Hotels Near Chokoji Temple in Shiojiri

Very near to the metro station. About a 4 minute walk. There’s also a small shopping center with a supermarket about 5 minutes away. The onsen was always empty and was amazing.

After all, there is a sense of security of the route inn. There is a large bath and it is good to put it in the bath. Is it a design problem that there is only １ elevator? The room is also kept clean and has a good feeling. But I felt that the TV was a little old type. Although there is no problem with viewing. Breakfast is a buffet, but there are also a few points of side dishes, and you can do it from the morning. The side dish replenishment is also regularly performed and you can have a good feeling. Near the hotel, there are local supermarkets, convenience stores and gyudon chain stores in Nagano Prefecture. It is a little far from the station, but it is located on the main road side and close to the high-speed ＩＣ, so it is convenient to use in the car.

I booked the previous night for early check-in this time and booked a total of 11 nights. As with the last time I stayed, the staff were very kind. The coin laundry had a detergent that can be used for free. There were many kinds of free rental goods for hangers, mirrors and other fixtures used in the room, and we used them conveniently. The sushiro in front of me and the cow horn in the same premises were used, but the convenience store near 1 was closed and only that was inconvenient. However, I think the hotel itself is 100 points full.

２ I stayed for the first time in a year. The room is kept clean and I like it. I was a little worried that the man at the front desk at check-in was a little unfriendly, but there was no problem other than that. Perhaps it was a corona wreck, restricting admission to the large communal bath, only ３ lockers were available, but when I went there was no one and it was reserved. The hot water was a little hot, and I was able to warm my body in the cold waves. The air conditioner in the guest room was a little bad and it took a while to warm up. Breakfast was over ８, but there were some side dishes. I thought it was suitable for free breakfast and the low accommodation fee. By the way, the signboard light at the top of the building is off, so if you are using it for the first time, you need to be careful.

9/3に東京都清瀬からビーナスラインバイクツーリング後に行きました。 ロッカーが大きくてヘルメット、ジャケットも余裕で入ります。 19時に入館してまず温泉に入り、1Fのあずさで本日のお魚善をいただき 仮眠室で宿泊。有り得ないレベルのいびきをかいているおじさんがいて すごくうるさく、疲れていたので寝れましたが次行くときは耳栓要必須です。 フロントの受付の女性、風呂場、レストランの従業員の方々皆さん元気があり 対応も良いです。 お風呂の種類も多くシャンプーバイキングもあり食事も美味しくクチコミの評判通り素晴らしいと感じました。今度は中華洋食焼肉どれにしようか迷います。 ここを拠点にツーリングの幅が広がります。 次も絶対に行きます。

What an amazing hotel. The architecture, the attention to detail. I've stayed in nice hotels around the world and this would stand out anywhere. Certainly one of the most memorable and to find this in the Nakasendo is amazing. I remember coming across this hotel by chance off a YouTube video (channel: Abroad in Japan), and it was the push I needed to come to the Nakasendo, because I wanted to stay in a completely modern hotel. And so I built my trip around staying here. Making a non-refundable reservation at Byaku 8 months ago felt like taking a chance because there were only 3 reviews on Tripadvisor, and only a handful more on Google, and I didn't know my bearings around the area... and it was the right choice. Knowing what I know now, I'd absolutely do it all over again. A lot more reviews on Google now too. I guess no one uses this site anymore ;) Byaku is amazing. I know I already said that. They started off with 2 or 3 buildings. Now they have 16 rooms across 4 buildings. I stayed in Room 110, it was beautiful. Absolutely go for the dining-included option, because their restaurant, Kura, is where you're going to have the best meals in the Nakasendo. 1 night is not enough. 3 nights might be too much. 2 nights felt perfect. Things to do in Narai town... not much. Day hikes around using the hotel as a base. Our main highlight in Nakasendo was taking the train to Nagiso to get to Tsumago, and hiking Tsumago to Magome. Take note the local trains to/from Narai station are not very frequent so make a note of the timings!
