Sotetsu Inariyama hotels

"Nice place to stay and convenient for the station. Good Japanese breakfast. Could not book the restaurant unless you gave them THREE DAYS notice!! However, this was overcome by the free saki tasting ( 4 shots pp each evening) and coffee wth small cakes in the afternoon/early evening"

"You have to try their savery salad and the authentic pizza. Just a dilicious meal. The staff was always very kind with me. All great!"

"Very stellar value for money in a more interesting location (shopping, etc) than the many hotels directly adjacent the train station. My only issue was the thermostat seemed totally unresponsive to me adjusting the temperature downwards which helps to sleep at night. The front desk staff were extremely sweet. I will absolutely stay again! "

"Baths were strange, very deep but very short. Was different, but not necessarily bad. Good budget hotel for a couple nights stay. Would stay again 4/5"

"Let’s get real this hotel is not “wonderful” it’s a cheap downmarket motel style room. I’ve travelled around Japan for 5 weeks and this is the first time I would not wear their nightwear as it didn’t seem clean, slippers had been worn before and sanitized (ugh!). No English channels on tv and couldn’t access Netflix or others. No tea or coffee in room although did have kettle. Small room and very old and dated bathroom, didn’t enjoy it at all. Staff were friendly though and short walk from station."

"Hotel condition is terrible. I’ve stayed in old onsen hotels before that are way nicer - old doesn’t mean terrible condition, but this property was clearly neglected. Walls and carpets are destroyed everywhere, mosquitos / fruit flies inhabited the bathroom. I have tattoos so I must use shower, shower floods and did not drain properly, hot and cold interchange constantly, water pressure fails often. Why no private pools? Beds are old coil spring beds with destroyed coils, terrible sleep. Walls are paper thin, everything is heard outside the room. Rooms are excessively hot, hvac systems are not maintained, mold is present in ventilation everywhere. Black Mold is most noticeable in the lobby ventilation. Lobby offers a free snack / night cap before and after dinner, it’s a great service however the space is unimaginably too small for the guests using it and people are spread out into the all over the lobby. Snacks and drinks keep depleting faster than guests can enjoy. Children are everywhere, even during alcohol serving period. Breakfast and dinner periods must be reserved to stop overfilling, yet you still must wait in lines as dining is always over booked. Food served was nothing special, I think fewer items of higher quality would be better. Only 1 microwave for the whole hotel ??? Internet was terrible. Didn’t use onsen, cannot review. My family enjoyed the pools. I don’t recommend staying here unless for skiing. Feels like a budget ski hotel, over priced."

"The restaurant option closes at 8pm. Something the staff did not explain upon check in. The bar doesn’t open till 4pm in the afternoon. Again, something the staff did not explain. They don’t have any vending machines with food options. Seriously so no food on site after 8pm and nothing available to eat. They don’t have vending machines with Beer or Liquor options. There were no towels in the shower area. Yes they give you an Onsen towel and small towel in a tote bag but come on. Have proper towels for the room for when you shower. Lastly, their shuttle service doesn’t run until after the first bus from Hakuba t Nagano runs so we had to take Taxi’s into the town-1.5KM. "

"Clean room . Nice view"

"Amenity choices are wide. The frontdesk staff is super polite and efficient. The location and parking area is closed to main train station which is very convenient. The parking fee is ¥800 which is even lower than some smaller city. Good deal!"
