Hotel Nagano Avenue

I stayed here during Golden Week for my fan activities.It’s a short walk from Nagano Station—an easy distance—and Zenkoji Temple was also fairly close.The exterior feels a bit dated, but the bathroom unit was as spotless as new, and the Room was spacious enough.There’s a comics area on the first floor where you can read freely.They also have a LOVOT named Spica to welcome guests, and I was thrilled to be able to interact with her anytime.The amenities and free drinks were well stocked, and the large public bath even had a high-end hair dryer—hospitality could be felt everywhere.It was my first time staying near Nagano Station, but I’d love to stay here again on my next trip.

Although the bath area isn’t very large, there is a public bath and a sauna, which helped me relax and recover from fatigue. The amenities were more than sufficient and very convenient. Above all, the breakfast buffet was excellent. The bite-sized oyaki were delightfully chewy and generously filled with nozawana greens—delicious. The roast pork, bamboo shoot soup with canned mackerel, and egg pudding were outstanding as well. There were plenty of fresh vegetables, a wide variety of side dishes, a decent selection of breads, and even local soba noodles, making it very satisfying.I would definitely like to stay here again when visiting Shinshu. Thank you very much.
