Top Shirahone Hotel Reviews

yama-niwa-INN - Hostel

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was very clean and the staff were helpful in checking me in. I let them know in advance I would be late and they guided me. It was also useful to have a convenience store nearby."

Shirafune Grand Hotel

8/10 Good

"If you want a traditional Japanese experience and get away from the main towns, then this hotel is for you. Yes, you can take the Western rooms, but the Japanese rooms will give you a better local vibe. If you take the breakfast and dinner option, then be prepared not to eat anything else. They supply yukata's and belts and you'll feel more comfortable being in traditional garb. It's a slog out and back to Matsumoto, so just make that a one-off day trip. Hirayu is much closer (15-mins) now the tunnel is open, but that only really swings in peak season. There are walks everywhere. For the more adventurous the start of one of the Mt Yuke Duke (volcano) walks is about 20 mins away on the old 158. It's a 7 hour round trip up and down. Plan to start at say 7-8am. Parking is limited, but they will always find you a spot and bring your car to you."

Onsen Lodge Watari

10/10 Excellent

"This place had the feel of a "best-kept-secret"; gem-of-a-find type place. Everything about staying there was fascinating. As the management, to their credit, explicitly warns on their listings, the structure is old and rustic. But this wasn't a deterrent in any way, it adds to the charm and they do an excellent job keeping it clean, well maintained and accommodating. As a westerner looking to explore some backwaters parts of Japan and stay in a traditional Onsen ryokan that is not a tourist trap, this was the perfect best-of-both-worlds fit. The manager spoke good English and was helpful so that there was no confusion or culture shock, but none of the authenticity was compromised. I would certainly stay there again, even go out of my way again - drive up to the mountains - in order to stay there if overnighting en route to or from Tokyo southward."

Ryokan Sansui

10/10 Excellent

"Ryokan Sansui is a peaceful retreat with beautiful mountain views, private outdoor onsen rooms, and the most dedicated, attentive and kind staff. We felt completely pampered by their service and hospitality. The meals were traditional omekase using local and seasonal ingredients. The food is clearly made with love, pride, and care. The japanese-style room had a sweeping view of the mountains and comfortable futon beds. We had plenty of space to unpack and do our morning yoga in the room. The robes are high quality. The room and the hotel in general are very quiet and peaceful. It is easy to get to the ryokan from the bus stop, just a 2-3 minute walk on the main road."

Hoshino Resorts KAI Okuhida

10/10 Excellent

"Très bel hôtel dans un petit village tranquille. C’est super de pour profiter des onsens et de l’eau chaude provenant Des Sources thermales. Beau séjour tranquille."

Takumi no Yado Miyama Ouan

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel delivered exactly what we were seeking: top end but traditional experience of J. Alps, with gorgeous natural spring baths. Way more than expected, the Kaiseki dinners were outstanding, and staff went over and above to help (we even needed an MD). I would very highly recommend this onsen inn."

Tabist Kazeyuki

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful area"

BYAKU Narai

10/10 Excellent

"We absolutely loved our stay at this wonderful hotel. The room was spacious, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable — a perfect place to relax and unwind. The meals were truly exceptional and among the most special dining experiences we had during our trip. The hotel is located in a charming little town that feels almost as if it were taken straight out of a movie. The atmosphere, surroundings, and attention to detail made our stay feel very special. A beautiful and memorable experience"

AZUMINO KOGEN RESORT

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful food and onsen. Spacious room."

Frequently asked questions

When is the best time to go to Shirahone?

The best time to visit Shirahone is during the autumn months, from late September to November, for the spectacular display of autumn foliage, or in winter, from December to March, for a serene snowy escape.Autumn is particularly popular for those who appreciate natural beauty. The surrounding mountains, including the Norikura Kogen area, transform into a palette of reds, oranges, and yellows. The crisp air makes exploring the walking trails around the Shirahone Onsen area, such as those leading to the scenic waterfalls, very enjoyable. Couples often find this season ideal for romantic getaways, enjoying the picturesque scenery and the relaxing onsen experience.Winter offers a distinctly different, yet equally appealing, experience. Shirahone is blanketed in snow, creating a peaceful and almost magical setting. The outdoor onsen, with steam rising against the snowy backdrop, provides a unique and memorable experience. This season is great for those seeking tranquility and a chance to unwind in a quiet, beautiful environment. It's an excellent choice for solo travellers looking for a peaceful retreat.
