Hotel Dengan Breakfast di Nagano Prefecture, Japan

My stay at Hotel Courtland was absolutely fantastic! First of all, the location is unbeatable—it's just a short walk from Nagano Station, making it incredibly convenient for sightseeing and catching the Shinkansen. There are also plenty of great restaurants and convenience stores nearby. The room was spotlessly clean and very well-maintained. While it follows the cozy style typical of Japanese business hotels, it was thoughtfully designed with everything I needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was exceptionally comfortable! Above all, the staff were wonderful—so polite, welcoming, and eager to help. It’s truly a hidden gem in Nagano that offers great value for money. Highly recommended! การเข้าพักที่ Hotel Courtland เป็นประสบการณ์ที่ยอดเยี่ยมมากครับ! อย่างแรกเลยคือ ทำเลที่ตั้งดีเยี่ยม อยู่ใกล้สถานีรถไฟ Nagano มาก ทำให้การเดินทางไปเที่ยวที่ต่างๆ สะดวกสุดๆ รอบๆ โรงแรมยังมีร้านอาหารและร้านสะดวกซื้อครบครัน ในส่วนของห้องพัก แม้จะเป็นสไตล์ญี่ปุ่นที่เน้นความกะทัดรัด แต่สะอาดสะอ้านและจัดวางสิ่งอำนวยความสะดวกไว้ได้ดีมาก เตียงนอนนุ่มสบายช่วยให้หายเหนื่อยจากการเดินทางได้ดีจริงๆ ที่สำคัญที่สุดคือ พนักงานสุภาพและช่วยเหลือดีมาก ยิ้มแย้มแจ่มใสและพยายามสื่อสารอย่างเต็มที่ เป็นโรงแรมที่คุ้มค่าคุ้มราคามากสำหรับการมาเยือนนากาโน่ครับ

This is a perfect spot in Nagano if you want to take a break before heading to other parts such as Hakuba for skiing . It is literally right at the station and connected via MIDORI where you can buy groceries and with lots of restaurants. Due to fight delay, we arrived late at night at around 10pm. MIDORI shops were all closed but ht path to hotel still open and we can still find plenty of cafes nearby. It has reserved Alpico bus to Hakuba right at hotel or you may go to the regular bus stop at bus station 26 for higher frequency of bus service. Will definitely stay here again if we need to stop over at Nagano. Though the hotel is not new, it’s spacious and clean enough for a comfortable stay .

The rooms (just regular guests rooms, not even the premium ones) were very spacious and comfortable given their price. The warm atmosphere was very healing and I loved being able to bathe in hot springs after a tiring day of snowsports! Although the hotel seemed quiet from the outside, we saw many guests staying inside and it was a pretty lively atmosphere, which is something I like. The landscape is quite lovely too. Although there was little natural snow, the slopes were still fine to ski on due to their artificial snow machines. The slopes were very beginner-friendly as well, however, as they get more frequently used through the day, they tend to become really icy and difficult to ski on. Overall, I had a great time! It was a shame that there wasn’t snowy weather to match.

1. Parking - Parking is behind the hotel, and they will check your booking and give you a parking chit (駐車券). The person manning the parking situation doesn't inform you beforehand that you have to bring this chit to the lobby for check in. We left it on the dashboard as we thought it indicates that we can park here. If you're travelling with alot of baggage, it can get pretty inconvenient as you will have to walk one round around the hotel for accessible routes to avoid a flight of stairs. 2. Check in procedure - 三條-san was helping us with the check in. Did not feel welcomed, and everything just felt routined and mechanical. This was still acceptable. When it came to asking for the parking chit, we said we left it on the dashboard and whether we could return later to show it to him. We were really not informed that we had to bring it to the reception. 三條-san's face immediately showed a face of disgust and annoyance, and he mildly rolled his eyes too in displeasure. My partner immediately ran to the car to get it for him there and then. This was pretty shocking to me as I did not expect Japanese hospitality to be this rude and nobody mentioned to us to bring the chit to the reception. He could have been more patient and handled it more professionally. We were also unaware at the time of making a hotel reservation that you have to book a breakfast slot at the time of your check in. We checked in at around 7pm, and we were only left with the 6am or 6:30am breakfast slot. This felt very restrictive as everyone has different waking habits or plans for the next day (Felt like we were back in school). You were also restricted to 50 minutes duration at breakfast. Having to change my plan entirely just because of this restriction felt ridiculous. Would I get a refund of the cost of the breakfast if I can't make it for any of the breakfast timings? If this was made known at the point of the hotel reservation, I might have reconsidered as the slots for the more human timings seem to get snatched up really quickly. All in all, the check in progress was pleasant and 三條-san was a huge reason for it. I will recommend future visitors to avoid him if you see that there are other staff manning the reception desk. 3. The J floor rooms were lovely. Clean, decent size, filled with amenities and complimentary drinks even those in the fridge. The hotel room itself was lovely compared to what happened in the lobby. 4. Breakfast - Despite being left with the ridiculously early breakfast slots, breakfast spread was great. Wide range of food and if you get a window seat, you have a good view of the city.

The hotel is located about 10-15mins walk from Nagano station and is easily navigated using google map. Hotel provide luggage forwarding service and luggage deposit after checkout. Amenities are not provided in the room but upon check in, hotel staff will inform you to pick what you need from the area at the hotel lobby. It can also be picked up at anytime of the day. The lobby also have a coffee machine serving hot chocolate and coffee throughout the day. Pastry are provided at certain hour as well. One time free Sake tasting per guest where you need to pick up special coin from the hotel staff. Rooms are clean and quite spacious.

The location is very convenient in walk distance and surrounding by many restaurants. The hotel clean and staffs are very friendly and helpful. Love this hotel.

The hotel is located close to Nagano Station, only a 5-minute walk away. The room is not very large, but not too small either. The onsen is a bit small and can get crowded. I loved the staff’s service—they were very kind—and I especially enjoyed the ice cream provided during onsen hours and free soba at night. Breakfast was very good. I liked the beef suki soup and the Nagano pork.

元々は長野を代表するクラシカルホテル。 建て替わってしまいましたが、スタッフの品格とおもてなしはさすがです。 土日は結婚式の会場利用があるので、華やかな装いの方々とすれ違います。 最も安い部屋(旧館のシングルを2人で利用)に泊まったたので、部屋の設備は安いビジネスホテルみたいなもので、バスルームがバストイレ一体でした。 安いのでこんなものかなと。 ビジネスホテルと同じ値段で気持ちの良いサービスを受けられたので、気分が良く、得した気持ちになれました。 ホテル内のレストランがなかなかレベルが高く、クラシックホテルの逸品を手頃なお値段で食せますのでレストラン利用もオススメします。

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Kokusai 21. The room was spacious, clean, and very comfortable — I slept so well during my time there. The overall atmosphere was calm and relaxing, making it a great place to unwind after a long day. I’ll definitely come back the next time I’m in Nagano. Highly recommended!

Lokasinya betul-betul di hadapan Stesen Nagano, jadi ia sangat mudah untuk digunakan. Saya sampai awal, jadi apabila saya pergi ke meja depan untuk meninggalkan bagasi saya, ada bilik yang sedia untuk saya dan saya dibenarkan untuk mendaftar masuk terus!! Bilik itu juga dibersihkan dengan baik dan sangat bersih. Di atas semua, menu sarapan pagi adalah sangat luas sehingga saya fikir saya menginap di rumah penginapan biasa!! Apabila saya pergi ke Nagano, saya ingin menginap di hotel ini lagi.
