“This hotel is close to the JR station, which is convenient for people who did not drive. The drawback for this hotel is that it did not equip with elevator, so beware that you may have to walk to the 3rd or 4th floor with your luggage.”
“A really old-fashioned Japanese onsen experience like nothing else. We ate in the Japanese restaurant one night and French the other evening. The food was fantastic. Rooms were comfortable but old fashioned. I would highly recommend the room with a private onsen - we saw tanuke (Japanese raccoon dogs) approach whilst we were bathing which was a really special experience. We hiked to the ridge (5 hours return) through a beautiful forest.”
“La Terra Resort is a unique and beautiful crafted, peaceful boutique hotel that we had a delight to stay at during our outdoors exploration, and trek along parts of the Nakesando Trail.
La Terra Resort didn’t disappoint, nestled amongst a beautiful quiet valley setting, tucked under the edge of the forest canopy and surrounded by farmed land, land that served to us our daily meals, with fresh homegrown produce.
La Terra Resort’s owner Silva and his fantastic staff, each went out of their way……
“The B&B is excellent! This is the first time for us to live in the woods and travel in Tateshina. We have enjoyed it so much thanks to the owner and host Mr. Satoshi and his wife. Amazing architecture and interior in the Nomad style.
The room is clean and home like (just the tv monitor is a bit small, but you do not need TV when nature is the greatest entertainment here). We have a bathroom in our family room, but it worths to go to the public bath which is neat and clean.
Homemade breakfast……
"Far exceeded our expectations: it is the price of a regular hotel, but you have the hospitality of an onsen ryokan:
1. It has an outdoor onsen at the top floor. There’re people sharing with you, but it’s big enough for you to relax. It has sauna by the way.
2. After onsen, the free ice bars, the comics will definitely entertain you. The same location offers free yakult drink in the morning.
3. After 9pm, there is free ramen. Yes, free. And the taste is good!
4. Room is like new and clean. Service is good. I need extra blankets and pillows and they come in no time.
Parking is like 1100 yen per night nearby."
