Find 3-Star Hotels in Kiso Town

Decided to stay here as part of my Nakasendo hike. Nice, clean hotel. The dinner was amazing, and breakfast buffet is free for all guests. No private showers, but that's okay in Japan. It's quite a walk from the station however, about 10-15mins.

This hotel is located deep in the mountains. Its name is ”Forest Hotel”. It is three kilometers away from the bottom of the mountain. There are few restaurants nearby, and almost none are open at night. The hotel's own restaurant only offers sukiyaki set meals for reservations, and meals cannot be served without reservations. Later, I found a Chinese restaurant ”Kitaro” eight kilometers away from the hotel. The diligent owner was open almost every day and served food until ten o'clock in the evening. I really need this dining advice when staying at this hotel. The nearby attractions of this hotel are very good. In addition to the historical streets, I recommend the ”Sleeping Bed” and ”Asa Valley”. In terms of natural beauty, it is irreplaceable, but it is a bit primitive. I highly recommend it. Wear sneakers to climb. The hotel itself has a large bath, but it is actually just a large bath and does not have sauna-style equipment. It's not a new hotel, but it's well maintained. All the equipment doesn't look shabby. The rooms are big and it's quite comfortable to stay.

The traditional ryokan was very charming and perfectly alluring. The decor of traditional artifacts of the Edo period gave a pleasant insights to a former opulence. The inside and outside onsens were clean with a clear zen and ambiance. How I love the traditional kimono-styled house clothes offering a comfortable restorative relaxing dress code.

Very polite old lady's family hotel. But the price/performance ratio is really not high. The hot spring water is authentic because there is a paper certificate, but I don’t know why it smells like disinfectant water. I guess it is because of the epidemic? Breakfast and dinner can only be said to be basically full, so don't expect anything extra. The room (Room 135) is very big and has two toilets. When I made the reservation, it was 2,400 RMB in the morning and evening in Liangdalian. When I checked in, I brought an extra child and charged 4,400 yen plus a Futon, which was very reasonable. When we were leaving the store, the old lady came to the door and bowed until we disappeared from sight. She was really very hospitable. If I had to choose again, I would still stay here, but I would not include dinner (there is an izakaya in the alley next to the hotel).
