First time to visit Nozawa Onsen area, Roykan Sakaya is good, surrounding area is nice. Hotel staffs are helpful. We had a great time at the hotel.

It is a hotel with a strong Japanese style, but it is relatively new, not an old house.

The baths were amazing! It's fun to visit the outdoor baths in Nozawa Onsen, but if you want to relax in the water, the baths at the inn were great. They were made of wood, had a nice atmosphere, and were kept clean. The food was also amazing. There was a separate dining room, and we enjoyed our meals in a relaxed atmosphere.

Very nice spot. Incredible Onsen. Perfect location close to Yu road and restaurants. Very big room by Japanese standards. Very helpful staff. Ren spoke very good English. For me the Onsen was the best I also had the best massage of my life from a gentleman named Hideo. Fixed my back.

The basic rooms are pretty sad with the hardest Western-style beds. It was like sleeping on a table - and no, they were not futons. This wasn't a ski hotel, although most guests were here to ski in winter, and it wasn't quite the classic ryokan, caring experience either. Pluses - good, private onsen, close walk to the travellators and the snow, very clean, close to the town which was charming, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Negatives - tiny bathroom, rock-hard western beds, the view of a wall of ice from our third floor room was depressing and made me feel like I was in a bunker. I can see there are great reviews for this place - maybe they are for the more premium rooms?

My husband and I stayed here while snowboarding in Nozawa Onsen for our honeymoon. We absolutely LOVED our stay at Ryokan Sakaya. The staff was so friendly, helping us via email with questions before we arrived and always being available for help during our stay. The location is perfect, easily walkable to the town and the ski resort. We can't wait to stay here again someday!

Second time staying at SAKAYA after a few years, service is still from the heart. This ryokan is super busy and the dates we wanted was full. So we explored another mountain (Myoko) for 3 days before coming to Nozawa. Conveniently located with plenty of restaurants around and Yu-Road is just at the corner. A perfect ski holiday starts here. We find the terrains here more suited to our family than the Akakura onsen ski resort.

Gem in Nozawa. One of the best ryokan in Nozawa. Professional top quality staff. Breakfast and dinner (optional) are served on the second and third floor. English speaking staff available. A showcase of Japanese hospitality. We had the kaiseki dinner and shabu shabu dinner at the ryokan which was excellent. Within the ryokan, there are single sex indoor and outdoor onsen (with sauna facility) and also a private onsen for reservation. The ryokan is in the middle of Nozawa village, with a short main street of shops and many free public onsens. There are a few hot steam buns stores and also multiple craft beer joints. From the ryokan, walk 3-5 minutes up a steep hill to reach the moving walkway up the ski hill. Very convenient. From Nozowa village bus station, there is a free shuttle bus which can bring you to five different ski resorts around town. Ryokan Sakaya is highly recommended and early reservations are necessary
