Stayed here for 2 nights. This is a hotel where you can stay quietly, living up to its tagline of being a hideaway for adults. The room is clean and the sink and bath are wonderful. I opened the window and enjoyed my morning bath. I was looking forward to L'Occitane and Refa as rumored. The lovely staff with smiling faces made me feel at ease. There was also a coffee service and a floor that could be used until midnight. The food was also delicious. Next time I would like to stay for 3 nights.

I had a most delightful experience there.The hotel is a small walk off the main avenue heading to the Karuizawa station. Surrounded by trees, on a sunny day you'll get a nice breeze with the scent of the trees, and on a rainy day the raindrops will create music for your ears.The hotel has quite a few parking spaces, and also has a nice restaurant and the overall atmosphere was amazing.A combination of a retro interior, but a slight glamping type outside.The check-in was smooth but they don't have an elevator so you'll need to make it up a few stairs.The rooms are beautiful with great amenities (they even had L'Occitan shampoo, conditioner and body wash). You also get bottles of water, nice local coffee, rental umbrellas, safe, and more.They also have a daiyokujo which is large bath that you can reserve for a specific time slot.The room didn't have a swing bar bolt lock so for anyone concerned about security should bring a portable door lock.Check out depends on the site you book through, but I had a late checkout which was till noon.The check-out itself was even smoother than check-in since they have a self checkout system where you just scan your key and return it.I'll definitely be going there again!

I searched for barrier-free on a certain website and selected it, but there were stairs everywhere, there was no elevator inside the facility, and I couldn't get to the restaurant except for steep stairs with no handrails. However, the food was very delicious, using an abundance of fresh vegetables and bringing out the flavors of the ingredients. Since I couldn't go to the restaurant, my meal was served in the lounge area at the front desk.The guest room was on the second floor, but there was a handrail on the stairs so I was able to reach it. Part of the stairs was peeling off and was being repaired with duct tape, which made me feel a little uneasy. The room was very spacious, but I was surprised at how cold the air conditioner was. The bed was spacious and comfortable, but there was only a comforter that looked like a winter duvet, and I started to feel sleep deprived because I would wake up hot when I put the futon on, and wake up cold when I took the futon off. .The woman at the front desk checked in and out by herself, stocked the small shop, took care of the bill, and even served my food, and I was relieved by her apologetic and smiling response. thank you.

This hotel is very beautiful. It is a British-style hotel in the middle of dense woods, close to Suwa Shrine. It is not big, with only 3 floors and 13 rooms.Checking is in a room next to the guest room, and 4 cars can be parked in front of the door.There is a hot spring bath on the first floor of the guest room, but remember to make a reservation on the first floor of the guest room in advance. You can soak in the hot spring for about 45 minutes at a time. There's nothing wrong with being clean.Not suitable for children, and there is no elevator.After all, it is a three-story wooden building and has certain limitations.The scenery outside the hotel is quiet, and the room is really not small. It has a small entrance, and the bathroom, sink, and toilet are separated independently. It feels like home. The key is a normal key.From the main street: Karuizawa Hondori, about 10 minutes.It is recommended for couples and couples.

I stayed for one night on a weekday, including dinner and breakfast.To be honest, my overall impression was that the meticulous care and attention from the staff were more impressive than anything else. Among all the accommodations I've visited in Japan, this place stood out the most for its thoughtful hospitality.The dinner course, inspired by vegetables, was a visual delight. It was well-designed for vegetarians, offering many dishes that are also suitable for those who prefer plant-based meals. I ordered a meat dish, and the taste was in line with what you would expect from a course meal.The amenities were well-equipped, and the open-air bath, though compact, was sufficient for enjoying the atmosphere. Above all, the service from the staff was exceptional.Peaceful daily food, summer food, and summer food.To tell the truth, listen to the story, listen to the news, listen to the news, listen to the story, read the story, read the story, read the story, read the story, read the story, read the story.たた日本おもてなしを感じる場所でした。を ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー ー 楽 楽 楽 楽 楽。。。。 楽 楽 楽 ン ン ン の の の メ の ー ー ー ー ー 実私 を 文 文 文 文 文 文が、Taste is good and it is good to know.アメニティもㅅ実しており、露天風呂もコンパクトなサイズですが、雰囲気を楽しむには10 minutes.

Of all the accommodations I've been to in Japan so far, this was the most considerate one.Dinner was a delicious course meal with vegetables as a motif. Since the menu was well-organized for vegetarians, I felt that there were many dishes that were good for vegetarians as well. I ordered a meat dish. The taste was similar to that of a course meal.The amenities were plentiful, and although the open-air hot spring was compact in size, it was enough to enjoy the atmosphere. Above all, the service from the staff is the best.

It was a nice hotel in the forest.It was in a quiet location and the sound of the rain was soothing. The room was also very clean.If I had to pick a drawback, it would be that there is no elevator.There was a stink bug in the room, but I think that's a charm in Karuizawa. Of course it's better not to be there lol

Although it is a quiet place, you can feel the nature of Karuizawa.Unlike a normal hotel, the front desk and bar are in the same place, so if you're interested, you might be interested...The rooms are spacious and the furniture is carefully selected.
