"ドミトリーで予約しましたが客が少なかったこともあって個室にしていただきました。スタッフ(オーナー？)の対応はとても良かったです。宿は周辺にコンビニ等はないのでちょっと不便を感じました。部屋にはTVがなかったのですがフリーWIFIがあったのでネットで見ることができたのは良かった。お風呂は近くの道の駅で利用できます、これがなかなか良かった。食堂は近くにありますが、車があれば(私は自転車でした)少し遠出をしたほうがいいですね。"

YUTORIA RESORT HIDATAKAYAMA

8/10 Good

"Was a really good hotel however not near the bus station so be prepared to walk or get local bus."

Nunoya Ryokan

10/10 Excellent

"It was a beautiful place to stay with a lovely room and a modern bathroom attached. The old style was really beautiful with the dark wood. The staff were so friendly and helpful. We stayed 4 nights and used it as a base for Kamikochi and the wasabi farm and cycle in Azumino as well as the Castle in Matsumoto itself."

Onsen Lodge Watari

10/10 Excellent

"This place had the feel of a "best-kept-secret"; gem-of-a-find type place. Everything about staying there was fascinating. As the management, to their credit, explicitly warns on their listings, the structure is old and rustic. But this wasn't a deterrent in any way, it adds to the charm and they do an excellent job keeping it clean, well maintained and accommodating. As a westerner looking to explore some backwaters parts of Japan and stay in a traditional Onsen ryokan that is not a tourist trap, this was the perfect best-of-both-worlds fit. The manager spoke good English and was helpful so that there was no confusion or culture shock, but none of the authenticity was compromised. I would certainly stay there again, even go out of my way again - drive up to the mountains - in order to stay there if overnighting en route to or from Tokyo southward."

Iroha Grand Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Personnel courtois et très serviable. On nous a grandement aidé pour l’envoi de nos bagages en plus de nous aider à régler un problème de réservation à un autre hôtel. Le jeune homme à l’accueil a été très patient, souriant et avenant. Nous avons bien apprécié la crème glacée offerte en fin de soirée. Merci pour l’accueil chaleureux."
