Hotel Kashima no Mori

With my wife’s birthday coming up again this year, we visited Karuizawa, a place filled with memories for the two of us. We were blessed with great weather and enjoyed a relaxing stay—taking walks and cycling around Karuizawa as the autumn leaves began to change, and spending time shopping.We were also very pleased with the thoughtful hospitality from the hotel staff, including a birthday message card, as well as the delicious food, our favorite wine, and the birthday cake.For us as a couple, this is truly a wonderful hotel.

There were four of us. Even though it had been raining every day, the weather was perfectly clear for these two days. We were truly moved by how beautiful the greenery in the hotel courtyard was. The scones and tea served with brunch were a hit—everyone said they were the best they’d ever had. The venison curry for lunch was incredibly tender, and we agreed it’s something you can only enjoy here. There were plenty of amenities as well, and we were more than satisfied with the girls’ getaway plan. Thank you very much for your hospitality, and our sincere thanks to all of the staff.
