I used it with my family (2 adults, 3 elementary school students, and 2 dogs) on a trip to Karuizawa.It was my first time traveling with a dog, so I was a little nervous, but as soon as I arrived, they greeted me and helped me carry my heavy carrier and luggage to my room.Two signboard dogs were also there to welcome us, which was very cute. (It made me want to go home with you)Also, since it was a vacant room, I was given a room upgrade and was given a room with a dog run, but it was well maintained and very nice.He was a very nice person who explained the room in detail, showed me walking courses in the neighborhood, and places where I could take my dog ​​to eat.In the morning, I once again wanted to say "good morning" to the two signboard dogs, and they were so cute that I wanted to come see them next year rather than travel!They even guided me through the pet cart when I was shopping, which made me feel like they were doing their best.it's recommended!

The place was really nice. The atmosphere of the room feels like a cabin and I loved how much nature I could feel within and outside the room. The staffs were really friendly and easy to talk to as well. Overall, both the humans and my dog loved the experience. One little issue we had was in the cleaning. We didn’t find the shower room to be too clean. It wasn’t dirty or anything but the little mould here and a bit of smell was not ideal.But again I loved the place and I would totally recommend going here with your pets!!

I'm glad I chose RER for my stay in Karuizawa. I was able to feel at ease and feel at home. Personally, I like the exterior of buildings like RER, so I saw this exterior on the internet and decided on it right away. It was a wonderful building that blended into the calm surrounding landscape. The interior of the condominium is well-maintained and has a clean feel that you wouldn't expect from a pet-friendly property. I also opted for a plan that included dinner, and I received RER's original gozen meal from the sushi and Japanese restaurant ``Hyotan.'' I was a little surprised that this was a catered lunch box made with only high-quality ingredients.Then, upon arrival, the owner gave us a detailed lecture on the facilities and other details. The owner's own experiences and impressions were included, and he taught us about recommended local spots, walking routes in the neighborhood, and precautions to take when dealing with natural animals, which was very helpful. After all, it's nice to stay in a condominium x pension where you can feel close to the owner and considerate people.

At check-in, the staff will explain the facilities very carefully. However, we hardly see each other during our stay, so I don't have to worry about it too much.The facilities are not new, but they are well renovated and clean.I had a great vacation.The location on Google maps is incorrect, so we are requesting a correction.

We visited as a family of 3 people and 1 small dog.He explained the hotel very thoroughly and even upgraded me since the room was available. I have a young and violent daughter, so they were able to let me stay on the first floor, and they even lent me some toys, which was very helpful. We were warmly welcomed by the owner family, staff, and the signboard dog Monet, and we had a great time in this wonderful facility. thank you very much.
