Shibukawa Hotels with Parking

Stayed for 2 nights in early Dec 2024. Booked the mountain view twin room with cypress bath which comes with both dinner and breakfast. The ryokan styled hotel is located diagonally opposite from the shibukawa bus stop and about 5 mins walk (turn right from the hotel) to the Ikaho stone steps around the mid section of the steps. The hotel is old ryokan style but well maintained and does not see much wear and tear. The lobby which is on the 3rd floor (ground level) is big. No shoes allowed in the hotel, guests have to deposit their shoes at the entrance. Staff were all friendly and polite though not all can speak well in English. They do go much more to make you feel at home. Yutaka is provided at the lobby. My room which is located on the 4th floor corner is considered big. Old styled ryokan kind of design but with western bed. Though the room is laid with tatami on the floor but can still hear people walking if they area heavy or run. Corridor noise does filter in as well but muffled. Unblocked view of the mountain as the hotel sits on an elevated hill. I would recommend to stay with mountain view. The cypress bath can fit 2 person but takes a while to fill, I rather go to the public onsen. Besides the usual amenities, they even provide face wash, face moisturiser, etc in the room. Safe box is provided in the room as well. Wifi seems weak. No place in the bathroom however to hang your clothes or towel. There is an indoor onsen on the first floor and an outdoor one on the 8th floor. The onsen are gender separated. They rotate the male and female onsen on the first floor though both has the same look and facilities. The onsen on the 8th floor has a nice view of the city but no shower facilities. There is a massage chair on the first floor as well. Breakfast and dinner are served on the 2nd floor. I would not say that this is the best, but definitely delicious and sufficient. Check in at 3 pm and check out at 10am which I find a bit too early. Hope they can consider to extend. Overall I would recommend this place to stay if you are coming to ikaho.

Very clean and tidy. Room as pictured. Staff lovely... thank goodness for google translate. Private hot pools great...large. You had to get in quick as no booking - but good sysyem on co.outer to see when free. I American breakfast good (except tomato sauce ON tge omelette). Omelette was light and fluffy. Only about 10 minutes walk to the steps.

I booked a Japanese-style room with a view of Ikaho Ishidan Street outside the window. The hotel's environment, service, and food for one night and two meals were also very delicious. The aperitif was brewed by the hotel itself. It can be seen that a lot of thought has been put into running the hotel well. It is very warm and my family and children are extremely satisfied. The private bath provided by the Japanese-style room is also very comfortable and perfect.

Although the hotel has no special appearance, the internal rooms are great. The large glass windows can see Chicheng Mountain and Yuanming Mountain, and you can see great scenery when you get up early. It is also very close to Shiduan Street, there is a shuttle bus, you can also walk there. Breakfast and dinner are also delicious, kaiseki cuisine level. Service is excellent, it is the best service I have traveled so many times in Japan.

Kinchoro is the more exclusive wing of Fuikuichi. The rooms come sight private onsen and it’s similar to most 10 tatami rooms. The service from the staff is good. They are almost invisible when you don’t need them but will magically appear when you need help, during meal times and check in/out time. The food unfortunately seem to be so so only. I didn’t find it spectacular, and in fact fringing on being a bit too inventive. Otherwise, all okay.

The inn is located at the highest point of the stone steps of Ikabo Onsen, and the room offers a view of the scenery down the mountain. Although old, but still well maintained, staff service attitude is good, the lobby has free coffee, tea and other drinks. It's a pity that I went to the wrong open-air hot spring because I didn't listen to the staff's introduction.

The hotel is located in the highest location of Yixiangbao Street, which is very convenient when going out. The hotel room is Japanese-style tatami, the mattress is very thick and comfortable, and you will not feel back pain after sleeping. The room space is also very large, with a sofa and dining area, and there is no feeling of cramped at all. The hotel staff was very friendly and saw us as non-local, and a foreign staff member who was good at English took the initiative to help. Knowing that we did not buy the hotel restaurant dinner, we will introduce the nearby restaurant, thanks to her introduction, we found an izakaya nearby, the food standard is also very high. The hot springs are divided into men and women, and will be exchanged at specific times so that customers can enjoy all the hot springs. The hot springs are divided into indoor and open air, all very comfortable. The whole hotel is very large and the decoration is Japanese style. If you go to Yixiangbao next time, you will also choose Fuyi again. This hotel with a high CP value.

Staff & food was excellent. A very good experience staying in their Japanese style room. Special thanks to Ann & Heng for going above & beyond to make our stay memorable. Thank you!

The staff is kind and polite. I realized the service. I arrived a lot early, but I was able to park my luggage and it was a little far from the hotel.

In the more affordable hotel in Yixiangbao, the price is not expensive, but the service is very thoughtful. If someone wants to book this hotel, you can tell him your itinerary by email. What time does the jr bus arrive? Basically, there will be a hotel bus to pick you up. The hotel is a time-honored brand, although the facilities are a bit old, but relatively complete, the front desk, the service staff are older, but very careful. Also very polite. Dinner default barbecue, there are long-foot crabs, burdocks, and big choices. All three are very good. It is recommended that the burdock is a local famous beef, very delicious. On the first night, because of the first day of the summer vacation, I had two stays with my wife. So the hot spring opened a female soup, which is equivalent to the private soup. I soaked the female soup and male soup for two days. The open-air environment of men and women's soup is very good, the supporting after-bath facilities are armed to the teeth, and the whole body is from care to feet. This price is really good to have such an affordable public hot spring. If you go to the top of the famous mountain cable car last autumn, you must go to the front desk to get a promotional leaflet with coupons on it. Shanyang Hotel gave me a home away from home service. When I stayed in and left, the service was very good and very warm. If I go to Yixiangbao next time, I will continue to choose to stay.
