Clean room, excellent staff, large room, high end amenities, great location to visit Matsumoto castle.
The cleanliness and condition of the Japanese style room was excellent with separate entrance, washroom, toilet and 3 tatami areas giving more than ample space for 3 guests.
Breakfast was good and the staff efficient and helpful.
Didn’t try the onsen as just a brief stop
We only stayed in this hotel for 1 night so we could visit Matsumoto Castle and the location was perfect because the hotel was only a 5 mins walk from the castle. The room was clean and the bed and pillows were comfy. I would stay here again for sure.
Such a beautiful place to stay!
Our room was gorgeous, the staff were lovely and always willing to make our stay special.
Absolutely one of the highlights of our trip!
This was a lovely hotel. The room was the biggest we had in our entire Japan holiday and very comfortable. All hotel facilities were excellent and the breakfast buffet was outstanding. Could not fault the experience of staying here in any way.
Very nice hotel with attentive staff
Plus is the laundry machines
Excellent dinner French Japanese fusion
Breakfast was better than expected
Close to Matsumoto castle
Highly recommended and would visit again
Charming property exceptionally clean, special mention of the wonderful onsen, enjoyed our most unusual experience of sleeping in a traditional Japanese room with tatami mats. Our dinner in the restaurant was superb, kudos to the skilled chef! Matsumoto is a lovely town with a slow paced vibe , so different from other Japanese cities.
Historic property, incredibly helpful & friendly staff, very comfortable and clean. The breakfast buffet was great, as well as the attached coffee shop. Onsen was lovely, I have tattoos and emailed the property beforehand to make sure that was fine. Very close to the sights, would recommend!
Lovely olde world hotel with a nice basement bath house. Good breakfast and a great location close to shops, restaurants and the beautiful castle. Pick up from the station at 3pm was a bonus!
I was happy to stay one night at the Matsumoto Hotel in Kagetsu.
Everything was good, but the room smelled like an old hotel.
It has a great location, excellent breakfast and friendly English-speaking staff.
Hotel staff was nice and ambience was great if you like Japanese western decor. 1,000 yen discount voucher given due to on-going facade construction which i thought is a nice gesture. Superb location near Matsumoto castle.
Excellent experience, welcoming, polite, respectful and helpful staff. Room was perfectly clean and very comfortable, with a nice view of the mountains. Location was convenient, being walking distance to many local restaurants, shops, shrines and the castle.
The building itself was bit old, our room had discomfort smell in the bathroom all the time. Nice to have a public bath for relaxing. Buffet style breakfast was very busy, but lots of good selections of Japanese/western style food. I really enjoyed the locally made egg with bonito on rice!
Nice hotel situated in Matsumoto, close to the castle. Excellent welcome and service from staff throughout the trip. Room was comfortable and clean, although a bit old fashioned. Did not manage to try the public baths, but the breakfast was good.
We spent two nights at this hotel in a Japanese style room. We found the room comfortable and spacious. I very much enjoyed the public bath in the hotel and visited AM and PM for a relaxing soak. The hotel is a quirky mix of modern and traditional and we appreciated this.We had a wonderful breakfast buffet each morning in the hotel restaurant and the staff was always gelpful and kind. We found everything very walkable to this hotel. The station, castle, art museum, shopping, restaurants and coffee/tea/sweets are not far. We would definitely stay here again and we really loved the vibe of Motsumoto!
