Hotels With Pools in Nagano Prefecture, Japan

Everything about our stay was perfect. The place was very clean and well maintained, and the location was ideal for visiting the Snow Monkey Park. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, always ready to help. The meals were delicious and thoughtfully prepared, and the onsen was relaxing and beautifully kept. It was a wonderful experience overall, and I would love to come back again.

Everything about this hotel was perfect, except for its location being a bit far from the ski lifts. I mainly chose this hotel because it's one of the few in Nozawa Onsen with private bathrooms. The dinners were incredibly generous every night. The room temperature was just right, heated by AC but never cold. The staff were very welcoming and helpful.

The best hotel we’ve ever stayed at. 🤍 The room came with the most incredible view and no matter how many times we looked out the window, we never got tired of it. I probably took hundreds of photos! 📸 The service was beyond amazing too. My friend accidentally left her bag on the Shinkansen, and the hotel staff went above and beyond to help us contact JR and the station due to the language barrier. We honestly can’t thank them enough. 🥹 They also offered complimentary drinks and afternoon tea with an incredible view, and having a private onsen made the whole experience even more special. Every little detail made this stay unforgettable. Definitely one we’ll always remember. ✨and wishing to comeback soon

Le Grand Karuizawa Hotel & Resort is a perfect place for great views, relaxation and luxury retreat. We stayed on the top of the resort where the view of the Asama Mountain is breathtaking. The room is spacious but cozy. The dinners were very good. We stayed two nights (half board), the two fine-dining French dinners with local ingredients we had were superb. The courses served at the dinners didn’t have any repeat. I will definitely come here again for other seasons.

We stayed for 3 nights with meals included. The buffet offered slight variations each day, especially with the tempura and sushi ingredients, soups, and cake selections. Everything was delicious, and we never got bored. Since we opted out of daily cleaning for our multi-night stay, we received a 1000 yen voucher for the hotel shop each time, which was a nice bonus during the busy season. The hotel layout was compact and well-organized. It was easy to get around from the ski locker to the public bath, restaurant, and front desk, making for a very comfortable stay. The only minor issue was the towels. We only received exactly enough bath and face towels for the number of guests. If you use one as a hand towel, you quickly run out, especially on a multi-night stay. I wish they had provided a few extra.

1. **Extremely Family-Friendly (Main Highlight)** * **Great Kids' Perks**: The hotel follows the Holiday Inn's signature 'Kids Stay & Eat Free' policy (children under 12 stay and eat for free/at a discount). * **Abundant Family Activities**: The hotel offers an exclusive kids' check-in interactive task (where children receive a stamp card for completion), a Kids' Room, an indoor heated pool, and mini-putt golf. It's perfect for 7-9-year-old boys to burn off some energy. 2. **Mount Asama Forest Scenery and Hot Spring Experience** * The hotel is surrounded by the forests of Mount Asama and a golf course. Summer temperatures are exceptionally low (around 20°C/68°F), offering an excellent escape from the heat and a chance to breathe in fresh air. Some guests have even spotted deer by the golf course. * **Large Public Bath and Open-Air Hot Springs**: The outdoor open-air bath offers expansive views, allowing you to soak while gazing at Mount Asama and the vast forest. It also includes a sauna and a bubble massage pool.

I went for sauna purposes, but it was the past 1 in the sauna that I can share! However, it is difficult to enjoy the sauna slowly because there are many children in the facility

There is a bus transfer from the JR Keke Station to the hotel, and the traffic is quite convenient. The mountain is relatively quiet, the hotel staff is English, the service is in place and warm. There are lakes, woods, mountains, hot springs and snow fields in the resort, where you can enjoy a few days of peace of mind. On the second day of our stay, we went to the far ski resort. The hotel staff helped to book a taxi. We also asked if we need a taxi to return. After confirmation, I also helped the driver to confirm the return time, which greatly helped us communicate with the driver. (There are more local tourists in Japan here, and the English level of restaurants and drivers is limited)

I was able to stay in a single on a business trip. Acacia put honey in the room as a present. Impressed! There was a hot spring and a sauna, which was the best.

There are beautiful lake views and large grass near the hotel, but the facilities are old. Although you have to take a shuttle bus to the station
