Guest Reviews
- Jesús (7/5): Pensado para las parejas no para las familias - Hicimos una reserva de 2 adultos y 2 niños, y nos encontramos que los niños no tienen la cena incluida, sin ni tan siquiera haber recibido un sólo mensaje avisando de esto, y sin poder reaccionar ya que cerca del emplazamiento no hay ningún supermercado cerca, este es el motivo por el cual no le puedo poner un sobresaliente.
- Briscar (9/5): Excellente adresse ! - Une maison très ancienne avec beaucoup de caractère. Nous avons apprécié les manières pour la chambre qui est préparée pendant le dîner...le service du dîner dans un box particulier...de nombreux accessoires offerts pour la toilette...les repas excellents! Un grand parking gratuit juste en face ! Tout se fait en douceur et professionnellement...et en musique ! Peut-être les escaliers...ils sont raides et il vaut mieux avoir des bagages légers...
- Michael (9/5): Great stay - Excellent restaurant, great private onsen, 2 minutes walk to bus stop with 7 minutes ride to castle and downtown. Very clean and convenient laundromat right at the bus stop. No drawer space in traditional Japanese room
- suzuki (8/5): よかった。 - 風情がありました。 内風呂のシャワーが調子悪いのか、温度が熱かったので水の方に栓を捻ったら温度が下がらずお湯も止まった。
あと、おかずの味付けですが、塩が少しキツめでした。
- Benjamin (9/5): Great Onsen-Ryokan in tranquill, natural surroundings. Welcoming to visitors from abroad. -
- toshihiro (7/5): - 食事は値段に比し良かった。スタッフの教育も良い。 部屋は狭い。間取りが狭い。料金との割合では良い方です。
- Benoit (10/5): Splendide, superbe, incroyable - Éblouissant, vaut le détour: isolé mais accessible facilement et au début de balades. Dîner compris exceptionnel avec un service remarquable ! Équipements dans la chambre (siège massant ++) ! Hors chambre bains privatifs ! Eau un peu chaude dans le onsen… à noter, pas dérangeant pas de douche dans la chambre donc obligation de passer au bains publics…
- Natsuko (6/5): -
- Giuseppe Alba (10/5): Ryokan con onsen privata e cena kaiseki - Camera con poltrona che fa il massaggio, tatami e futon. La cena kaiseki ottima e anche la colazione mi ha fatto fare wow. Onsen privata, esperienza unica Lo staff parlava poco inglese. Più spiegazioni su come bisognava fare la onsen e il giardino all'esterno della onsen sembrava trascurato
- Nina (10/5): - Pristna izkušnja v Japonskem gostišču. Onsen odličen.
- li mei (7/5): 傳統日式飯店早/晚餐豐盛 - 位置 沒有電梯
- Juliann (8/5): -
- Maribel (9/5): -
- Nicolas (10/5): Excellent séjour traditionnel - Magnifique repas du soir et excellent petit-déjeuner. Authenticité et tradition. Déco des chambres un peu perfectible (surtout l'éclairage)
- Johannes (7/5): -
- Cintia (7/5): - Das Personal ist sehr höflich und nett. Das Essen (Kaiseki) ist definitiv ein Highlight und es in einem Yukata zu genießen war sehr schön. Das Bad mit thermalen Wasser mit Blick auf den Garten am Ende des Tages war sehr entspannt. Alles sehr privativ und ruhig. Das Gebäude braucht an vielen Stellen Renovierungen, da es schon ziemlich alt ist. Es gab Flecken an der Wand vom Essenraum. Auch im Badezimmer alte Ausstattung. Unser Zimmer war etwas weiter vom Eingangsbereich entfernt und es war kalt (offenes Flur).
Ein Vorschlag: Beim Abendessen und Frühstück vielleicht vorher abzufragen, wie viel man essen würde oder ob es etwas gibt, was man nicht unbedingt essen würde. Bei uns gab es leider am Ende noch viel Essen übrig, da wir nicht so viel essen. Das war sehr schade.

- Pierre-simon (10/5): -
- Makoto (5/5): まあまあかな - 夕食、朝食食事及び場所は良かった。 焼き魚が鮎ならもっと良かった。
- 河野 (6/5): - スタッフの方々が親切で、感じ 良かったです。 思ったよりも建物が古くて、雪も降って 寒かったです。
- Julie (10/5): Wedding gift - This stay was a wedding gift to our niece and her husband. They told us they had an wonderful relaxing time and enjoyed the delicious meals. They said it was the nicest night of their time in Japan.
- Pou Kei (9/5): staffs are good but the buffet dinner not good - special wooden house little bit age
- Andrea (9/5): - Very nice traditional japanese hotel, staff was very polite, we enjoyed our time staying there It is a bit far from the city but it wasnt important for us during our stay
- RIO (8/5): - お食事がどれも美味しかったです スロープの坂になっているところに手すりがあれば良かったです
- Kazumi (9/5): - お料理が美味しかったです。
- Diego (10/5): - Es un Ryokan precioso, con unos onsen exteriores naturales muy bonitos. Estuvimos en pareja y fue genial Hacia algo de frío por los pasillos pero nada grave.
- Tiphaine (10/5): - C’était une expérience inoubliable. Et le personnel était parfait avec nous
Le repas était aussi succulent
- alihiko (9/5): こういう旅館に出会いたいです。 - 大変、満足でした。 食べ過ぎて、寝られなかったことです。
道路がわからず、苦労しました。
- Romy (9/5): Top - Traditioneel japans verblijf, lekker eten vriendelijk personeel. Onsen was ook zeer aangenaam.
- Anita (7/5): Traditional Ryokan stay - Good food. Very comfortable futonbeds. Staff is very hospitable. Although they don’t speak English so well they still managed to help us with everything. The table with the blanket was very comfortable. It’s a little far from the city center and the bus connection is not so good. Preferably come by taxi/car.
- maria (9/5): very authentic Japanese experience with delicious food. - we had half board option as property is quite far from centre. Breakfast and Dinner were both excellent and varied both days. They kindly gave us breakfast 15 mins early on the 2nd day as we had to leave early for a train. The private onsen was very nice and 40 mins was plenty of time to relax in it, no more time needed. The room was big and spacious. I would have preferred a private bathroom but those rooms weren't available and the private onsen made up for it. everything was good
- Cristina (9/5): - Tenir una butaca de massatges a l’habitació.
- Iris (10/5): - The whole atmosphere, the staff, the room and the food.
The private onsen was the best. Don't miss the one outdoor The stairs. Going up with the slippers is inconvinient. Better to arrive with a small beg or backpack
- akemi (8/5): お腹いっぱい - 食事が夜、朝共に素晴らしかった。その時の学生スタッフの対応、女将の対応も素晴らしかった。人を育てている感じが温かく伝わりました。 予約ではないお風呂がぬるかったのが残念でした。木漏れ日の方は良かった。
- YOICHI (9/5): 終わり良ければ... - スタッフさんの対応は素晴らしい👍
料理は美味しかった 寝具の改善が必要
- Maxime (10/5): Awesome ryokan - Incredible place, where time seems to be suspended. Bedroom, dining room, shared spaces, onsens, everything is breathtaking. Meals are rich, various and delicious. Staff is very nice.
- Kei (8/5): また行きたい - お湯が良かった。お米が美味しかった。 一番近いトイレが修理中だったこと。
- アツシ (9/5): 古い旅館の日本の旅 - お食事もとてもおいしく、とてもいい滞在になりました。
古い建物ですが、十分清潔で何も不安なく過ごせました。
周りにコンビニなど何もないですが、量も質も高い夕食を頂けるので問題ありません。
静かに落ち着いて過ごせます。 周りには民家と山以外は何もなく、もし夜中に何か食べたくなっても車がないとコンビニにもたどり着けません。
もちろんそんな事態はないくらい、量も質も高い夕食を頂けます。
お風呂の種類は豊富ではありません。露天風呂も時間制です。
渡り廊下などは外を歩くのと同じですので、虫がいる事があり、虫が苦手な人は注意かも。
- Adrian Michael Campi (9/5): A most pleasing experience in a traditional style. - Dinner and breakfast were both provided. Each one was memorable for the variety of small items and the enormous care taken to make them pleasing to the eye and taste buds. Staff were very helpful in explaining the operation of the friendly facility along with the most charming assistants at the two meals. We enjoyed the onsen in the afternoon on arrival, allowing time to rest a little before dinner. The sleeping provisions made for a very restful and comfortable night. We were very pleased in the morning on departure that after we had asked for directions to the bus stop, one of the staff or perhaps the owner made sure we took the correct turn off the street in which the onsen is located. When factoring in the prices that might be charged for the two meals provided, the cost of our stay was a very reasonable one. Nothing at all.
- Dorte Berthold (8/5): Fin traditionel ryokan. Middagen var overdådig, lokal og meget velsmagende og veltillavet. Den private onsen var lækker -
- Maria-Isabella (8/5): - Erinomainen aamupala, illallinen ja kylpyläkokemus. Ylitti odotukset, hotelli itsessään on vanha ja kulumisen merkkejä näkyy mutta palvelu on erinomaista ja hotellissa on tunnelmaa.
- 佑也 (10/5): 親孝行 - 対応がとても良かったです 無し
- Dominic (8/5): -
- Ishiguro (8/5): -
- Lisa (9/5): Serviceminded og venligt personale, god morgen- og aftensmad og mulighed for at opleve en autentisk japansk ryokan oplev - Sød og hjælpsom personale, der hjalp med at kommunikere på japansk. Lækker aftensmad og morgenmad og der var masser af det. Godt med mulighed for privat onsen. Ville have været rart med bad på værelserne (måske dem med privat bad bare var fuldt booket?). Havde været god gæstfrihed med vandglasset på værelserne. Futonerne var lige tynde nok at sove på i forhold til andre steder.
- Xaris Papadakis (10/5): - Very calm ambience, that matched the relaxing experience the Onsens available in the hotel premises.
Everything was organized when it came to the dinner and breakfast in the hotel as well as the onsen's schedule.
Very friendly staff and eager to help and understand what you needed.
- ?? (10/5): - 夕食、朝食が、ボリューム満点で美味しかった。
- Yutaka (10/5): 最高 - 朝食・夕食ともに最高です。スタッフの皆さんの応対も最高です。貸切風呂も最高です。全てが大満足です。 部屋が建屋の一番奥で、食事会場やフロントまでがとても遠かったです。どーしよーもないことですが
- Takeshi (7/5): 趣きのある温泉旅館 - ・従業員のサービス
・アメニティ
・貸切風呂 ・トイレの故障
・従業員のサービスレベル
・フロント対応(呼んでも来ない)
・チェックイン、チェックアウト
- みのり (8/5): 久しぶりに会った友人と最高の時間を過ごせました。 - 宿のスタッフの方が皆さん温かく丁寧な接客をしてくださり気持ちよく利用できました。
美味しい信州のお料理をおなかいっぱい食べられて、最高に幸せでした!
施設内もお庭の雰囲気が素敵で、ゆったりとした気持ちで過ごせました。周りの声も聞こえづらく、静かに楽しむことができました。
貸切露天風呂も広く、貸切室内風呂も併設されていて、ゆったり体を温めることができました。 強いて言えばお布団についてです。
マットレスがなく布団が畳の上に敷いてあったので、肩や腰が痛くなってしまいました。可能であれば、薄めだったとしてもマットレスも重ねていただけると最高でした。
- Rajade (9/5): - Le repas kaiseki d'une grande qualité, l'accueil chaleureux, le confort des chambres, le cadre traditionnel, le onsen privatif inclus pendant 40 min par chambre. Si je devais faire une remarque le onsen était un peu petit et en intérieur, pour avoir accès aux onsens extérieures c'est en supplément.
- Judith (10/5): Experiència única. Molt recomanable! -
- Fuyuko (10/5): - レトロな雰囲気がありながら、館内はとても清潔で気持ちよく過ごせました。
お食事も本当に美味しかったです^_^
- thomas (10/5): -
- Diana (9/5): Superb - The food (breakfast and dinner) exceeded our expectations - the diversity of tasty dishes, the presentation, and the service were exceptional.
- Yuriy (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vanessa (9/5): Superb -
- Terje (9/5): Authentic, old-fashioned Japanese hotel with Japanese style rooms with futons on the floor. - Very genuinely old-fashioned Japanese. I felt like I was in the Shogūn Series. I love the private onsen with a wooden bathtub.
- Giuseppe (8/5): Very good - Fantastic experience with the private onsen, with private small pools both internal and external
- Audrey (6/5): Not a fan of ryokans - Private bath Oldish room and we are definitely not tatamis people. Wasn’t comfortable.
- Lei (10/5): Wonderful stay - my favourite hotel in Japan. - This was my favourite hotel. The staff were lovely and friendly, the private onsen was lovely. You could even have free spring water - which I have not seen in any other hotel. It felt like a true Japanese experience. There was so much amazing food - I have never been so well fed in my life! That I didn’t stay longer! I would recommend they fix one of the bannisters near the bottom of the stairs as it moves! I would suggest more plants/greenery in the public bath.
- Alice (10/5): Gorgeous surroundings, exceptional food. - This is a very special place to stay. The staff are incredibly welcoming and kind, and the food is exceptional. The public bath (available 24h) is very pleasant but the private baths are amazing. We’ll never forget lying in our outdoor pool watching the rain fall from the camellia petals…. We had an early start and the staff were so helpful in arranging a slightly early breakfast and a taxi for us. A perfect stay - thank you!
- Remi (10/5): Exceptional -
- Luigi (7/5): Good - The food was amazing. Very cold
- Rachel (10/5): Authentic traditional Japanese hospitality - Loved the traditional ryokan style and incredible onsen. The meals were delicious and all served in private dining rooms - Japanese style. Lovely staff. Extremely cold in winter moving between rooms as the corridors are open air. It didn’t bother us but might bother some. We had a car so was easy for us to access the property but might be difficult if you don’t as it’s on the outskirts of town.
- GOTA (10/5): - 建物は複雑でしたが、丁寧に説明してくれて不自由なく利用できました。貸切風呂も良かったです。料理も美味しくて大食いの我が家もお腹いっぱいでした。
機会があればまた利用したいです。
- Mikio (8/5): - とても丁寧な対応で、大学同期との年1旅行を気持ちよく過ごせました。
夕食、朝食ともに彩り豊か。目で楽しみながら美味しいお料理に舌鼓を打ちました。
美人の女将さんもサプライズでした!
- Monica (10/5): Fantastic stay, beautiful setting. - Everything exceeded our expectations. We were looking for a traditional ryokan and this was it. The room was beautiful, the beds were comfortable, the onsen was gorgeous. We loved our stay. The staff was very helpful and friendly. They were very accommodating and were great at communicating with us in our language. The meals were very traditional and it was really fun trying all the different foods. We would return any time. There weren't any big negatives. The only thing that was a little different for us was that the hallways were cold but that just seems to be how heating in the area works. Our bedroom was nice and warm.
- julien (10/5): Expérience incroyable ! - Superbe Ryokan, expérience inoubliable, accueil extraordinaire, chambre japonaise et lits installés pendant le repas (futons).
Prenez le repas du soir et le petit déjeuner !
Quel régal... vous sortirez de table le ventre bien rempli c'est copieux et délicieux !
Le onsen est agréable et gratuit 40mn.
Allez y les yeux fermés !
Attention ce n'est pas en ville acces en voiture ou taxi.
- KEIKO (10/5): - 定年を迎えた夫とお世話になりました。昔ながらのお宿ですが、清潔感があり、貸切湯、お食事、サービス、接客など全てが大満足でした。継続的にお世話になりたいお宿です。小さいお子さんがいるファミリーよりご夫婦向きのお宿です。
- ? (8/5): - 8月中旬に利用いたしました。
歴史を感じる施設で一泊でしたがゆっくりすごせました。
食事にお酒、温泉水で淹れていただいたコーヒーなど美味しく頂きました。
貸切温泉、内湯どちらも利用しましたがよかったです。
貸切風呂でどちらかリニューアルされていたとのことですが説明がなかったので説明があるといいかなと感じました。
女将さんはじめスタッフの皆様は明るく気さくに話しかけていただきました。
松本市街から少し離れていますがバスでも問題なくいけました。
静かな環境でゆっくりすごしたい方にはいいと感じました。
- Dane (10/5): Exceptional -
- Zabdiel (10/5): Exceptional - It was a super nice stay, we loved the dinner and the staff super friendly.
- Byronryono (10/5): A very nice traditional onsen experience. - Everything -- room, helpfulness, private onsen bath reservation, dinner and breakfast.
- Julie (10/5): Great 2 day stay - Friendly staff, beautiful clean onsen baths public and private. We reserved an outdoor private bath one afternoon which was wonderful. Amazing meals in restaurant in private room. Easy to take bus from Matsumoto station There was nothing we didn't like
- Ronaldo (7/5): Good - Dinner and breakfast are very good. Authenticity of the ryokan. The ryokan needs proper maintenance.
Only one 40 minutes private onsen usage included in the price. For extra usage additional payment required.
10 am check out is a little early.
- Joanne (10/5): Exceptional -
- Audrey (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gabriella (9/5): Superb -
- Toni42 (10/5): SUPER nice place, 10/10 would recommend - Izumiya Zenbe is LOVELY - I don't think the photos do it justice. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful. The building was an amazing old structure with beautiful little gardens in the walkways. The room we had was very nice, with tatami mats and futon beds. We loved the tea set and the little table with the heater underneath...! We also booked the breakfast and dinner service, and we are very glad we did. The private dining spaces and kaiseki experience was awesome. As was cruising around the ryokan in our yukata robes. We only used the barrel bath, rather than the rotenburo, but it was so good (although very hot!). A very relaxing place, we would happily stay here again. There is not much that I didn't like about the experience we had at Izumiya Zenbe, it was really great. The only downside would be perhaps that the accommodation is on the edge of town, so bus or taxi is necessary to get into central Matsumoto. No big deal though.
- Florence (9/5): Superb - A traditional ryokan experience with an amazing dinner and breakfast It was extremely cold walking from our rooms to the spa, but admittedly couldn't be helped because of the open air layout of the corridors.
- Kate (9/5): Lovely place with traditional meals and baths, and staff who made us feel very welcome. Thank you - As foreigners (Australian) we were welcomed and everything explained beautifully in English. We booked a private bath which was great. The traditional dinner and breakfast were delicious with lots of choice, beautifully presented and tasted great. Highly recommend this place. The inside slippers cold have been bigger for the men in my family. Size 12 and 13 feet!!! But they managed.
- Vincent (10/5): Exceptional - A welcoming and authentic experience
- てるひこ (10/5): - 夕食朝食共に美味しくいただきました
- Anonymous (10/5): Great service. The course dinner and breakfast is worth the trip. - Wonderful service No elevator
- Jamie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hiu (8/5): Good Tradition experience - A very tradition building and just feel like time travel back to the old days in Japan. Hotel is clean, the public bath is clean and tidy. The onsen in public bath is hot and very comfortable, they provide all the amenity item you need. The restaurant provide dinner and breakfast, not as many dishes as I expected but still very nice. The staff mainly speak Japanese but they are very friendly and helpful during the stay. We enjoyed the outdoor private Onsen, it's great environment worth trying.
- Javin (9/5): Excellent place and staff - Good onsen facilities and very hardworking staff. Nothing much
- Justin (10/5): Truly a great place to stay. The staff is welcoming and will do everything to accommodate you. - The building is beautiful and the staff was superb. There are a great variety of hot spring baths, but the best was the outdoor bath. It's a little far from town and in a residential district. Without a car that means you will end up needing to leave the city by around 5:30 to make it to dinner, and there isn't a good option to head out after dinner. If you have a car or are willing to take a taxi, though, this can be worked around.
- Peter (9/5): Superb -
- Peter (9/5): Traditional hospitality and well chosen/ generous meals. - The atmosphere of times past, special dietary needs were accommodated.
- Seiji (10/5): 落ち着いた温泉宿 - 連泊(3泊)で個室風呂を使わせてくれました。2泊目から。3泊目はより広いところ。
- Verified traveler (10/5): 神奈川県在住の温泉&音楽好き - 露天風呂、スタッフの対応、食事、部屋、お酒、清潔さ
、静かさ等々言うことなし。
露天風呂から見えた月と星、きれいでした。
おすすめのお酒、どれも旨かった。
刺身、サクラマスに感動。
そば、善光寺で食べたそばより美味しかった。
BGM、夕食時はジャズ。朝食時はバロック。とてもいい選曲。
番外編。出発時、女将の「山賊焼きなら塩尻。」と聞いて予定になかった塩尻まで行き、昼食は塩尻山賊焼き。
美味しかった。
ありがとうございました。
