Find 3-Star Hotels in Nagano City

The hotel is located about 10-15mins walk from Nagano station and is easily navigated using google map. Hotel provide luggage forwarding service and luggage deposit after checkout. Amenities are not provided in the room but upon check in, hotel staff will inform you to pick what you need from the area at the hotel lobby. It can also be picked up at anytime of the day. The lobby also have a coffee machine serving hot chocolate and coffee throughout the day. Pastry are provided at certain hour as well. One time free Sake tasting per guest where you need to pick up special coin from the hotel staff. Rooms are clean and quite spacious.

It's super convenient for Togakushi Shrine, not far from the station, but you need to book train tickets in advance. The train to Tokyo also departs from platform 7, and you'll need to buy tickets and select your seats beforehand for that too. Toyoko Inn, as always, offers great value for money. I could easily stay for a month; it's definitely the top choice for budget travelers.

Extremely convenient location! It's super close to Nagano Station, the Nagano Electric Railway (city subway), city buses, and the bus stop for Togakushi Shrine. The room was clean, and while the breakfast selection wasn't huge, it was sufficient and included burgers. Self-service coffee, tea, and toiletries were all well-stocked. Definitely worth a stay!

Considering the price, I can only give it full marks. A bathtub is a must-have for me, so getting two nights for just over 400 yen (which is incredibly cheap) was a great deal. The tub is small, fitting a maximum of three people, but during off-peak hours, you can have it all to yourself. It's very close to Nagano Station, right across from the exit. You can walk to Zenko-ji Temple. Taking the JR train to Ueda to see things related to Sanada Yukimura is also very convenient. The only downside was seeing a notice that a lost room key would cost 9,000 yen – that's almost as much as the two-night stay itself...!

This place is ~5mins walk from Zenkoji temple. neighborhood is peaceful at night. Shoes to be removed outside the accommodation. Rooms are on the 2nd floor so you'll have to carry your luggage up (there's no lift). Room (with window) is huge. You'll have to head downstairs to use the shared toilet and shared onsen (no toilet inside the room). We were only allowed 30mins of onsen time for 2 pax - couples weren't allowed to use the onsen concurrently so we had to go one after another (i'm not sure if the instructions got lost in translation..). Felt very rushed so i didnt really get to enjoy the onsen experience, but overall was nice and clean. Interesting 6.30am tour around the area and within the temple itself, followed by a simple vegetarian breakfast (porridge with omakase-styled sides with miso soup) back at the accommodation. The morning tour lasted from 6.30am - 8.30am. The accommodation provided a fleece blanket to each pax to bring to Zenkoji temple to keep us warm during the morning praying ceremony. We went on 30 Dec and it was SO COLD. Overall interesting experience but accommodation price is pretty steep IMO.

We stayed here as a family of three and had a lovely experience. The place was clean, comfortable, and in a great location, just an 8-minute walk from the famous Zenkoji Temple. Although it is slightly far from Nagano Station, there is a bus stop right in front of the property, making it easy to get to and from the station. There is also an elevator, which was very convenient for bringing our luggage up. The host was very friendly and responsive, and even prepared some local Nagano apple juice for us to try, which was a lovely touch! There is a soba restaurant right below the property, and we noticed quite a long queue, so it is likely worth trying. Being next to Zenkoji Omotesando also means there are plenty of food options nearby, although some shops close quite early. The property has basic amenities such as a microwave and hair dryer. However, the kitchenware is quite limited, there are no cooking facilities, and there is no washing machine. Overall, we had a great stay. Considering the reasonable price, strategic location, cleanliness, and excellent host, I would definitely recommend this place!

Here’s a polished review you can post for Nagano Plaza Hotel: --- I would like to express my sincere appreciation to the team at Nagano Plaza Hotel, especially Ms. Omi Hikaru. Despite my late check-in at around 10+ PM, she went the extra mile to warmly greet me and ensure that my room arrangement was smooth and comfortable. What truly touched me was her thoughtful initiative after learning that I had to leave early for a day tour and needed to be at Nagano Station by 0640 hrs. She kindly prepared and packed breakfast for me in advance so that I would not miss my meal before the trip. Such genuine hospitality, attentiveness, and dedication deserve to be highly recognised and commended. Small actions like these create unforgettable experiences for guests. Thank you once again to Ms. Omi Hikaru and the team for the outstanding service and kindness during my stay. ---

Location is a bit far from the JR station. Good that there are plenty of option for convenience store. Most of all, the staff's are very friendly. We also love the coffee!

Excellent location, right next to the JR station, with a convenience store downstairs and plenty of izakayas nearby. Although the hotel is old, the staff service was absolutely fantastic! On the 10th floor, there are complimentary massage chairs, local sake, soft drinks, and noodle soup served with local specialty seven-spice powder. Even though the items are complimentary, the staff were incredibly friendly, and I could really feel the hotel's attention to detail. A truly wonderful experience! I'd definitely stay here again if I ever come to Nagano!
