Matsumoto Hotel Kagetsu

Matsumoto Hotel Kagetsu

10/10 Excellent
"We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Hotel Kagetsu in Matsumoto. From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome with their warm, friendly, and attentive service. The room exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, incredibly spacious, and thoughtfully designed with a unique split-level layout that made it feel even larger. Having two sinks was a great convenience, and the amenities provided were excellent. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring. The location is fantastic—you really can't go wrong staying here. It's convenient to Matsumoto Castle, restaurants, shops, and everything you need while still offering a peaceful atmosphere. What truly made our stay exceptional was the outstanding customer service. The staff went above and beyond to help us arrange luggage forwarding to our next hotel, even though we requested it on very short notice. Despite the language barrier, they were incredibly patient, resourceful, and determined to make everything work. Their kindness and willingness to help made a lasting impression on us, and we were so grateful for all of their efforts. We would highly recommend Hotel Kagetsu to anyone visiting Matsumoto. It offers beautiful accommodations, an excellent location, less than 10 minute walk to Matsumoto Castle, and some of the best hospitality we've experienced in Japan. We would gladly stay here again!"
