“I felt very welcomed by the lovely and kind staff, and enjoyed an amazing breakfast before going out to explore Hakodate”
The breakfast was amazing, the staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, and the onsen was quiet and clean. The courtyard garden is also beautifully arranged, I can only imagine how gorgeous it looks during the summer and autumn months.

Serene and silent environment, beautiful and comfortable accommodation. The staff was very welcoming, eager to help and clarify everything and provided a very good service. Everything is organized to be convenient and comfortable for guests, so they can relax and enjoy. Traditional breakfast served in the morning was delicious and full of new things to try. I also enjoyed the ryokan's onsen a lot!

“An authentic ryokan experience”
The ryokan was situated in the middle of the city and so was surrounded by taller buildings. Thus, the onsen and rooms didn't have much of a view but the ryokan's inner courtyard was very pretty. Nevertheless, it is still a good place to experience an authentic Japanese ryokan.

“Simply to best, but far from everything”
Staff was excellent and extremely attentive. Whole of the ryokan was clean and tidy. Rooms were very spacious and well decorated. The included dinner and breakfast was a great opportunity to experience authentic Japanese dishes, some we loved and some were a bit harsh on our poor westernised palettes, but that was the point.

“Relaxing stay in a traditional Japanese inn”
Ichinomatsu is a traditional ryokan with a hot spring bath. I love the atmosphere in this type of lodging - very relaxing and with people ready to take care of the logistics around you. Breakfast and dinner served to perfection in your room. Short stroll to a big bath for the guests - perfectly maintained. View to a small japanese style garden. Very relaxing two days.

“Our stay was a wonderful way to learn about Japanese traditions and culture.”
We had a wonderful stay at Ryokan Ichinomatso. The staff were very kind and professional, and made us feel so welcome. The food was delicious and deserving of a Michelin star! Our hostess was absolutely lovely and very warm and kind. She gave us some excellent recommendations for local activities. The onsen was very relaxing.

“A trip to Hakodate with my pregnant wife.”
It was very Japanese - as I set the theme of this trip being ‘feel as much of Japan as possible’ I was satisfied with what I paid for. My pregnant wife found it easy to relax in the comfortable room as well as the bath. Overall, I would find no problem recommending this place.
