"This very new seeming property was excellent and I'd certainly choose it again for another stay at Besshoonsen. Room was and clean relatively spacious, the three private spas worked well (although the hotel was not full when I stayed). Meals were delicious, dinner and breakfast, and sensible quantities.
If you're thinking of an overnight here a) you should come - it is a lovely old town and b) this place has your back for a bit of onsen magic while you are here."
"Beautiful hotel! Well conserved for its age. Very original Japanese experience. Great staff, they really get out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Fantastic experience "
"This is a typical older business hotel. The facilities are a bit dated and the room looks old, but the bed is comfortable and everything was clean. The public bath and breakfast buffet are nice bonuses. For the price, I have no complaints. I would stay again."
"This place is so authentic. It was a true gem of a Japanese experience for our family. We loved everything about it: hospitality, clean rooms, beautiful views, natural spring style onsens… Highly recommend!"

Stayed in the glamping tent with my family of four (including a 5 & 9 yr old). Such a wonderful spot - tent was comfy w/ a dedicated toilet/sink room in a separate adjacent little building. Had a wonderful fire pit which the staff lit for us in the evening at the time we requested (on our was back from dinner we texted them from their very helpful app). All amenities in the main building were super clean, very new, and meticulously curated in a minimalist style. It had (x3) private Onsen baths...
The location is a bit off-track, but the area is nice and worth a detour if you have a car.
The building itself is ordinary but the room is very spacious and comfortable, with some view to the mountains and valley, and some to the next buildings.
The onsen is nice though not particular.
Service is very attentive and helpful.
But by far the best part was the dinner (and breakfast), which was Michelin-star level, multi-course beautiful and tasty dishes.
Great hotel close to the station. For a business hotel in Japan, the room was slightly bigger than those I’ve stayed in in the past. The bed is big and comfortable. Breakfast is excellent and has lots of variety, mostly traditional Japanese pickled vegetables and cold dishes. They also had ochazuke with delicious toppings, and is the perfect comfort food for the morning.
It was perfect! The staff was beyond amazing, so helpful and accommodating. The room was clean and comfortable. The onsen was lovely. It was a very beautiful place to be. I can’t wait to go back☺️
Tyler, Mari, Andy and Mio were fantastic hosts, The kaiseki-style food was amazing (I opted for the half board; the ultimate way to go). From the moment I had walked into the ryokan, I had felt like my dreams had come true. From what I had only imagined and seen in anime/videos to actually experiencing a traditional ryokan with traditional Japanese-styled rooms. Equipped with tatami mats, shogi screens, and breath-taking views (I had the second floor room with a view of Mt. Hattoh).

The Dormy Inn in Nagano was an excellent value! The location is first rate - less than 10 minutes walking from Nagano Station. The Inn has wonderful amenities - an indoor/outdoor onsen. After onsen free ice cream snacks. A very tasty breakfast including Japanese and western cuisine - the quality and variety was great and the price was reasonable. They also have chilled apple juice during the day and made to order ramen in the evening. If you miss the ramen, they will give you a...
