About a 5-minute walk to Matsumoto Castle. A long-established inn founded in 1887, where traditional folk crafts furniture creates a charming atmosphere.

Just a 5-minute walk to the National Treasure - Matsumoto Castle, Matsumoto Hotel Kagetsu, an established hotel founded in Meiji 20, was rebranded and reopened on April 5, 2016, with the concept of "Folk Art Philosophy - Memories of Matsumoto's Daily Life." The restaurant offers course meals based on the concept of "Nagano Terroir." Learning from the spirit of "beauty through reliance" rooted in the folk art city of Matsumoto, the hotel has been reborn as a simple and practical place to stay.

  • With its folk-style furniture and wood-accented interior, it feels very calm and relaxing. We also tried dinner for the first time on this trip, and we were completely satisfied with both the presentation and the quality of the meal.

  • Thank you first of all for your warm consideration regarding wheelchair use. This was a wonderful Hotel with 140 years of tradition and prestige, and a calm, refined atmosphere. After racing through the historic battlefield of Sekigahara, traveling from the Nagara River in Gifu to Gujo Hachiman, then on to Takayama and over the Nomugi Pass, it was truly the perfect Hotel to soothe both body and mind. The meal after a relaxing rest was also excellent and very delicious. However, it was a bit crowded as it was the weekend, which was disappointing. Next time, I would like to visit on a quiet weekday.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Folk Art
The folk art spirit rooted in the land of Matsumoto

"Folk crafts" are not artworks created by specific artists, but rather everyday items made for practical use, refined over time to suit their purpose. The beauty of folk crafts lies in their unassuming charm. It is the radiance polished through continuous use in daily life. It is the beauty of utility, passed down and honed by generations of nameless artisans. We believe that the true essence of beauty can be found in the everyday aesthetics of folk crafts. In Matsumoto, where "Matsumoto Folk Craft Furniture" has been nurtured, the spirit of folk crafts continues to thrive, both in the past and present. At Matsumoto Hotel Kagetsu, we welcome our guests as a Hotel that reflects the spirit of folk crafts, much like the beauty found in the layers of daily life in this region.

Nameless objects refined through an unbroken, long history. True beauty that exists as it should. Simple yet full of humanity, natural like flowing water, becoming more familiar with use. Time to be as you are, naturally. Matsumoto Hotel Kagetsu, a simple and practical hotel.
