#OMO7 Osaka by Hoshino Resorts Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Jul)
This is my fourth visit to my favorite hotel in Japan, the Hoshino Yatsugatake, a parent-child hotel with flat-rate pricing
As the summer vacation is approaching, has everyone made their travel plans yet?
Talking with a friend about Nagano, I remembered to recommend a surprise hotel I had visited before.
I really like Nagano Prefecture in Japan. Nagano is a highland area in Japan, where the summer temperature is cooler than other places, and there are many good ski resorts in winter. I used to love going to Karuizawa, a place I could visit countless times without ever getting tired of it, and I spent almost every summer vacation in Karuizawa.
However, since moving to the central part of Japan, the travel time to get there has become too long, so I can't visit as often.
But I discovered another treasure in Nagano Prefecture, Tateshina.
There are many sanatoriums owned by major companies around Tateshina, and there are ski resorts in winter and a cool climate in summer, making it a great summer retreat.
The last time I went, I booked a newly renovated family suite at this hotel, which is very suitable for staying with children. My child was so happy upon entering the room.
The room's setup and attention to detail were even more perfect than Hoshino's, and there is also a playground for children in the hotel. When it's not crowded, it feels like having a private play area, and mothers can rest nearby.
The hotel's buffet breakfast is also very rich and tasty, and most importantly, the price is only half of Hoshino's.
During my stay, I encountered several families with little babies. Overall, it is a very cost-effective hot spring resort hotel that I would like to visit again.
