Shibu Onsen Koishiya Ryokan

I only stayed one night in this beautiful ryokan and in Yamanouchi but I could easily have stayed longer, as there seems to have trekking opportunities in the area. The ryokan itself is great on all levels: clean, quiet at night and has an authentic feel. The staff is very helpful and speaks fluent English. When you arrive, it will provide you with traditional Japanese clothing in which you'll wander by the streets, go to restaurants and most importantly, explore the 9 public and free onsen in the village. I slept in a 3 bed dormitory and hadn't slept so well for several days. A free shuttle service will bring you to the next bus station (perhaps train station as well)

非常有意思的一次體驗，沒有獨立衞生間，但是位置很好，旅舍管送車站和去看野猿泡温泉，自己坐車的話離公交車站也是100米，在温泉街的核心區域，就是周邊吃飯不太方便，畢竟太偏僻了，喜歡體驗日本傳統温泉街泡温泉的非常推薦來體驗一次。感謝店主和店員的友好接待。

良くも悪くも昔からある旅館、という印象でした。 ただ、スタッフの方々は接客は丁寧でした。 部屋の設備はエアコン、空気洗浄機といったものはありますが、テレビは無い為、友人と旅行に行く際は娯楽品を用意した方が良いかもしれません。近場にコンビニやスーパーもなく現地調達も難しい為…。ただし旅館にトランプやパーティーグッズもいくつか置かれています。各1点ずつです。

なかなかいいいい温泉町のいい感じの宿屋さんです。まぁちと温泉♨️♨️がかなり熱いので次回は覚悟して行きます。

静かで温泉が楽しめるところでした！

We loved everything about our stay. The location was excellent and very convenient to local attractions. We had a hire car and found parking easily at the nearby parking lot. The ryokan provides a shuttle service to the nearby Monkey Park if you don't have a car. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. The room was spacious and we loved the traditional ryokan experience. We were provided with yukata and a cane basket so we could visit each of the 9 public baths in Shibu Onsen, and collect the stamps. This is a great budget option offering good value for money.
