I can not more highly recommend Shirouma So!
The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The hotel was very comfortable and perfectly situated near the bus terminal, Happo One, and restaurants. The onsen was the perfect way to finish a day on the slopes. The food was excellent and there was plenty of variety - while breakfast is set, it is different every day.
I would definitely stay here again!

Great hotel, service, a place to discover!
Very nicely decorated hotel. Timeless Japanese style but freshly decorated. Very modern feeling. Staff is very kind and provide excellent level of attention without being intrusive. Onsen is a little bit small but very good. Very good service provided by the owner all along our stay. Breakfast was very good and had a good variety of food offered. Staff speaks good English and was kind to call before our arrival to verify check in time and if anything was needed. Hakuba area is lovely and the hotel has a great view on the moutain. Room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated. Recommending this hotel to anyone!.

Great family style Japanese Ryokan
Really nice Ryokan. Great services from the owner, GM to all staff. 5 minutes walk to Happo-one and easy access to shuttle buses to other ski resorts. Only if there could be on open air onsen it will be perfect.

Traditional Ryokan - family owned
This was our first trip to Japan and our first time staying in a traditional Japanese Ryokan. We will be back. Loved it.
It's family-owned - Toshi and his family were very welcoming, spoke good English, had loads of local knowledge to help us out and had traditional breakfasts and dinners on offer (cooked by Toshi's mother, who comes out and greets everyone at meal time - FYI: you need to book the day before for dinners).
We were warm, comfortable (futons were fairly firm but we slept pretty well!), and well looked after. Location is great. Can't wait to come back and stay for longer.

纯日式风格的酒店,配合无微不至的服务,给我们留下了美好的回忆。
酒店的2个特点让人非常难忘:
1、纯日式风格:房间、寝具、温泉、早/晚餐、日式服装;
2、为住客提供了无微不至的服务:当我们错过了免费班车去滑雪学校时二话没说派专车送我们过去;临走时由于赶时间去hoppo bus terminal搭急行bus酒店再次送我们去车站;遗落了物品在房间,酒店帮我们寄送。。
下次去长野还会选择这个酒店,并把它推荐给我们的朋友们。

Very nice ryokan
Very friendly and helpful staff, better English than I expected. More or less traditional ryokan, with tatami floors. The room is spacious during the day when the futons are rolled up (the staff does that for you), and the futons are very comfortable to sleep on. Breakfast included in the price of the room was excellent. Dinner was extra, but not expensive--about $25 for a first-class, elegant Japanese dinner.
The staff were very helpful, even picking us up at the bus terminal (much appreciated after a 16-hour journey) and dropping us off at the train station. Everything about this ryokan is first class, and we would stay again any time.

Memorable stay
We were made to feel like 6 star guests. Proximity to ski facilities was just 10 mins walk away. Kaiseke and breakfast was way above average. Since there is little else to do but ski and stay in the hotel, it made a huge difference that it was marvellous. I will make a trip back next time I'm in Japan.

Hot springs traditonal hotel super comfortable
Absolutely perfect!!! We loved this place. The innkeeper's are super nice and helpful. Very humble family. I was worried about sleeping on the tatami and mats on the floor, it turned out to me more comfortable than regular beds and mattresses. We slept very well. Hot springs bathhouse inside hotel was super nice, luxurious and clean. Love it! Highly recommend

One of the best hotel experiences I have ever had.
This is a FANTASTIC hotel, we stayed for just 2 nights, but wished we could have stayed longer. I don't usually rate hotels on any site, actually this is my first ever rating. But it deserves a 5 star rating. Very helpful, delicious food, warm cosy room, super clean, all in all a top place.
