  Great B&B with fantastic service

  The owner is a wonderful elderly couple: he an opera lover who plays the guitar, and she a (retirred) soprano. They run the hotel with their son and daughter-in-law, and they do it with music and love. The rooms are named after operas (we stayed in Tosca) and the owner has thousands of opera CDs and hundreds of DVD that you can borrow to the DVD in your room. The hotel is located in a quite little forest around 3 km from Kuruizawa we had a car, so it was perfect for us. Otherwise, the owner will transport you to and from the train station. They will also serve you a wonderful 5-course dinner, since there are no restaurants close by. They also had an outdoor heated spa that you can submerge yourself in. Perfiect in the morning. Karuizawa used to be where John Lennon and Yoko Ono escaped public attention in the 1970s and I can understand why. A beautiful little old part of town (Ginza) and some more waterfalls and parks. Today there is also a huge upscale shopping mall, with hundreds of outlets. Well worth a stop, and Hotel Piccolo Opera is recommended if you dont mind staying a bit out of town.

  Stay in a real-life anime scene

  Thank you for a wonderful stay at this quaint family-run inn. The decor was carefully curated and reminiscent of a real-life Studio Ghibli movie. The hosts were so friendly and welcoming. Its a little difficult to find but the location is right next to a forest and we got to see squirrels and many beautiful birds from our window.
