Descubra sua estadia em Shimosuwa

This time, I wanted to enjoy the hot springs at my own pace, so I made a reservation at Gingetsu (one night stay, no midnight snack, breakfast included). It was a 5-minute walk from Suwa Taisha Shimosha and Akimiya (15 minutes from Shimosha and Harumiya), so it was the perfect location for those who love shrines and temples. It's located in a quiet town, so it's a quiet and calm location. It's a hot spring inn with a total of about 15 rooms, so it wasn't crowded and I was able to enjoy the hot springs at my own pace in the indoor bath and the open-air bath (private time available). The hot spring had a very soft texture, and the temperature was just right, so it didn't sting my skin. When I was wondering what to do for dinner, when I checked in, the staff showed me a map of Shimo-Suwa and recommended some nearby restaurants. I got the impression that they were proactive in providing information about the neighborhood, perhaps to encourage people to visit nearby shops. If you have any questions, feel free to ask the front desk. The room's refrigerator was stocked with delicious charcoal water, and the thermos was stocked with hot water, so it was nice to be able to hydrate my tired body and have hot tea right away when I had time to calm down. I was expecting breakfast to be something simple like rice, miso soup, natto, and hot spring water*, but there was a wide variety of dishes, including salad, several small side dishes, and grilled fish, and I was able to enjoy local ingredients, so it was a very satisfying breakfast. I think this is a historic hot spring inn, so there are stains on the carpet in the hallway and wear on the sliding door handles in the rooms that have come with age, but the shoji screens are not torn and the hotel is very clean despite its age, and I was very happy with the price range. I would like to use it again when I visit Shimo-Suwa.

It is not new, but it was a spacious room for the price, so it was relaxed enough. The front desk was polite. Convenience stores are also nearby.

There was no hospitality. There was no delicious meal. The evaluation of this inn is about the location. Control of infection Although it is a little far from the entrance to the reception, it is good to do the temperature check at the entrance, but the temperature check at the reception instead of the entrance. The cherry blossoms were ”please make a mask in the building”, but there was no preparation for masking. If you have a mask, you can go to the bath or go to the meal, and you can't be troubled by the place where the mask is placed. Because I don't put the mask directly, I'm safe with myself and others, but I may not have taken measures at Suwako Ryokan Union as well as Suwako En garden. I'm disappointed that this is a measure of infection. The slipper was not replaced. (In the inn of OKU HIDA Onsen go, the slipper was provided, and the name was written, and the slipper was prevented. In addition, it was a hot spring inn in other prefectures, but there was an inn that took measures such as putting clips on each other. The seats were not opposite, but they were different. But if you are a family, what does it mean to make a difference only in the meal at the inn? I think that everyone is doing this because I don't know the composition of individual guests (family friends, etc.). The elevator was limited to two people. In the dressing room of the cherry blossom bath, the basket was placed in １, and it was x and social distance. However, there were no regulations such as prohibition of use, such as use for １ placement. Meals Dinner Kenchin soup, butashabu, tempura (Wakasagi zushi Nasuzu zushi Ebisu) zushi no oshimi? The strawberry and apple strawberry desserts were not particularly delicious. I carried soba over the strawberry year to the room around 9 o'clock. Cold. Breakfast New Year's Day dishes There was a cherry blossoms, and the cherry blossoms were performed. It was good to have anko and kinko. There were many ingredients such as daicon daicon chicken in the tsuruzai boiling, and the roll was dried. There was a noodle, but it was hard and not delicious. In the cherry blossom dessert, there were several chestnuts and dried persimmons ( chestnuts had to peel, no cut, no feeling of hand, dried persimmons were desserts?) In the breakfast, there was an emotion with the live performance of the koto. Room The air conditioner is equipped with a ceiling, so it is not possible to change the angle, and it is an old type that changes the temperature at low middle high. The TV is about ２２ There was a washroom, a hot water toilet seat, and there was no explanation of the rental bath. Stop? There was an open-air bath in the public bath and there was a roof. WIFI was an explanation that it was not about １ F lobby. It is almost impossible in the room. When I arrived, I didn't meet, and the young man had a non contact type thermometer, and it was only the role of pressing the temperature check and the elevator button, and just standing between the receptionist and the elevator There was no greeting, such as ”welcome”, and you are reluctant to talk? I think you're working with the feeling that you can just press the button of the temperature and the elevator, not the consciousness of greeting customers or checking for customers? I work more friendly even in my part-time job. Because of this time, I will omit the room guide, ”there is no person who carries the luggage, and there is no truck, and it seems to be unkind if it thinks that the elderly correspond to the same correspondence. At least, it was possible to make customers choose ”carry or carry by each person”. This action was only seen to protect employees. In the first place, there was no shadow like Nakai, so it was unclear whether there was no reduction in personnel. In addition, it is understood that there is no person who carries the luggage to the exit and the car, but there was no person who came to greet the exit. When such a response was taken, it was only seen that it was doing in the attitude of ”doing nothing anyway” to protect the employee rather than protecting the customer in the corona pass. As a result, I felt that there was no hospitality. No one of the employees would point out, and it seemed that there was no consciousness to act from oneself, and the quality of the inn was seen. HP said, ”I will welcome you with a warm hospitality.” I couldn't feel the warmth at all. I was disappointed to expect cooking because it was the end of the year and the beginning of the year. I thought that the old one was only a building, but I don't know why the evaluation is high. Basically, the inn on the Suwa lake is high, especially at the end of the year and the beginning of the year and the fireworks festival, but this is a cherry blossom. Is it okay to stay in business or stay overnight?

房間設施比較老舊，衞生標準是我這次出行日本各地比價差的。位置周邊有些荒涼。

We intended to check out the Lake Suwa area of Nagano to view the autumn leaves, which were peaking during the time of our visit, and we couldn't think of a better option than to return to the marvelous Sui Suwako ryokan. We were pleased to find that the establishment was as delightful as we remembered it. We stayed here just a year and a half ago, so I won't go into detail regarding every aspect of our stay. Just a few things that bear repeating, however. At just 8 rooms, this ryokan offers an incredibly bespoke experience for each group of guests. Also, each of the rooms has its own in-room free-flowing Onsen (hot springs) bath. And should you want to enjoy the open-air Onsen on the roof (with an awesome view of Lake Suwa, especially at sunset), you can take a dip with members of other genders because swimsuits are not only permitted, but are available to borrow from the ryokan. Service level is very high here. As was the case last time, we were assigned a butler that tended to our room as well as our meals (which are served in a private ko****su room for each and every group of guests.) Our wonderful butler during our previous stay was on leave of absence, but we were delighted to have gotten to know the wonderful Ms. Minri Ko, who was as competent, attentive and knowledgeable as she was warm and charming. The dining experience was sublime. Not every offering was a ”best ever” serving, but that's not what we were after (nor should you seek it here.) While everything really is delicious, what's more impressive is their ability to serve local dishes with local ingredients, which really adds to the overall sense of place. Soba (buckwheat noodles), Basashi (raw horsemeat), Wakasagi (Japanese Smelt from Lake Suwa) Tempura were among the highlights. Breakfast was equally imaginative and well executed - many ryokans really mail in the breakfast - they're all good (how can Japanese breakfasts not be?), but can be the same 'ol thing. At Sui Suwako, they really go the extra mile in bringing out the flavors of the local, seasonal produce and fish from the area. Yet again, we left Sui Suwako with a deeper understanding and appreciation of this part of Japan. And that's part of why we travel to far-flung places, right?

City Hotel in front of Okaya Station, Furekomi Street, 30 seconds from Okaya Station. There is a bus section for the Iida line due to heavy rain, and check-in after 10 o'clock at night. But as soon as you get off the station, you will see the signboard and you will not be lost. However, there is no convenience store in front of the station, and it is a little hard to shop. The hotel has a bicycle for that. The building is not new, but the room is clean and comfortable. The breakfast buffet was rich in variety and enjoyed the taste well.

We decided to stop in Suwa to break up a long drive back to Tokyo. Shinyu looked very good and the price was reasonable. The hotel is renovated and gives a nice modern spa hotel atmosphere. The greeting at the hotel is very nice and the lobby area is beautiful. We felt very welcomed when we arrived. Our room was facing the lake. It was Japanese style with tatami and futons. Nice room, nice view. The public bath was nice. Not huge but felt very good. They have an indoor bath, small outdoor bath, a sauna and a cold bath. Dinner was great, as was breakfast. They were both courses and delicious. Service? Well, this is what makes all the difference. When we book hotels we need to detail my daughter's food allergies which are serious. For this trip we had booked many hotels in a row and for some reason when we booked Shinyu and checked-in we just forgot. It was our fault and when we sat for dinner we saw her prepared meal that she obviously could not eat. The staff at Shinyu didn't miss a beat. The didn't make a big deal about it. No stress. The quickly adjusted and made a wonderful dinner for my daughter and also prepared for her breakfast in similar fashion. Wonderful. Such great service. Maybe the building isn't perfect. But the service was perfect. Shinyu was our last stop on our trip and we left with a smile. Shinyu gets an ”Excellent” from my family.

The annex building is an old building and the rooms are older, but you can use the bathhouse on the 14th floor of the main building. The entire Suwa Lake comes into view, so beautiful and enjoyable. In addition, Shadian has several shuttles to the station, so you don’t need to drag your luggage when you leave in the morning.
