Notsu Ryokan

Matsue

Located 10 minutes walk from the station overlooking the river. Very friendly staff. Clean environment. Bathrooms including (our) Onsen inside the structure. Dinner and breakfast according to Japanese traditions (all very tasty). They do not speak English but equipped with a voice translator. Recommended!

It's all good.

Stayed there three nights. Very welcoming and helpful staff, really very friendly!! Good food, Japanese style, no western components or fusion, awesome Shimane beef. Nice Onsen, not really big but clean. Location ok, about 5 min on foot from station, parking available, points if interest not too far away.
Two things I did not like, therefore only four points: carpet in the corridors HAVE to be exchanged, partly worn down to the bottom and dark instead of the original colour, gave the ryokan a slightly shabby impression which it does not deserve.
Our room (501) was big enough, well equipped, excellent futons, clean and actually ok, but it faced the street and I heared cars and voices from the street until around 11pm and as of 5.30am although I used wax ear plugs. Therefore only 4 of 5 stars. 

Good ryokan

The exterior looks rather ugly but once home it's superb. Located 10mns from the train station and 10mns from the restaurant district.30mns from the castle.

It's beautiful

Stayed just one night at this ryokan, and what a pleasure it was, the room is very well kept, and with a nice decoration. A short walk from the train station, but since the sights are not far, we walked to the castle also to see the lantern festival at night. They ask you at check in for your dinner time and during dinner they set your bed at the tatami, so when you come back you are ready to sleep. The staff does not speak a lot of English but I managed just fine.

Restorative rest

The first room we were shown was tiny and barely fit a futon and had no shower. When we complained they showed us to another room that was 3 times the size, had a bath and great views over the river. The older section of the hotel needs to be updated as it’s unsuitable for couples, maybe ok for single people who bathe in the onsen. The newer section is lovely.  The staff were lovely.

Ask for a room in the new section

Excellent location near the train station and the castle in a quiet small town (a short break from the big metropolises). Warm home, personal with little care. Spacious room, river view and the departure of the sinners in the morning. The onzen on the 4th floor is very well furnished and has many care products. Dinner and breakfast are refined and delicious, the waitress explains and helps us with the order of meals and the accompaniment of meals. Very nice souvenir.

Excellent in every way

Don't be fooled by the outside! This ryokan might look outdated but the service and amenities were fantastic! The hosts were always trying to help us the best they could. 

Very spacious bedroom on the 5th floor, overlooking the city. Lovely tatami mats, nice toilet and shower, and different sections to our room. The onsen was very enjoyable with an outdoor and indoor bath. 

We had a bento style dinner, which was great, but I loved the breakfast! 
The hotel is close to the station and just a few minutes walk to the main attractions. 

Fantastic bedroom and practical location

Ryokan has a good price-to-value ratio. Sober and comfortable room (without a view though) with everything necessary, including a bathroom. There is also an onsen on the 4th floor it is appreciated. Very good Japanese breakfast with local specialties. One incident however: some reception staff don't speak English at all, so it's not easy to get along, as we wanted breakfast we didn't have it on the 2nd day (we have to order it the day before), at that point we were quite angry.

I'm good.

I reserved a tatami room with two western beds and got one on the first floor. The room was mostly quiet (other than a bit of construction outside in the morning). It looked beautiful and the bed and pillow was very comfortable. I wish I could have stayed here for more than two nights. The onsen with rotenburo overlooking the river was also great and worth experiencing. The water wasn't super hot so I could enjoy it without overheating. 

The location is right on the river in a very walkable part of Matsue. It is an easy 5 minute walk to the station and this location puts you quite near an area across the bridge with many fine restaurants. Keep walking and the castle isn't too far away. It's a National Treasure and on par with Matsumoto as the finest in Japan in my opinion.

So so good

Loved it, the hosts were lovely and very polite and helpful. The room was beautiful, clean, well equipped, comfortable, and big.
Really great location too, pretty much everything you want you get. We were happy.
The onsen is wonderful too.
