On the left side after u exit the ticket gates in Nagano Station, u can see the hotel immediately upon exiting because it is just across the street. Check in was fast, the staff were friendly & the amenities are available in the lobby. The room size is not too big but I liked the complimentary soap and shampoo, they felt great on the skin & hair. What makes this place unique is the contrast between the two sides of the station. The East Exit side where the hotel is located is much quieter at night, many houses dimming their lights early. On the other hand, the Zenkoji Exit side (the right side of the gate) is very lively and glamorous. The city feels like it has two completely different faces! I am very pleased with the easy access to the train station and the bus terminal. From here, you can easily take a bus to the Alpine Route, Hakuba, Kamikochi, or Jigokudani Monkey Park. Zenkoji Temple is also close by, about a 15-minute walk. The nearest coin laundry is a little over 1 km away.

We stayed here with plans to visit Togakushi Shrine. While it's a short drive to Togakushi Shrine, the hotel's location in Nagano City made it easily accessible and very convenient for sightseeing.
The hotel's parking lot was full, so we used a nearby affiliated parking lot. It was closer than we expected and didn't feel like an inconvenience at all.
The staff at check-in were courteous, and the room was well-equipped with amenities like toner and lotion sets, as well as coffee and tea. The room was clean and comfortable. Two complimentary bottles of water were provided, but since the coffee was made using bottled water, one bottle was used for that, leaving us feeling a bit short on drinking water.
However, the hotel also has vending machines for drinks and a coin laundry on the first floor, which seems convenient for longer stays.
Zenko-ji Temple felt a bit far to walk to, so we drove, but it was very close by car and convenient for sightseeing.
Despite the affordable price, the room was spacious, allowing us to relax comfortably. We are very satisfied with our stay.

Excellent hotel for a stay in Nagano. It's close to the station and offers many free services, including ramen in the evening, laundry, and of course, an onsen.

This one is quite close to the JR station and bus terminal. Room is a bit small so mind the luggage.

The location is excellent, with direct access to Nagano Station and the Midori shopping center. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff are helpful and friendly. It's convenient for transportation, shopping, and dining. There's direct access to Nagano Station, the bus terminal, and the Midori shopping center. It's also close to Zenkoji Temple and the Togakushi bus stop, as well as Don Quijote and various restaurants.

Overall, we had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The lobby had a lovely, refreshing scent that immediately created a clean and welcoming atmosphere. I recommend traveling by car, as it makes exploring nearby attractions and establishments much easier. Buses are available, but their schedules are limited.
The food was good and offered great value compared with other hotels we have tried in Nagano. Most of the front desk staff, especially the female and international staff, were warm, polite, and welcoming. Unfortunately, one Japanese male staff member appeared visibly annoyed while assisting us, which felt less welcoming.
Despite this, our overall experience was positive. The hotel is comfortable, convenient, and offers good value for money.

I really liked the hotel and my room; it’s a real shame I arrived late and left early. I hope I’ll have another chance to visit Nagano, explore the area a bit more—because it’s absolutely beautiful—and stay at this hotel for a few days.
The room wasn’t cramped, the windows offered a great view of the city, and the location was quite good.
It’s a shame I didn’t know the hotel ran a shuttle service from the station. It was rather unpleasant to have to trudge through the heat to the hotel after a long day, only to find the shuttle waiting at the entrance.

Quick facts about Nagano
General info
What to know before visiting Nagano
Quick snapshot of Nagano and what draws visitors
Nagano sees most bookings for Tours and outdoor & sports activities, and demand has a strong seasonal pulse through the year. Klook data show a clear winter peak in February and a deep trough in August, so the city alternates between busy winter months and much quieter late-summer months.
Best times to visit based on crowds and prices
According to Klook booking data, the busiest month is February while the quietest is August. Prices drift through the year: they are typically highest around November and December and fall to their lowest around June. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, aim for late spring to early summer; if you prefer peak-season atmosphere and more activity, visit in winter around February. Demand and prices partly diverge — winter brings the biggest crowds even though the very priciest month by Klook data is in late autumn.
Tips for travellers
Most visitors book activities a bit in advance — typical Klook bookings are made around ten days ahead, with many people still booking within a couple of days of travel. For a short, flexible trip you can still secure Tours and outdoor experiences at short notice, but if you travel in peak winter months it pays to plan a few weeks ahead to lock in popular slots. Use Klook to compare options and reserve the specific activities you want so your trip matches your preferred pace.
