We are very grateful for the willingness and authenticity of Ken, the host priest, who made our experience there, not only comfortable and pleasant but also enriching by teaching us with the best of intentions something about his Buddhist practice, the temples, and their traditions. Truly moving!

It was fantastic! We were given a vegan dinner and breakfast and the staff was very careful to remember our dietary restrictions. Our private chalet was super comfortable. The staff were very helpful and kind. It was a wonderful experience.

This onsen was nothing short of magical. The rooms were very traditional and incredibly charming. The food was exquisite and plentiful. We were able to completely immerse ourselves into Japanese tradition from the setting, the robes we got to wear, the sandals, and the private onsen available to be reserved. It was incredibly beautiful and we couldn't recommend it more.

It was hard to get to but WORTH IT! I wish we had reserved for a longer stay. Staff was excellent. Hotel was pretty well maintained and both onsens had incredible views. Both meals were absolutely amazing and so delicious.

The location was very convenient! The aircon in the room worked well. The view of Mt. Fuji from the corner room was stunning! Room was spacious by Japanese business hotel standards.

This is one of the most special stays me and my family have ever made at an accommodation. The host family makes the stay amazing giving insight to what it is like to live at a temple.
Experience culture authentically with a stay at these traditional Japanese-style accommodations. Sleep on the floor (on a futon roll) in a room furnished with tatami flooring and sliding doors. Guests can often expect access to a communal bath, plus a complimentary Japanese garment called a yukata.
Clean, spacious, excellent service with big smiles and open heart, the best food at diner and breakfast, very interesting temple and a nice tour at it. The team made their best to make us comfortable, happy and satisfied even on Japanese standards. Nice simple Onsen.
The rooms are huge and with a wonderful garden view. The dinner was big, food was good, however pricy for what it is. Can book a timeslot to go to onsen privately and attend the morning prayers. Also a lot ot activities are available, but most of them besides kimono fitting, need to book in advance. A lot of parking space.
Wonderful stay at this temple, outside of time. My room was spacious and very beautiful, right next to the prayer room of the temple. The futon was comfortable and the food really good both at dinner and breakfast.
The priest welcomed me and walked me to the tomb of the master of Minobu, and also helped me to explain how to participate in the morning prayers at the main hall. I wish I could have stayed there for a few days.
Great experience of Japanese onsen, delicious dinner and breakasft buffet, great outdoor onsen, traditional rooms, not crowded. Ice cresm for free, mochi making and happy hour with footbath included. Lots to enjoy!
As an European we loved Shimobe Hotel. We visited hotel to feel like Japanese people during vacation, and it was brilliant. We could dip our feet in hot water watching koi fish pool, we were invited to mash rice to make rice cakes during evening animations, and there is beautiful stone outdoor onsen. Everything was far beyond our expectations, and I recommend Shimobe Hotel to everyone seeking calmness, relax and friendly atmosphere in traditional Japanese style
Amazing place with a delicious and outstanding dinner !
We really enjoyed our stay and the staff was extremely friendly ! We could also enjoy the Japanese onsen by reserving a time slot, which was very convenient.
If you want to live a comfy and authentic experience, I would strongly advise for Shukubo Kakurinbo :)
wonderful Japanese Ryokan, welcoming, we felt transported to the well-being that this place brings you for the onsen you can enter with tattoos and as a couple, because they put your name in a time slot and you are alone inside.
It's tempting to rate this place higher bcz staff is nice, but that's not everything. The hotel itself is mediocre at best. Food is okay, nothing to write home about. Close to a beautiful Buddhist monastery, and has a nice zen garden. I have stayed at other ryokans for much less $ and much better facilities.
Beautiful place! Huge clean rooms. Comfortable futons. Closness to the teples and ability to take part in morning sutra singing. Staff speaks English. The dinner and the breakfast was tasty, beautifully plated, very interesting as well with a chance to try sth completely new (yuba chips!). Apart from all that - you can learn something about the culture as well, as they prepared a little festival experience for us.
