Shibukawa Hotels with Breakfast

Kinchoro is the more exclusive wing of Fuikuichi. The rooms come sight private onsen and it’s similar to most 10 tatami rooms. The service from the staff is good. They are almost invisible when you don’t need them but will magically appear when you need help, during meal times and check in/out time. The food unfortunately seem to be so so only. I didn’t find it spectacular, and in fact fringing on being a bit too inventive. Otherwise, all okay.

I can see that it is a historical hotel. Because it is a Saturday relationship, the unit price I booked is a bit high, but compared to the hotel in Tokyo, I am relieved. This hot spring hotel is all-Japanese, breakfast and dinner are all, if you want to drink coffee, there is a vending machine, The room and the hot spring feel that there is a new finishing, only the hall has traces of history.

The service is very good, we booked a Japanese-style suite, the room is very beautiful, the scenery outside the window is very good, but the toilet is very smelly! ! ! ! It will stink to the room, this is very bad, the only big drawback! ! Breakfast is generally the same, dinner is OK, no work. The toilet in the room is really stinky, I won't go again next time 😭

The correct name of the hotel is Matsumoto Tower. The service of a family-run Japanese-style hotel must be impeccable. Each room has a dedicated receptionist. We are not good at Japanese, so we arranged an Indian waiter who understands some English (it seems Family-run Japanese-style hotels are gradually becoming international). The tatami room arranged for us is super large. There are two main halls and three toilets of 70 or 80 square meters. There is no problem for eight people; one night and two meals are exquisite. Dinner is kaiseki cuisine, breakfast is Japanese buffet; there are open-air natural hot springs (iron brown hot springs) on the 8th and 2nd floors of the roof. The bubbles before and after meals are very comfortable. The hotel has a free bus to Ikaho Hot Spring Ishidan Street (Matsumoto The lady enthusiastically recommended us to ride, and his English is good); in short, a very good experience.

The room felt a little outdated, but it wasn't a problem especially for the stay. You can barely hear footsteps from other rooms or voices from the hallway. However, the staff were very nice, and I liked the variety of rice buffets. The staff at Viking were also very nice and easy to ask questions to. There are many kinds of buffet from breakfast, and some hotels pretend to have many kinds and have the same thing in several places, but here it was all different kinds. There was also a corner where you could make seafood bowls. I felt like I was able to get excited from the morning. It was a hotel that I would like to visit again. Another thing that was really nice for me was that they had an extension cord in the room. I think most hotels don't have a place to charge your phone, so sometimes it's a bit far away to charge your phone, or you can't reach the alarm clock next to you when you go to sleep, but they provided an extension cord so I didn't have to worry about that. . It took less than 10 minutes to walk to the stone steps.

The room is big, the living is very comfortable and the service is good. There is a certain distance from the scenic area. The main reason is that the entrance to the gate is uphill, so it is a bit troublesome. Take the bus and get off at the stop in front of Shiduan Street in Ikaho Hot Springs.

A bit historical, there is a large parking lot, convenient for self-driving passengers. The location is near Shiduan Street, convenient for the street. There is a buffet dinner and breakfast, there is a food head wheel, there are drinks, including alcohol

I arrived in front of the hotel around 3 PM, but there was no one there. I waited, wondering what to do, when a leisurely-looking man came over. He asked for my name and loudly confirmed it with another man. When I went into the front desk, it was packed with people, and I didn't know what to do, so I drank some tea and waited. Then someone who arrived later spoke to the front desk staff who were explaining things, asked for their name, and wrote it down on a piece of paper. If I had just waited silently, I would have been left alone the whole time. The room was spacious, and I could see the distant mountains, so I was able to relax in the room. The bath wasn't exactly clean, but it was okay. The open-air bath was outside, but I couldn't see the scenery or the sky at all, which I guess is unavoidable. I went for breakfast around 8:40 AM, but there was another huge line! By the time I ate, the miso soup had gotten completely cold, and the seat I was shown to was gone. It was a terrible experience. However, the food, especially the rice balls, was delicious. If you asked me if I would want to go again knowing all this, I would say yes. Thank you for your hospitality.
