3 star hotels in Karuizawa

We stayed here for 2 nights during a late summer. The hotel located closed by Toys Kingdom, which is convenience for our purposed. The room we selected equipped with toys, and that our kids quite like it! The room was quite dated while most of facilities works perfectly. The room was not perfectly designed for kids (1 and 5 years) due to it outdated layout (the room door was not a slide door and the...

At first I really couldn't find the main door. I thought I had to take the stairs to carry my luggage up, but I ended up taking the elevator from the hot spring area to the second floor and walking through the overpass to the main building to check in! The environment is very beautiful and the soup is also good!

The place overall it's quite good, especially with the food and shinkansen package. My biggest complaint are the beds which are terrible, uncomfortable, and really messed up my back. Everything else could be awesome but at the end of the day it's a hotel and if the beds are terrible it loses out on a couple stars.

Great Hotel with lots of amenities for kids and adults. There are 3 different restaurants that you can choose , Japanese style , Foreign style and an open buffet. Nearbybthere is a very big Kids entertainment park with animals and toys. Restaurants starts from 8 pm and you can enjoy the hot springs( inside the hotel). before the Restaurant.

Dinner buffet is lots of delicious cooks Including japan local ,Chinese dumpling,desserts,ice cream And then you can enjoy hotspring to relax the tour tiredness and also go to the forest to absorb the energetic air . If you go to japan and come here Don't miss the fulfill comfortable atmosphere hotel.

Great! But there aren't enough shuttle buses and the signage isn't clear.

We spent 2 nights in Prince after first 2 nights in Kusatsu onsen town. The hotel looked underwhelming on arrival and the front office service was efficient but cursory compared to the warm hospitality we had in the ryokan stay. It was low season and hotel was very quiet and had a "cold" atmosphere. I was further disappointed when we were shown our room which was on the lowest floor with a simple...

The room was great, clean and hygienic, and the view was beautiful.

The front desk and restaurant staff were all so friendly, beautiful, and stylish (a feast for the eyes). They helped us carry our luggage to our room and explained all the facilities in detail, such as the mini-cart required to use the public pool, the forest sanctuary, and the shuttle bus. We enjoyed watching the Big Dipper at night and the sea of ​​clouds in the morning.

The environment here is absolutely beautiful; you can enjoy stunning views right from your window every morning. It's also very convenient to drive to all the attractions in Karuizawa. The breakfast is exquisite and delicious, and the view from the window is breathtaking. Most importantly, the outdoor hot spring offers panoramic views, making soaking in the hot spring feel like being in a fairyland...

The room was immaculately clean, and the welcoming staff was very friendly. We had a French set menu for dinner, which was delicious! The breakfast buffet offered both Japanese and Western dishes, and the food was delicious and varied! Another fun thing was the short tram ride to the hot spring baths. The water is natural, and it was a delightful experience to soak in the baths while gazing at the...

The hotel was very quiet and the room was a good size for two people. There's also free parking outside the hotel, and the breakfast was delicious. However, the location is over 2 kilometers from the shopping center, so it's more suitable for those traveling by car.

A bit quiet, luckily got convenience store nearby.

Nice place and very convenient. It has everything you need for a pleasant stay in Karuizawa.

Large Clean rooms, need own car to get around.

The room is a bit small, and dirts were found on the bedsheets, gave us a bad first impression. However, hot water and microwave are easily accessible, which is a plus for people who feel hungry at late night.

Selected this hotel for 1 night stay. It is a simple hotel but there service was great

Beautiful hotel with very good breakfast. Location is good but it is not easy for senior because no elevator and also not easy to pull the suitcase from parking to main building.

Nice room but check in/checkout procedures were a little rigid

Good place to stay for vacation

Good environment, is very chill here but location is abit far so we need to go by taxi. This area is abit hard to find food with walking area.

They kindly upgraded our room on the day of arrival! The location was super convenient for getting anywhere, and my boyfriend and I really enjoyed the private bath, which had flexible hours. There was coffee and tea available at the front desk, which we took with us when checking out. It's a really great hotel!

Be careful that the actual room is not the same as trip shown. Everything is good but the room wasn’t my expected. Finally trip.com refunded me a certain amount, fair enough. Look at my photos, if you accept such a room paying this price, go for head, with free-spa, no complain. Just because it wasn’t what I wanted😂😂

Great value for money room, will stay here again. Clean and great service. Highly recommend!

A very relaxing hotel Good design Good Breakfast

Very good service with varies welcome drinks make you relax upon arrive hotel but not rush to your hotel room. Location is right in the middle of old karuizawa is so convenient. Dinner is acceptable which i tried the lowest and highest price. Worth to try!

Nice hotel provided yummy breakfast and amazing happy hour for free drinks and snacks. The provides different bath salt that helped me have a relax bathing time while stay. I would suggest to have a full light block curtain to improve my sleep.

New and stylish hotel. Good price including free coffee, cocktail and snack. Recommend hotel list.

⭐Had a really great stay at Twin Line Hotel Karuizawa! The location is convenient and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The room was clean, cozy, and nicely designed — very comfortable bed too. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay, which made everything smooth and pleasant. Would definitely come back next time I’m in Karuizawa.

The hotel is a short walk from the train station and shopping outlets and around 10-15 mins to the Nakasendo Trail and supermarkets. Managed to get a load of laundry done at the coin laundry in their connecting building Staff were friendly and helpful. Had a lovely view of the ski fields so can't complain 😊 Might be a downside for some, but the heating or cooling is controlled centrally, so the...

Hotel is conveniently located near Karuizawa station, breakfast and service provided by hotel staff are good. Cleanliness of the room can be improved. The bed is not as comfy, it feels like there are no mattress springs and you can feel yourself sinking in, it can be better. Overall, with this reasonable price point, this hotel is ok.

The location is very convenient. The room was small but acceptable, and the in-room amenities were good. However, the breakfast selection was very limited and did not meet expectations. This is an area that could definitely be improved.

Free coffee is a nice touch, and it's Mikado Coffee too! The hotel is conveniently located near the station and the outlet mall, which was a huge plus.

Enjoyed the breakfast spread, very authentic and homely, will recommend this place as it’s near ski slopes

As others have commented, the breakfast is delicious. I especially recommend the Apa curry.

The property is very chic, classic and elegant. Simple lobby and warm welcome from the front line staff truly represents Karuizawa vibe. Twin room is super spacious and garden in the middle of the building is very calming to enjoy. Lounge area is very neat, clean and offers generous refreshment from coffee, tea and cookies. Location is superb with only 5 minutes walk from Shinkansen station. We rented...

This hotel was FANTASTIC. The delivered breakfast, the amenities, the staff -- all 100%. Plus, it's 10 min walk from the train station. Super safe and right next to Lawson's. I almost do not want to reveal this fantastic place, but I could not! Thank you.

This hotel has good location near the train station and outlet . The room size is ok , quiet , and has a big library area for reading and relaxing but all the books are in Japanese so not really catering for foreigners . The atmosphere of the hotel is cold and dull , I wouldn’t want to stay there again.

We stayed at Hotel Grand Vert Kyukaruizawa during our winter trip and had such a wonderful experience. When we arrived, the temperature had dipped to just 1°C, and we were so thankful for the warm welcome that awaited us. The check-in process was smooth, and the staff were polite, helpful, and very accommodating — a great first impression after a long drive from Tokyo. Our family room was spacious...

The staff were extremely helpful. Hotel location was also convenient (next to Karuizawa Station). Couldnt ask for more.

I stayed in the grand room (4 bedroom suite) with my family and we had a pleasant stay. I can see that the suite was a bit old but was well maintained. Staff was very professional and thoughtful too. My son left his favourite teddy in the room and we realized it when we were on the bullet train back home but the hotel staff found it and sent it back to us asap.

I stayed at Hotel Marroad Karuizawa, which is about a 12-minute walk from Karuizawa Station. The surrounding area is very quiet and peaceful. The lobby has a charming retro Showa-era vibe, and the hotel is a two-story building. The room was spacious, comfortable, and very quiet. The Japanese-style futon mattress was thick and extremely comfortable, while the Western-style bed had a good balance of...

The location is convenient, close to the old town and some attraction. However, the hotel is a little old with limited amenities, no washer/dryer, no ironing etc. However, they have shuttle services to the ski park with equipment rental. So it depends on your activities, it’s just not so suitable for me with a very small toddler. - No elevator, you have to carry your luggage to the room from carpark...

The room was spacious and clean. However, there was a lot of noise from the room above, so I think the soundproofing was poor. They also provided a shuttle to the station, which was very convenient.

This is my second stay here, following the New Year's holiday. Even though it's within walking distance of Karuizawa Station, I really appreciate the shuttle service. The room was spacious and clean, and the food was delicious.

There's a long staircase leading from the outdoor area to the lobby; there's no elevator. Staff helped carry our luggage in. The room was huge, and the view from the window was lovely, with trees and pleasant scenery. The room was a bit old and lacked electronic sensors, so staff used a translation device to communicate. Their service was excellent.

A hotel suitable for those who like Showa style

The hotel is conveniently located near the JR station. It's not large, but it's well-equipped, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Even without speaking Japanese or English, communication wasn't an issue. The cleanliness is also very good. It's a great base for getting around, with attractions within walking distance. Plus, the nearby supermarket has discounts on sashimi and set meals after...

The service was polite, and the environment was clean.

The hotel is super close to the JR station, making it really convenient for getting around. The front desk staff also spoke English, so check-in was smooth. However, I was on the second floor, and the window was sealed shut, so I couldn't see anything outside at all.

Great hotel with breakfast and a convenient shuttle bus to the premium outlet / railway statio

Pretty good, very clean, and a newly opened hotel. The service was very warm and welcoming. We received a welcome snack of cookies upon check-in. There's a cozy fireplace in the lobby, perfect for warming up. The curry at breakfast was delicious!

This is a wonderfully cozy hotel with an overall atmosphere that makes you feel relaxed and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and attentive, leaving an excellent first impression. The hotel has its own station and offers a shuttle service to the ski resort, making transportation very convenient. Even if you miss the shuttle, it's only about a 10-minute walk from the station to the hotel, which...

Good location and near to the Prince Shopping centre and the ski centre. Clean and tidy place.

Room are only come with twin bed instead of king or queen bed and hotel under renovation ezternal part so no view all Stay location is bit far from station which about 10mins walk better to call a teksi about 800-1000yen for a trip. Overall suitable for family stay instead of solo trip..

The staff were polite, and the room was incredibly spacious and comfortable. The two beds pushed together made for a huge sleeping area, perfect for our 3 and 5-year-olds to share. Plus, parking is free!

Pros - 1. Hotel apartment is 15 mins by walk from karuizawa station, still walkable. Hotel does not provide any shuttle bus 2. Room is spacious and it is equipped with microwave, stove & fridge. It does not come with any kitchen ware though and need to request the items you need clearly. It is hard to communicate as the staffs do not speak English well 3. It is 3 mins by walk away from a big supermarket...

The room was super spacious, and the breakfast was delicious.

The food was delicious, and everything was explained thoroughly. The room was also very spacious, clean, and comfortable. Thank you very much! It was wonderful, I'd love to stay again.

The location and the quality of the breakfast were excellent. The French toast was especially delicious, and I'll definitely include breakfast next time I stay. It was also great that I could watch Netflix and YouTube on the TV.

Very clean, rich breakfast 👍

Had a lovely stay here. Large rooms with comfortable beds. Friendly and kind service from the staff.

Great hotel. Spacious rooms with big beds. Good location, very friendly and polite, real omotenashi service.

Large room and friendly owners. Stayed one night on our way to Tokyo. When we come back to Karuizawa we would like to stay longer.

Particularly love the surroundings of woods and holiday house estate. Peaceful neighbor and nice to take a walk around the area. The staff were friendly and funny. The hotel is not so far from Old Karuizawa Street. 20 minutes walk to the Train station where there’s a big shopping mall and place to eat. There’s also local bus running circle to get to the station and around the area for other sightseeing...

Free pickup and dropoff are very limited with certain hour for one side. The entertainment area is an advantage plus point! Hotspring all day, which is great Breakfast: 3/5

The location and staff were great, and the breakfast was delicious.

It was a much nicer and more stylish hotel than I expected! Thank you very much for the fun time! (´▽｀)

Everything was great. The room was large and comfortable, the staff were polite, and complimentary coffee and tea were provided. The parking lot was spacious, so there was no need to worry about finding a spot when returning late. The only downside was that I booked a one-night stay with two meals included, but I was disappointed. Dinner: The semi-buffet wasn't a problem, but there was only one main...

The hot spring was nice, and the rooms were clean.

The drink service in the lounge was very much appreciated. The furniture was old and disappointing. The breakfast buffet was Western-style and delicious, but personally I would have preferred rice.

Very nice service and attentive staff.

if you are driving, location is not a concern, otherwise you might need to reconsider. Staff are nice and helpful. I didn't expect there is a bath operating overnight which is very nice to have when you have a long travel day.

This is probably my third time staying here. I've heard that the situation at ryokans is tough these days, but from the lantern at the entrance to the cozy large bath, the heating is excellent, and the sliding screens don't look unfashionable and don't let the heat escape, I always feel the beauty of the Japanese style.

The welcome was excellent. They escorted us out the door upon departure, which was very friendly. Breakfast included watermelon. This is a historic hotel with plenty of books on the first floor. The sofa chairs in the Japanese-style room were very comfortable. The guests were mainly Japanese, with a few European and American guests.

The room was nice and the breakfast and dinner were also very good

Traditional hotel at the end of famous shopping street They provided plubic bath(No onsen) for guest Tatami room is nice , and Breakfast was not so bad. Hotel is in good location to enjoy yoyr stay and workout to sightseeing Karuizawa nearby.

A pleasant stay in Dormy Club Karuizawa. Nice Onsen and great hospitality.

quiet and comfortable environment

It's alright. There was no extra charge for bringing children. The only downside is that there's pick-up and drop-off at the old Karuzu Station, which only runs twice a day, and only once a day in the morning. Driving is the best option. It's also fine for spending two days in this area. The hot springs are very nice. If you don't have a car, you'll have to take a taxi. It's inconvenient.

The room was comfortable and the staff were polite.

very helpful and polite staff, available to check in even at10.

The room was clean and had a private bathroom. The hotel facilities were excellent, the open-air hot spring was very comfortable, and there were complimentary cold drinks. The hotel staff were very helpful and assisted with taking photos. They could also arrange a drop-off service in advance and took me to the Stone Church.

The food was delicious! The service was great!

Everything that we need is ready. It is a spotless and peaceful place.

We brought our child to a nearby summer camp and stayed at Willie's Hotel for six nights. The hotel owner and friendly staff helped us pick up and drop off our child at the camp. During the day, we rode bikes or walked around, enjoying the cool 26-degree breeze of Karuizawa's summer! I've been to Japan many times, but this time, finding Willie's Hotel felt familiar and welcoming. Every morning, we...

Breakfast is excellent with fresh ingredients and cozy environment. Staff is super nice and helpful and provide extra ordinary service than expected. Highly recommend.

This small but charming hotel is within walking distance of Naka-Karuizawa Station and the Stone Church, in a very quiet and pleasant environment. The renovated rooms are simple yet elegant, and the bedding is of excellent quality. The owners, a warm and sincere couple, provided us with many conveniences during our trip. Our short vacation in Wellies not only allowed us to connect with nature but also...

The British boss is enthusiastic and the hotel staff are very gentle and kind. As long as we have any needs, they will give priority to them, whether it is picking up skis or picking up at the station. After traveling so many times, Karuizawa is the only place that makes me feel warm and welcoming. The hotel may not be the most luxurious, but it is definitely my only first choice!

It was a lovely pet friendly hotel. Although it is somehow in the middle of nowhere, it is super easy to find. The room itself is clean. One note is that it's 2 storey hotel so no elevator. As it was my last night I need to repack everything which means 2 big lugguages on the stairs but the staff was even kind enough to help me with one. Overall, decent experience. Only that sprung bed isn't the most...

Room is huge and receptionist was extremely polite. Smooth check-in process too. Will visit again!

The location is great because it's close to the ski resort and outlet mall, but there aren't many other places to go in the area, so the choices are limited. Overall, it's clean, but rather old-fashioned, more like a traditional guesthouse than a hotel. The rooms are dark and poorly lit. The toilets are very small. This hotel also welcomes dogs, so it's somewhat like a dog hotel. There's absolutely...

The hotel's front desk hours are 9:00-21:00. We arrived at around 8:45 pm, and the front desk staff were very helpful in arranging things for us and even helped us carry our luggage upstairs. There is no elevator on the second floor of the hotel, but they were very considerate, and the soundproofing was excellent.

Accommodation was good and convenient, just a 10 mins drive from karuizawa station. There’s also free parking.

The room was bigger than I expected and the environment was comfortable.

Nice environment and good service

The room was clean and the service was good.

Use without meals on a trip to Karuizawa. The hotel is clean, not so big, and I don't have breakfast, so I don't receive the hotel service, but I stayed without any complaints ^ _ ^ It seems that there were many nice restaurants in the neighborhood, so it might have been good to do some more preliminary research. thank you for helping me.

It was a very good room at a low price.

Nice small hotel with hot bath, tasty food and nice rooms.

Quaint and cozy a wonderful place to stay

The location is great, and the activities are well-organized. The shuttle service to various attractions is super convenient. However, the room layout is quite odd; my husband hit his head on the beam at least 5 times...

You can take the resort bus to Hoshinoya; the food and prices at the village canteen are quite good. From the JR station to the hotel, you can only take a taxi.

The room was great. The Stone Church is right behind the hotel, and Yulin Town is next door. There are also restaurants and hot springs nearby. It's fantastic!

The hotel was surprisingly nice. There's a church nearby, and a shuttle bus to the cafeteria. However, the cafeteria food was really bad. The Karuizawa area is somewhat similar to Aranya. Also, you'll need to take a taxi frequently. It's suitable for a vacation, but don't have high expectations for the food.

Superb! Very convenient for getting to Hoshino Onsen, with a shuttle bus. The bunk beds were fun, and the kids had a blast. The room had two separate spaces, which was great 👍. There were also two washing machines and two dryers, so we could do laundry every day.

The hotel has a nice, quiet environment and offers plenty of self-service options, making it more suitable for young people than families.

It was a shame that there was no large public bath, but I was able to relax in the quaint building.

The hot springs ♨️ are very good.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is located about a ten-minute drive from the city center (if you drive), which is a good value for the price. On the downside, the hotel itself is a bit dated (though definitely clean!), and there's not much to see nearby.

Convenient location: Close to the tourist attractions in Karuizawa, and the price was reasonable.

The soundproofing of the room is average, and the location of the hotel is not very convenient. It is too far from Naka Karuizawa and takes more than 20 minutes to walk.

Good location and serve good food.

We were truly happy with our stay. In fact, we regret only staying for one night—it simply wasn’t enough for us. The room amenities were exceptional, featuring L’Occitane shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, which made the experience feel even more luxurious. We also appreciated the thoughtful touch of complimentary bottled water chilled in the refrigerator. Breakfast was absolutely a must...

Great service staff and hotel that gave an old school charm. Breakfast was a continental style set which was great. The room was dated but comfortable

The room was quite spacious, even by Japanese standards for hotels. The environment was lovely, and it happened to snow during my stay, making the garden views absolutely beautiful!

Nice and quiet area of town. Would be better if there's indoor passage to different building.

This French-style house has a lot of history and is nestled in a quiet, forested area with great air quality. It's very close to Old Karuizawa and convenient for visiting Shiraito Falls and Kumoba Pond. The service is very polite, and the interesting old-fashioned key adds to its nostalgic charm. It is a bit pricey, though; weekday rates are much better!

This hotel is a quiet, tastefully decorated old villa. We stayed here and took the hotel's shuttle for skiing and shopping in the mornings. The arrangements were very well-organized. In the evenings, the hotel even gave marshmallows to the kids to roast over the fireplace. It's perfect for families.
