Jizokan Matsuya Ryokan

Great

너무 낡고 좁은방에 침구를 깔아 놓으니 움직일데가 없어서 힘들었어요 특히 온천욕장이 너무 작아서 다른사람 체취가 느껴지고 탕도 너무 작고 물도 더러워서 들어가기 싫더군요 밖에서 샤워만 하는것도 간신히 재빨리 하고 다녔는데 아침식사나 저녁식사도 가성비는 떨어지는 기분입니다 그나마 음식의 간이 맞고 불편하지만 주차장이 있어서 괜찮았습니다 결정적으로 요가 불편해서 잠을 잘못잤습니다 ㅠㅜ

Stayed 3 nights at this lovely ryokan. It is the first ryokan that I have ever stayed in. Great atmosphere, family-owned and run. Staff were warm and helpful. Our room was cosy and whenever we were due back in the evenings , the aircon was set to 26 Celsius, which seems very common in Japan, but too warm for me. Easily fixed, because each room has its own aircon. We enjoyed breakfast and one dinner. So elaborate, fresh and tasty. My friend and I are now in a western-style hotel in Sapporo and miss our little Nagano home!

Staying here was a wonderful experience. Very clean, staff were very nice , and Japanese breakfast was very authentic. The indoor onsen was fantastic! Very good location – – just down the street from the Zen Koji temple, and just about a 10 minute walk from downtown/train-bus station. We were able to message with the staff/family to let them know we would be several hours late due to our flight delay, and they responded with reassurance that they would be ready for us. we never stayed in for dinner, but we heard it was really good. our room was pretty tight with three people, but that is understandable based on the typical size of rooms. Need to be able bodied – – lots of stairs/steps. Pretty limited English from staff. Would recommend going to the 7 AM meditation service to get a blessing at the temple.

We had an amazing ryokan experience at Matsuya. We stayed in a traditional japanese room and couldn't have asked for anything more right from the minute we stepped into the ryokan. After being greeted warmly we were taken for a tour of the ryokan, which was definitely necessary as there are quite a few stairs and halls and our room was at the back of the ryokan. We had booked a traditional japanese room and it was wonderful. Windows all around the room overlooking beautiful trees in neighbouring yards. We also had a functional, small bathroom a tv and wifi. There was hot tea waiting for us upon arrival and when we got back from dinner our room had been rearranged into it's sleeping formation with sleeping pads and blankets on the tatami mats. The food at the ryokan was extremely comprehensive for both dinner and breakfast (both very traditional japanese menus). Plus they had an onsen that we enjoyed (separate for males and females). Definitely recommend staying here and enjoying the full package by getting your meals included. I booked through japanican website.

The staff is welcoming and kind, this is a family run business for 6 generations! The half board breakfast and dinner are exceptional, kaiseki style and every dish is presented beautifully. The location is right on the ometesando, lots of foot traffic but quiet. Futons are comfortable. We loved our stay and want to go back!
