Japanese style inn with foreign friendly features

Great location for exploring Kiso Valley and the Nakasendo Trail. Hotel is Japanese style with Onsen and tatami rooms, but also private baths and western amenities. Great view of the local river from most or all rooms.

Decent stay. Staff was very nice. Indoor Osen was pleasant. Rooms had a gorgeous view, but bed was not very comfortable. Good stop for Nakasendo trail, but expensive for what it is in my opinion.

This hotel surpassed expectations from a service and amenities standpoint. It was easy to find and there were plenty of dining options nearby. We had a family of 6 split into 2 rooms and they were kind enough to provide 2 rooms that were beside each other for us.

Our room was on the 4th floor right above the river. Sitting in the enclosed balcony was divine. We enjoyed the onsen (Japanese hot pools) and we enjoyed dinner with red wine for a very reasonable price.

Self serve rice and miso soup. Buffwt breakfast was also included and was very good. Hotel has a public bath. Free sodas, coffee and juice available all day.

This is such a unique opportunity to stay in a real Japanese household. The owner didn't speak much English but with a help of phone translation we could figure out everything. The place is a bit away so we had a person in tourist office to call and the owner picked us up and next day drop us off. We received dinner and a breakfast and food was very tasty. This is not for fancy folks but for someone who is looking for a good rest and a unique experience. You only can book it through a tourist office in town.
