Ryokan Nakamatsuya

The three of us—my 86-year-old father, my brother, and I—stayed here. When I mentioned during the Reservation that my father is elderly, they kindly upgraded us on the day to a Room with a private indoor Onsen bath fed directly from the source. My father was delighted and said he could truly relax and enjoy the Onsen.Everyone at the Ryokan, starting with the proprietress, was very kind. Their service was warm yet respectfully unobtrusive, which we really appreciated. Our Room was a traditional-style Japanese-Western suite inspired by an old farmhouse; it was spacious and luxurious, and we couldn’t help but admire the impressive beams.We were shown to a private dining room for our meal, which we had been looking forward to. The dishes were served at our pace, allowing us to savor delicious food and drinks in complete comfort. It was a wonderful Accommodation that made us want to return again after quite some time away. Thank you so much to the proprietress and all staff for your exceptional hospitality!

That morning, I made a last-minute Reservation on a whim and jumped on the bullet train. The Shuttle Service, reception, send-off, Room, meals, Onsen, value for money—everything was just as described in the Reviews: a warm, comfortable Accommodation with thoughtful service and nothing lacking or excessive. The freshly cooked rice at breakfast was glossy and delicious, and above all it was wonderful to see how proudly and energetically the staff worked. It’s close to Tokyo, and next time I’d like to visit during matsutake season.
