Tsunan Station × Accommodation For Enjoying Autumn FlavorsRecommended Hotel·Ryokan

The terraced rice fields and beech forests, along with the lives of people coexisting with nature in the snowy region of Tokamachi, Niigata Prefecture, are referred to as Japan's original landscape. Among them, in the snow-rich Matsunoyama area, "Hinanoyado Chitose" awaits your visit. Here, you can enjoy the Matsunoyama Onsen, one of Japan's three major medicinal hot springs, with open-air baths fed directly from the source. We also prepare local cuisine using delicious rice and mountain vegetables nurtured by snowmelt water to welcome you.

Rooted in the climate and ingredients of Matsunoyama, Niigata, our cuisine is crafted using French and Italian techniques and enjoyed in harmony with carefully selected drinks. Whether you love drinks, are new to them, or want to learn more, we offer you a truly special time.
