Ανακαλύψτε τη διαμονή σας σε Matsumoto

We wanted to treat ourselves for an anniversary so booked in for a night. It is not cheap - we paid SGD 770 for the night, but it was a good experience all the way from check in to check out. The price includes dinner, which was plated beautifully and featured items like lobster sashimi, beef stew and bracken tempura. Breakfast was done buffet style and had both Japanese and Weatern dishes. There are onsens as well. We opted to pay 3000 yen for a private couple onsen for 45 minutes, but there are also public baths on the 4th floor. The bath on the 3rd floor, just off reception, switches between males in the morning and the ladies in the evening. The room was largish and I loved that the yukatas came in a variety of sizes. There is no room clean up till check out, but they do lay futon beds in the room. The room was well appointed and had a great view, small fridge, a safe, and coffee and tea making facilities. There was even a coffee bean grinder. There were ample power points. Wifi was okay though it did drop now and then. There are separate toilet and shower rooms. There is a souvenir cum general store in the lobby where you can even buy condensed milk ice cream. Staff are friendly and efficient. They do have a free shuttle bus from 5 pm at the Matsumoto train station to the hotel, and one the following morning at 9 am and 10 am back to the station.

This Hotel is only a 5 minute walk to the main station making it ideal for travellers using public transport. Its quite a modern hotel with well furnished rooms although probably better suited for single occupancy as the bed is against the wall making a difficult exit for one of you during the night. If you stay less than 3 nights there isnt a maid service but you leave your dirty towels and rubbish outside your room in the morning and clean towels are there upon your return later in the day, initially we thought it a bit odd but it meant we didn’t have to tidy our room before the cleaners came in lol. There is a coffee service in reception in the mornings and the hotel does provide complimentary items i.e. hair bobbles, razor etc. We were room only here so cant comment on the food.

This hotel was booked as part of tour of Japan and we were there for only 1 night. As a solo traveller I was allocated a single room which was very small. It did however have a large bed which based on the space available was probably too big for the room. In order to get my case open to just get a small number of items I needed for one night I had to rearrange the chair and table so I could get the case open. The “closet” if you can call it that, was so small it only had 3 hangers and was probably only about 18inches wide right next to the door. I wouldn’t want to stay in this room more than one night. On the basis you pay a single supplement I find it poor that we solo travellers are given such small and inadequate rooms. In addition, as a tour from the UK, hardly anyone spoke English so it was hard to get the staff to understand when something went wrong, like my kettle which wasn’t working. In credit to the Reception staff, once I finally managed to get him to understand the problem he resolved it very quickly. Finally when we went to breakfast at 7.45am they were already full and we had to wait about 10 mins or so, then a number of the breakfast items had run out. There were 2 coach tours in and they didn’t seem to be able to cope or cater for the amount of people there. I did find the staff very friendly and helpful, so it certainly isn’t their fault. I wouldn’t recommend it for solo travellers.

There are two super hotels around Matsumoto station, which is a hotel about 3 minutes walk north of Matsumoto station. The super front desk was usually a good response. No card key and enter the room with a password number. The room is simple and smooth, and the bed is low and wide. Amenities and attached facilities in the room are not a rich hotel with a famous name and nothing is rusty. Breakfast is free and the level is Toyoko in class but it was usually delicious. There was no foreigner in the hotel. There is no public bath here. There are various types of pillows, you can choose what fits, and the sleeping clothes were gowns. The network was free of charge and the wi-hi was available. All of the services and cost performance were high hotels.

It is an inn in Norikura plateau. Unfortunately, the day I stayed, I couldn't see the stars, but the day I saw the stars seems to see many heavenly rivers and meteor showers. There is a twin room with a toilet, but it is basically a joint toilet, but the cleaning is good and it is an at home inn that feels a little caring. It's named guest house, but it's a private room. There is a new building and an old building, and the bath is an old building, but it is a good hot water that enters the best ３ of the hot springs I have stayed in so far in the perfect hot water that cannot be said. I would like to try this hot spring for this price. The stars seem to be great on a good day. The owner seems to be １ years and a half, but the interior of the room feels warm, and he always sits at the receptionist and feels like trying to advise customers on their trip. When looking for an inn, the name ”kamaba” before the renewal is outstanding (the name ”kamaba” in the navigation of the car) is located near the bus stop, but the rental car is convenient. I don't have a meal, so let's buy breakfast before coming. Dinner is recommended by nearby ”Abby Road”. ４ people order ２ items and be careful because it is ample amount. From here, the upper highlands were also convenient. ４ people were cheaper than buses.

The location is actually not good. However, there are restaurants nearby, the neighborhood is quiet, and the scenery is nice, which offsets the bad location.
