Featuring 10 uniquely designed hot spring baths, Shosenkaku Kagetsu provides Japanese-style accommodation just a 5-minute walk from JR Echigo Yuzawa Train Station. It provides massage service and free Wi-Fi in public areas. Staff and services are top notch! I was one of the best stays in Japan so far. The structure is relatively simple, but the service is so good that we felt very welcomed after our skiing trip.

The ryokan will provide guests with air-conditioned units with a tatami, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a bidet. Some units have a private entrance. At the ryokan, each unit includes bed linen and towels. We have stayed at many onsens around Japan over the years but this place is the very best of any we have stayed! It is a historic building that has 200 + years of history. Even the Japanese emperor stayed here a long time ago. On arrival the building looks a bit old but you quickly learn that it is nothing to be concerned about. Staff members, both old and young are exceptional and carry on the traditions of Japanese hospitality. The food, both breakfast and dinner was exceptional. Great variety of traditional Japanese cuisines. Every meal different items (except rice of course :>) . The natural spring hot tub just outside the room was very spacious. Temperature is adjustable by yourself. Truly a great place to spend 3 nights or more. Neighborhood walking also pleasant.

Offering mountain views, Sasakura onsen Ryuunso in Itoigawa provides accommodation and an open-air bath. A hot spring bath is available for guests, along with a public bath. The ryokan also offers free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. It was a lovely stay, place is well maintained although built in the 80s or 90s so furnishing represents that era. Onsen was lovely with different options and the water temperature was quite hot. Its an elaborate traditional japanese breakfast spread with lots of tasty dishes. I would recommend the place and you feel very relaxed after the onsen and they provide lots of little snacks and ice-cream which was a bonus with the kids. It is quite off the main road and the onsen itself is the destination.

A recently renovated ryokan in Tokamachi and within 38 km of Gala Yuzawa Snow Resort, Sake Hotel Tamakiya has an open-air bath, comfortable allergy-free rooms and free WiFi. The property features mountain and river views, and is 36 km from Maiko Snow Resort. There is a restaurant serving French cuisine, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station.

Guests at the ryokan can enjoy an Asian breakfast. The ryokan is located in a geothermal area, with a number of hot springs nearby for guests to relax in. The service when we arrived was absolutely stellar, on top of the amazing hospitality shown Yukiko-san asked about our itinerary and provided us with additional preparatory information which was an absolute lifesaver after the long drive! When we went into our room we found our coats already hung up and its these little things that make the service just so impressive. I also had to wake up the poor staff at around 12AM because we wanted to drive to a konbini nearby, but he was so helpful about it. The room itself was extremely luxurious, warm and comfortable. Everything was extremely clean and well-kept, and my favourite thing was the open-air bath which we were able to enjoy multiple times. The dinner was absolutely top-notch and extremely good value for what was paid. The ingredients were fresh and quality, but the culinary skill applied was nothing short of perfection. One of best meals I've had in Japan and I come very often.

Rankeisou provides a hot spring bath and free private parking, and is within 33 km of Yukyuzan Park and 33 km of Yukyuzan Small Animal Zoo. A public bath is available for guests, along with an open-air bath. The ryokan features a hot tub and a lift. ​We absolutely loved our spacious, beautiful, riverfront room. The interior design, with the beautiful art and fresh flowers everywhere, created a truly special atmosphere. We adored the magical garden and the four different onsens, all of which included a rotenburo (open-air bath). ​The personalized service and attention to every detail made our stay perfect. A huge bonus was the massage from the specialist expert—he was truly remarkable. The meals were also simply the best of their kind—an unforgettable culinary experience
