Info
Summary of reviewsThe Celecton Matsumoto is a highly praised hotel that offers a well-rounded and positive experience for its guests. One of its standout features is its prime location, situated just a short walk from Matsumoto Castle and close to various attractions such as the Nawate shopping street and dining options. The picturesque views of the castle from some rooms add to the charm, although the 15-20 minute walk from Matsumoto Station can be a bit challenging with luggage.

Breakfast at the hotel is affordable, filling and features fresh morning bread, curry, horse mackerel and jyako rice. Despite some guests wishing for more variety, the simple yet satisfying mix of Japanese and Western options and friendly service, ensure a pleasant start to the day.

While dining options near the hotel are somewhat limited, the comfortable amenities and serene atmosphere more than compensate. Some guests have noted a nearby "Hotto Motto" restaurant as convenient, but the scarcity of other nearby eateries means that venturing further for dinner might be necessary.

Rooms are consistently clean, modern and well-maintained. Although some rooms are compact, they offer cozy and adequately equipped spaces with stylish interiors and calming, photo-friendly wallpapers. Many rooms provide beautiful views of Matsumoto Castle and the soundproof environment ensures a peaceful stay. The hotel’s public bath further enhances relaxation.

The staff at The Celecton Matsumoto receive high marks for their friendly, accommodating and professional service. Guests appreciate the front desk team’s courtesy, efficient assistance and helpful local tips. The team's considerate and diligent approach significantly enhances the overall guest experience.

Parking, however, presents some challenges. With limited and often full parking spaces, guests sometimes need to park further away. The gravel lot managed by the hotel is not ideal and parking fees were noted as high. Despite this, the availability of multiple parking lots around the area provides some convenience.

The hotel is family-friendly, offering a secure and pleasant stay for guests of all ages. Facilities such as children's chairs and plates in the breakfast area and overall helpfulness toward young guests are appreciated. The comfort of the beds also stands out with many guests noting their spaciousness and quality, ensuring a restful night’s sleep.

Accessibility is another strength with the hotel providing features such as barrier-free rooms and spacious bathrooms to accommodate guests with disabilities comfortably. Easy access to major attractions and public transportation enhances its convenience further.

Centrally situated, the hotel is renowned for its close proximity to Matsumoto Castle, a mere 2-6 minute walk away, making it perfect for those who want to immerse themselves in its historical ambiance. The view from some rooms even offers picturesque scenes of the castle, enhancing the overall experience for guests.

While the hotel is somewhat distant from Matsumoto Station with a walk of roughly 15-20 minutes, the journey can be quite manageable, especially given the wealth of nearby attractions. Guests appreciate the convenient access to both the castle and the downtown area, including the Nawate shopping street and various dining options. The quiet neighborhood is another plus, ensuring a peaceful stay despite the central location.

Though the walk from the train station might be a bit challenging with luggage, the benefits of staying near Matsumoto Castle and the city center outweigh this minor inconvenience. The hotel's favorable position also offers easy reachability to other significant spots, such as Shishin Shrine and Kaichi School. Overall, The Celecton Matsumoto provides a strategic base for sightseeing and enjoying the cultural richness of the city.

Breakfast
The Celecton Matsumoto offers a breakfast experience that has garnered a range of opinions, but several positive aspects stand out. Many guests have found the breakfast to be affordable, filling and delicious, emphasizing the quality of the morning bread, which is often praised as fresh and enjoyable. The curry, horse mackerel and jyako rice also receive high marks for their delightful flavors. Breakfast is described as simple yet satisfying with a good balance of Japanese and Western options, although some guests noted a lack of variety and expressed a desire for more diverse dishes. The staff service during breakfast has been commended for being friendly and efficient.

On the downside, a few guests were disappointed by the limited selection and lack of international choices. Complaints included the early breakfast hours and the time it took for refills on certain items like curry and soup. Some reviews suggested improving menu diversity, adding more sides and offering stronger coffee. Despite these critiques, the general consensus is that the breakfast at The Celecton Matsumoto provides good value, especially when considering the price and is a pleasant start to the day for most guests.

Dinner
The Celecton Matsumoto offers a serene atmosphere with a large bath perfect for relaxation. However, many guests have noted that dining options are limited around the hotel. Some reviews highlight the convenience of a nearby "Hotto Motto" restaurant, yet finding other suitable places for dinner can be a bit inconvenient due to the scarcity of nearby eateries. Guests often find themselves needing to venture a bit further for dinner or consider alternatives as there are few restaurants in close proximity. While breakfast could benefit from more local specialties, the overall dining experience could be enhanced if the hotel provided dinner options on-site. Additionally, the lack of vending machines for snacks or sweets has been pointed out as an area for improvement. Despite these dining limitations, the comfortable amenities and peaceful environment at The Celecton Matsumoto remain commendable.

Parking
The Celecton Matsumoto's parking situation has garnered mixed feedback from its guests. There are multiple parking lots available around the area, but they can often be full and the spaces are limited. Some guests found the nearby parking very convenient, while others noted that they had to park in places further from the hotel, which proved to be inconvenient—especially in bad weather or when carrying belongings.

Booking a parking spot in advance is advisable as the hotel itself offers only a few spaces, which quickly get occupied. Additionally, finding the parking lots can be confusing, particularly at night with some guests mentioning challenges locating them.

The parking fee of around 1,000 yen per night was noted as somewhat expensive with some suggesting that free parking would have been preferable. The hotel’s own parking lot, described as gravel, posed additional difficulties such as being bumpy and poorly maintained, leading to a subpar experience for some guests.
