I recently stayed at Thank You Hippo Inn in Matsumoto for a few days. The hostel is located in a quiet neighborhood just steps from the castle, making it the perfect spot for sightseeing. The beds are spacious capsules that offer great privacy, with reading lights and plugs for convenience. The hostel also provides a washing machine and free oatmeal for breakfast. The atmosphere is incredibly friendly and laid-back, making it feel like a home away from home.

We had a fantastic stay at this traditional Japanese inn. The location was ideal, just a short walk to Matsumoto Castle and close to the train station. The family room was perfect for us, with bunk beds for the kids and a separate space for us parents. The staff was incredibly helpful and accommodating, even upgrading one guest to a private room when they fell ill. The cozy atmosphere, comfortable futon beds, and homemade chocolate cake made our stay even more enjoyable.
The lack of a dryer for clothes was a minor inconvenience, but there was a coin laundry nearby.

I recently stayed at a traditional Japanese style inn in Matsumoto called Thank You Hippo Inn. It was a truly cozy and beautiful experience. The interior and furniture were designed in a traditional Japanese style, creating a lovely atmosphere. The beds were incredibly comfortable, providing me with the best sleep I've ever had at a hostel. The location couldn't be better, as you can see Matsumoto castle as soon as you step outside of the inn. The friendly owner gave me great recommendations for my trip and even helped me find a nice leather wallet. Additionally, I was able to borrow bicycles for free and explore the area easily.
Everything about my stay at Thank You Hippo Inn was great! 😊

Great location right across from the castle and within walking distance of restaurants and bars. The hostel has a cozy and homely atmosphere with a nice lounge area and tatami flooring in the dormitory. The owner was friendly and helpful, even going the extra mile to drive a guest to a nearby museum on the back of his motorbike.
Some guests staying in a room near the reception area had a disruptive experience due to loud noise late at night, causing a lack of sleep. There were also issues with hot water in the shower and only one toilet and shower available for the entire building.
