Kataoka Hotels, Shiojiri

"My japanese is currently at an N5/N4 level but the staff spoke great English. Great place to stay"

"塩尻駅の目の前なのでとても便利です。"

"I came with little expectations, but was really pleased with this hotel. The outdoor onsen is really nice. The corridor is a bit noisy when someone walks by. Some dust and spider webs in the top shelfs but nothing really bad"

"I don’t believe this accommodation justify the cost if you will stay at this property without dinner and breakfast. I was able to reduce the expense for a night to c. $55 by using Expedia credits equal to $30, but if I didn’t have it, I would recommend to stay another one. Far from the center of Matsumoto Nothing was around the property Nothing would be provided to kids, such as amenities, welcoming tea and snacks, basically. The only nicer point was hot spring with good scene"

"Room was clean, toiletries were complete, there’s also provision of sleepwear. Staff were very friendly and helpful."

"Excellent amenities, friendly staff and fun little town. "

"House is clean and owner is very friendly "

"Loved the area"

"We stayed in this ryokan for a family trip. The city is unknown to non-Japanese people, but the people at the ryokan were so kind and helpful. Sometimes it was not easy to communicate as their English was not the best, but they tried their best to help. The meals were awesome, and the bath places were great as well. We were totally satisfied and I strongly recommend this place."

"Amazing stay at this ryokan. The place is very quiet and zen. The onsen is great with indoor/outdoor spaces. I recommanded strongly"

"the staff was so sweet and helped us out with all of our needs, even though i was on vacation his kindness made it felt like we were back home. The rooms were small however it was only meant for sleeping and the futons were SO comfortable"

"Lovely character of this Traditional Japanese Guest House. "

"BBQが20:00までなのが残念でしたが、それ以外は広さも綺麗さも完璧でした！"

"Very easy process to self check in, room spotless, great free drinks options, excellent breakfast (would recommend getting double portion of 'toast', which is delivered to your door at specified time (you must choose order before 11pm). Great location next to lake front. Would def stay again 😎"

"部屋が古くて狭いので2部屋使わせてくれたが不便"

"Good"
