Shirakabako Hotel Pipe no Kemuri

Nagano Prefecture/Chino City

50-minute bus ride, eco-friendly accommodation with self-service amenities

  • After the Obon holidays, we stayed for a Multiple Night Stay of two nights starting on August 17. We found this Hotel at the last minute the day before and were really lucky to get a Reservation. We didn’t have high expectations, but both the Shirakaba Lake area and this Hotel were very lively with many guests. We had heard it was an older building, but it didn’t feel that way much. It was well maintained, our Room had no unpleasant odors, and the toilet had a washlet, which was great. The large public bath was quite spacious, and there was also an open-air bath (the water was a bit hot). Meals were buffet-style for both breakfast and dinner, so we could choose what we liked. Guests who enjoy alcohol were happy with the 90-minute all-you-can-drink option. The dining hall could accommodate many people and had a warm atmosphere. For summer vacation season, the price for two nights was reasonable and we were very satisfied and able to relax. We would like to stay again.
