Large rooms and very comfortable beds. A bit far from the station but manageable if you don't have extra large luggage. Super delicious Korean restaurant nearby with a very friendly Korean owner. It's a must if you like Korean food ,!!

It’s a tranquil area, right next to the New art museum and glass-made chapel. The kettle in the room is a warm touch, kept us warm with hot drinks walking in from the freezing temperature.

The room was large for a Japan property, and the staff were extremely helpful throughout our stay. The hotel is well located on the street with lots of restaurants and shops. The only thing was that parking was a bit further and the furniture/hotel was definitely a bit dated, for example, the air conditioner. However, they were all in functioning condition. I would recommend this place at the price point that we paid for.

It lives up to its name with peaceful, park surroundings. Beautiful reception and high quality food served for breakfast. Felt like being in a grand restaurant. Everything was unique, farm fresh milk and cream. Banquet to savour anyone’s tastes. The amenities in the room were high quality along with robes and slippers. Some unique features of the shower but just a new custom.

部屋が広い。価格に対してベッドも清潔で悪くなかった。ドリンクサービスがとても良い。三国のクッキーが販売されていた(現上皇陛下がお越しの際お出ししたものとのこと。購入したが素晴らしく美味しかった)。チェックインが遅れ夜勤のスタッフに対応いただきましたが、夜勤スタッフも、日勤スタッフにもとても良くしていただきました。部屋でエアコンのコントロールができなかった(多分)ようだが、室温はちょうど良かった。

フロントの方々は人当たりが良くこれぞホテルマンというような感じでした。 お部屋も年期を感じさせてはいますが、清潔でした。 ただ一点気になったところは天井に付いているシーリングファンがガタガタしていた事です。落ちてこないか少し心配になりました。

軽井沢駅から充分歩ける距離にあり、スタッフの皆さまもとても親切です。部屋は清潔で、加湿器もあります。次の日は朝から、旧軽井沢銀座通りまで歩きました。こちらは少々距離がありましたが（25分くらい）空気もキレイで、早朝から開店しているカフェに寄り道しながら、散歩感覚で歩けました。また、利用させていただきたいです。

軽井沢駅と旧軽井沢銀座入口までの中間地点にあり、とても便利でした。 設備は古いですが、清潔でした。 部屋の近くのウォーターサーバーの水が切れていましたが、ホテルスタッフの方に伝えると補充していただけました。 評判通り、朝食バイキングがどれもとてもおいしかったです。 ホテルでレンタルサイクルを借りることができるのも便利でした。 お値段もリーズナブルなので、軽井沢に泊まる際には又宿泊したいと思います。
