After staying here multiple times, I can say it is always friendly, clean and well maintained. Still, westerns have to realize this hotel caters to mostly Japanese clients, and the beds reflect this, being lower and firm.
What a delightful place! It was very clean, very rustic, and very reasonable for the amount paid!
The breakfast itself is worth staying more for, with the freshest vegetables and the most delicious breads and drinks.
The room was spacious and it felt nice and secluded despite being so near everything else.
Taxi service is available by calling the front and it’s a pleasant walk to and from the shopping areas.
A unique European vibe in the main public areas while the room we stayed in was more of a modern sensability while carrying through the subdued aesthetic. Very attractive and comfortable.
The room allocated was different from the pictures on Hotels.com.
When I enquired about this with the staff, I was told that there are multiple types of room under the same category and I should have indicated my preference while booking. This was not made known to me at anytime during the booking process at Hotels.com.
I like Longing House and this was my third visit to the same hotel, but I wanted a specific room which I booked as per the pics shown while booking. I was disappointed to see the room allocated to me.
Amazing place, amazing staff, amazing everything. Only downside was neighbors upstairs were treating their room like a bouncy castle, and since the walls are pretty thin, we’ll yeah. But again, everything else was perfect.
While the property could benefit from modern-day amenities and customer service, we had a nice little stay at this property. Good access to Karuizawa by car.
The good - atmosphere, access, private baths, parking, comfortable beds
The bad - no early check-in (not even by 5 min), bugs in the stairwells should be cleared by maintenance, the breakfast in the restaurant needs an upgrade, signage missing for private baths A & B.

Tudor style property. Nice and clean but beds need to be changed and generally hotel needs a sprucing up
Excellent stay in Karuizawa! The hotel provided nice service, clean room and delicious breakfast. We satisfied a lot and will choose Longinghouse definitely when I visit Karuizawa again!
