10/10 Excellent

"Great place to spend the night n Nagano. Close to the train station. Nice bathing facilities."

Hotel JAL City Nagano

10/10 Excellent

"I stayed at the JAL for 8 nights and was happy with the service. The location is great as it is a short walk to Zenkoji Temple, the Prefectural Museum and also to Nagano JR Station. Nagano was a fascinating city to visit and the JAL was situated in a good location for finding amenities such as shopping and food. I love to walk and I really enjoyed exploring the area around the hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Although my room was rather crowded with 3 beds, it was kept clean and well stocked. My only complaint was that the breakfast for a Westerner was very limited and got predictable very quickly. The food was very good, presented well and tasted fine but after 8 breakfasts eating the same things I was ready for a change."

Chisun Grand Nagano

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and a nice big room as we both had a big suitcase to contend with. Easy check in and the staff were very helpful. The laundry facilities were good as we managed to get a load of washing done which was helpful as we are on a 4 week trip."
