Close to yudanaka station - the onsen was jaw dropping at night, and we enjoyed our dinner and breakfast course meals a lot. Service was great, and I appreciate the lift to yudanaka station the day we checked out.

This was a real highlight of our trip and we wish we could have stayed longer! First the area and Ryokan are gorgeous, completely picturesque! Staff are attentive and friendly and make a real effort in English! The food and the rooms were top notch! My wife and I had the best time. Thank you to all the staff who work hard to make Sakaeya what it is! We slept like a baby thanks to the food and onsen and truly hope to be able to come back. Also many thanks for the surprise gift to celebrate our honeymoon

Location: It's a bit far away from Nagano Station but if plan to go to the Snow Monkey Park you can get the 2 day pass and take the express bus from Nagano Station to the park; Once you finish visiting the park you can walk 30 minutes downhill to the hotel. They also offer a shuttle to Yudanaka station once you are ready to checkout. From there travel to Nagano station via train using your pass. Stay: First time staying at a ryokan and I though it was an amazing experience. Staff were amazing, they had a few English speaking staff at check-in to explain everything to us. They had multiple private onsens offerings you could pick and reserve, so you have the opportunity to relax without others. This place also gives you the key to 9 public onsens for you to experience. Room was spacious, the photos you see are accurate to our experience. Its a 400 year old ryokan so expect it to have some oddities. Dinner: First time experiencing dinner at a ryokan and it was excellent. Staff serving dinner had limited English but did their best to explain what was being served. They were very exceptionally friendly and served us with enthusiasm. Breakfast: Excellent fresh and light morning Japanese style breakfast. There was a lot of small dishes but overall not excessive amount of food for the morning. I loved the steamed veges with accompanied sauce.

I highly recommend this ryokan. Dinner and breakfast was amazing. Onsen experience with family was great. We arrived by car and Akira managed to provide a parking spot for us. The rooms were spacious and futons were comfortable for us. Heating system works great during our mid winter stay. Toiletries and yukatas were provided. While we were about to leave, he is assisting some guests to be dropped off at Snow Monkey Park which I think is great if you have no car.

Great location, in house restaurant for breakfast and dinner, traditional Japanese Ryokan. Despite being a tatami mat with futons, the bedding was extremely comfortable. Free bus pick up from train station as well as free bus drop off to Snow Monkey park. Staff were very helpful and provided lots of information about what to do and how to do it. Shared bathroom facilities were quite basic but OK. The bonus is the key to the public onsens, all 9 of them.

The staff were superbly friendly while retaining the unique traditional ryokan atmosphere. The onsens were beautiful and entirely peaceful. Both the guest rooms and the dining rooms were beautiful tatami rooms that when paired with the yukatas really made you feel the atmosphere at its most. The shuttle bus service to the snow monkey park and train station was also incredibly helpful!

Loved the traditional Ryokan. Cosy rooms with comfy futon style beds. We had a room at the front with an indoor balcony that overlooked the street. Had breakfast and dinner at the restaurant, which was great. Staff were really friendly, helpful and spoke English. They supplied Yukata and geta to wear out to the onsen - the closest was only 50 meters up the road.

Lovely hotel. Room is very big with an amazing view of the city and mountains. The room has a traditional ryokan look with tatami floors and futon, the bathroom has a nice little bathub. The onsen is nice and clean. The staff, even though they couldn't speak english, made the effort to communicate with translator, and were very friendly and helpful, and in the end even gave me a lovely gift.

Beautiful old ryokan with super friendly and helpful team; quality service (the pickup from the train station, the drive to the monkey park); delicious food and superb cappuccino. Really enjoyed the traditional rooms (sleeping on futons) and the relaxed atmosphere in the ryokan. And not to forget: access to the 9 onsen baths as a guest of the ryokan. Try them all, walking towards them in traditional Japanese yukata and gets. Enjoyed every second of being here!
