“Lovely traditional ryokan, with helpful staff, great facilities and value for money.”

Loved the traditional Japanese room, and the Japanese breakfasts were fantastic. I stayed in the Japanese-Style Quadruple Room with Private Bathroom, which was very luxurious as a solo traveller. The staff were very courteous and helpful.

“Traditional experience”

Lovely traditional Japanese inn, extremely friendly and helpful staff. Delicious japanesr breakfast

“Nice location and atmosphere”

Its typical Japanese type of Ryokan which you can feel nostalgic

“I regret only staying here for one night.”

It is located right next to Oyu in Nozawa Onsen, making it very easy to find and quite impressive. The ryokan was far more beautiful and well-maintained than I had imagined. There is also a designated area in the basement for drying snowboards and skis. The Okami(landlady) is very kind, so feel free to ask her anything.

“I wouldn’t recommend staying here during winter time.”

The staff are friendly and helpful.

walking distance to both Hikage and Nagasaka Gondola

“Charming ryokan in the heart of Nozawa Onsen”

Excellent location, friendly staff and delicious breakfast. Short walk to either gondola and close to the bus from iiyama station. Right off the main street so easy to walk to bars, restaurants etc

“If you want a traditional japanese experience then I would recommend Chitosekan.”

A lovely traditional Ryokan right in the middle of Nozawa main village a short walk from to the Yu-Road escalator which takes you straight up to the ski area. The hosts are lovely people and the traditional breakfast was delicious. It also has it's own onsen.

I stayed here with my sister for 3 nights. This was a lovely and incredibly beautiful place to stay. Our room was so beautiful with intricate design. We had a large balcony and could hear the rushing water. Room was incredibly spacious and could have fit more people, such as a small family. The location was perfect - right in the center of town and on path to ski slopes. The inn keeper is so kind and helpful. Loved the onsen located in the hotel, which was really convenient for times we didn’t feel up to going to the public ones around town (which are wonderful as well). We are so glad we stayed here. Don’t miss this charming spot! Good for couples, friends, or families.

Large clean comfortable rooms. Staff were lovely. In the village and a short walk to the ski resort. Large dying room for all your wet gear.

“Lovely wooden Japanese guest house with very helpful and attentive staff”

Lovely wooden Japanese guest house - oozing a feeling of Japanese history - located in a great part of town with easy access to the ski runs and shops - clean and basic traditional Japanese rooms - with its own small guest house onsen on the ground floor - managed by a delightful family, that go out of their way to make you feel at home and to offer you assistance whatever the request. Simple but delicious Japanese breakfast in traditional setting. A hidden gem of authentic Japan. Will go back...

“Lovely lady runs this great traditional inn. Was super clean in a great location. We loved our stay.”
