5/5
Is the 4.8 rating on Google Maps, which has a reputation for giving out rather harsh reviews, for real? That's what I thought, but after staying there, I understood. This inn is the best.The interior and guest rooms have been thoroughly and tastefully renovated and are of outstanding quality. The food was also very delicious, especially the quiche that everyone praised, which was amazing. Enjoy all-you-can-drink time from 9pm and have fun chatting with the owner and his wife. This alone is amazing, but with breakfast and dinner included, it's an overwhelming cost performance of less than 15,000 yen for a Saturday night stay! !It's really the best. I can confidently recommend it to everyone. Please stay here when you come to Kita Karuizawa.

The owner and his wife were kind and nice people, but I was disappointed that the ingredients in the quiche that I had hoped for smelled like frozen and tasted really bad. My partner was also disappointed, and I think staying overnight without meals would have been better. The inn has the image of being a boarding house in the home of the owner and his wife, so the cooking probably depends on the skill of the landlady, but if you're going to serve food of this level, there are delicious bakeries and quiches in Karuizawa, so it's best to have delicious food nearby. Isn't it enough to just obtain it and serve it deliciously? He may have been good in the past, but as people grow older, their sense of taste dulls and they stop working hard on their menus and skills, so be careful. I wish they would have made the quiche with fresh highland vegetables and fresh ingredients instead of making a quiche with frozen shrimp and shellfish. The selling point of this pension is the quiche. It may be difficult to manage, but an inn that uses a lot of frozen food doesn't suit our tastes. There aren't many guests, so if you don't get lazy and hone your cooking skills, it will be a good place to stay. Although I wrote a harsh review, I felt that the cuisine needed to be renewed for the survival of the pension.

My family and I have been going there once or twice a year for over 20 years. The inside of the pension is stylishly designed and very comfortable. The owner and his wife are very kind, and the food they make is very delicious. The water in the bath is hot and comfortable, and if you go in winter, the first bath is the best! My whole family likes it. This is a pension in Kita Karuizawa that is good no matter what season you visit, summer or winter ^_^

I visited you about 3 or 4 years ago.I was impressed by the owner couple's sense of interior design and warm hospitality.I stayed for several nights, and they made sure that I didn't get bored of the meal by saying, ``I tried changing the contents a little.'' They included meat dishes, fish dishes, and appetizers! Anyway, the meal was wonderful.I imitate the way I cut the vegetables in consommé soup at home.I confidently recommend her to friends and business associates.
