Hoshinoya Karuizawa/Nagano Prefecture

Hoshinoya Karuizawa is always mentioned as one of the must-stay hot spring inns. 🕊️ With a site area of approximately 13,000 tsubo, it feels more like a village than a hotel, surrounded by rich nature. 🌿 A walk around the entire area takes about 15 minutes. 🚶 The river flowing through the center has spots that look like floating islands, where you can see ducks swimming gracefully. 🤍 In early July, when I stayed, I also saw some baby ducks, which was very soothing. 🥰 〒389-0194 Hoshino, Karuizawa Town, Kitasaku District, Nagano Prefecture
