Nestled in the mountains, this hotel provides easy access to a variety of outdoor activities. Guests can enjoy therapeutic hot spring baths, an essential feature that enhances relaxation after a day of exploring. The on-site ryokan (traditional inn) experience allows for an authentic taste of Japanese culture with tatami-matted rooms and futon bedding adding to the charm.

The hotel’s location is ideal for adventure enthusiasts. Just a short drive away are attractions like the Tanigawa-dake Ropeway, which offers breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape; and Takaragawa Onsen, perfect for those seeking additional restorative hot springs in a picturesque setting. For the more adventurous, white-water rafting on the Tone River or hiking along Mount Tanigawa’s trails provide thrilling experiences.

While Matsunoi excels in providing a serene environment and cultural immersion, some travelers may find its remote location less convenient if seeking urban amenities or nightlife options. However, this seclusion is often considered a pro by those wanting to escape city life.
