Got stuck in Matsumoto for the night due to poor weather affecting train timetables, but Couch Potatoe Hostel made that night very enjoyable. Staff were super helpful and recommended things for me to do while I visited.

I spent 4 nights in Popotel Three. It was very nice, comfortable and very clean. The owner is very friendly and make you feel like home. Communication before arrival was perfect. Clear instructions to find the house. I highly recommend this place if you want to explore Matsumoto and surroundings (10-15 min max from the train station). I would just add a small lamp next to the bed in Room A 😁

Extremely cosy accomodation! It's full of fun and entertaining stuff - you really at risk of spending several hours exploring the place. Location is great near the Matsumoto Castle and a stone throw to other main sights. It has everything inside you need for your stay. And it's spacious to accommodate maybe 8 or even 10 people. So if you are just 4 like we - then you live almost like in palace.

Such amazing value for money! We had six of us staying in their family bunk room and it was so comfortable and warm. The onsen, although small, was lovely after a day exploring Matsumoto. Attached to the hostel is a fantastic restaurant and the staff booked us a table when we checked in. Highly recommended. Another bonus is the free parking. Would come back here for sure.

All hostels in Matsumoto

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

Brian and the staff made everything so the guest would feel at home! The shared spaces are very inviting. The kitchen, the showers, and the dorms are very clean and comfortable. The hostel is in a great location near the JR Station but also in a queit area near the river

Very friendly hostel, in a great location not too far from Matsumoto castle. Rooms are Japanese style, with lots of space in the dorms. I had a large suitcase with me and there was plenty of storage space for it beside my futon! Lovely staff as well, great vibe in the hostel overall.

The hostel is in a great location and so quiet. The staff are really helpful, but best of all you could feel the history of the place. We are a family of four (two boys aged 13 & 11) and all thought it was the best hostel we’ve stayed at - friendlier, more fun and better than many hotels. Would stay there happily again.
