Shibu Onsen Ryokan Listings

We stayed at the lovely Sakaeya Shibu Ryokan which was incredibly deluxe, clean and modern, whilst also retaining its traditional Edo period features. Our tatami room was reasonable sized and included an ensuite bathroom, although we didn’t use the shower considering the beautiful on-site onsen with indoor and outdoor baths.

Koishiya is also located in the main street, and this ryokan has typical Japanese style accommodation as well as budget dormitory accommodation. Onsite is a café and restaurant.

Hatsunoyu offers somewhat simple Japanese style accommodation with shared bathrooms.

Jigokudani Onsen Korakukan is located right at the snow monkey park, offering simple accommodation. You can even have an onsen with the snow monkeys if you wish!

Jinpyokaku is located at the trailhead to the snow monkeys park, and offers the ultimate in luxurious ryokan accommodation. This upscale Shibu ryokan even has some rooms with their own open air onsen bath.

Also right near the snow monkeys trail head is Senjukaku, boasting outdoor onsen, a heated indoor pool, and beautiful Japanese gardens. Senjukaku offers lovely traditional Japanese-style rooms with ensuite bathroom.
