Best hotels & accommodations in Karuizawa

There was shuttle bus around every 20mins from Karuizawa Station going to different parts of the hotel until 9PM so going to and from the station was not a problem. Checkin and checkout was also surprisingly very fast. I reserved one of the west cottages for an overnight stay for 3 people. When we arrived in the Hotel, the receptionist told us that if we do not smoke, ...

We made many trips to Karuizawa and each time we would stay a few days at the Prince (west, east, etc). We prefer the east for the winter lodge experience and the main for the used of onsen. Our experience of the west was not good at all, we felt very unwelcome there, which was not a common experience in Japan. We like the location of this "hotel", close to the stat...

I have always stayed in other hotels in Japan during my previous visits, but decided to try APA hotel this time during our skii trip in Karuizawa. I am a frequent traveler and love to explore hotels to evaluate the level of service. My room preference was given and the room is bigger than what we have expected as compared to other hotels in Japan which is quite small...

We were foreigners and rented a car driving from Haneda to Karuizawa. A couple with one young child. The driving was about 4 hours, including the time spent in R&R. Many R&Rs with clean restrooms and nice food court along the journey. The Prince Karuizawa is a big complex with The Prince Karuizawa Hotel, Hotel East, Hotel West, Shopping Plaza, Golf course, skiing res...

I booked this hotel during my April trip to Karuizawa. Hotel is very conveniently located near a nice supermarket and not too far from the station. Shuttle bus to and from the station is running all day. If you have a car, there’re plenty of parking spaces. Beside nice apartment style room with kitchen, what I like are the friendliness of all staffs and huge public...

We came to Karuizawa to relax for 2 nights. We were driving so getting to the hotel wasn’t an issue, but for travelers not driving, this may be too far from major stations. The kids loved the in room onsen tub. The room looked a lot bigger in the pictures, but fitting a family of 4 with 2 kids should be no problem. The kids enjoyed sleeping on futons.

we have a great experience staying in ryokan ikoisanso. my husband and me like it so much, as the location good, as we rent a car to hanging around. the surrounding of hotel is beautiful especially in the early spring morning, we and our baby can walk outside to enjoy the scenery. staff very nice, our baby very happy with tatami bed and like to crawling here and there,...

The place is a little bit far from Karuizawa station but we enjoyed the walk along Karuizawa Hon-Dori. At night, the surrounding area is also dark. We made use of our phone flashlights to find our way to the lodge. Staffs were very friendly and accommodating. They even gave us a ride going back to Karuizawa Station after we checked out. We slept well. However we didn...

The Hotel is conveniently located just a 5-minute walk away from the JR Shinkansen Karuizawa Station. There are residential buildings around, ensuring a quiet environment and some quality sleep. There are also 2 convenient stores within walking distance. The Hotel houses fewer than 10 guestrooms. They are all spacious, clean and tidy. Bathroom facilities and amen...

This golf-focused hotel with one of the most amazing views you will get anywhere in this world. You'll see Mount Asama with its heart shape natural carving towards the top of the mountain. All rooms face this side with mountain view, overlooking a gorgeous golf course and several km of woodland. Autumn with the red leaves is amazing! The room itself is roomy for Japa...

We booked a twin room (east wing). We thought it was at the Hotel West coz we don’t know its exact location. Since if you want to book Hotel East, there is another page on Agoda actually. But finally it turned out that our room is inside Hotel East! The location is super convenient! It was exactly beside the ski place. If you feel tired, just return to your room and ...

Worth for the 12 minutes walk from the station. Quiet, beautiful surrounding, a world away from the crowded Karuizawa town centre. Close to nature and various hiking trails. The man who runs the hostel is attentive and helpful, super polite, speaks good English. Definitely one of the best hostel I've ever stayed.

I had a wonderful stay in Dormy Club Karuizawa. The hotel is located in Naka-karuizawa, close to the famous Hoshino onsen and stone church. They also offer shuttle bus to Naka-karuizawa train station. The staff are extremely hospitable and friendly. Will like to go back again.

A bit far from Karuizawa station (about 30mins by foot, but quite a nice walk), perfectly situated in the woods, with nice traditional rooms & a great communal bath, although everything is a bit narrow and dinner/breakfast can only be ordered in advance when booking. But definitely a good spot to unwind in the green and explore some of Japan‘s most scenic landscapes, a...

The hotel staffs are helpful and cheerful. However, the hotel is mainly for locals because the staff does not really speak English. Remote location. The restaurant does not have a la carte, so you must book your dinner there or you have to take a taxi and look for restaurants outside.

The hotel is big, with spacious room and bathroom that is separated between shower/toilet and dry dressing areas. The road in front of the hotel is quiet, nice environment. Staffs were attentive, excellent manner. The minus point is that there are many stairs to lobby from entrance, and another stair to the room, which is troublesome if you bring heavy/big luggage, or ...

The hotel is cozy and comfortable. The room and lounge are roomy and well-decorated. Staff are well-trained with good English and providing warm and professional services. The breakfast was great and the pantry inside the room was excellent. I will stay at Kyu Karuizawa Hotel if I visit here again.

Ok, if you are traveler with easy luggage won't be a problem. If you are in Karuizawa for shopping and going around then you gotta rethink. Hotel is not exactly near the station and hotel doesn't provide any transportation to the nearest station. Train is not very frequent either. Train fare to the next station cost 230~240 yen each trip, so it adds up and it doesn't t...

The stay was exceptional - the cottage has everything you need from a microwave to heater and space for luggage and a sofa to chill at. The area was a little far from the main city centre - Karuizawa, but it was fine because we wanted a less crowded place to stay over. Naka-Karuizawa is a quiet neighbourhood but its proximity to the Stone Church and Harunire Terrace wa...

Highly recommend anyone who is travelling to Karuizawa to stay at this place for at least one night!!! FIVE STARS!!! The hotel/ Airbnb is situated close to the middle part of Karuizawa, which is also close to the Hoshino Resort area. The owner is very kind as he would arrange for pick up from the Karuizawa station, and take us to various places at our request.... wi...

Room is really large specially for Japan standards. 2 large beds. No closets / cabinets as in a lot of hotels in Japan, just hangers. Staff are very friendly. Coin laundry is available inside the hotel. Fire place at lobby lounge. Location is less than a kilometer away from Karuizawa train station, Outlet Mall, Prince Ski Resort and Snow Park. Breakfast though is limi...

obasha staff is really nice and gives you a sense of real japanese service manner. You have to travel a few stop by train away from Karuizawa station but the peacefulness you get is so much better than the main station. traditional jpn meal(dinner and breakfast included ) let you get cozy and full for your day. A shared hot onsen allows you a taste of real jpb bath. t...

Good location, cosy, warmth and clean guesthouse! Akiko and her husband maintain it so well. I enjoyed the stay here. Akiko is helpful and attentive. Both of them is so entertaining, each morning will play a beautiful music for the guest during the breakfast . Akiko is a good cook, breakfast is simple but taste is wonderful. Highly recommend this place as the loca...
