This time, I wanted to enjoy the hot springs at my own pace, so I made a reservation at Gingetsu (one night stay, no midnight snack, breakfast included). It was a 5-minute walk from Suwa Taisha Shimosha and Akimiya (15 minutes from Shimosha and Harumiya), so it was the perfect location for those who love shrines and temples.
It's located in a quiet town, so it's a quiet and calm location. It's a hot spring inn with a total of about 15 rooms, so it wasn't crowded and I was able to enjoy the hot springs at my own pace in the indoor bath and the open-air bath (private time available).
The hot spring had a very soft texture, and the temperature was just right, so it didn't sting my skin.
When I was wondering what to do for dinner, when I checked in, the staff showed me a map of Shimo-Suwa and recommended some nearby restaurants.
I got the impression that they were proactive in providing information about the neighborhood, perhaps to encourage people to visit nearby shops. If you have any questions, feel free to ask the front desk.
The room's refrigerator was stocked with delicious charcoal water, and the thermos was stocked with hot water, so it was nice to be able to hydrate my tired body and have hot tea right away when I had time to calm down.
I was expecting breakfast to be something simple like rice, miso soup, natto, and hot spring water*, but there was a wide variety of dishes, including salad, several small side dishes, and grilled fish, and I was able to enjoy local ingredients, so it was a very satisfying breakfast.
I think this is a historic hot spring inn, so there are stains on the carpet in the hallway and wear on the sliding door handles in the rooms that have come with age, but the shoji screens are not torn and the hotel is very clean despite its age, and I was very happy with the price range.
I would like to use it again when I visit Shimo-Suwa.

Location is great, it is just on the main road and by the lake. I remember there was a Lawon convenient store not far away when we drove past. We stayed there for 1 night.
I highly doubt if we were given the wrong room type, as I booked a room that can see the full Suwa Lake, but the room we have got is at the corner. It is because of the cherry blossom season, there are so many mosquitos outside so we couldn't open any window. According to the information provided by the hotel, the mosquitos don't bite human, but create stains on clothings.
Anyway, the room has a private onsen. It was quite small, and look a bit old. The water is very hot, though I couldn't smell any sulfur so it is not a real hot spring. As the windows can't be opened, so it is a quite stuffy inside the bathroom. The room has equipped with all amenities, but no bottled water. The hotel mentioned the water is drinkable from the tab. The room is quite clean and spacious. The mattress is quite nice, it was good for taking a rest after a whole day trip. We chose the meal package (breakfast and dinner). They were both Japanese style with a lot of dishes and options. Food is great. Nagano is not a place that produces meat, so mainly there are a lot of vegetables.
With the price we paid for, the hotel services, food and everything is quite reasonable. However, the hotel is a bit old. Nothing is special other than providing a clean room to sleep.
Extremely satisfying hotel.
In the area of Shanghai, this hot spring hotel is considered one of the highest.
First of all, the environment of the independent small courtyard is very elegant, and all 8 rooms are facing the beautiful lake view, especially the beautiful scenery under the sunset, which is really pleasing to the eye.
Secondly, the room is not only large, but also has a separate hot spring pool. Everything in the room is fine, and it is no problem to come here empty-handed. Toiletries, razors, various skin care and hair products, all have. You can also go to the mixed bath hot springs on the top floor of the 6th floor. The idea here is very chic, when entering the hot spring, men and women must wear a special clothes, similar to swimsuits.
Again, each room has a separate dining room, and walk past it for three seconds.
Then there is a local bar on the ground floor that offers locally produced sake.
Finally, walking across the small road is to visit the lake, and you can walk to the station in 8 minutes, which is really convenient. There are many restaurants around, no need to worry.
It's conveniently located near the station. The rooms and amenities are just like a regular business hotel, but the breakfast buffet had a variety of options and was delicious. I'd like to stay here again if I have the chance.
