Shinshu Bessho Onsen Ryoshuku Kamimatsuya

It really felt like an Onsen Accommodation. The Facility feels a bit old, but it’s well maintained. Above all, the food was incredibly delicious! The Onsen also seems to be free-flowing from the source. It might be a little small, though. Still, the amazing food more than made up for those minor drawbacks, so I rated my satisfaction 5 stars. I definitely want to stay here again. The approach to Kitamuki Kannon nearby is quite short, but it had a great atmosphere and was lovely.

The dinner and breakfast offer a unique charm, different from traditional Onsen Ryokan meals. Each dish is delicious. The breakfast featuring Shinshu salmon Yuuan-yaki and simmered horse meat soba was delightful, along with the hearty miso soup filled with ingredients. The grilled shabu-shabu of Shinshu beef at dinner was tasty, though it could have had a bit more volume. While the building and facilities show some age, the renovated guest rooms were comfortable and pleasant. After staying here for the first time in 8 years, I found that while it retains its signature charm, there’s also a sense of freshness. I look forward to visiting again soon.
