The Hiramatsu Karuizawa Miyota

Although the hotel name says Karuizawa, it is actually in Miyota-cho next door (locals also complained to me because no one came if it was only Miyota). It costs 6,000-7,000 yen to take a taxi from Karuizawa to the hotel. The shuttle taxi arranged by the hotel can only pick up at Miyota Station (take the Shinano Railway, three stations away from Karuizawa). I told the hotel that I wanted to celebrate my mother's birthday, so I prepared greeting cards, desserts and bear towels, but compared with the previous hotels that were not so expensive, it seemed a bit cheap. There is no extra charge for soft drinks and alcoholic drinks in the room refrigerator. They are provided according to the number of people. We have four people staying (four bottles of local apple juice, four bottles of local peach juice, four cans of Suntory oolong tea, four bottles of Perrier, four cans of Karuizawa beer, four cans of Yebisu beer and two bottles of local sparkling wine). The content provided is also a bit average compared to other Japanese hotels of the same price that provide Moët & Chandon champagne. The dinner content is sufficient and delicious, and the chef will come to meet at the end. The marshmallow roasting activity is from 17:00 to 19:00. Check out at 11:00 the next morning, and the hotel also provides free delivery service to Miyota Station.

The scenery and facilities are average, but the indoor hot spring is a plus. It was a surprise to see snow in March. You must choose French for dinner, the food is very good. I think the overall cost performance is not as good as Fufu.

The room is very comfortable and clean. When you come, you can take the subway from Karuizawa to Miyota Station. The hotel has a shuttle service (free). When you leave, the hotel's free shuttle only goes to Miyota Station. If you go directly to Karuizawa Station, You need to ask the hotel to book a taxi in advance, which costs about 6,700 yen and takes 20 minutes.

Hiramatsu itself is a luxury chain, and Hiramatsu in Karuizawa is the benchmark among them. The hotel is a bit far from the station. It takes 22 minutes to get off the Shinkansen and take a taxi, which costs about 6,000 yen. The hotel rooms are large in size and luxuriously decorated, with perfect facilities and fast internet. The toiletries selected are from the same series of products as the hotel, which is very high-end. The hot spring is a major feature of the hotel and must be experienced. The hotel's catering maintains a very high standard.
