Shiganoyu Hotel is a GEM!

The hospitality (service and meals) at Shiganoyu Hotel were amazing. While we did not speak Japanese and the staff did not speak English, they used a translation tool for conversation and didn't let that be a barrier. It was so comfortable for our family of 5 - very homey and welcoming. The tea and treat upon check-in was a nice surprise and delicious. The onsen was a relaxing bonus! And the food was amazing and a wonderful experience. We had 3 breakfasts and 3 dinners and they were all different experiences! I would highly recommend this more traditional ryoken experience. The hotel is a little dated but clean. For us, it just added to the charm of this sweet hotel.

This is an authentic, traditional family run place. The family and staff were extremely friendly, helpful and courtous during our stay. We hired skiing equipment downstairs and skied out the front door to access the whole of Shiga Kogen mountain area.

Loved our stay here! The staff were incredibly helpful and friendly and went out of their way to make our stay fabulous. We skied right out the front door, convenient ski lockers in basement every night. Loved the beautiful onsen, with a view out to the mountain and snow, fully appointed with toiletries. So much food every night for dinner, lots of vegetables and meat, often hot pot or grill at table and breakfast generous and filling. Futons comfortable, room spacious and warm. Highly recommend!
