Steaming mineral waters flow through the vibrant Yubatake, where you can watch locals stir the hot spring water with wooden paddles. Soak in therapeutic outdoor baths at Sainokawara Park, then hit the slopes at Kusatsu Onsen Ski Resort when snow blankets the mountains.
Great location, just a short walk from Nagano Station and easy to find. It's on the same road that leads to Zenkoji Temple. For a two-night stay this met my expectations. Facilities were clean and tidy. I also had the chance to dine in at their Mash Cafe - it was a nice, cozy ambiance and the food and drinks were delicious. Staff both at check-in counter and cafe were very friendly.
