Extremely convenient location! It's super close to Nagano Station, the Nagano Electric Railway (city subway), city buses, and the bus stop for Togakushi Shrine. The room was clean, and while the breakfast selection wasn't huge, it was sufficient and included burgers. Self-service coffee, tea, and toiletries were all well-stocked. Definitely worth a stay!

Anonymous UserRight at Nagano Station! There's a connecting passage on the second floor of the hotel that leads directly to Nagano Station. The location is excellent!
The hotel has a luxurious feel, reminiscent of an economic boom.
The room was standard, quite spacious. The facilities weren't brand new, but they weren't uncomfortably old either. The room was generally clean and comfortable.
The hotel breakfast was decent, with a good variety of options.
If you plan to spend your days exploring the mountains and returning on the same day without staying overnight, this hotel is highly recommended!

Protego MaximaThe hotel's location was easy enough to find, about an 8-minute walk away. Unfortunately, by the time I arrived, afternoon tea was over, so I missed out on the complimentary cake they offer guests. However, their ice cream is free and unlimited, so I sat down and had three scoops before heading to my room. The room size was adequate; I had no problem opening a suitcase. Afterwards, I went to their public bath, but it was a bit small and lacked any unique features. The sleep quality was pretty good though.
The next morning, their breakfast was quite substantial, with cakes being rotated, and I had several pieces. Overall, I feel like I'd consider coming back.

Guest UserThe hotel has a pretty convenient central location and a nice view. The room interiors are clean, but the soundproofing isn't great. The breakfast selection is quite limited. I hope the hotel will make some upgrades to improve the guest experience.

A Japanese-style hotel with extreme temperatures. Although the luggage has to be carried up and down the steep and bright wooden stairs, the old antiques in the house make life afraid of breaking up, all guests share the bathroom bathroom and hot spring ♨️. But it is so warm, the space is reasonably used upstairs and downstairs, and the 20 or so rooms are scattered. Comfortable hot spring baths, soft cloth tatami mats and the quiet environment in the store make people relax. The hotel operator is an elderly couple over 80 years old, busy upstairs and downstairs every day, ushered in, the 81-year-old gentleman not only has a hard body but also a super memory, every time the guest goes out, he picks out the guest's shoes and puts them in front of the guest, never making mistakes. Grandma is also radiant and kind, and she will not forget every word the guests have said to her, carefully and meticulously. The two elders stood outside the door in slippers and bowed and waved goodbye to us until the bus traveled. Maybe it is because of the fact that this century-old store has been passed down. I hope everyone can feel their precious warmth and cherish it when they stay.

This place is ~5mins walk from Zenkoji temple. neighborhood is peaceful at night.
Shoes to be removed outside the accommodation. Rooms are on the 2nd floor so you'll have to carry your luggage up (there's no lift).
Room (with window) is huge. You'll have to head downstairs to use the shared toilet and shared onsen (no toilet inside the room).
We were only allowed 30mins of onsen time for 2 pax - couples weren't allowed to use the onsen concurrently so we had to go one after another (i'm not sure if the instructions got lost in translation..). Felt very rushed so i didnt really get to enjoy the onsen experience, but overall was nice and clean.
Interesting 6.30am tour around the area and within the temple itself, followed by a simple vegetarian breakfast (porridge with omakase-styled sides with miso soup) back at the accommodation. The morning tour lasted from 6.30am - 8.30am.
The accommodation provided a fleece blanket to each pax to bring to Zenkoji temple to keep us warm during the morning praying ceremony. We went on 30 Dec and it was SO COLD.
Overall interesting experience but accommodation price is pretty steep IMO.

Anonymous UserI had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is excellent and very convenient, with easy access to Nagano Station. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. The facilities were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. Everything was smooth from check-in to check-out. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Nagano, and I would definitely stay here again! ✨❤️🫶

Posted on Jan 17, 2025|10 Tatami Mats [Japanese Room] [Non-Smoking] [Mountain View]
Guest User1) Location: Get off at Zhongshe and walk about 3-400 meters. You can reach it in a straight line.
2) Hotel: Decorated in the 1980s-1990s, there is no heating in the corridor, but there is heating in the room, and the temperature is suitable. There is no bathing in the hotel. The hot spring is in a large covered tub. There is no heating in the shower room and toilet.
3) Meals: You can order them at the hotel. The boss’s skills are pretty good and delicious, but not very cheap.
[Five-star recommendation] Try to avoid bringing a trolley suitcase in winter. The road is too difficult to walk. It is uphill to get to the hotel. I arrived at night and fell a few times. It was too painful.

Anonymous UserThe room was very nice - sufficiently large and with all necessary amenities (even a small fridge). The room was clean and in good condition. The staff was very kind and stored my luggage for free, as I arrived early in the morning. The hotel is conveniently located, yet in a rather quiet place. It's a walking distance from both Nagano station and Zenkoji temple (approximately 20-25 minutes), however, do note that the nearest bus stop is about 900 meters away, so if you got a lot of luggage and do not intend to get a taxi, that may be a bit far. They also have coin operated washing machines and dryers, in case you need them. Overall, a great option for most travelers, especially in terms of value for money.

This place is really special. It has a magnificent view of Nagano and is within 10 minutes walk from the great Zenkoji temple and the modern museum of art, which are both great sights. But/and the hotel is like something that has only barely survived from the 1980s, almost like taking af time machine. Which is kind of great...but when the carpet doesn't seem to have been cleaned since then, there are torn holes in the paper walls, cigarette burn marks on the toilet cistern...it's kind of...let's just say the place has patina and lots of it. The room itself was not dirty, but everything was kind of old and battered and not really well-kept. In a way I liked it...but too expensive for the interior standard.
