Very tradition Japanese hotel. Very home style. I highly recommend include dinner plan. The dishes are amazing. Delicious Japanese food!

Perfecto. Magnífica ubicación. Muy buena atención por parte de los anfitriones. Se respira tradición desde el primer minuto.

It is a great traditional place with an amazing location!

善光寺の中にあるくらいです。 凄い観光に最適です。 0歳児、3歳児の子連れでしたが、スタッフさんが親切で問題なかったです。 駐車場の場所が宿まで歩いて1〜2分です、分かりづらいですが、電話すると来てくださり教えてくれました。

Amazing location with great hospitality. One of the most unique experiences of my life.

I felt like my grandmother was taking care of me. I loved this place, highly recommended.

Séjour agréable, le personnel ne parle pas anglais mais on a réussi à se comprendre. Chambre propre, il y a également un bain chaud homme/femme.

The staff is welcoming and kind, this is a family run business for 6 generations! The half board breakfast and dinner are exceptional, kaiseki style and every dish is presented beautifully. The location is right on the ometesando, lots of foot traffic but quiet. Futons are comfortable. We loved our stay and want to go back!

Lovely stay at a traditional ryokan (at least I think so, it was the only ryokan we stayed at). Great location very close to Zenkoji Temple - this place is within the temple area and was even the Zenkoji Main Hall in the past. We had the dinner one night, which was an impressive feast! But maybe a bit much for my kids.

I just loved the Matsuya Ryokan. It’s run by a lovely couple that were so welcoming and warm to us all the time. The room was spacious, very clean and it gave us the full experience of Japanese living. The dos was small but enough to live the onsen experience too. There was a good coffee machine next to the reception where we had the best coffee in Japan so far. The Expresso that we are so used to in our country. The Ryokan is in the nicest area of Nagano, with all its lovely shops and at a 2 minute walk to the main temple. It was a lovely experience that I would recommend to other travellers.

Fantastic traditional ryokan experience. Lovely friendly staff with good English. Breakfasts and dinner were excellent and different each day. It is an old inn, the bathrooms are small and you’re sleeping on foutons on the floor, so you must accept that’s part of the experience. But everything else is great and the location is absolutely superb, right on the steps leading to the gate and temple. Beautiful, peaceful area at night.

Very nice ryokan to stay. Friendly and helpful staff.

A fantastic traditional ryokan within steps of the Zenkoji Temple. The owners and staff were delightful and we felt as though we were living in a family home. We stayed in room 16 on half board and are so glad we did. There are plenty of places to eat in the area but the food we were served in the ryokan were as good as anything we ate in 3 weeks in Japan. Nagano is a lovely town and a welcome change from Tokyo. Don’t forget to visit the Snow Monkeys - the highlight of our trip.

Situated right next to the Zenkōji temple. Up a slope so if you’re coming with heavy luggage, I would recommend the bus or taxi from Nagano station. Has a nice traditional breakfast option. There is a dinner option too but you’ll need to reserve one day in advance, or at the very least, in the morning at breakfast time. There is a public bath within the building itself but it’s pretty small, however given that it’s a small guest house I don’t think it will matter. You would probably be able to use it whenever you want to. The rooms are cozy and very well appointed. Futon bed is laid out for you, and is taken away when you step down for breakfast so be mindful of that.

Limpieza y amabilidad

Top location for staying at Nagano city, it’s right next to the famous Zenkoji temple. Many good restaurants within walking distance. Guest service is top notch as well.

This is such a beautiful historic property. It’s within the Zenkoji temple area and a fantastic find. We had the Japanese style room. Beds are hard but we are getting used to them. Staff are so lovely. This is a lovely family business. I would love to come here again.

Staff were very helpful and pleasant. Traditional Japanese guesthouse with onsen. Great location near Zenko-ji temple. Good food options nearby. Very safe.

The staff was very friendly and the hotel is located on the same street as one of the main temples in the area. Very convenient.

Very authentic Japanese ryokan experience, authentic and delicious Japanese set meal breakfast, very lovely staff, and great English-speaking staff too, convenient location as it is close to Zenkoji temple and surrounding beautiful areas, also close to the bus-stop where you take the bus to other places such as Togakushi shrine or to Nagano station for the Shinkansen. Price was very reasonable for a ryokan in comparison to other places. Will definitely stay here again if I come back to Nagano (which I think I will as I loved Nagano) and if the price remains good!
