What a great hotel! Clean comfortable rooms in a lovely setting, an easy walk to shops and restaurants. We especially appreciated the welcoming, friendly staff who spoke excellent English. The bar was cozy and featured amazing cocktails - the gin & tonic with "forest" syrup was my favorite (so much so that I bought a bottle of the syrup to bring home). Would absolutely recommend this hotel, and hope to visit again someday!

주변의 자연과 조화롭고 조용하고 편안했습니다. 오랜 역사를 지닌 호텔 같고 잘 보존하고 있습니다. 마치 영화 속 세트장에 들어온 것 같은 기분 좋은 호텔입니다. 저녁식사로 호텔 내 일본식당 코스 요리는 정말 최고였습니다.

旧軽井沢滞在の醍醐味

昔の軽井沢の様子を感じることができるクラシックホテル。車を置いて、ゆっくりブラブラと別荘が見え隠れするカラマツ林を散策できる最高の立地です。 スタッフの皆さんの接客はとてももの柔らかで、親しみのある心地よいものでした。 古い建物を内部リフォームされたお部屋の設備は、それなりの経年劣化が感じられますが、それも含めて「歴史のある観光地に来た」体験ができます。 朝食は和食をいただきました。カウンター席が8席ほどのお店で、タイミングよくお料理が出て来ます。松花堂に盛られたおかずはどれも美味しく、目の前で焼いていただく魚の干物もとても香ばしい仕上がりでした。最後にコーヒーが出たら最高だったな。 窓を開けて、小鳥のさえずりを聞きながらまどろむと、しばし軽井沢の別荘生活はこんな感じかしら？と錯覚してしまいそうな素敵な時間を過ごしました。良いホテルです。
