A nice place to stay in and rest after trekking the Nakasendo Trail. The main station is near and a lot of restaurants around. Breakfast was great and there's free ochazuke in the evening.
Just 40 metres from restored Edo-era post town Magome-Juku, Chaya Hotel has simple traditional rooms with futon bedding and a tatami-mat floor.

This is by far the best hostel I’ve ever stayed at. We stayed in a mixed dorm but it was still very private. They had curtains to separate the space so we never had contact with anyone else. The beds were super comfortable and we had all the amenities we needed. Plus it’s right in the heart of this gorgeous little town. They don’t advertise parking but we arrived by car and they let us park at the back of the building. Everything I have to say about this place is positive.

Amazing private Japanese cottage on the side of a hill with sweeping views of the valley below. Incredibly comfortable throughout with delicious multiple tasting course Japanese dinner and breakfast. Their onsen was very refreshing after a day of hiking the Nakasendo trail in 35 degree heat, especially with the enormous glass windows opening into the wood. The host and staff were very attentive, considerate of our poor Japanese and spoke good English. They even taught how to properly wear a yukata and gave us suggestions of places to go on our future travels! Easily the best place we stayed in Japan.

Getting to our ryokan was a simple bus ride to the town from the train station. We were graciously greeted by the host of the ryokan. Delicious traditional dinner with many small dishes, all prepared with care. We started our hike early from Magome to Tsuamgo without many tourists which was a plus to take in the tranquility of the trail. The waterfalls along the way were impactful. Stopped for lunch in Tsumago and had cold soba with grilled fish, simple but delicious.
If you decide to take the bus back to Magome in the late afternoon, be prepared to wait, there may be a line and the bus only runs every half hour, depending on the day.

We stayed in Nakatsugawa in order to spend time walking on the Nakasendo Trail. It was a good home base for doing so!
It’s possible to take a cab or a bus to the post towns to start your walk, or to end it.
Nakatsugawa is also known for its abundant chestnut snacks and sweets which we sampled and truly enjoyed.
It was really nice to be in a part of Japan that has fewer tourists and is more quiet.

This is about Magome Juku - not Nakatsugawa.
This is about Magome Juku - not Nakatsugawa. Frankly whilst it's quaint, picturesque and reasonably true to form it's frankly a bit of a tourist trap and quite crowded. The buildings are almost all souvenir shops or restaurant / tea houses. With a few exceptions many are selling the same stuff, usually at higher prices than can be bought elsewhere. Glad we went but won't return

As previously reviewed, we are still annoyed that we had to argue at length with the staff (over half an hour) to have the sofa bed made up with linen. Their policy apparently is to only provide linen when there are 3 guests sharing the room advertised as 'Double Bed plus Sofa' and confirmed in writing via booking.com that I had booked a room with 2 beds. The hotel was demanding further payment otherwise my friend and I were expected to share the bed. They eventually agreed to make an exception. The air con unit also only had instructions in Japanese and we found it impossible to turn it down The room was very small and the aircon unit sounded all night as if we were flying in an airplane.

Nakatsugawa was a very pleasant town with an excellent shopping centre and good restaurants. Soba noodle seem to be a specialty in many. It was also a handy base for taking a bus to Magome for the Nakasendo Way walk to Tsumago and in the opposite direction to Ochiai, via the historic stone-paved 800m road.

Our primary reason for visiting was the walk from Magome to Tsumago. It's a lovely outing. Very enriching to see Japanese countryside after the big cities of central Honshu. The quality and restfulness of Iwasu-so was an unexpected delight.
Beautiful hotel in a beautiful part of the town, right on the Nakasendo Trail. Convenient parking. So much charm and character and the staff were lovely and super helpful. Dinner and breakfast were both amazing - definitely recommend getting these! Very comfy futon and pillow, decent sizeroom with large cupboard for bags.
The hotel looks like a beautiful little village for preservation. We slept in a small house that is over 150 years old. The staff is lovely, always looking for ways to help. Dinner and breakfast were works of art.
Great location for all services.
Receptiin and bar staff helpful and friendly.
Bonus was the Japanese evening meeting with locals and enjoying conversation with interesting locals.
A well-designed modern hotel with atmospheric communal baths, great breakfasts and most helpful staff. They even assisted with making restaurant reservations in Nakatsugawa!
Dinner and breakfast were japanese style and there were delicious! Location of the hotel is perfect and it's traditional style fits the Nakasendo trail.
