Book Akakura Onsen hotels

Two adults two teens stayed in a Quad room (2 singles 2 rollaway beds) in Jan 2025 for 5 nights and separate corner sofa. The hotel is huge with different wings so need to get your bearings. Nagano was our base for day trips to snow monkeys, Matsumoto, and to ski. The hotel is older (winter Olympics HQ) but was generally well maintained. Front desk staff were amazing, they had limited English but used a translator, and so friendly every time we passed and so helpful booking restaurants and forwarding luggage (note cash only and this hotel will only forward to a hotel, not the airport). We had breakfast every day which was compact but tasty (Nagano apple juice and apple jam are delicious). We had Italian in the hotel our first night, it was ok and convenient. The top floor bar had a pretty night view, fixed price for a small but well stocked self serve bar and packaged snacks. The hotel free shuttle to/from the station is convenient, but for early or late trips we just got a taxi for Y1,000. Ten minutes pleasant walk to the shopping street leading to the temple. There are only two washing machines and dryers in the hotel so they got very busy but were really useful (coins required, no coin machine but desk staff happy to change). I was initially unsure about this hotel and staying 5 nights but we really enjoyed it and would happily go back.

Excellent Staff, extremely helpful. Breakfast was outstanding. Hotel is literally a 6 minute walk from the train station. Tons of very good food options in the station.

Clean but needed vacuuming under bed and around tv. Convenient to train station for touring and close to shopping and a variety of restaurants, with onson Lots of complimentary nice touches-toothbrushes, tips, shavers, ice cream and late nite noodles. The light control was poor-automatic light came on bright, whenever you got close to the entry and sink (annoying at night).

Wonderful night in a neat city.

Great location very nice staff

Amazing
