Matsumoto Castle San-no-Maru Matsumoto Marunouchi Hotel

We stayed here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. When we arrived, we were pleasantly surprised to find that our room had been upgraded. 　It was a corner room on the 8th floor with an amazing view of Matsumoto Castle right in front of us. The room was spacious, and the bed was a luxurious canopy bed. It was very comfortable to sleep in. 　The breakfast venue was also gorgeous, set in the former Dai-ichi Kangyo Bank building with chandeliers and an elegant atmosphere. While the selection wasn’t huge, each item was delicious and made with carefully sourced local ingredients. I especially loved the salad dressing (wasabi soy sauce). When I asked a staff member about it, someone knowledgeable came over and shared detailed information about where it came from. That staff member also told us various tips about Azumino—such as roadside stations we planned to visit that day and local specialties—so we had a really enjoyable conversation. One of the best parts of traveling is interacting with local people, so I’m glad we could talk about so many things. The only downside was that one corner of the sofa armrest in our room was torn, which was disappointing.

This was our second stay because we had such a great experience last time, and it was just as wonderful again. The hotel is functional and comfortable, and its location right in front of Matsumoto Castle is very convenient for sightseeing. Breakfast was delicious too.Thank you for taking such good care of us.
