가루이자와 장난감 왕국 주변 × 만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

The owners were truly kind and welcoming, and their hospitality was very soothing. The resident dogs, Bell and Cherry, were also adorable. The Room was spacious, and the dog run outside the Room was great. All of the meals were delicious, especially the duck steak, the pudding-like dessert, the fresh salad, the morning cherry tomato salad-like dish, and the egg-salad omelet-style dish. We would love to visit again.

We stayed here for my partner’s birthday trip. Surrounded by nature in a quiet setting, we were able to step away from everyday life and spend a truly wonderful time. The room was very clean, and the Facility and amenities were well equipped, so we stayed comfortably without any inconvenience throughout our stay. The size was just right, and it felt like a very cozy space for two adults. The sauna is electric, so even someone like me who isn’t used to wood-fired saunas could enjoy it easily—and it still felt authentic, which was more than satisfying. Before our stay, they also shared helpful information such as the destination (Google Maps), what to bring, and recommended nearby places, which we really appreciated. Next time, we’d love to stay for multiple nights!

They contacted me about this. It was too late to cancel and I felt anxious, but they prepared a replacement Room—a suite—so I was able to stay with peace of mind. The front desk manager said, “Luckily it was available…,” and the Room even had a private hot-spring bath with free-flowing source water, so I was very satisfied. Thank you very much.

We stayed with you last year and returned again this year, and despite the intense heat, it was wonderfully cool, allowing both our minds and bodies to truly relax. We plan to come back again next year with our two dogs. On the way here, we were also able to visit Kumano Kotai Shrine (Kumano Kōtaijingū), famous for its “long-life shrine for dogs,” where we prayed once again this year for our dogs’ knee health and overall well-being.

This was my first time staying at this Hotel. The front desk staff were wonderful, and the food was delicious—I was very satisfied. Just one thing: coffee was provided in the morning, but it was a coffee drink rather than brewed coffee, which was a little disappointing. Still, considering everything overall, I felt it offered excellent value for money. Thank you very much.

I was worried because the reviews weren’t very good, but nothing really bothered me. In any case, it was inexpensive, the Room was spacious, and being surrounded by nature with fresh air was very refreshing. Since it was No Meals Included, we didn’t do a barbecue or anything like that, but there were lots of dogs and everyone seemed to be having a great time. Above all, the kids enjoyed it, so we were very satisfied.

Since around February this year, I’ve stayed here whenever I visit Kita-Karuizawa for work, and I’ve already returned for more than 10 nights. It’s a long-loved pension, so the building shows its age, but it’s kept very clean. Surrounded by beautiful trees, it feels like an especially perfect location in the coming season. The biggest highlight is the food. Even after staying many times, I can’t recall ever being served the same menu. The owner couple seem to thoughtfully create new dishes each time for repeat guests like me, and I truly appreciate their care. Not only do I look forward to every meal, but chatting with them after dinner has also become a wonderful travel memory. It’s located in Tsumagoi Village, but if you’re traveling to Karuizawa or Kusatsu Onsen, I highly recommend going a little further and staying at Motown. A pension I can wholeheartedly recommend!

We arrived early, but the car navigation showed the wrong Hotel location, and we got lost in the snow. The sign was also hard to see because of the snow, so I think it’s better to check on a smartphone map. The room and meals were very good, with warm homemade food. We visited Suwa before coming, and I didn’t expect Gunma to have so much snow. Last year there wasn’t much snow, so we came with regular tires; next time we’ll come with studless winter tires. We made it home safely.

First of all, the staff was very kind and attentive. The Room was thoroughly cleaned and very tidy. The bedding was also clean and comfortable. The wood stove added a nice atmosphere and a sense of escape from the ordinary, and it warmed the entire Room, making the purchase of firewood a good decision. According to my wife's opinion... A few slightly disappointing points: No makeup remover or facial cleanser in the amenities Not a three-sided mirror The bathroom floor is slippery Next time, we would like to stay for more than two nights to relax more. Also, it seems there are Facilities in other areas, so we would like to use those as well.

It was quiet, and the staff were kind. The place was well cleaned and very tidy. Buying groceries as a family and enjoying a meal in a different living room than usual was fun. What concerned me was that the washing machine lid seemed to have poor contact, so it wouldn’t go through to the spin cycle, and the living room air conditioner remote had dead batteries.

A village nestled in a quiet villa area of Kita-Karuizawa. The Accommodation is dog-friendly with free indoor access and a private dog run. The dog run is generously covered with wood chips, and the BBQ area was well maintained, so we felt comfortable letting our dog play. Sitting on the deck in front of the trailer house, you can hear the gentle stream nearby, and all you see is lush greenery with no man-made structures in sight. Luom no Mori nearby, which we were kindly introduced to, offered delicious pizza in a spacious forest garden. At Asama Otaki Falls, the shaded walking path was pleasant, and our dog occasionally walked through the stream. This tiny house combines an attractive location that’s perfect for traveling with dogs with plenty of space and convenience.

This was our dog’s first overnight trip at the age of 9. A long drive, one night at an Accommodation, and walks in an unfamiliar place—everything was a first for us. However, the Hotel staff were kind and made our stay very comfortable. There were plenty of pet amenities provided, and with a dog run and walking paths available, it was a wonderful change of pace. It’s an Accommodation we’d love to visit again.

We stayed with our dog. The Room and Facility are minimal but sufficient. However, although Wi‑Fi was broadcasting on 5G, it wasn’t connected to the internet, so we ended up enjoying a digital detox.
