"I really enjoyed my stay here! I had a Sanada Yukimura-style room, beautiful and cozy. The hot tubs are wonderful, with views of Bessho Onsen, and the autumn colors were so vibrant. Breakfast and dinner were also fantastic! Thank you!"

"I stayed overnight without meals included, arrived late at night, and left on the first train of the day, but I felt a sense of peace and tranquility that only a small, cozy place can offer. The landlady was very kind, and the sulfurous hot spring water was wonderful."

"The ambiance is charmingly antique, with meticulous attention to detail in every corner. The rooms offer superb views, the outdoor hot spring is delightful, and the overall environment is comfortable. The food, including two meals a day, was of good quality. The service was friendly and professional, and their farewell gesture was a testament to traditional Japanese culture."

Saihokuso Inn

Ryokan Tsuruya

"Our lodging in Bessho Onsen was "Ryokan Tsuruya," a rather retro hot spring inn founded in the Genroku period of the Edo period. However, the cuisine is highly acclaimed, and the hot spring water is 100% natural spring water, so we booked it. The low price was also quite attractive... The gabled building's exterior is beautiful. This time, we reserved a Japanese-style room with 10-12 tatami mats. The room is retro, full of Showa-era charm, but it's kept clean and comfortable. The shoji screen decorations and alcove design are wonderful. The black telephone and CRT TV are full of retro charm. There's also a toilet and sink in the room. The hot spring water is 100% natural spring water, with no added water, so the landlady warned us, "Be careful, it's hot," but for me, it was just the right temperature. The open-air bath was a little cooler, but it was also comfortable. It had a sulfurous scent and the water quality was excellent. There is also a free private bath, but since we were staying on a weekday and only four groups were staying, we didn't meet anyone in the hot spring. Meals at Tsuruya Ryokan are served in your room. The menu included Shinshu salmon sashimi, carp simmered in sweet syrup, earthenware pot steamed dishes, and A5-grade beef shabu-shabu. It wasn't flashy, but it was delicious♪ Dessert was fruit compote. It was a very satisfying dinner. Breakfast was also served in the room. It was a little simple, with simmered simmered dishes, salad, whitebait, hot springs*, etc., but maybe this is fine. I prefer this kind of nostalgic, rustic inn to a half-renovated inn!"
