Kitasaku

Zapomněli jsme si uvědomit, že to nebyla anglická prohlídka, ale průvodce (kapr) nám i tak laskavě vyšel vstříc! Všechna místa, která jsme navštívili, byla úžasná. Výlet byl z naší strany celkově obrovský úspěch!

Jelikož je místo daleko od Tokia, většinu času zabrala cesta. Samotná cesta je však velmi klidná a malebná. Průvodce podal jasné instrukce a byl po celou dobu výletu velmi nápomocný. Hlavními body jsou resorty Hoshino a hodinová věž. Do svatyně jsme se nedostali, protože jsme tam dorazili po zavírací době kvůli dopravě. Nicméně, velmi blízko hodinové věže je muzeum, které zdůrazňuje tamní festival. Vstupenka stála pouhých 100 jenů, přesto to za ten zážitek naprosto stálo.

we had a fantastic experience. Our driver Akira, was kind, informative and very helpful throughout the day. We organized and customized our tour and he helped make changes in real time so we could fit everything in during our day. Definitely recommend.

Děkuji, pane Liu, za dnešní prohlídku. Vždy jste nám ochotně poskytoval potřebnou pomoc. Dnes nám počasí nepřálo, takže jsme nemohli navštívit Yunbaishi, ale zpáteční cesta do malého Eda se mi moc líbila 🥰. Doufám, že až přijedu příště, budu se tam moci znovu podívat.

Tour guide Ma was very responsible, looking out for everyone, clearly explaining the attractions, and helping with photos. He also managed the time well. Thanks also to the driver. We were worried it would rain, but luckily there wasn't much rain throughout the trip ☺️. Thank you, The M Travel!

Great hotel with spacious and comfortable rooms. The free shuttle bus to Karuizawa Prince Shopping Plaza was very convenient for shopping. The location is peaceful, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, a pleasant stay and good value.

Hotel was a three minute walk from the station. And a five minute walk to the outlet store. Room was clean and standard by Japan standards. Free coffee and the amenities were great as well

Overall, highly recommended! First, on the day of check-in, the front desk staff were friendly and proactively provided detailed information, helping us get acquainted with the hotel facilities and the surrounding shops (very important! Lawson is only open until 11:00 PM, not 24 hours). Second, the toilet and bathroom in our room type were separate, so we didn't have to worry about a slippery floor after showering when using the toilet, which was very convenient and safe. The bed was very comfortable, allowing us to sleep soundly until morning. However, the refrigerator only had a fridge compartment, no freezer, which is something to note. My booking included complimentary hotel breakfast, which I hadn't initially expected much from. But after the hotel staff's introduction, I was eager to try it. There was a good variety of bread, and the quality was excellent, not just simple toast options. The fresh salads, juice (you could tell it was 100%), fresh milk, and coffee beans from the coffee machine were all great (I would press the espresso button and then add fresh milk from the side to make a latte, and the taste was comparable to lattes from outside coffee shops). Additionally, during our stay, there was a limited-time summer special offer. Besides different daily vegetable and fruit dishes and desserts for breakfast, each room could also pick up to 6 refreshing herbal snacks per day, which was a very generous gesture! All hotel staff were polite and enthusiastic, and the room was comfortable and clean. The only downside was that the room rate was significantly higher overall because it included a Saturday night. A separate accommodation tax of 250 per person per night was also collected upon check-in.

very big and comfortable room! Will consider revisit next time!
