Great inn on the Nakasendo trail. Just about 1.5 km from the Tsumago post town. Great dinner to round off the day too.

This is a conscientious accommodation in all respects.The food was delicious, the salt-grilled sweetfish was exquisite, and the homemade pickles were so delicious that I wanted to take them home in Tupperware!I still want to use it.

Lovely inn with nice garden, lounge and onsen. Very nice dinner and (Japanese) breakfast. Good location on Nakasendo trail but outside Tsumago itself. Great service and even a lift to the station in the morning. Highly recommended.

My experience was unforgettable. Traveling along the Nakasendo I decided to stay in Tsumago for one night. Maruya Inn is located just before Tsumago coming from Magome. Both the exterior and interior are typical Japanese. The simple and well-kept room overlooks the main road and at night you can hear the roar of the river. During your stay you are offered all the essential comforts as well as a comfortable yukata to wear after bathing. It is also possible to admire a splendid garden and sip a coffee on the veranda. Excellent food. Everything very nice and clean. The owner was very kind and helpful.

22.11.02Stroll from Magome to Tsumago 🚶‍♂️The wooden dog figurine on the verandah is so cute that I end up taking a picture of it every time 😊 It's soothing ♪It's both playful and works as art. If I have a chance, I would definitely like to stay there⭐
