Independent Takanomachi hotels

"Stayed a night. 10 min walk to Karuizawa station. Nice and cosy. Small 3 storey hotel/inn. Simple but good breakfast included. "

"The room is clean and staffs are friendly and helpful, but the room should have proper light fixtures in the corner of room, and small tables for extra luggages, otherwise this is very good value to stay while in Karuizawa."

"Beautiful private bath and spacious room. Staff can speak English. "

"good if you are looking for a budget friendly place to stay!"

"Grounds and the buildings in general are very beautiful. The furniture is off-putting. Might be trying to create a “Meiji-era” feeling but it’s comes off strange. The use of all the dark colors is not cheery. A more modern touch would improve the experience. Staff were great. Expedia should improve communication about this property though, as we did not make any dinner reservations in advance, it was a bit of an issue. Lucky for us, it wasn’t so busy. We liked both onsen spas and had the most...

"A lovely hotel and a really good stay. "

"Very nice, but you will need a car or taxi to get around."

"This hotel caters to people with dogs. They do not have enough breakfast for all guests."
