สถานีไมตะ × ที่พักบรรยากาศโลกแฟนตาซีแบบ Animal Crossingโรงแรม·เรียวกังที่มีคะแนนความพึงพอใจสูง

I stayed one night in the Main Building 8-tatami + 6-tatami Room. The charming covered corridor and the surrounding gardens were wonderful. I imagine it offers a different atmosphere with each season. Various hanging lanterns are lit along the corridor, making it even more atmospheric in the morning and evening. The lighting in the lobby, library, and Room was also enjoyable in its own way. Each of the three large public baths had a distinct character—the marble bath with stained glass, and the open-air bath with greenery all around. One downside is that, due to the Onsen minerals, the floors can be slippery. As this is an Onsen Ryokan, it was relaxing to spend time inside wearing yukata. All staff were kind and had lovely smiles. It was also fun to see that outfits differed depending on who assisted us—and sometimes even between morning and evening for the same person. Because of the building layout—Rooms connected like separate annexes via covered corridors—some areas inevitably feel almost outdoors. If you dislike insects or mosquitoes, you may want to take precautions. The meals were not overly elaborate, but seafood and other dishes were prepared deliciously, and I was satisfied with the carefully selected tableware as well. For the price, this Accommodation offers a truly luxurious escape from everyday life—I highly recommend it.

I had such a wonderful stay before, and since it sounded like more Rooms would be added soon, I made a last-minute Reservation before that happened. What was different this time is that an admission ticket to Hotelli Salo was included. It seems their baths may be members-only? I thought I might try it if it was included, but it turns out it’s not included with every Plan and is offered as an optional add-on. Since I can’t use the sauna, I’m completely satisfied with the Onsen at the Accommodation! Bath time can be reserved in one-hour slots until the next day; on the following day it’s separated by gender, and because there aren’t many Rooms on weekdays, you can relax and enjoy it quietly. The water is an artificial Onsen, but it has a lovely atmosphere—if you’re staying in Ueda, this is the place. I was happy to have the same Room as last time, and since it was just before summer, the terrace felt wonderful. You can see updates throughout the service, and you really feel how much they care about guests. They took care of me so pleasantly until the very end—this is an Accommodation I truly love and appreciate. After the expansion, it sounds like they will specialize in No Meals Included stays, but there are plenty of places to eat and shops nearby.

It’s a small, quiet Onsen town with very little to walk around and see. The Ryokan is quite old and it’s hard to call it spotless, but it’s a great place to relax in a laid-back rural setting. Each dish is carefully prepared, beautifully presented, and truly delicious—wonderful meals overall. The bath water also has its own distinctive character; I liked it as an Onsen. In summer they keep it at a lukewarm temperature, so you can soak for a long time. The owner and staff were friendly and genuinely kind.

I stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of three nights, and I was very satisfied that you prepared a different dinner menu each day. You also served trout-based dishes as the main course, and I really enjoyed the drinks as well. In addition, I was able to park my motorcycle under a roof, so even on the night the typhoon passed through, I felt at ease knowing it wouldn’t get wet in the rain. When the weather wasn’t good, I returned to the Accommodation early and enjoyed trout fishing at the fishing pond. You even cooked the trout I caught as salt-grilled fish and fried fish to enjoy with drinks after dinner—this trip truly let me fully enjoy Nagano. I would love to stay again if I have another opportunity.

Regarding the meals, breakfast is good, but although dinner offers many dishes, nothing in particular stands out as memorable. For example, since you grow plenty of vegetables in your fields, I think it would feel more special if the vegetable tempura were more substantial and served on a larger plate; there is no need to serve meat on a ceramic grill. Fresh vegetable tempura is a treat in itself, so I would appreciate that.
