My family and I really enjoyed our stay at Hotel Kokusai 21. It's a nice and big hotel and the staff were all very kind. The rooms were spacious and clean. They also offer a breakfast buffet for a fee and it's really amazing. It's not easy to find a place to eat in the morning, so having a breakfast buffet in the hotel was really great and convenient. I definitely recommend staying here if you are in Nagano.

For North American travellers, this hotel is much better than its rating on this site. My partner and I were in an executive level suite and I suspect that it was used for VIPs during the 1998 Olympics. Very spacious, comfortable, soaker tub and separate shower. Walking distance to restaurants, 5 minute drive to Nagano station (hotel offers free shuttle), and close to Zenkoji (temple). Beautiful property, excellent staff. Highly recommended.

Two adults two teens stayed in a Quad room (2 singles 2 rollaway beds) in Jan 2025 for 5 nights and separate corner sofa. The hotel is huge with different wings so need to get your bearings. Nagano was our base for day trips to snow monkeys, Matsumoto, and to ski. The hotel is older (winter Olympics HQ) but was generally well maintained. Front desk staff were amazing, they had limited English but used a translator, and so friendly every time we passed and so helpful booking restaurants and forwarding luggage (note cash only and this hotel will only forward to a hotel, not the airport). We had breakfast every day which was compact but tasty (Nagano apple juice and apple jam are delicious). We had Italian in the hotel our first night, it was ok and convenient. The top floor bar had a pretty night view, fixed price for a small but well stocked self serve bar and packaged snacks. The hotel free shuttle to/from the station is convenient, but for early or late trips we just got a taxi for Y1,000. Ten minutes pleasant walk to the shopping street leading to the temple. There are only two washing machines and dryers in the hotel so they got very busy but were really useful (coins required, no coin machine but desk staff happy to change). I was initially unsure about this hotel and staying 5 nights but we really enjoyed it and would happily go back.

Big and clean room

We booked a studio suite room and the room was huge. Big vanity top with big shower area with a TV facing the bath tub so you can watch TV while you soak in the tub. Location is about 15mins walk from the shopping street and train station. Had an unpleasant encounter with a front desk lady staff when we requested for an hour extension to the check out time. I totally understand if it is their hotel's policy that no extension is allowed but it was the way she replied which I feel it's abit hostile. This same staff also doesn't greet hotel guest and we noticed she will avoid eye contact with guests. On the other hand, another lady front desk staff was very helpful when we enquired about a day trip and she ran after us as we were walking away after she realized she gave us the wrong info. The male front desk staff was also very polite and helpful.
