Tenjin Lodge, hotel in Minakami

Surrounded by lush mountains in Minakami, Tenjin Lodge is just a 5-minute walk from Tenjindaira Snow Resort Ropeway and JR Doai Station.

The lodge manager is a super chill dude,despite arriving very late, he managed to cook me up a nice dinner. The lodge can be reachable via Joetsu JR if you get off at 土合駅 Doai station, and if would more than ideal if you can drive. Be wary of that the doai station has a long underground tunnel that would take you 8 minutes even if run down stairs.

Nakaya Ryokan, hotel in Minakami

25 miles from Naeba Ski Resort, Nakaya Ryokan offers 3-star accommodations in the Yubiso Onsen district of Minakami.

Wow! It was fantastic. The staff were lovely. We got to choose from a variety of patterns of yakata (robes) which was really special. The room (with an ensuite toilet and sink!) was massive. We were provided with 5 futons so we could pile them on top of each other, great for westerners used to softer beds. This made it comfortable. The homemade tiramisu we ordered on arrival was so tasty. The cup challenge for free juice was fun. And best of all, the private onsen experience! We booked 2 time slots (as it was quiet), one in the stone bath and one in the wooden bath. We loved both, but the stone bath was nicest.

Kinseikan Seseragi, hotel in Minakami

Kinseikan offers a free transfer service from Minakami Station, a 10-minute drive away. It features 4 public hot spring baths and offers Japanese-style rooms which include breakfast and dinner.

I really appreciated the staff friendly and took us take a walk to a shrine. That gave us an activity. The onsens were so good. Especially the dinner was so delicious and a lot to eat including beef, scallops and fish. I really like the food also provided with special sauces with them. I really appreciate the work of chefs. The room was so big and clean, with a window with trees pretty like a photo. They also so nice to offer drive me to my next hotel close by, service is excellent.

    Amazing picturesque location!

    Amazing picturesque location! Mineral water was natural and wonderful. Be prepared to sleep on a futon on the floor, but other than that very comfortable. People are very nice anyways in Japan, but the staff here was particularly helpful and accommodating. Free shuttle bus from Jomo-Kogen was a real plus which enabled us to get there from Tokyo via Shinkansen. Wish we could have stayed longer!

    Thank you super nice lady at the front desk who greeting me upon arrival and during all my stay which make me feel welcome. The mountain view of the outdoor onsen, the snow falling down, was incredible. Very good food quality and hospitality of serving staff. Disliked · No access to snow area in the hotel

    Great place for skiing.

    Great place for skiing. We tried Houdaigi Ski area and Minakami kogen200 ski resort. Both were excellent. Houdaigi is just a ski area with a restaurant and gift shops. The ski slopes are good. Minakami kogen200 is a hotel with attached ski area, which makes it a ski resort I guess. It's hard to find vegetarian or vegan food in these areas though.

    Very old town, many of the restaurants and shops were closed - probably because of COVID-19. The nature is truly beautiful there, huge mountains, lots of natural water and flowers. There are also many hiking trails that can be a bit tricky to find but it's definitely worth it to do some research about the area.

    Self driving is a proper way to Minakami, especially during driving to the onsen. Both sides of the road, you can view the forest and trees covered with whitish snow and natural stream and dams in it. No need to hurry when you drive and you can take a photograph anytime during the journey.

    An onsen town at the base of the Japan Alps.

    An onsen town at the base of the Japan Alps. A slow town that's a little run down thanks to overdevelopment during the bubble era. However, it feels like its making a comeback, with a thriving adventure activity scene and community, as well as cheap, good quality accommodation. There's even a craft beer bar and a good quality pizza joint. Access is very good, with a bullet train station nearby and frequent buses offering access to nearby nature and activities. Give it a few years and a bit of love and it will be a thriving destination.

    One of the best onsen experiences I’ve had. Location was great, up in the mountains with gorgeous scenery from window and bath. Staff were exceptional. They were very welcoming and helpful. Picked us up from and to Minakami station. Did very well to accommodate and communicate with us even though we didn’t speak Japanese. Food was beyond amazing, very fresh and high quality. Room was very spacious with comfy beds and private bathroom. Overall amazing experience down to every aspect. Will gladly stay again!

    The location was excellent - deep in the mountains of Gunma. I chose this onsen because I wanted to stay in a remote location off the beaten path. The ambiance of the inn is incredible, and the baths are exceptional. This inn felt like a functioning inn from the past - it is rustic, shows signs of wear, and was cold inside in winter due to lack of insulation. It felt like an authentic inn from the past. That said, these rustic qualities are not for everyone.

    the outdoor onsen was so beautiful! it was in the summer so it was all green but it was still very nice. the room was big and spacious. and i love that we could enjoy the onsen with our friends of different gender with the cover ups. it also helped to hide our small tattoos so that we can go into the onsen.

    Wonderful staff with an attention to customer service. The room exceeded our expectations and the private onsen in the room was lovely. If you want a quiet and relaxing onsen getaway where your needs are taken care of for a night or two, this is a great spot. Food was good and felt locally inspired.

    We were worried a ryokan in the middle of nowhere had no one who could speak english but we were pleasantly surprised at the lady manager’s proficiency and she was excellent in communicating in english. The private onsen was incredible and so were the public baths.
