Suzaka Station × Recommended Accommodation For Autumn DatesRecommended Hotel·Ryokan

Opened on September 2, 2007. Named “Masuichi Kyakuden” from the owner’s wish: “We would have loved to welcome you into our own home…”. Designed by architect John Morford—who also designed “Kurabu” and the main store of Masuichi Ichimura Sake Brewery—this Accommodation is his vision of where he would want to stay when visiting Obuse. Centered around three earthen storehouses relocated from a long-established sugar wholesaler in Nagano, it comprises seven wooden buildings, with interiors fully furnished in Western style.

A serene Onsen Ryokan, "Kasenen Senjin Onsen Iwa no Yu," nestled in the mountains of Suzaka City, Nagano Prefecture. A mystical place where you can experience the beauty of the changing seasons. The secret to its many repeat visitors lies in the philosophy of hosting travelers while the hosts themselves continue their journey of life, deepening their craft. Every aspect, from cuisine to design to hospitality, cherishes the connections between people. Some things remain unchanged through time, while others evolve with the times—all for the sake of people. Come and rejuvenate your mind and body at this one-of-a-kind, special retreat.

Both a 140-year-old traditional Japanese house and a Western-style building rich in Meiji-era Western culture are available for exclusive use. We hope you will experience the beauty of Japanese living that has continued for over a century and the richness of life in Shinshu Suzaka. In your Room, we provide seasonal fruits from Suzaka, the "Fruit Kingdom." During your stay, enjoy beverages such as plum juice made from Shirafuji plums, as well as local sake, craft beer, and regional wines. For breakfast, savor rare sun-dried rice grown locally, which has been highly praised as an exquisite white rice. The grounds, enclosed by walls, are enveloped in tranquility at night. Enjoy moments of stillness as if you have traveled back in time to the Meiji era.
