Takasaki Washington Hotel Plaza

I have stayed here several times in the past, and this time I returned after a long while; it was still a Hotel with the same calm, pleasant atmosphere.

Right in front of Takasaki Station—an unbeatable location. I thought I could enter directly from the station passageway (2nd floor), but that wasn’t the case; you have to go down to the 1st floor and use the entrance. Since my luggage was heavy, that was a bit disappointing. However, I was impressed by the chained luggage storage system available before check-in. Breakfast was delicious, and I enjoyed the local Gunma specialties at what I think was a “Gunma Fair.” The pork dish was especially good. That said, the bathtub drain in my Room didn’t work very well.
