Pension Poetical

This was so so so lovely. The owners are incredibly welcoming and make you feel right at home. The dinner and breakfast meals are delicious, the onsen is lovely after a long day of hiking, the rooms are spacious, and you’re really able to recharge in the beautiful nature. I’d recommend this to absolutely everyone who is looking for a wholesome experience!! It feels a bit like traveling back in time. Would love to come back here!

La hospitalidad de su personal, muy amables y una atención al cliente extraordinaria.

Puede mejorar la limpieza del baño.

The hosts were extremely kind and helpful, it is a proper family-run business. It is nested at the beginning of the forest so it is very quiet. The facilities are not the newest but everything is clean and well taken care of. The onsen is very nice and quiet with a lot of sulphur.

The most lovely hosts, the greatest food, prepared directly from the heart, cozy rooms, great private Onsen ( there is two of them). We loved everything about our stay, especially the kind and welcoming personalities of the owners. The Location is also beautiful for hiking and Kamikochi is near.

老板娘親切熱誠溫暖，泡湯區分室內室外，1人獨享30分鐘。

房間內應該有馬克杯，洗臉台没有漱口杯及吊掛毛巾的掛架

朝食が美味しかった^_^

The staff were incredibly sweet and attentive. The private onset meant I could have alone time with my friends. The meals were so delicious, and they made them specially gluten free on request!

Our stay at Poetical was truly special and deeply rooted in local charm. The family who owns and runs the property were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel immediately at home. Each evening and morning we were treated to beautifully prepared 4 - 5 course homemade gourmet meals - thoughtful, comforting, and delicious, and clearly made with care and pride. The onsite natural onsen bath was a highlight, always available and perfect after a day on the slopes. Evenings by the cozy fireplace, playing games with the kids, made the experience feel relaxed and intimate. With easy access to the slopes and the dining options of Norikura, Poetical struck a rare balance between comfort, authenticity, and convenience. We would gladly return.

Just be sure to have snow tires. Norikura typically fares better than Matsumoto City, as snowfall is common and roads are cleared quickly. That said, there is a relatively steep slope leading up to the pension, so snow tires and ideally all-wheel drive will help you feel confident in winter conditions.
