The biggest appeal is its undeniably excellent location, just a 2-minute walk from Karuizawa Station. Unlike the historic hotels in Old Karuizawa or the Prince Hotel with its vast grounds, this hotel caters specifically to those who want a clean and affordable place to sleep after an active day outdoors. It cost 6900 yen per night.
✅ What I liked! Recommended points:
1. Incredibly close to the station
The biggest advantage is being able to check in immediately, even with heavy luggage, after exiting the Hokuriku Shinkansen ticket gate.
The outlet mall is on the opposite side of the station, and T-SITE has also opened in front of the station, making it even more convenient.
2. Reliable "APA Quality"
For better or worse, the facilities are the same as any other APA hotel nationwide.
It said that Karuizawa is the only location where face masks are offered as a free amenity!
For breakfast, a friendly lady, like a cafeteria lady, greeted us warmly.
There was Shinshu soba, and the homemade-style dishes were delicious. If I had to nitpick, it would have been nice to have some fruit.
The dessert was daifuku (rice cake filled with sweet bean paste).
