room is clean and in new status which is very comfortable. We ordered the room with dinner and breakfast, the food standard and their service quality are very nice. Moreover, both of the meal were not buffet style and is Japanese cusin. We only did not satisfy the size of the public onsen area, it is not big enough actually.

Day spa use

Reviewed By Miracosta

Just stop by for outdoor bath only. 500yes per person. There’s an option to stay in room for 4 hrs for 5000yen. Outdoor private bath was completely outdoor and there’s no room to sit down or lounge after the bath. Small changing room only. But bath was kakenagashi (continuous flowing hot water) and beautiful views of snow. Owner of the hotel was very friendly and nice. Just steps from station and great place to stop for bath.

convenient, good food, big room, small onsen

Reviewed By TeresaC626

- the whole building is converted from ancient house and left a lot of ancient deco element - room is much bigger than mosy of the same class - extremely convenience (right opp the train stn) - very nice food and western deco restaurant - professional japanese style service by staff - has a lift so no worries on luggages - the onsen is the only thing a bit disappointing, its very small and wpuld definitely need some brush up

Cozy japanese inn with option of private onsen

Reviewed By merlisaloy

This was the only traditional inn we stayed for our whole Japan trip. We stayed 2 nights and opted the most expensive room with a private onsen. We had a nagging feeling that the male server assigned to our room, didn't like children. Our 2 boys are the average noisy asian kids so that was quite the bummer. Everything else about this stay, though, was wonderful. We entered a private entrance to a corridor for 3 different rooms. We were ushered into our room, which opens up to the shoe cabinet where we left our shoes and exchanged it for bedroom slippers. Bathroom with sink, bath & shower is separated from the Toilet. There is a separate entrance to our living space, with tatami mats and a central table where we sit & sleep. Beds are made by our servers every evening and kept every morning. The private onsen is the bomb of the whole stay. It is so private and felt so exclusive. It was very cold, washing in the cold air but when we enter into the onsen, it was so relaxing, watching the snow mountains during sunrise or sunset is really the experience of a lifetime. Traditional kaiseki breakfast and dinners are served and I could see how much care was put into the painstaking process of preparing for our meals. 1 catch though is that there isn't any other restaurant options so if you stay here, you'd better order all your meals or have separate arrangement to eat elsewhere. The hotel was nice enough to get us to a nearby restaurant and picked us up after (must be back by hotel before 8pm).

Very good ski lodge with hot spring

Reviewed By mgcwnd

- Liked the hot spring, midium sized (up to 5-6 persons), the bath room looked well maintained. - Foods serverd were decent, just very much impressed with Uonuma Koshihikari Rice, there's definitely a difference. - Room was a bit old but was clean, communal toilets were clean. - Near to Yuzawa high way exit. The person who seemed to run this place was very helpful and flexible with our requests, this makes the overall rating more than 4. - Satisfied

Excellent base for Fuji Rock Festival

Reviewed By Matt R

Excellent place to base yourself, not just for Fuji Rock, but also to to enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Etchigo Yuzawa. Very close to the train station with access to the Shinkansen and multiple local lines. The hosts made every effort to make our stay as comfortable as possible, including driving us to the train station and even upgrading our room to assist my pregnant wife. Highly recommend Otowaya Ryokan.

Excellent location for all the ski resorts

Reviewed By _H6036TW

The family running the hotel was exceedingly hospitable and literally ran from floor to floor to ensure our stay was effortless. With spacious traditional Japanese rooms and your own facilities we had a comfortable rest, however the largest convenience was an entire floor dedicated to ski facilities. Complete with a drying room, ski hire if needed, boot room and charging areas it was simply a handful of steps from there to the waiting buses and drivers ready whisk you off to any number of surround ski resorts. Speaking of which, the hotel was able to recommend which slopes to go to suit the weather and your style as well as able to offer heavily discounted passes with no prejudicial favouritism, they just want to ease your travels and for you to enjoy yourself. The endless buffet breakfasts provide ample sustenance and cater to every taste. I would like to once again than the staff for their service, advice and how the ensure we could get anywhere in Yuzawa.
