I would rate Funaya an 11 if I could. I have stayed in some nice onsen ryokans before but this place is next level in every aspect. Everything about my stay here made me say "wow". The visual aesthetic and atmosphere of the building is super charming, a bit dated some might say but to me it just spoke to the long history of the place. The staff are friendly, helpful, and the service was impeccable. I found that their manner was a little more human than other high end ryokans I've stayed at where the staff can be a bit robotic sticking to their script all the time. Our room was massive, literally the biggest ryokan room I've ever seen. 12 tatami mats for the main room, another 8 off to the side in another room - plus the sitting alcove by the window, meditation/writing room, not to mention the bathroom with double sink, separate adjoining washroom with wooden Japanese bathtub, a separate toilet, and a substantial hallway linking it all up. Oh, that was just the "standard Japanese style room" too. We also had a nice little balcony with a view of the garden and the castle in the distance. The garden is a real highlight, beautiful, tranquil, there's even a foot bath. I really wish we'd been able to spend more time in it but it rained the day we were there. Meals were fantastic. Set kaiseki for dinner, which I don't normally like, but my partner and I just swapped things we didn't like and we were able to really enjoy it. Breakfast we had the choice of western or Japanese style - we had one of each and both were great. Nice not to have to deal with cold food at the buffet for a change. The actual baths are top notch, probably equal best I've used. Lots of space to wash, a couple of separate baths for soaking, and outdoor baths as well to cool off on the night air. Water temperature was perfect. We were able to leave our car with them for a bit after checking out to go for one last wander in Dogo.

Lovely part-tatami room in a ryokan in the Dogo Onsen area of Matsuyama. The location is great with the Dogo Onsen Honkan, shopping area and tram stop all within 5 minutes' walk. There is also easy access by tram to sights and restaurants in central Matsuyama, as well as Matsuyama Station. Breakfast was great, the onsen and garden were nice for relaxing and the staff were helpful.

best accomodation I’ve had in the whole 4 weeks of staying in japan. staff are attentive and polite, excellent onsite facilities - including onsen which I loved. beautifully decorated interior of hotel and the rooms, only stayed one night but wished I stayed longer. good location, excellent included breakfast - the emperor has stayed here so you know it must be good

Rebecca

Attentive staff was accommodating, tries to anticipate what the guest needs/wants. Excellent bath facilities and spacious, well appointed rooms. Meals highlighted locally sourced foods and staff explained and encouraged us to try those with which we were unfamiliar. We were comfortable and felt safe. Excellent location near the center of town.

Great location, beautiful place, cozy Onsen facility, delicious food, top on the notch service, and friendly staffs. We happened to be staying for the fall festival and Mikoshi Hachi-Awase. The hotel is conveniently located for this special tradition. The whole experience was magical.
