My husband and I used the 2 nights and 3 days plan that included breakfast.I was busy sightseeing around Karuizawa during the day, so I didn't fully enjoy the hotel's rooms and facilities, but the room was reasonably spacious and comfortable.However, I can't help but feel that the whole thing is outdated in places.My impression was that it was not a hotel that offered excessive services, but rather a casual hotel that could be used according to one's style.The location itself is quite far from Karuizawa Station, and although it is not a long walk from the station, it is off the main street of Karuizawa, so be careful.It was quiet, and I could hear wild birds chirping and see squirrels running along the power lines from the balcony.

This is my third time staying at this hotel. I have been impress each time I visited. It is not the newest hotel but facilities are well equiped. Bike rental and onsen are available and staff are very friendly and helpful in directing you to whatever you need. The location is a short 10min walk from the station and there is a huge supermarket just 4 minutes walking distance. The room is on the larger end for Japanese hotels. The breakfast buffet was delicious and had a nice variety.The only downside I would say is the price. But price are expensive everywhere in Karuizawa so this is worth spending consider the value we got in return. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking to have a good holiday in this beautiful area of Japan.
