Sinchon Station × Fun HotelHighly rated for rooms and amenities at Hotel·Ryokan

Since it was the weekend, places around Matsumoto Station were expensive!! I searched for somewhere cheaper even if it was a bit farther away, and this place came up. It was my first time, so the front desk staff explained things to me, but they spoke a bit fast and there were parts I didn’t quite understand. I didn’t eat inside the building—I bought food outside and ate in my Room. There’s a supermarket within walking distance. If you go late, some items are half price, and bottled drinks were cheap too. The baths... there were so many different kinds. After coming down from a hike, I was able to relax and take my time. They also lend out shampoo and other toiletries. However... the lockers for guests are small. The Room has a bed and desk, a TV, and a toilet.

The complimentary tea and snacks, the large public bath, and the late-night snack service (the soba noodles were delicious) were all wonderful. The staff were cheerful and kind, and I would definitely like to stay here again when I visit Matsumoto. Breakfast was also very tasty!

I stayed here the night before my trip to Kamikochi. I arrived a little early, but the staff kindly accommodated me and let me into my Room ahead of time. Thank you very much.

With the Early Bird 60 discount, we were able to stay at a very reasonable price. One hair dryer in the large public bath changing area was broken, so we had to wait for one to become available. The Room and the Facility overall are old, but well maintained and clean. The meals included all-you-can-drink, so we could drink without hesitation, and the food was fairly tasty for the price. However, it was disappointing that the next day’s tennis tournament social gathering had exactly the same dishes. It’s not really suited for a Multiple Night Stay.

The large public bath was clean and very nice.\nWe enjoyed the well-equipped recreational area on the first floor, including table tennis.\nWe were satisfied with the service.

Room: I’d appreciate a mirror at a comfortable height, or a tabletop mirror. Bath: The large hinoki-wood bath was very relaxing. Meals: The selection is minimal, but the breakfast offerings were exactly what I wanted and I was very satisfied. For the DIY fried egg station on the hot plate, it would be helpful to display an estimated cooking time—some guests were going back and forth repeatedly to check doneness. Amenities: Extra items are available at the front desk for you to take in a basket. They also had facial lotion, which was great. Location: Great. Other: There’s a wide variety of manga, and I was happy to reread Slam Dunk for the first time in a while. The building is older and doesn’t have that brand-new feel, but it’s a satisfying Hotel that gets all the important points right. I’d like to stay again. Thank you very much.

We stayed here with a large group in January. First of all, the traditional kura-style building is truly one of a kind. It has been beautifully renovated to suit modern needs while preserving the charm of classic Japanese architecture. It’s even more impressive in person than in photos, and you can really enjoy the building itself—perfect for anyone who loves architecture. The living room feels incredibly open, and even with a big group it never felt cramped. The kitchen was surprisingly spacious, and it was stocked with more than enough cookware and appliances. There was also a great variety of tableware, all stylish, which made cooking even more enjoyable. The dishwasher in particular was large and high-performance, making cleanup easy even for a big group. There are multiple bedrooms as well, so everyone can rest comfortably. This Accommodation is ideal for the purpose of “staying together as a large group and relaxing.” Overall it’s very spacious, so we could spend time there without feeling self-conscious. We only ordered breakfast, but it was simple Japanese food and very delicious. For lunch and dinner we arranged our own meals—buying ingredients at nearby supermarkets (Tsuruya and AEON are conveniently close) and cooking ourselves—and that became part of the fun of the stay. With such well-equipped facilities, this place is especially recommended for those who enjoy cooking. Even though it was cold around New Year’s, the inside was warm and comfortable. The separate hinoki bathhouse was amazing; you heat the indoor bath yourself, but the scent of hinoki wood and the atmosphere were truly relaxing. There is also another bath in the main house (with a modern tub), which you can use as well—and we appreciated the thoughtful touch of underfloor heating in the changing area there. We were highly satisfied with everything—the space, facilities, and overall atmosphere—and would love to visit again in a different season.

I found this Facility as a pet-friendly option in the Suwa–Matsumoto area that seemed easy to use and reasonably priced. As you make your way through a maze-like residential neighborhood, the space suddenly opens up and you’ll find the Facility there. The Room is small but unique and comfortable, truly living up to its name as a “secret base you can stay in.” The Room is kept very clean, with amenities and supplies well provided. Despite its size, it’s arranged so you can move efficiently and relax with ease. It was a great example of how to make the most of a compact Room.

A traditional ryokan renovated with a modern touch. The facility may not match the price perfectly, but the meals are absolutely delicious. Excellent value for money!
