越後湯澤旅籠井仙(Echigo Yuzawa Hatago Isen)

Very convenient location, just next to the train station. Great to book the room with dinner and breakfast. We'll done!!

Super nice and traditional hotel and the staff is very friendly, we stayed in the private onsen room with the nice view ( facing the station ). Very close to the Yuzawa station . Breakfast is very good . Must visit again .

This place was a very different experience to all the fancy hotels in the larger cities. Firstly, it was a humble looking place that did not look obviously like a place of accommodation from the outside. As soon as we entered late in the evening, the kind receptionist advised us to remove our shoes and place it inside lockers with our own wooden key. We then sat down on a sofa and used a tablet to record our details and pay for the accommodation. We were then asked to choose some samue (a cotton set of top tied with 2 strings around the sides and a pair of pants with a drawstring) and a nemaki (tubular short-sleeved robe with an obi or cotton belt). There was no bathroom in our room and only a toilet and sink. The futon beds and the tatami mats provided a great traditional Japanese inn experience. We had a traditional Japanese teishoku meal with a variety of healthy foods such as grilled fish, tofu, red beans, rice, Japanese pickles and other condiments not commonly found outside of Japan. I also tried their own plum liqueur in 3 shot glasses (from weakest to strongest) which was really good! We had our shower and then soak in the 50 degree onsen (separated into male and female) which was a great experience. The next morning we were treated to a three course breakfast with traditional Japanese foods again. Unfortunately as we were skiing, we had to leave early and could not stay more than one night to experience the wonders of this charming little ryoban. Highly recommended for travellers wanting an authentic, traditional Japanese accommodation and culinary experience that you may not necessarily find in the large cities.

This ryokan is located across the street from the JR station in Echigo Yuzawa, so it is very convenient to the transportation hub of the area and to many of the local restaurants. The Japanese and Western breakfasts were delicious and hearty, the room was big, clean, and comfortable, and the private outdoor rotemboro was a delight (the 4:30AM soak in the rotemboro was very invigorating and wonderful)! Whether or not you are in the area for skiing, Hantago Isen is the place to stay in Echigo Yuzawa!

宿の雰囲気もダイニングでの和食のコースも大変満足、と言うより感動もの（近くだったら頻繁に食べに訪れたい）でした。またアレルギーにも細やかに対応頂けたことに感謝ですか 観光やらハイキングの拠点としても便利なロケーションです。 宿が駅前の通りに面しているので仕方ないのですが、部屋付きの露天風呂からは外は観れず（見られることも無いことの裏返しですが）また露天風呂にら新幹線のホームのアナウスが聞こえて来る（部屋は防音対策があり影響無し）のが残念。 何処も変わらず人手不足のようで従業員には外国人も少なく無く食事の説明が分かりにくい（そして尋ねずらい）ところもありました。日本人の従業員の方々は皆さん丁寧で気持ちよい対応でしたので今後の育成に期待しています。
