This hotel looks like it was designed for people just passing through (truckers, sales people etc) not really tourists but it was fine. Small rooms, nice breakfast helpful staff, priced right.

Highway hotel at the edge of town - almost an hour walk from train station. Very friendly and helpful staff though who helps us forward our luggage while we walked the Nakisendo Trail. We found a small Ramon restaurant around the corner where a delightful woman of at least 80 years prepared dinner for us for a most reasonable price. We spoke to her and she to us using Japanese to English and English to Japanese translator apps. We tried the interesting appetizer she brought us. They tasted good and upon asking our host what is was, the translator said “That’s a bee’s child”. Enjoy the larvae and the ramen. We did.

Property is very nice, clean and staff are very polite and friendly. The breakfast was amazing. Unfortunately, when we booked there wasn’t non-smoke room available, so we had to stay in a smoke room.

Overall, very good. If I had to have a say for some improvement, I would say the location is inconvenient: it is a bit far from the station. It would be nicer if you have a couching service, etc. But the location is wonderful when you come by car. It is near motor way.

The location is good. However, the blanket was old.

Chose this hotel for its location near nakasendo trail. It’s 2 mins walk to a bus stop that leads to Nakatsugawa Station to connect to Magome. Everything was quite good, Room size and dinner at hotel satisfactory.

Clean and efficient 'business' style hotel. A long way from train station though (¥1500 by taxi).

A basic hotel, adequate for a one night stop-over, more attention to dual language notices would make life easier for the non-Japanese traveler. 2020 is just around the corner, and Route-inn is a national chain.
