Maruka Ryokan

Is very hard for me bc is a family business. But i rent a private bathroom. Went i arrived was a shared bathroom an a bath and was in really bad conditions. The owner so so nice. But they lied to me

What a beautiful stay. So authentic, kind and respectful. The loveliest experience - one that we will cherish.

A beautiful and rustic ryokan run by a lovely older couple and their son. The building and it’s location are incredible, just a short walk from Yudanaka Station and Shibu Onsen.

I very much enjoyed my stay at this little gem in the beautiful Onsen town of Yudanaka in the mountains. This ryokan is owned by an older Japanese couple. It had a private Onsen on site, so if you are not comfortable with the idea of using a public Onsen, I recommend this ryokan for you. Do keep in mind, this is an old building and is not a flashy or fancy place by any means. My stay here was very comfortable, and it feels very homey and safe here. This place is located very conveniently near the Yudanaka train station (10 min walk) and the Snow Monkey park (10 min bus ride to the top- then a 30 min hike to the park). There are also very many site-seeing spots nearby. Shibu Onsen and the World Peace statue are both musts. If you are considering coming to this cute sleepy unseen town, I recommend staying here.

Owners are nice people. Seems family-owned, so very traditional and homely. However, facilities are extremely dated, and there were cobwebs everywhere, which made me highly doubt the cleanliness...
