Top Karuizawa Hotel Reviews

HOSHINOYA Karuizawa

8/10 Good

"The resort had a modern and stylish atmosphere, with well-designed facilities and a contemporary feel. However, I noticed that a large proportion of the guests were Korean and Chinese tourists, with relatively fewer visitors from other countries. As a result, the resort felt more like a popular international tourist destination than a quiet, traditional Japanese retreat."
