Positive: It may sound weird but i really liked it that a lot of the items and decor were older but very well maintained. They seem to really respect the items they use and not replace everything unnecessarily every 2-3 years, which gave the hotel a really nice lived-in ambiance. The staff were very attentive and polite. The price includes a multicourse fine dining style dinner in a private room, and the hotel has their own shuttle bus that they will use to drive you to the monkey park and back or the station and back. You can also use private hotel outdoor onsen which is very nice in the winter (you sit in a very hot tub with snow all around you).

Summary: Great ryokan style hotel. Highly recommended.

Positive: The location was excellent, right in the heart of the charming resort town of Shibu Onsen. The staff were outstanding, and we really appreciated the pickup from the train station as well as the shuttle to the monkey park. Everyone was very kind and attentive to our needs. The hotel’s onsen was also very enjoyable.

Negative: We stayed just after New Year, so the room rate was quite high, but we understand that the whole town was sold out and demand was exceptionally high. The town shuts down very early at night so it was a challenge to get dinner after 8pm and there was no dinner at the hotel.

Summary: Great stay at a warm family owned resort hotel

Positive: Shibu Hotel is an absolute gem! The beauty of the property is matched only by the incredible hospitality and service. From the moment we arrived, the thoughtful touches impressed us – our names were on shoe cubbies and our room door. When we went down for the multi-course traditional dinner, we were met with a warm welcome by a line of staff who even placed name tags on our shoes. This dinner was a culinary masterpiece, truly one of the most incredible dining experiences of my life. The ryokan was impeccably clean, and our room was spacious and spotless. The food, especially the unforgettable dinner and breakfast, is an absolute must-try. A delightful surprise was the availability of generously sized yukatas that comfortably fit both my husband and me (both over 280 lbs). The hotel’s hot spring was pristine and beautiful, offering a tranquil retreat and a lovely outdoor hot spring. They also offered a private hot spring for families/groups for an additional charge. The level of service was truly exceptional. They took care of our car, and upon check-out, it was brought to the entrance, backed in for easy loading. As a final touch, they even wiped our car windows before our departure. Without a doubt, this has been one of the best hotel experiences I've ever had, and I've traveled to over 20 countries. I wholeheartedly recommend Shibu Ryokan!l

Summary: Breathtaking facility and otherworldly hospitality
