forumWhat families say

Rakuten Travel rating 4.35 out of 5 (1,259 reviews). Guests traveling with children praise how clean the front desk and rooms are and the well-stocked amenities, and one family reported that their daughter said she wanted to stay again, suggesting the children enjoyed it too. Several guests on three-generation trips report being satisfied with the meals. On the other hand, some guests report that the bath is small and that the changing room felt cramped and crowded at certain times of day.

Overview

Notsu Ryokan is an onsen ryokan on the bank of the Ohashi River, a 7-minute walk from Matsue Station. The separate communal baths for men and women, Kawamo no Yu and Yuhi no Yu, each have an indoor bath and an open-air bath fed by Matsue Shinjiko Onsen. Children cannot co-sleep in the 8-tatami, 6-tatami and 4.5-tatami Japanese-style tatami rooms, but up to 2 co-sleeping children are welcome in the special room Sen. A kids' meal is available as well.

Rooms

All 20 rooms are non-smoking Japanese-style tatami rooms or Japanese-Western rooms. On the town side, the 4.5-tatami room (10 sq m, for 1 guest), the 6-tatami rooms (12-19 sq m, for 2 guests) and the 8-tatami rooms (22-23 sq m, for 2 guests) cannot be used by co-sleeping children. Reaching these rooms and the special room Tsukumo involves some stairs up to the 2nd and 3rd floors. On the river side, the 10-tatami rooms (34-40 sq m, for 5 guests) are prized for their view over the Ohashi River. The 21-tatami room (51.1 sq m) is a large room for 5 to 8 guests, and up to 2 children on the facility-use fee can stay there. The special room Sen (46.8 sq m) is a Japanese-Western room made up of a dining area, a Japanese-style tatami room and a bedroom with twin beds; it comes with its own semi-open-air bath and sauna, and up to 2 co-sleeping children can stay. The special room Tsukumo (43 sq m) is a connecting Japanese-Western type on the 2nd floor, reached by stairs.

Dining

Dinner is served from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. (last start 7:30 p.m.) and breakfast from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. (last start 8:30 a.m.), in the dining area or the banquet hall. Breakfast comes every morning with Matsue's celebrated shijimi clam miso soup, a box of small dishes in six compartments, and white fish grilled on a ceramic plate and topped with moromi miso. On plans with one night and two meals, dinner for elementary school children (at 80% of the adult rate) has two or three fewer dishes than the adult meal, and dinner for children under school age (at 50% of the adult rate) is a kids' meal. A kids' meal can be arranged for 2,800 yen before service charge and tax.

Baths and Onsen

On the 4th floor are separate communal baths for men and women: Kawamo no Yu for men and Yuhi no Yu for women, each with an indoor bath and an open-air bath. The water comes from the Matsue Shinjiko Onsen source and is clear and colorless; the spring is a sodium-calcium sulfate and chloride spring, with water added and a recirculating filtration system. Hours are from 4 p.m. to midnight and from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m.; the men's and women's baths are not swapped, and the baths cannot be used from midnight to 6 a.m. The age limit for mixed bathing is under 6, so children younger than that may also use the bath of the opposite gender with a guardian. The special room Sen has its own semi-open-air bath and sauna, but that semi-open-air bath is not an onsen.

Family-Friendly Features

Children can stay, but co-sleeping children cannot be accommodated in the 8-tatami, 6-tatami or 4.5-tatami Japanese-style tatami rooms. The room where co-sleeping is clearly possible is the special room Sen, which takes up to 2 co-sleeping children. The 21-tatami room accepts up to 2 children on the facility-use fee, but whether co-sleeping itself is allowed there is not stated, so please confirm when booking. Reaching the guest rooms involves some stairs up to the 2nd and 3rd floors (the 8-tatami, 6-tatami and 4.5-tatami rooms and Tsukumo), and the ryokan is not barrier-free, so take care if you are moving around with a stroller. All 20 rooms are non-smoking, and electronic cigarettes are prohibited as well. A humidifier is available to borrow for your room. Pets cannot stay, with the exception of guide dogs and service dogs.

Access

The ryokan is about a 7-minute walk (500 m) from the north exit of JR Matsue Station, and no shuttle service is offered. There are 22 parking spaces, free of charge on a first-come, first-served basis (no reservations, standard-size cars only), with one space held per room. Late checkout is available until 11 a.m.
