If dinner service is available, go for it, it is worth every cent! It was one of the best meals that I had in Japan and I wish I can eat it again!
Owners of the Ryokan went out of their way to drive us from the train station to the Ryokan. They also drove us to the monkey park. The owners were also very friendly and knowledgeable with the area and I was able to learn more about their culture.
The futons were very comfy and I had very good sleep. Free tea, coffee and snacks were also provided. Convenience shop is close by also.
晩御飯はとても美味しい。布団は良いです。オーナはサル園で運転しました。お風呂も気持ち、よく休みしました。
Just 500 metres from Yudanaka Station, traditional inn Shimaya Ryokan is a family-run friendly accommodation featuring hot-spring baths and Japanese-style rooms with free Wi-Fi.
This place was absolutely amazing. The private onsen was perfect, the dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious and beautifully presented. The lady kindly taught me how to wear a kimono, and the man was extremely generous — he drove us both to the station and to the monkey park. Truly exceptional hospitality.
この宿は本当に素晴らしかったです。貸切の温泉は最高で、夕食と朝食はとても美味しく、美しく盛り付けられていました。女将さんは親切に着物の着付けを教えてくださり、ご主人はとても親切で、駅や地獄谷野猿公苑まで車で送ってくださいました。本当に心温まるおもてなしでした。
