Perfect for those seeking a truly traditional Japanese experience- but keep in mind, it really is very traditional. The food may feel quite extreme for Western tastes, the onsens are relaxing but on the older side, and the staff’s English is limited

Beautiful inn in traditional Japanese style with baths, tatami rooms and futons. Delicious elaborate Japanese breakfast included. The hosts were incredibly accommodating for our dietary restrictions and went out of their way to help recover a lost phone! You may also have dinner at the inn by reservation. It's not in town but is connected by a quick bus to Matsumoto station or a taxi.
