A spectacular sight on a frigid winters night. I could imagine the epic battles which took place around this moat. A harmonious blend of quintessential Japanese architecture and gardens. I marveled at the craftsmanship of the carpenters who built this Edo period Castle.

"Staying at La Terra Resort was an absolute dream. The atmosphere, the perfectly curated property, and the delicious meals were all wonderful—but what truly made the experience unforgettable were the people. The team behind the scenes, along with the staff, made us feel so cared for and welcomed. One of the highlights was meeting Roshan, the owner. Learning about his colorful background and how La Terra came to be added such a personal and inspiring layer to our stay. He is a man of many...

Top Matsumoto Hotel Reviews

Matsumoto Marunouchi Hotel

Matsumoto Marunouchi Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lively hotel in excellent location "

Dormy Inn Matsumoto Natural Hot Spring

Dormy Inn Matsumoto Natural Hot Spring

10/10 Excellent

"This was our 3rd time staying at a Dormy Inn property. We love the baths and sauna, especially at such a reasonable price point. This particular building had an odor of cigarettes in the hallway of the floor our room was on, but our room itself was spotless and we kept the smell out by keeping the inner door closed. So it didn’t detract from our positive experience and we’d definitely stay here again in the future."

Tabino Hotel Matsumoto

Tabino Hotel Matsumoto

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean and spacious. Bathroom contained ingenious plumbing devices for convenience and best use of space. Public bath was nice and we'll maintained. Jinbei and slippers provided. Front desk was courteous and professional, check in was quick and easy. Location is close to train and bus terminal. "

Richmond Hotel Matsumoto

Richmond Hotel Matsumoto

10/10 Excellent

"We had a very pleasant stay at this hotel. Everything about the room was very comfortable and we highly recommend staying here. The hotel staff went above and beyond to help us when we encountered an issue with ETC along the way to this hotel in our rental car. (The issue had nothing to do with the hotel.) We asked the front desk how we should handle this issue as tourists and their staff and management went out of their way to make several phone calls on our behalf with the ETC staff and our rental car company explaining what happened. The hotel manager even said that if our rental car company or ETC gave us any issues when we turn our car in, to reach out to him directly and he would help us which was a very compassionate gesture to offer us. Not only will you get a nice and comfortable hotel room if you stay here, but you will also have very emphatic and friendly staff who will go above and beyond! We are very thankful to the hotel management and staff for taking such great care of us! "
