Dormy Inn Matsumoto Natural Hot Spring

Dormy Inn Matsumoto Natural Hot Spring

8/10 Good
"Convenient location just 8mns from the train station. We also found good restaurants just minutes away and the Matsumoto castle is close by as well as the YAYOI KUSAMA Museum. Rooms are on the small side and plastic shower cabin adjacent to the toilet are not typically associated with hotels in this price range. Breakfast had a good array of Japanese food choices and some western options too. Staff is very friednly an helpful. Onsen is quite nice with a hot bath inside and another outside. There is a cold pool and a sauna."
