An Onsen Property registered as a tangible cultural property, highlighting the craftsmanship and creativity of palace carpenters.

A property designated as a tangible cultural asset, built in Showa 13. Each room, crafted by palace carpenters showcasing their skills, exudes creativity and playfulness. The decorative windows and transoms, executed with precise techniques, create a precious traditional Japanese-style room. Among the main building, designated as a national tangible cultural asset, the third floor features specially designed rooms worth seeing. This property is highly recommended for those interested in classic Japanese architecture.

  • The service was attentive and excellent from check-in to dining. Detailed explanations were provided throughout the accommodation, offering a sense of history everywhere. The quality of the hot spring water was exceptional and rare to find elsewhere. I would love to visit again in a different season.

  • In February, when I visited Matsunoyama, it was covered in heavy snow, and the accommodation seemed buried in it. Due to the Joetsu Line being suspended by heavy snowfall, I was anxious about whether I could reach Muikamachi by bus, but I managed to get there and experienced the deep snow as expected. The medicinal bath after a long journey was amazing; its light green water warmed my chilled body thoroughly—it was worth staying. The wooden three-story architecture I had been looking forward to featured intricate details, snowy views from the room, and large icicles—truly unique to winter. I might visit again in a season without snow to see the entire building more clearly.

Example of a guest room

A Room filled with the creativity and playful spirit of palace carpenters.

The Rooms in the main building were constructed by palace carpenters invited from Jōshū Shibukawa by the first owner, each responsible for one Room, competing in skill and design.

Onsen

Soak in the light green "Mirror Bath" at the renowned medicinal Matsunoyama Onsen.

Matsunoyama Onsen is one of Japan's three major medicinal hot springs, alongside Kusatsu Onsen and Arima Onsen. Its water quality is approximately 15 times the standard value for hot springs. With a high salt concentration, the sodium salt pack effect warms the body from the core and helps retain heat.

Meal example

Spring mountain vegetables, autumn mushrooms. Natural ingredients and local cuisine.

We offer dishes that cherish local ingredients, such as the sweet mountain vegetables grown in the heavy snowfall region of Matsunoyama.
