Independent in Kusatsu

"Great location, close to bus terminal and town center. Staffs were very polite and provided great service. Public bath was clean and relaxing. Highly recommended this hotel and would love to go back to stay again. "

"Staffs very friendly and helpful, room are clean, breakfast was excellent, nearby shops just 2 minutes away."

"We enjoyed all of Onsen in this hotel. We experienced amazing lot of amazing food and staff. Thank you very much!!!"

"The JAL hotel is wonderfully located in Nagano city, only a few blocks walk to the train station. A full and large Breakfast is available everyday on the top floor for amazing views of the surrounding mountains. Rooms are quite spacious. There are many restaurants in the nearby area to choose from every night. Nagano is a wonderful city to visit in Japan as it’s much less crowded than places like Tokyo or Osaka. The direct bus to the snow monkeys from the station was a tremendous experience, as you get to see the snow monkeys in their own environment."

"Good breakfast, friendly staff, clean room"

"First, the pictures on expedia or even the hotels website did not do this place justice. This is a gorgeous hotel with lots to do and see. We were checked in by "Lucky" who spoke really great english. He spent about an hour with us checking us in, walking us to our rooms, showing us everything in our rooms and helping with luggage. Both the dinner and breakfast were buffet with lots of options. I think we were the only foreigners there but they did not treat us any different. The shuttle down to the town square is very convenient. We did not use the hot springs but we did use the open air bath in our room which was amazing. The beds were reasonable comfortable. Enjoyed the plethora of amenities and open space in the room. "

"Beautiful facility, the front desk speak good English, 16mins walk to the main town center, Yubatake. The food was excellent! Many different onsen to use at the facility, some are private. The bed was a little firm for me, otherwise everything was perfect!"

"The hotel is in need of an update, rooms are very dated (very nostalgic), in our room, we have a phone with a dialing wheel, which can only be found in very few places or museum. The hotel is located very close to the main Onsen street. Also a free shuttle to and from Bus station. The staff are up keeping the very standard Japanese serving standard, very courteous , friendly and helpful. The onsen is good but not spectacular. The food is also in the “good but not spectacular” category. The happy hour between 4-6pm is a plus to allow guest to unwind after a day of travel to the Onsen."

"Breakfast is really good, they are many choices, all taste great! In-room hot-spring bath is very relaxing with good views. It would be even better if the front desk staff could understand more English."
