快適に滞在できました

駅から少し離れていますが、静かな環境です。 部屋は広く快適でした。Wifi環境も良好でした。 朝食はバイキングでなくセットメニューですが必要十分な量でした。 駅近隣のチェーンホテルより高額ですが、部屋の広さを考えれば納得できます。

スタッフの皆さんが親切でした。禁煙希望から喫煙室になってしまったのですが、空気清浄機や清浄スプレーを用意してくれました。匂いはどうしても取れなかったですが、対応が良かったので、まずまず良かったです。部屋は古いなりに清潔感ありでよかったです。朝食も美味しく、ボリュームもありました。働きに来てる方が利用してるようで、近い部屋から大きな声や音も聞こえずよかったです。枕が高いのがわたしには合わなくて残念。2種類くらいあるといいかな。あと、美顔器の貸し出しはとても良かったです。感染対策も出来ていました。とにかく落ち着いて過ごせるホテルでした。駐車場も敷地内無料はいいですね。機会があればまた利用したいです。

全般には、ビジネスでの滞在は問題ありませんでした。毎日清掃もいいし、お風呂もまあまあ広くてよかったです。ただ、室内にある少し古めの湯沸かしポットにいっぱいの水を入れてくれているサービスは要らない、水道水かミネラルウォーターなのか分からず使いたくない。

朝食をせめてバイキングにしたら良いのに。

ちょっと周辺が寂しい。 ホテルと企業があるビルがくっついていて 場所がわかりにくかった割には 駅前周辺の他ホテルよりも 割高でした。朝食が予約制の定食しか対応していないところが、調理人がいないことをアピールするのと同じやなあと感じました。

Good sized room for 3 people, though we didn't realise one bed would be smaller than the others. It was not a problem though. Bathroom needed a little extra cleaning and the shower curtain probably needed replacing if you looked close enough. Reception kindly let us leave our bags after checkout so we could get lunch before leaving Kusatsu.
