Basic Hotel Chichibu

I stayed here for an event and a shrine visit. The front desk staff were extremely friendly, and that alone made the heat and fatigue melt away. Their explanation of the Room location and the check-out procedure was also very clear. The Room had wooden flooring, was very spacious, and comfortable to stay in. The bathroom did not have a shower curtain like a typical unit bath, so when showering in the tub I took a little care not to get the outside wet (it was fine). Two sets of amenities were provided, and it was helpful that disposable chopsticks were included as well. I used one toothbrush and one pair of chopsticks. Thanks to that, I slept well. Check-out is done by dropping off the key. It was such a good Hotel that I almost regretted not being able to say “thank you for your help” in person. If I have the chance, I would like to stay again.

Located in the heart of a retro streetscape shopping arcade. After checking in at the main building, you walk for a short while and unlock the security yourself to enter this annex. The interior was surprisingly spacious, and having the bath and toilet separate made it very comfortable. Both Rooms were clean, and it felt so comfortable you wouldn’t think it had been renovated. Check-out was also easy, so we could head out into town early in the morning. Chichibu Shrine is also very close by, making it an ideal location for sightseeing. The main building is great as well, but this annex is highly recommended too.
