Incredible nice welcome and checkin procedure. Everything is freshly renovated and brand new. Drinks for free and private Onsen is amazing, so beautiful with the outside pool and view to the forest. Room was big and had everything. The owner acconpanied us to a local Izakaya close by and we had an amazing dinner in tyoical japanese atmosphere cloe to hotel. Village is super cozy.

Every part of our experience was wonderful. The staff were thoughtful, accommodating, and committed to making our experience more special than we could have imagined. Their effort to make our experience enjoyable and full was noted every day, and I would highly recommend staying here to anyone visiting Nagano! Great facilities, thoughtful touches, and world class staff!

Bessho Onsen is a magic place just outside Ueda, full of lovely temples and hot springs. This Ryokan fully embraces the vibe of this little village and offers good facilities in an amazing surroundings. The hotel is pretty old, which gives it a nostalgic feeling. But it is perfectly kept and with all the amenities you should wish for. A lovely room, amazing gardens, very good indoor and outdoor hot springs and a very very good restaurant. We had the best breakfast of our entire trip there! Last but not least the staff is absolutely lovely.

Our Nakamatsuya stay was absolutely perfect. The staff were so welcoming and helpful - an English speaking host came to greet us on arrival as neither of us are Japanese - and the timings of dinner and onsen availability etc was explained thoroughly. They allowed us to drop our luggage before check in and it was waiting for us in our room on arrival. The room was beautiful and the ultimate comfort. We had the western/mix room with it's own private hot spring bath. We changed into our robes and tabi socks as soon as we arrived and pretty much wore them the entire time, including for a walk around the town in the evening. It's easily the most luxurious place we stayed throughout our whole trip, and this was partly to do with the fact that there were only 25 rooms so it felt very quiet and relaxing - I was the only person in the hot spring bath when I arrived! The outdoor top floor bath has a gorgeous view of the mountains and there is a cold beer vending machine outside the onsen entrance so we sat in the relaxation space with a cold beer as soon as we left the bath. Heavenly! Kaiseki dinner was incredible and we tried numerous sakes. Breakfast was also incredible with numerous delicious small tastes of various seasonal and traditional dishes. It is an expensive hotel but when you consider everything that comes with it I believe it is worth it for a truly memorable experience.
