Ryokan in Suwa District

"An excellent resort for an unique onsen experience and variety of food. This property is popular amongst travellers with young kids."

"Such a unique experience, you truly unplug while you’re here. "

"Our stay at Byaku was one of the most memorable experiences on our Japan trip. The hotel exemplifies Japanese artistry in so many ways, from hospitality to cuisine to design. It was a unique opportunity to stay in an historic region in a beautifully renovated historic Japanese structure. "

"Absolute gem! Beautiful scenery, fantastic hotel, fabulous service and delicious food. Definitely recommend! "

"Food was excellent and staff were very friendly and helpful, although didn't speak much english. The only downside was the facility was a bit worn -stained carpets, peeling wallpaper, and musty smell "

"It was a traditional ryokan on the edge of town."

"We enjoyed our stay! Friendly staff!"

"Really enjoyed our short stay and visiting this area. Walkable distance from the station and lake. A full Japanese-style breakfast was beautifully presented with some alternatives also on offer - fruit, eggs, bacon etc. We visited in May when the hotel and Suwa generally were very quiet so we were able to enjoy the hotel facilitie - the modern reception area and onsen. Good size room with twin beds. Go for one with a lake view if possible."
