Toyoko Inn Nagano-eki Higashi-guchi

10/10 Excellent

"Estancia agradable y acorde a un Hotel que se preocupa, por dar satisfacción al cliente."

Club Wyndham Shirakabaso Shigakogen

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely loved our stay here! The buffet breakfast and dinner included were great and provided a vast range of Japanese, Western and Italian options. The staff went above and beyond to welcome us and our ten month old baby. The rooms were well maintained and spacious for Japan. Gorgeous location, but remember that it is quite a distance away (at least 20 mins by car if not further) from restaurants (for dinner, there are a few lunch options closer)/convenience stores, etc."

Kidoike Onsen Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is a traditional Japanese property and such the rooms and the food served in their restaurants are all keeping with the Japanese culture and traditions. There is an onsen, hot spring pools, on site to soak in. They have a great and friendly staff who were very helpful in many ways. The property is close to world class ski resorts and there are convenient transportation options to get around the area. I would recommend this hotel to those who love the outdoors and would appreciate an immersive Japanese experience."
