Amazing traditional Japanese experience
Posted 25 Dec 2016If, like me, you had not done your research properly and have no real clue what a 'shared bathroom' means in Japanese context, it might come as a slight culture shock to find out it means complete communal sharing of shower stalls with no privacy partitions. However all the other ryokans are the same even at much higher prices. Nozaru offers the same facilities and experience at a much more reasonable price and after I got over my inhibitions, taking a good hot soak in the onsen after a cold day out in the snow became a much looked forward to activity. You enter a changing room with baskets to put your stuff, strip down and enter the bathhouse, sit at a stall and shower before dipping yourself in the onsen. Take note of cleaning timings between 9am to 4.30pm when they close the bathhouse, that means the showers are closed as well. Great place located near the monkey park. (Take note the forest trail is closed during winter and you must take a bus to the other walking trail at Kanbayashi)

Serenity
Posted 15 Dec 2016 on HotelsHuge room for just two of us and great for just sleeping and relaxing on Tatami floor. Even stains on the Shoji screen adds a character to this old Ryokan. No unnecessary services that comes with hotel stays are provided and quite refreshing when you are used to over-catering. The lady owner was very pleasant.
Good on you! I wish I had more time to chat with her. The only draw back was the smell from the oil heater in the room.

いい温泉。
Posted 27 Nov 2017 on Hotelsチェックイン時にはフロントに誰もおらず不安であったがメモを用意していてくれてそのまま部屋に入ることができた。温泉は熱いのだが源泉だからか・・・。勝手に水道で水温の調整を行い入浴。水質はなかなか良く気に入った。湯治として数泊したいかも。チェックイン後は女将の火打石での見送り。（渋い）食堂も周辺にあり、なかなか良かった。
