ぬのや旅館 Nunoya Ryokan

This was one of the best, if not the best, stays we had in our one month trip in Japan! The location was perfect, the room was spotless and looked beautiful, and most of all, the service was impeccable. The owner is SO INCREDIBLY KIND AND WELCOMING. When we arrived at Nunoya Ryokan with filthy and wet shoes from a rainstorm, she put newspaper in them and let them out to dry for us, leaving us with perfectly dry shoes in the morning! It was nothing short of a LIFE SAVER. Our whole stay was perfect and we will absolutely be back!

Modern take on traditional ryokan run by very friendly and helpful staff, located close to castle and city art gallery. A bit of a hike from the train station but that also takes you away from the loud karaoke bars. Highly recommended.

We loved staying at this ryokan! The location is perfect, right in the middle of the center, 10 min walk from the station and in one of the beautiful authentic streets. They were very friendly and helpful. We forgot our sandals and they helped us by sending it to our next hotel. Great experience!

My partner and I stayed here whilst travelling in Japan. This hotel is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. The owner was very friendly and helpful. The room was a traditional Japanese room with Tatami matts and sliding doors. Very well located with lots of Japanese restaurants nearby. 10/10. We will be back.

The ryokan is super pretty, super clean, and they take care of every single detail. The room was very comfortable, and the bathroom was incredibly clean. The service was amazing, our hostess was the nicest, kindest person. We were given extra quilts for the cold and directions to cafes, restaurants and to move around town. Amazing experience, very recommended.

The hotel is located in Nakamachi street where there are a lot of historical buildings. It is one of the most popular area in Matsumoto.||||There are a lot of restaurants, shops nearby.

Nunoya was one of our favourite accommodations during our month-long trip to Japan. This ryokan is about as charming and old-world Japan as it gets. The decor is simple but elegant. The beds were probably the most comfortable we've slept on during our holiday. Nunoya is located right on the old shopping street where restaurants and souvenir shops abound. The couple who own the ryokan are very sweet, inviting, and went out of their way to try to find us a restaurant for dinner. We had breakfast there twice. The Japanese style breakfast was diverse and interesting, although not my favourite. The french toast was phenomenal - do yourself a favour and order it. They make a great latte too. The only issue we had was with our shower. The drainage wasn't working well so it flooded a bit whenever we took a shower. Otherwise, the bathroom was recently renovated so quite nice.

Our stay in this Nunoya Ryokan was a wonderful experience. The hosts were helpful and friendly. The location, facility, and rooms are exceptional. We enjoyed the breakfast and dinner, all excellent! I highly recommend staying at Nunoya Ryokan when visiting Matsumoto.

This was a beautiful, 85-year old ryokan on Nakamachi Street in Matsumoto. I think this is the best neighborhood to stay in when in Matsumoto-- the street is lined with historic buildings and has many interesting shops and restaurants. Nunoya is run by a lovely woman who was so welcoming when I arrived. To make a reservation, visit Nunoya's website: https://www.mcci.or.jp/www/nunoya/en/ and submit a message to inquire about availability. I got a response pretty quickly. My room was simple, but clean and had a nice ryokan atmosphere to it. The bathroom is okay-- it's nothing fancy. These are pretty basic accommodations in an older, atmospheric building, run by a sweetheart of an owner. (FYI: The nightly cost of my room was around $45/night at the time of this review (2017)-- and you need to pay in cash.)
