Ryokan i Minobu

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.

The host was very friendly, kind and helpful. Exceptional experience during evening and morning prays. Authentic and spacious interior. You could experience a real monk daily routine.

This is a special place for anyone looking for a traditional stay in picturesque surroundings amongst Buddhist temples, nature trails and mountain views. The personnel went up and above to help us accommodate. Even though it was a bit chilly in December there was a heater in the room and the futon-bed was super-comfortable & warm. The vegetarian kaiseki dinner was served beautifully and well worth its price.

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
