Hamanoyu, hotel in Shimo-suwa

4.9 miles from Canora Hall in Suwa, Hamanoyu features accommodations with access to a sauna, hot spring bath, and public bath. This 4-star ryokan offers a 24-hour front desk and an elevator.

Hamanoyu feels like an old grand dame from another era. The staff do their best to keep up the quality and they do a good job. My room was small and cute. The sauna and hot spring facilities were well-maintained and felt comfortable and relaxing. I only got breakfast, but it was more than adequate. I feel that not enough. People are visiting that part of Nagano these days, and that tourism is suffering, which is ironic because much of the rest of Japan appears to be booming. I hope, I can do my small part to help get the word out.

Fukashiso, hotel in Shimo-suwa

Guests at Fukashiso can enjoy relaxing in the spacious public/private baths and request for massage services.

We came for our honeymoon & we had the best time at Fukashisho. I wish we had another night there. The hospitality was 10/10. My favorite place from all the hotels & ryokans in Japan.

    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.
