Fukeikan

At dusk after arriving at the inn, I noticed one of the rear tires on our rental car was flat.There was no spare tire, and when I called the rental car office, they told me to drive slowly to a service station or similar place and have it repaired.When I asked at the front desk, the owner kindly listened and even arranged a repair through an acquaintance.As a result, it was fixed safely before checkout—and at a friendly price.Car trouble that suddenly strikes in an unfamiliar place can be stressful. For a moment I thought our sightseeing plans for the next day were ruined, but thanks to their help we were able to enjoy our trip as planned. I can’t thank the owner enough. Thank you so much.About the inn: it’s an older building, but it’s very clean and well maintained. There are lovely fresh flowers arranged here and there in the rooms and hallways. We used one of the private open-air baths—the larger corner bath—in the morning. The view was wonderful, and I highly recommend bathing in the morning!Most noteworthy is how excellent the meals were. The Shinshu Premium Beef for dinner had sweet marbling and was absolutely delicious—I strongly recommend choosing the “Luxury Meal Plan” so you can enjoy it! The sashimi included Shinshu salmon and char (iwana). Both dinner and breakfast featured many delicious local specialties. Thank you for such wonderful meals.We chose this inn somewhat casually for sightseeing in Obuse, but it became a truly great memory. Thank you very much.

The building and Rooms are certainly old, but the view from the lobby, the delicious meals made with care using local ingredients, the hot Onsen, and above all, the pleasant hospitality of the staff made our stay very comfortable. Thank you for taking such good care of us.I would like to visit again during the autumn foliage season.
