Good location with lovely helpful staff. Did not try the breakfast. Is an old building and therefore very creaky. Staff leave from 8pm and you are asked to be mindful / quiet after 9pm.

Authentic and just wonderful

Our stay at this Ryokan was just perfect. We loved how central the hotel was located right in the most beautiful street with wonderful stores. We loved the beautiful authentic interior. The rooms were so comfortable and very clean. The beds were heavenly. The staff was nice and so friendly. It couldn’t have been better.

This ryokan is the best location in Matsumoto! Along with being beautiful and super clean, you literally walk out the front door and you’re on an idyllic street with restaurants and shops. It’s also walkable from the train station, and a short walk to the castle. If you’re looking for a traditional ryokan, this is it! The host also speaks great English and is very helpful if you need anything.

Amazingly Cozy Traditional Stay!

I can't say enough wonderful things about Nunoya Ryokan. This was our first trip (myself and little brother to celebrate his 30th), so we were new to Japan as a whole. We'd been in Tokyo and Kyoto before heading to Matsumoto. Upon departing Kyoto, we realised that weather was affecting many train lines. In fact, the property owner Michiyo reached out the night before to warn us of possible issues. At the time, our route was clear - but that changed drastically as our travel day included snow and fallen bamboo that cancelled lines. We ended up spending 12 hours train-hopping until finally reaching the city, with our ryokan a short 10-minute jaunt from the station. I'd called Michiyo to warn her of the possibility of us being stranded in Nakatsugawa and she was so apologetic even with things out of her control. As we got there late in the evening, we met her the following morning and she was extremely sweet and welcoming. The ryokan itself was one of the most comfortable stays we had on our entire trip, with an insanely spacious room and lovely bathroom! We took advantage of their tasty daily breakfast offerings and enjoyed complimentary coffee in the cozy lounge. This ryokan is in a great location with plenty to do around the property - though we did choose to take a nice 55-minute walk to a WONDERFUL tattoo-friendly onsen for some down time. Please do yourself a favor and choose Nunoya Ryokan for a traditional stay with some amazing ladies - and definitely get the breakfast!

Exceptional location

So you’re going to Japan, you want a stop beyond the megalopolis experience; visit Matsumoto. The “crow castle” is in this beautiful, walkable smaller city in the Japanese Alps. This Ryokan is exceptional; the staff, the rooms and the location is perfect. A taste of tradition on a street loaded with authentic shops and restaurants, even the tiny but excellent Matsumoto Brewery is just across the street. You can walk everywhere here, surrounded by mountains.

Loved the property. In a very quaint area; quiet street, close to everything. Walking distance to train station. Only downside was there were no window coverings so we were awake with the sunrise at 4:30 am. Also, no closets or bureaus for clothing, etc. Staff is great. Place is very clean. Looks like they are renovating. Best shower we had in Japan.
