OYO Rooms, Yamanouchi hotels

"The hotel was pretty good, but not the best I've stayed at in Japan. The breakfast was pretty good, but not as amazing as everyone made it sound in the reviews. There was free sake tasting everyday at 5pm. It was 10 minute walk from the train station (not as close as Expedia made it sound, but not a bad walk either). I would stay here again, but just will go in with different expectations than what I had based on the reviews. Overall the staff was very nice and accommodating."

"It is close to the Nagano station and 7-Eleven. It also has a nice shared hot bath pool and coin laundry to wash and drying shoes clothes."

"Loved this hotel. We had a suite with a private onsen which was perfect and we also used the communal and roof top onsens which were lovely. Breakfast was fantastic. Would definately return."

"The JAL hotel is wonderfully located in Nagano city, only a few blocks walk to the train station. A full and large Breakfast is available everyday on the top floor for amazing views of the surrounding mountains. Rooms are quite spacious. There are many restaurants in the nearby area to choose from every night. Nagano is a wonderful city to visit in Japan as it’s much less crowded than places like Tokyo or Osaka. The direct bus to the snow monkeys from the station was a tremendous experience, as you get to see the snow monkeys in their own environment."

"Perfect spot. Large room. Sort of patio area. Friendly staff. This is shared bathroom. I would.come back with my family again."

"The owner was so kind and made my stay"

"Hotel housei was my favorite stay in Japan, even after spending triple as much money for some other hotels. The staff is simply amazing, they went above and beyond for accommodation. Kei at the front desk was very helpful in showing me around the hotel & also recommended a restaurant that was one of my favorite I’ve been to. The gentlemen at the front desk even set up a specific shuttle for me to the snow monkey park because I was going to leave before their set time. They took me alone to the park in the morning, and even offered to pick me up and shuttle me back after I had checked out to the train station! Seriously an amazing establishment, I could not recommend them more. "

"Great stay loved it"
