APA Hotel Joetsu Myoko Ekimae
We booked three reservations. Their cancellation policy is great and it allows us flexibility in our trip. We travelled from Sapporo and were not sure to arrive on the first day of our reservation. So the one day reservation plus a three day was perfect. Great Japanese breakfast. Book larger rooms ...

The Hotel Yuzawa Paradiso
10人での宿泊でした。設備も綺麗で布団もたくさんありとても快適でした。コンビニやスーパー、温泉も徒歩10分ほどのところにあったので夜中の買い出しなども簡単でした。 卒業旅行で大人数で泊まる場合などにおすすめだと思います。
