Guest House Kura - Hostel

Fantastic stay

10.0

The hotel is a located inside a converted house. Everything looks very traditional, complete with low ceilings, sliding doors, mat covered floors and futons. The dorm slept four, which I though was tight, but it seems to work well enough that I slept quite well both nights. My futon had two layers and although I like a firm mattress, I did think it was quite sore on my back the 1st night. Common areas include the kitchen, cafe and lounge. The sink, shower room and toilet were separate and I never had to wait to use any of those. Most importantly, the shower and toilet were Japanese standard of cleanliness. The staff ere are fantastic. After check-in, they have ready made advice and detailed for how to see the main attractions around Nagano. I had a car, so they offered great advice to see the Kaminari Falls, scenic Route 66 and onsens. The hotel is very social and the staff do everything to make the guest feel welcome and even join in with shared meals. Overall, I had a fantastic stay and I would recommend this hotel for anyone looking to stay in a traditional buildings with friendly host and staff.

車で行かれる方は、事前に駐車場の場所をスタッフに確認されることをお勧めします。宿の看板は歩いていれば見つけられますが、車からだと発見しづらいです。発見出来ても宿の前は道路なので、駐車困難です。宿はGoodです。洗濯機乾燥機自炊設備などが充実しています。
