Hotels Near Takarasei Temple in Karuizawa

From our recent visit to the Karuizawa Marriott Hotel, we're excited to share the essence of this secluded gem. With its sprawling suites and gourmet dining options, the hotel is a sanctuary of comfort amidst the snowy splendor of Karuizawa. The experience is further elevated by the warmth of the staff and the blissful moments spent in the onsen. 😍So Good: Impeccable Cleanliness: The hotel's dedication to a pristine environment was evident and appreciated. Heartwarming Service: The staff's attentiveness and warmth made our stay delightful. Restful Onsen: The onsen provided a haven of relaxation, enhancing our retreat. Delectable Breakfast: The diverse breakfast options were a culinary delight each morning. 🙁Not So OK: Secluded Location: Its distance from the city and public transport requires some planning. Seasonal Crowds: Winter brings the beauty of snow but also high demand and prices. 👌Just OK: 👨‍🦲Zen Minimalism: The room's minimalist Zen decor may not resonate with those in search of traditional luxury. Standard Amenities: The facilities met our needs without exceeding expectations. Ski Area Access: While the hotel offers a shuttle to the ski area, there is still a walk involved to reach the ski gates, which might be a consideration for some guests. 💡 Tips and Recommendation: ♨Onsen Choices: Opt for the building with its own onsen for a private dip, or brave the open-air onsen for a magical winter experience. 🚘Transport Planning: While there's a shuttle service, having private transportation is convenient. Marriott Bonvoy Benefits: Leverage Bonvoy membership for enhanced stay experiences; it's worth signing up for. 👏Conclusion: Capturing the magic of the Karuizawa Marriott Hotel in mere words is a challenge; it's an experience that truly needs to be felt personally. It's a destination that may very well become your next must-visit retreat.

We stayed here for 2 nights straight from Narita. It was easy enough to navigate from the station with 2 big suitcases and 2 small children at night. It was relatively close to 2 convenience stores so we could easily stock up on supplies. We booked the family room but I was a bit disappointed that whilst there was a separate tatami area meant for the kids there was no bedding to speak of. Even pillows or blankets. So they squeezed in with us in the beds. Otherwise the room itself was nice and compact but not too cramped due to the additional tatami area. The bath tub was a nice touch and well enjoyed by the kids. The breakfast spread was small but delicious. There was a games time in the evenings where there was sometimes popcorn or other snacks and drinks available. The staff were very helpful and friendly with sightseeing options and bus schedules despite their limited English. We felt very welcomed here.

The hotel is just a 5 minute walk from Karuizawa station. Take the north exit on the bridge/walkway after coming up from Shinkansen platform, it's the left. There's a tourist info with helpful people at the end of the corridor, and an escalator next to it. Once you come out, with your back to the station, walk straight down the road, and take left at the first traffic light, near the Shell station. The hotel is opposite Family Mart. Staff are friendly and helpful. Room was generous-sized with an ante-room which has a fridge, some storage cupboards and the main room is nice and big with a good-sized bed. They provide 2 bottles of water. You can take day trips to Naka Karuizawa, Shiraiito Falls among other destinations using the bus service outside the station. It's a lot easier if you have Suica card or you will need to carry many 1000 yen notes. On the way back you can you can stop off at Kyu Karuizawa and walk the streets of Old Ginza. It can also be reached by foot, takes about 25-30 minutes.

One of the hotels I don't want to teach a few of them. I renovated the place where it was the original 々 store and was in the hotel, but I had a good sense and stayed in New York well, but I feel like I remind you of that time. The size is sufficient and the amenities are substantial. The Japanese room I stayed in also has floor heating, so comfortable and so reasonable hotel is the first time. Usually stay in a foreign hotel chain, but it doesn't pull at all. The staff is also very friendly and polite. I would like to come again.

West side was around 10 min walk from the outlet mall and took us nearly 30 mins to walk (with a kid) to the East Side Snow Park. Room was just okay for its price - lobby looks better and newer than the room which was a bit old fashioned, yellowish (without a full mirror too) and not spacious. We drove there. For this price point, we would try other hotels next time, like Hilton in the area, given we need to walk a long way from West Side to everywhere, even to the hotel lobby and car park.

The location is excellent, next to the ski resort, and very close to shopping malls and stations. You can choose to walk or take the shuttle bus. There are staff at the front desk who can speak English and Chinese, so you can check in easily even if you don't speak Japanese.

The room is not small, clean and tidy, the bed is large, and the facilities are complete. The surrounding environment is like a natural park. It is a bit far from the JR station, less than three kilometers. There are convenience stores, barbecue restaurants and steakhouses around, and the inner and outer ring bus stops are not far away. However, there is only one bus every hour, so you have to plan your trip on time. The overall feeling of accommodation is good, and the breakfast is also OK.

We stayed for 2 nights this time on our second stay. 1We stayed in a family room for one night but it was very comfortable with ample size to spend with family 3 people. From the balcony you can see the golf course and Mt. Asama surrounded by nature, and your heart is calm. The hotel here is great with hot springs in the annex. It is very pleasant to be soaked in a bathtub while watching Mt. Asama during the daytime with good weather. The breakfast buffet was firmly equipped with infection measures and I was able to eat with peace of mind. I like it so delicious that fruit juice is added. The hotel staff is soft and only 々 who greets you when you pass. I was able to stay very comfortable.

Two adults and five children (13,11,9,5,0 age) A total of 7 people stayed in 2 rooms. I was planning to just sleep on the way to my destination, so the price was given priority first. After making a reservation, it seems that the radio waves are difficult to reach and difficult to understand, so I received a polite contact from the person in charge several times. (It seems accurate if it is Google Maps.) The arrival time was close to 22:00, but the person in charge was waiting for me to illuminate the surrounding area with the car light, so I was able to check in smoothly. (Since there are several accommodation facilities, it seems that they were waiting in the accommodation building instead of the building with the front desk.) Both rooms are 2DK and the water area is organized. ［ Toilet ､ Washroom ､ Dressing room + Bathroom ］ Depending on people, it may be difficult to calm down and add. The bedroom is a king-sized bedroom + Japanese-style room. I was surprised in a very beautiful room. While I'm spending time, I can see the oldness of the building itself with Dan 々, but considering the cost performance, it falls into a slug. Wi-Fi (prepared) + Radio waves are always the weakest as facilities. It is easier to pick up radio waves when you go out outdoors. I didn't care because I was just sleeping this time, but I don't have a TV, so I hope that the Wi-Fi environment will be at least arranged 🙏 (because you can spend in a very quiet environment, you can hit digital detox) In addition, bath towels ､ face towels are provided with amenities, but they are quite fluffy, so if you are interested, we recommend that you bring them with you. It is a very reasonable and perfect facility for staying without meals and long-term stays. I would like to use it next time. [Bathroom installation] Shampoo, conditioner, body soap of POLA ”SHOWER BREAK” series [Washing basin installation] Foam soap brush ､ Kushi ､ Cotton + Cotton Swab + Hair Rubber Set ､ Shaving [Kitchen] There is no hot water heater, microwave oven, freezer + refrigerator, stove (kitchen tools such as frying pans, pots, dishwasher ､ sponge. Coffee cup ､ Yuzu ､ Kyusu was prepared .) 〈 Aside 〉 Neighboring gas stations close early, so we recommend refueling with plenty of room.

It's been ９ years since I visited here. The good thing about this hotel is that the room was very large, very private, very relaxing, and I had a meaningful time. This time, I didn't eat at the buffet venue because I was in the corona, so I took it back to my room and ate. I think this was good because I was able to eat while watching TV in the room, and I didn't worry about infection. Is the bath flowing directly from the source? I don't know, but I think it was very good. The negative point is that the Wi-Fi in the room is now cut off in the middle of the pass, and even if it is connected, the speed is slow and useless. ９ I visited for the first time in a year, but the previous Vikings were very satisfied with the number of items, but this time there were not many items, and it was very disappointing that it was the same every day. However, the hotel life with a lot of private feeling is the best. I will use it again next time.
