Hotels With parking in Nagano Prefecture, Japan

A good hotel close to Nagano Station, though it's still about a 10-minute walk. They offer a buffet breakfast and even room cleaning (despite what was stated during booking about no cleaning for stays under 3 nights). Essential amenities are provided, including a hairdryer, kettle, mugs, toothbrushes, and so on. Downside #1: It gets cold inside during winter, so you have to turn on the air conditioning for heating. Downside #2: The outlets don't charge European laptops, even with an adapter. Downside #3: The Wi-Fi periodically disconnected.

A very charming cottage, though be prepared for slightly older facilities inside. There was a faint musty smell, but personally, I didn't find it too bothersome, and it was impeccably clean. Taller individuals might want to consider other options. The hotel's surroundings are excellent, and it's super close to both the outlet mall and the station, with a shuttle service available. The hotel also features tennis courts and other activities. The breakfast quality and dining environment were both great – definitely worth booking. Major highlight: You can rent bicycles and e-bikes directly from the hotel. If you rent for a full day, you don't need to return it before 5 PM. If returning after 5 PM, just park the bike in the designated spot and drop the key and receipt into the collection box. I highly recommend the e-bikes for exploring Karuizawa!

The hotel is nestled in the mountains, and the morning views from our rooms were absolutely breathtaking. On a few mornings with light drizzle, a mist swirled around the mountains, making it feel like we were living among the clouds. There was just one minor issue: the hotel initially wanted to charge 300 yen per person per day simply because it offers a public bath. As I’m not comfortable using such facilities, I didn’t visit the bath at all. However, at checkout, I was surprised to see an additional charge of over 1,000 yen for my family on the invoice. Although the amount was small, it didn’t seem fair to be charged for a facility we didn’t use. After I raised this concern, the front desk manager stepped in and kindly waived the fee. Aside from this slight issue, my stay was wonderful and thoroughly enjoyable.

Even though I checked in late, the staff was very accommodating. There was a complimentary drink service on the first floor, so I was able to get some coffee. The bathroom and toilet were a combined unit, but since I was mainly just sleeping there, it didn't bother me too much. I really appreciated having plenty of power outlets.

This is a perfect spot in Nagano if you want to take a break before heading to other parts such as Hakuba for skiing . It is literally right at the station and connected via MIDORI where you can buy groceries and with lots of restaurants. Due to fight delay, we arrived late at night at around 10pm. MIDORI shops were all closed but ht path to hotel still open and we can still find plenty of cafes nearby. It has reserved Alpico bus to Hakuba right at hotel or you may go to the regular bus stop at bus station 26 for higher frequency of bus service. Will definitely stay here again if we need to stop over at Nagano. Though the hotel is not new, it’s spacious and clean enough for a comfortable stay .

We loved our stay at Waypoint great property the sauna was outstanding lm, the room was clean & the staff were very lovely & helpful. The check-in process was a little complicated mostly because we had one son that was injured and it was a little time-consuming.

to stay at this hotel was amazing. The staff was super helpful and gave many recommendations. The room was very big and the hotel was in a convenient place. 

The location is super convenient, really close to the subway, making it easy to get anywhere! It's my top pick for a layover. The service attitude is also great! The room is small but has everything you need, and the breakfast buffet is pretty good too!

The best thing about this hotel is its incredibly convenient location. You can see the JR entrance right from your room, which is perfect for those catching early morning day trips (many tour groups meet right by the JR ticket gates). Plus, when you return in the evening, you're right by all the restaurants at the JR station. The room itself is quite small, but the breakfast spread is excellent.

The room is small but well-maintained. The location is fantastic with great views from the rooftop, although there's only a vending machine up there. It would be excellent if the hotel offered more amenities.
