Best Suwa Hotels

"This is the hot spring hotel I stayed at most this year. It's located right on the shore of Lake Suwa, a bit of a walk from the station, but you can find some beautiful scenery within walking distance. The hotel was very clean and the service was excellent. It's a very cost-effective hot spring hotel. The only drawback is that there's only one Chinese restaurant on-site; otherwise, you'd have to walk a bit to find other restaurants."

"I stayed here on a business trip. It is located close to Suwa Interchange on the Chuo Expressway. The room was clean and spacious. There is also a loft-style bed. The windows in the guest rooms can be opened slightly for ventilation."

"This was the hotel I enjoyed most during my trip to Japan (the other two were also very good). It's a newly renovated hot spring hotel right on the shores of Lake Suwa. Facilities: The hotel offers a one-night stay with two meals, with breakfast and dinner included in the room rate. There's an indoor onsen on the 6th floor and another terrace onsen with a lake view. They have red and white baths, hence the name ”Red and White.” The restaurant is on the 2nd floor, where we serve breakfast and dinner. The first floor is also spacious and clean, with a welcome glass of sparkling water. Cleanliness: Every room was spotless, especially the onsen area. Ambience: Because it's located on the lake, most rooms offer a lake view. Our room was the smallest in the hotel, but it was spacious enough for two people (it could sleep up to four). The lake view is a bit off-center, but you can still see a bit. Just across the street from the hotel is the lake, and hotel guests can take a free boat ride. The boats are rarely crowded, and the scenery is truly beautiful. In August, in addition to the famous Lake Suwa Fireworks Festival, there's also a 10-minute fireworks display every evening, visible from the lakeside. Service: The service was excellent. Mr. Lee (or Li), a Chinese-speaking staff member in the restaurant on the second floor, was truly wonderful. His detailed explanation of the dinner provided a deeper understanding of the ingredients and cooking methods for each dish. After dinner, we headed up the mountain to watch the sunset (the setting for Lake Itomori in ”Your Name”), and since it wasn't easy to get a taxi down, the hotel provided flashlights for us. They also helped us get a taxi the next morning. Overall, this is a hot spring hotel with excellent service. Highly recommended!"

"I stayed for two nights, but it was a rainy day so I spent the whole time inside the room. I stayed in a modern Japanese-style twin room. The room was pretty clean. The view from the window was great. However, the soundproofing was poor and I couldn't sleep very well."

"It is purely unexpected to be able to book this old-fashioned Japanese-style hotel on Trip.com. Visiting the city in April is the off-season for tourism, and the price is very cost-effective. There are relatively few small public transportation in the city. After arriving at JR Shangyu Visit Station at night, I walked for 20 minutes to the hotel. The sign at the door ”small hot spring hotel by the lake” is so handsome. The hotel is run by a 50- or 60-year-old couple and the reception is very thoughtful. The room was unexpectedly clean and tidy, with mottled marks on the furniture and the overall style of the hotel, and I thought there would be no smell of tatami mats in the humid environment by the lake. There is a preparation manual in the room. Although there is no Chinese, the content is relatively simple and can be understood. The first floor is a restaurant, and the next door is a small hot spring. The hot spring water quality is clear and the temperature is suitable. The convenience store 5 minutes walk from the hotel is unexpectedly closed at 17:00 pm, and the 24-hour convenience store needs to walk for about 15 minutes. Breakfast is not operated in nearby restaurants, so it is best to experience a classic Japanese breakfast at the hotel for breakfast. Dinner is also available here. The lake view room is facing the lake, bringing a refreshing panoramic view of the lake, while the experience of visiting the lake, the car noise on the lakeside road at night will bring some unpleasantness. Consider it when choosing a room type. Surroundings: There are several restaurants next door to the hotel for lunch. About 10 minutes walk, there is a comprehensive hotel called katakurakan that can rent electric bicycles. It is a good choice to ride around the lake and the city."

"距離上諏訪車站步行需15分鐘，相比車站周邊的酒店。步行較遠，而且公共交通幾乎可以説是沒有，但是勝在價格便宜，雖然是情趣酒店，但是。並不會有什麼不適，房間設施各方面可以完勝車站周邊的酒店"

"The room I booked was a regular tatami room, but the lake view was great. The hotel service was really considerate and thoughtful. I arrived early and was told during check-in that there was a free bus tour of the four major shrines of Suwa, including a driver's explanation throughout the trip. Due to my poor Japanese, I only understood the general idea and didn't understand any of the details. The four shrines of Suwa Taisha were originally quite scattered, but now it's easy to take them all. The breakfast was made with local specialties and was very healthy."

"土日一泊でした。ロビーでは無料のコーヒーサービスあり、アメニティは部屋にあり、タオルとともに大浴場に持込が必要です。ロビーには連泊者用の追加のアメニティが置いてありました。駐車場が広く部屋は清潔で、女性用の大浴場はやや小さいですが、他の宿泊客と会わなかったので全く問題ありませんでした。男性用は女性用よりだいぶ広いようです。朝食バイキングは、沢山種類があるわけではありませんが色々そろっていて美味しかったです。自分がいった時はフルーツがなく、あったら嬉しかったところです。全体的に困ることなく、大変満足しました。お世話になり、ありがとうございました。"

"The room is fully equipped and clean; you can take a bath after exploring the surrounding area."

"Location is great, it is just on the main road and by the lake. I remember there was a Lawon convenient store not far away when we drove past. We stayed there for 1 night. I highly doubt if we were given the wrong room type, as I booked a room that can see the full Suwa Lake, but the room we have got is at the corner. It is because of the cherry blossom season, there are so many mosquitos outside so we couldn't open any window. According to the information provided by the hotel, the mosquitos don't bite human, but create stains on clothings. Anyway, the room has a private onsen. It was quite small, and look a bit old. The water is very hot, though I couldn't smell any sulfur so it is not a real hot spring. As the windows can't be opened, so it is a quite stuffy inside the bathroom. The room has equipped with all amenities, but no bottled water. The hotel mentioned the water is drinkable from the tab. The room is quite clean and spacious. The mattress is quite nice, it was good for taking a rest after a whole day trip. We chose the meal package (breakfast and dinner). They were both Japanese style with a lot of dishes and options. Food is great. Nagano is not a place that produces meat, so mainly there are a lot of vegetables. With the price we paid for, the hotel services, food and everything is quite reasonable. However, the hotel is a bit old. Nothing is special other than providing a clean room to sleep."
