Everything was exceptional from pick-up to send-off. I stayed here after a weekend trek, and upon arrival we were welcomed with a welcome drink, along with a clear and courteous explanation of the Accommodation—brief yet thorough at all the key points. As for dinner, to put it in gourmet terms: “a blissful dining experience woven from artfully presented plates and a refined atmosphere.” In my own words: the ambiance was wonderful, everything was delicious, and I couldn’t wait to see what would come next! The private bath we used after the meal was also perfect—an open-air bath of just the right size, stocked with popular in-bath amenities that were gentle on the skin—so I could truly relax. The futon was very comfortable, and breakfast was healthy and vegetable-focused with delicious rice; the after-meal coffee in the lounge was excellent as well. Thank you for seeing us off so pleasantly at the end. We’ll be back! It really was an amazing weekend.

This was our sixth stay, and every time we have enjoyed a fun and comfortable visit. All three private open-air (and semi-open-air) baths are available to use as often as you like. Both dinner and breakfast are generous in portion size, perfectly seasoned, and always leave us completely satisfied.

The full-course dinner in the evening was our child’s first experience, and it was a wonderful one. Everything at breakfast was delicious. The restaurant staff were warm and attentive, which really impressed us. We would definitely like to visit again.

From check-in, we had a very positive impression, and the rest of the staff were equally wonderful. The dining staff were all from overseas, but they served us with smiles and great dedication, and it was clear they are well trained. The food was delicately seasoned and served at just the right time to enjoy it at its best, and at breakfast we appreciated the thoughtful touch of having warm tableware. The bath was also spacious and very relaxing. We visited in midsummer this time, so we would love to return in a different season.

I’ve stayed at various Vacation Villages, but Retreat Azumino Hotel was completely different from any of them! This Hotel is too good to enjoy in just one night. It made me want a Multiple Night Stay. It’s quiet, spotless, and I have nothing to complain about.

We stayed as a family of three. It was an Accommodation with about 10 Rooms, where we could spend a very relaxing time. Depending on the time of day, the Onsen felt like it was reserved for private use. It was great to be able to choose from six types of shampoo. The food was also very delicious.

We stayed in a private cottage with an exclusive dog run! The cottage was very clean, quiet, and extremely comfortable.\nDinner was catered in the Room, but there were no drink services, so we went to a convenience store in the evening to buy some. We strongly felt it was necessary to bring our own items in advance.\nThe reception was far from the Room, and the guidance felt a bit rough, so we rated it 4 stars. However, we were very satisfied with the Room and found the hinoki bath soothing. We will stay again!

A large Hotel that appears as you steadily climb the mountain after passing through Azumino’s peaceful countryside. It was my first visit in several years, and it had been renovated—the lobby, front desk, and large public bath were all new and spotless. After the sauna, relaxing on the outdoor terrace surrounded by forest air was incredibly refreshing. Meals are served on a terrace overlooking the woods. In particular, in the morning I enjoyed coffee and pancakes while being soothed by birdsong and the scent of the trees. (I also had grilled rice balls and curry.) We stayed in a maisonette Room, which was spacious and perfect for a relaxing stay. I’m planning to return again in a different season.

Unfortunately, due to the rain we couldn’t have a BBQ, but we still had a wonderful time. The villa alone was very comfortable, and we made many great memories. We really appreciated that apple juice, wine, rice, miso soup, and more were provided. Everything was delicious. The Onsen was also excellent; although it rained a bit, everyone went in twice—once at night and once in the morning. We thought we wouldn’t be able to roast marshmallows because of the rain, but the owner showed us how to do it using a siphon coffee maker instead! Next time, we’d love to stay again when the weather is sunny.

We had a wonderful time. Due to the heavy rain, the Onsen source stopped, so it was disappointing that we couldn’t use the in-room bath. However, we received a courteous message in advance, and your responses throughout our communication were very polite, so we were able to stay without any issues. Although we couldn’t use the in-room bath, giving 1 star would lower your rating too much, so with hopes for next time I’m giving 5 stars. I would like to visit again once the Onsen is restored. As a personal request, I’d like to mention two points for improvement. First, regarding the hanging light in the center of the Room: even when it was on, it felt dim. If you could replace it with one that allows brightness adjustment or switch to a brighter LED light, I think it would be more comfortable. Second, when walking from the parking area to the entrance, there were multiple nests of what looked like horseflies on the ground. There were many of them around and it made entering and leaving the building difficult. Since this is an important pathway for guests, it would be better to remove the nests or take some kind of countermeasure.

The food was very delicious, just as described in the Review.

From the reservation stage, the owner made various thoughtful arrangements to accommodate food allergies. The hotel interior features a rare piano, paintings, and beautiful furnishings, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. Each dish was prepared with care and was both gentle and delicious. Thank you very much.

Thank you very much for your hospitality the other day! The Facility is old, but the toilets and washbasins were new, and the Room’s air conditioner was also new, which was great. Breakfast was excellent—the rice was exceptionally delicious, the pork soup (made without miso) was wonderful, and the other side dishes were also tasty. This is an Accommodation I would love to stay at again next time. Thank you very much.

We stayed here as a family while sightseeing in Nagano. The manager was friendly and responded to us courteously. As this is an Accommodation at a temple, it does not have the latest facilities, but the toilets, bath, and shared spaces were well maintained and clean. Thank you very much.

This was our second stay. We stayed for 4 nights and 5 days. Thank you for your advice on our plans, which turned out to be spot-on. The owner's warm personality made a great impression, and our family was already discussing on the way home when we could visit again!

There is an accommodation on the eastern hillside of the basin. Even if you call out from the greenery-surrounded entrance, it seems that the staff focused on cooking in the back cannot hear you. The surprised owner kindly carried my heavy luggage effortlessly to the second floor. The twin room on the second floor feels like staying in a friend's attic room, decorated with floral patterns. It is a bright room with a great view, offering a wide panorama of the Alps. The bathroom has no separate washing area and includes a toilet and bathtub together. Dinner starts precisely on time, featuring dishes made from handmade ingredients accompanied by detailed explanations—truly gourmet cuisine. At night, it’s quiet; only the sound of water flowing from a nearby stream can be heard. The night view of Azumino Plain combined with an expansive and clear sky full of stunning stars seen from the terrace is breathtaking. Morning also begins punctually. The terrace overlooking mountain ranges was very comfortable. Everything at this auberge seems to revolve around prioritizing cuisine, reflecting the passionate dedication of its owner-chef to their craft—it’s truly impressive!

I was able to relax in the Room while looking out at the lush green trees and enjoy a soothing, restful time. The meals were also delicious; I took my time enjoying the course dinner, and for breakfast I had a Japanese set meal. Both the presentation and taste were excellent.

After sightseeing in Kamikochi, we drove and enjoyed a relaxing Onsen as a couple. The open-air bath in the special Room was located in a spacious garden, allowing us to spend time at ease. The Room was also large with beautiful decor, providing a comfortable stay. We would love to visit again.

Although the rain and thick white clouds sometimes blocked the view completely, the views from the Room overlooking the town, from the restaurant, from the lobby in front of the front desk, and from the open-air bath were all wonderful.

This was our second stay, and this time we enjoyed a three-night Multiple Night Stay. The staff were welcoming and attentive, and the amenities and bath facilities were excellent. The Room was spacious and spotless, with beautiful interior design. Thanks to the thoughtful care shown to guests, we had a truly comfortable trip—thank you. Whenever we visit Azumino, this is the Accommodation we choose.
