    We stayed as a family of 4 at Magome Chaya for 2 nights while exploring the Nakasendo during Autumn. We experienced their breakfast and dinner services, and both can only be described as two of the best meals we had in our entire stay in Japan....

    Good communication pre-check-in and smooth check-in/out. Love dinner and breakfast, so I guess it is worth paying an additional fee for it. The establishment is clean. Overall, I had a good stay here.

    Magome Chaya was wonderfully located right on the Nakasendo in the heart of beautiful Magome. The Kaiseki dinner and breakfast was delicious, and we were thankful our dietary needs were able to be accommodated for.
