Airport Guide
Compare 5 airports near Suwa
Choosing the right arrival point for Suwa requires balancing travel time and logistical convenience. Nagoya Airport (NKM), located in a neighboring city, is the closest geographic option, offering efficient access for those who prefer driving or private transfers. Shizuoka Airport (FSZ), also outside the city, stands out as the most budget-friendly for travelers connecting through the regional rail network, though it requires multiple transfers. Haneda Airport (HND) serves as a primary international gateway; while farther, it provides the most frequent train connections, making it ideal for international visitors arriving in Japan. Chubu Centrair International Airport (NGO) provides high-quality facilities for international travelers but requires a longer commute through the Nagoya metropolitan transport system. Finally, Noto Airport (NTQ) serves the region from a significant distance and is typically only practical for specific route planning. We recommend evaluating your flight itinerary against these transit connections, as arrival hubs in neighboring cities necessitate regional transfers that vary significantly in frequency and duration.

I stayed here on a business trip.
It is located close to Suwa Interchange on the Chuo Expressway.
The room was clean and spacious.
There is also a loft-style bed.

The room I booked was a regular tatami room, but the lake view was great. The hotel service was really considerate and thoughtful. I arrived early and was told during check-in that there was a free bus tour of the four major shrines of Suwa, including a driver's explanation throughout the trip. Due to my poor Japanese, I only understood the general idea and didn't understand any of the details. The four shrines of Suwa Taisha were originally quite scattered, but now it's easy to take them all. The breakfast was made with local specialties and was very healthy.FromUS$270

Extremely satisfying hotel.
In the area of Shanghai, this hot spring hotel is considered one of the highest.
First of all, the environment of the independent small courtyard is very elegant, and all 8 rooms are facing the beautiful lake view, especially the beautiful scenery under the sunset, which is really pleasing to the eye.
Secondly, the room is not only large, but also has a separate hot spring pool. Everything in the room is fine, and it is no problem to come here empty-handed. Toiletries, razors, various skin care and hair products, all have. You can also go to the mixed bath hot springs on the top floor of the 6th floor. The idea here is very chic, when entering the hot spring, men and women must wear a special clothes, similar to swimsuits.
Again, each room has a separate dining room, and walk past it for three seconds.
Then there is a local bar on the ground floor that offers locally produced sake.
Finally, walking across the small road is to visit the lake, and you can walk to the station in 8 minutes, which is really convenient. There are many restaurants around, no need to worry.FromUS$421

The location is very good. It is two or three minutes away from the station. Although the waiters do not understand English, they try their best to communicate. There is no separate bathroom in the room, but there is a wash basin to wash your face and brush your teeth. The hot spring water does not seem to be a real hot spring. There is no sulphur smell. When you take a bath. There are many Chinese and English menus in the restaurants there. The waiters don't know how to speak English. They have pictures to see pictures, no pictures, and what to eat next to the Japanese.Very Good65 Reviews

Positive aspects: The hotel is right next to Katakura-kan, about a 10-minute walk from Kami-Suwa Station, 8 minutes from Lake Suwa, and a FamilyMart convenience store is a 3-minute walk away. It's a Route Inn chain hotel, and has most of the basic amenities expected of a three-star hotel. Cleanliness and common facilities are adequate. Because it's a small town and the off-season, it's very quiet. A notable feature is its own free onsen (hot spring) public bath. The room was booked late, and the 350 yen room rate including a buffet breakfast was reasonable.
Negative aspects: The hotel seems to have been operating for a long time and is somewhat outdated. Because it's a small town, there are no restaurants near the hotel; you need to go to the train station area to eat.FromUS$43

The hotel is run by a husband and wife team who only speak Japanese, but they actively communicate using a translator.
I stayed at a lake-view hotel. Although it's on a main street, Suwa is a small city, and there's not much traffic after 8 PM, so it didn't disturb my sleep.
Even though it's a 20-minute walk from the station, I still recommend it; the view is absolutely stunning. Breakfast offers three options, which are checked at check-in.FromUS$37

Location is great, it is just on the main road and by the lake. I remember there was a Lawon convenient store not far away when we drove past. We stayed there for 1 night.
I highly doubt if we were given the wrong room type, as I booked a room that can see the full Suwa Lake, but the room we have got is at the corner. It is because of the cherry blossom season, there are so many mosquitos outside so we couldn't open any window. According to the information provided by the hotel, the mosquitos don't bite human, but create stains on clothings.
Anyway, the room has a private onsen. It was quite small, and look a bit old. The water is very hot, though I couldn't smell any sulfur so it is not a real hot spring. As the windows can't be opened, so it is a quite stuffy inside the bathroom. The room has equipped with all amenities, but no bottled water. The hotel mentioned the water is drinkable from the tab. The room is quite clean and spacious. The mattress is quite nice, it was good for taking a rest after a whole day trip. We chose the meal package (breakfast and dinner). They were both Japanese style with a lot of dishes and options. Food is great. Nagano is not a place that produces meat, so mainly there are a lot of vegetables.
With the price we paid for, the hotel services, food and everything is quite reasonable. However, the hotel is a bit old. Nothing is special other than providing a clean room to sleep.FromUS$136

The lobby and facilities are beautifully decorated in a classic, elegant style. All the staff are friendly. I can't quite remember his name, but a male staff member whose name started with 'Xiao' on his name tag was exceptionally kind. He helped me call a round-trip taxi to the park and made a great effort to communicate with me, a foreigner.FromUS$87

This was the hotel I enjoyed most during my trip to Japan (the other two were also very good). It's a newly renovated hot spring hotel right on the shores of Lake Suwa.
Facilities: The hotel offers a one-night stay with two meals, with breakfast and dinner included in the room rate. There's an indoor onsen on the 6th floor and another terrace onsen with a lake view. They have red and white baths, hence the name ”Red and White.” The restaurant is on the 2nd floor, where we serve breakfast and dinner. The first floor is also spacious and clean, with a welcome glass of sparkling water.
Cleanliness: Every room was spotless, especially the onsen area.
Ambience: Because it's located on the lake, most rooms offer a lake view. Our room was the smallest in the hotel, but it was spacious enough for two people (it could sleep up to four). The lake view is a bit off-center, but you can still see a bit. Just across the street from the hotel is the lake, and hotel guests can take a free boat ride. The boats are rarely crowded, and the scenery is truly beautiful. In August, in addition to the famous Lake Suwa Fireworks Festival, there's also a 10-minute fireworks display every evening, visible from the lakeside.
Service: The service was excellent. Mr. Lee (or Li), a Chinese-speaking staff member in the restaurant on the second floor, was truly wonderful. His detailed explanation of the dinner provided a deeper understanding of the ingredients and cooking methods for each dish. After dinner, we headed up the mountain to watch the sunset (the setting for Lake Itomori in ”Your Name”), and since it wasn't easy to get a taxi down, the hotel provided flashlights for us. They also helped us get a taxi the next morning. Overall, this is a hot spring hotel with excellent service.
Highly recommended!FromUS$86

It was the first night of my entire trip—and also the most expensive one. But it was absolutely worth it!
Lake Suwa was right in front of the hotel. If you take the train, it might be a bit of a walk, but since I drove, the location was perfect.
The hotel was incredibly spacious, and the onsen was lovely.
Dinner (a full course meal) was exceptional, and breakfast was just as impressive—absolutely delicious!
One thing I still wonder about: what were those insects outside the window at night?
They clung to the glass, and I was afraid they might get inside. Thankfully, the window seals were excellent, so none of them made it indoors. Only the outdoor bath had a few, which was understandable.
I truly hope I can go back again—with my mom next time!FromUS$53

The hotel is about a 15-minute walk from JR Suwa Station. There is a shuttle bus service at certain times. The hotel faces Lake Suwa. I booked a Japanese-style lake view room, and the view from the window was very nice. Room service staff will make the bed in the room. You can tell the front desk the specific time. The hotel has two buildings. You need to go to the other building for breakfast, which is just average. The hotel's hot spring is nice. There are various types of hot springs and pools, including an open-air hot spring. The men's and women's pools are switched every other day.FromUS$43
