QUIET & DESOLATE

Hotel was a little too far to walk from the JR Station. On a weekday evening, there were no food outlet or restaurant nearby. The only one was a bar with a solitary ukulele musician who strummed some Hawaiian melodies as he tried his best to sing in English. The operator was a one-man show who took an hour to serve my wife and I our order for a plate of beef rice and a plate of chicken rice. When it was time to pay, he then asked for a "music charge" of 500 yen per dinner!!!

Small nice hotel

Small hotel with friendly & helpful staff; walking distance to Prince Outlet & old Karuizawa street; breakfast not too many varieties but nice & sufficient. Shortage is - no elevator, not too convenient for carrying heavy baggages.

Just fair for the price.

You must be strong to take your luggage to the 2nd floor, and you could not expect your room be cleaned up everyday.

Newly furnished, clean room. Large toilet.

The service was a bit inconsistent. Initially they said that I couldn't check in, 5 mins after helping me to carry my luggage up to the 2nd storey lobby and storing it, they discovered that my room was ready. Which I was very relieved about. But the room was extremely chilly. It was winter. Took the whole day for the electric heater to warm up the whole room. Used the public bath only once because you need to walk to the first level and in an outdoor area to reach the onsen. Seriously? Cold in winter. The bed was huge and pretty comfy. Nobody helped me with my luggage during check out :( But otherwise it was a nice peaceful room. Enjoyed the cleanliness and pretty luxurious feel it has. Nice iphone speakers. It's in between the station and kyu karuizawa and it's pretty walkable. 1km in each direction. I didn't use public transport. Too icy to cycle so didn't see if they have bikes.

Great deal!

This hotel offered complimentary breakfast , which was *really* amazing. Do not miss it!. The room was excellent for the price, as no strong odor even though it was a smoking room. I definetly recommend the hotel.

禁煙の部屋で良かった

最初に特に気になったのはロビーのタバコ臭さでした。カラオケのロビーのような臭いがしました。 幸い丁寧にご対応いただいたスタッフの方に喫煙のお部屋から禁煙のお部屋に変更いただけたので、滞在自体は問題ありませんでしたが、お部屋もロビーのように匂うのであれば厳しかったかもしれません。 設備もサイズもミニマムですが、駅周りを動くのであれば便利な場所です。 トイレと浴室が別でしたし、水回りも綺麗でした。 お風呂はかなり小さいですがお部屋のお風呂よりも広々入れました。

ホテル自体は快適でしたが、普通に借りると24時間300円の駐車場に止めさせられて、900円取られた。ホテルを通した為、割高な料金を払った。近辺の駐車場は全部300円。僅かな額だが気分が悪い。

十分快適な軽井沢ステイ

週末に2泊しました。周辺のホテルと比較して格安だったため、あまり期待していませんでしたが、十分快適に過ごせました。お風呂が洗い場のあるタイプで使いやすかったため、屋外の温泉に行くのが面倒な時にはこちらを利用しました。 朝ごはんは卵料理を1日目と2日目で変えて用意していただけて、細かい気くばりがありがたかったです。 周囲にコンビニはなく、ショッピングモールのある駅南側に比べるとずっと人通りも少ないですが、庶民的なラーメン屋さん等もあり、特に不便は感じませんでした。

位於車站與舊輕井澤銀座中途,走路10-15分鐘可達,還算便利。 額外繳交溫泉稅可泡溫泉,LOBBY有免費咖啡供應。 唯一缺點是沒有電梯但LOBBY與房間都在二樓,得自己將行李搬上樓。
