Property information
Greetings,
This is Matsumuraya, a popular and traditionally constructed Japanese 'ryokan' hotel from the Meiji period in the Kawagoe ’Kurazukuri' area. The location is excellent, set right next to the Ichiban-gai of the Kurazukuri street, allowing quick access to the main spots!
While used also by tourists, travelling business personnel make up many of the guests. There's also a 200-yen-per day bicycle rental setup, so please feel free to help yourself.
Recently, renting and wearing a kimono while walking around the Kawagoe area is very popular. My acquaintance runs a kimono-rental store, so for those who are interested, please feel free to apply.
