hotel karuizawa elegance

Good location,very quiet and friendly staffs.

It will be nice if breakfast place is more spacious or at outside terrace.

The staff at this hotel and so welcoming and helpful, they pointed out places to eat and made my stay extra special. The rooms in this hotel are much larger than in larger cities so it is particularly friendly for the foreign traveler, the town was founded (in part) by a Christian missionary so that gives an international and welcoming feeling to English speakers. Many signs are written in English and the local people do their best to communicate in English when they get the chance.

Nothing. The hotel was wonderful, quiet and situated across from a forest. It was peaceful and relaxing, a place to rest, breathe and take in the beauty. Some of the best coffee in the world is served just down the street, and the hotel is easy to find, its a short (10-15 min) walk from the train station if you have rollable luggage. This hotel is east of the major shopping street, in between the more touristy area and the train station. On the other side of the train station, there's a huge glamorous mall with all of the most famous brands.
