Pet Friendly Hotels in Nagano Prefecture, Japan

Very good accommodation, good room, very lovely staff!!! Friendly, kind, can speak English fluently. If I come back to this city again, I will definitely come back here again. The room is very good, hot heater, hot water, there is a bathtub to soak in, delicious breakfast. When we went it was winter, the accommodation will have a pick up service to the station area, but when we went there were few people, so they took us to the tourist area as well. And in the evening, they picked us up and returned to the accommodation, including dropping us off so we could catch a bus to go to another city.

The hot spring is great, and the water quality is very comfortable. 👍👍 The breakfast is delicious, and dinner is good too, but the menu never changes; it's the same every day. If you're staying for a longer ski trip, everything tastes bad after two days. 😓 The location is very convenient if you have your own car. If not, taking a taxi is also easy, though sometimes you have to wait a bit longer. None of the staff speak English. Every time, they just give you a look that says, 'I don't understand, sorry, I can't help you,' which is very frustrating. 🥲🥲 **Hygiene:** I stayed at this hotel for 5 nights. Upon check-in, they said the room would be cleaned once after three days. However, three days passed, and even after reminding them, no one came to clean. No one cleaned the room until we left. I had to clean it myself every day like a housekeeper. 🥹 **Room:** The space is quite large. The overall feel is like a 70s-80s hotel. If you like a nostalgic vibe, it's pretty good. The overall price is reasonable, it's a good place, and I'd come back here to ski next time. 👍👍 But I'll definitely bring an AI translator next time, otherwise, communication will be impossible. 😅😅

The inn is exquisitely decorated, with a classic, elegant style. It's spotless and tidy, and the rooms are filled with Japanese charm; even the lamps and telephones are reusable vintage items, which is quite unique. The men's and women's hot spring baths are alternated for guests' use. There's also a separate open-air bath, which is very comfortable. Breakfast and dinner were delicious, beautifully presented, and the service was attentive. I would love to stay here again if I had the chance to return.

Mostly good experience. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. The French restaurant was delicious. And it was great that there was a ski rental and storage right inside the hotel. Added to that, the convenience of skiing right to the lift is heavenly. The bar/ lounge was chill and cozy. However it either seemed there was a shortage of staff, mostly new staff, or both. The mandatory dinner reservations were very restrictive even though when getting there at the reserved time, the restaurant was half empty. And most frustrating was that there was no options for getting any type of food after 8:30. So if you get hungry after that time or want a snack, you better pre buy one of the 3 options of instant noodles from the lobby store (before it closes also).

Overall a pleasant stay. Started with a few hiccups due to late and incomplete responses through mail. However, Mr Hiroki the supervisor and the staff in general tried their level best to ensure a comfortable stay for us. The hotel is quite comfortable and serves its purpose as a hotel for those seeking to head to ski fields as the shuttle bus stop is outside the hotel.

This guesthouse in Karuizawa comes highly recommended – it's far superior to traditional hotels. We booked the three-bedroom suite this time. First off, the guesthouse's location is excellent and easy to find with navigation. They offer various suites, each with unique decor, and every unit features a courtyard of different sizes and styles. It's perfect for friend gatherings and enjoying a casual drink. Hoshino Onsen and other popular photo spots are just a 10-minute walk away. The coffee served is specially prepared by the owner using Blue Bottle beans, which clearly shows their refined taste and appreciation for the good things in life. The bedding, made from baby cotton, is incredibly luxurious and meticulously chosen. It's breathable, comfortable against the skin, and has a subtle, pleasant scent, guaranteeing you a perfect night's sleep. In fact, when we checked out, we even specifically asked the owner for a link to purchase the bedding – that's how much we loved it! I'll definitely be recommending this place to friends. Oh, and a quick tip: if you plan to dine here, make sure to book in advance, as all ingredients are freshly sourced on the day.

I had dinner at 2800 yen plus local It was a great answer. The view from the room was outstanding. It is about 4 kilometers from Kurohime station, but it is impossible to walk. It was about 2000 yen by taxi

It’s the photos taken by mobile phones inside and outside the store. The small hotel run by the old couple is not far from the Yudanaka tram terminal. In the town of hot springs, it’s good to have a 24-hour hot spring bathhouse. The owner is very good. Gentle was able to personally drive us to the foot of the mountain in the Wild Monkey Park to see the monkeys washing in the hot springs. It is a lot more convenient for us. Shared toilets are the place I am least used to, but overall I am satisfied.

This is a very nice onsen hotel. The dinner and breakfast provided is very good. We stayed for 4 nights, and the dinner are all different. Location is very good as it is walking distance to the train station. They have free shuttle bus to the train station and the snow monkey place as well. All the staff are very friendly. I will come back again for sure

Met with welcoming and good service staff, start of a great 2-night stay. The breakfast, Japanese and Western were appetising. There are 2 routes to the hotel by car, both will have narrow and winding country roads at certain stretch to and from the hotel. Can be intimidating drive in the night especially when the days are short from November onwards.
