What guests think
At Hotel Housei, travelers highlight warm, accommodating service, traditional ryokan charm, and relaxing indoor/outdoor onsens, alongside convenient free shuttles to Yudanaka Station, the Snow Monkey Park, and nearby ski areas, with good value especially on half-board stays.
Rooms are generally spacious tatami-style with futons, but furnishings and bathrooms can feel dated and walls occasionally thin. Breakfast and dinners are widely praised for taste and variety, though one review found breakfast disappointing. Cleanliness is usually good, with isolated complaints about changing areas; there is no on-site laundry and shuttle pickup may be limited at night. Expect a friendly, traditional stay with strong value and easy access to the snow monkeys.
