Sui Suwako, hotel in Shimo-suwa

Featuring free WiFi, Sui Suwako is located in Suwa, 2.5 km from Suwa-Lake. Guests can enjoy the on-site bar.

If I would have to sum up my stay in one word it will be Perfection. I have been to a lot of ryokans, and this is one of the bests, if not the best. The moment you first enter the ryokan, and take off your shoes, you are greeted by the amazing staff with tea and local handmade treat, before being lead to your suite. The suite itself is beautifully decorated, spacious and comes with amazing view of lake Suwa from both the common area and the private onsen. Both dinner and breakfast, which are made from seasonal and local ingredients and change daily, were delicious and an amazing experience. The staff were kind to make onigiri, rice balls, from the dinner's leftover rice and deliver them to the suite. At night the first floor tea room becomes a bar serving amazing local sake, and other drinks, along with food. The roof mixed bath was one of the stay highlights, the amazing view of lake Suwa and the surrounding towns as the sun set, painting everything in orange and purple, and then when it became dark and all the lights were turned on was beautiful. The sunrise also was worth waking up for.

    After two weeks of campervan we wanted to end our Japan trip with a ryokan stay. We are very happy we booked this place! Most amazingly was the private outdoor onsen. Rooms were big and extremely clean. There was some nice matcha tea and hot water provided, so we could enjoy the little tea room! Also there were yukatas we could borrow. Staff was also extremely kind!

    Great service, there's an outdoor and indoor onsen. The lady helped me with her food recommendations around the area. There's also an elevator so you don't have to carry your luggage up the ryokan! Please read the instructions provided especially for which onsen you can go to (so you'll have to remember the Japanese characters for Man and Woman) and know when the outdoor onsen is available to guests and when it is available for private use. I used a car so this place was good for me. It had a lot of parking.

    I had the best night in Gingetsu. After onsen, I've slept like a baby. The tatami beds were really comfy, especially pilows filled with beans! The room was really beautiful.
