The breakfast was quite acceptable. It was included with the room charge. The breakfast room was a little small, but this kept the buffet from being too big.

While Nagano is best known outside Japan as a Winter...
While Nagano is best known outside Japan as a Winter Olympics host city and a favourite place for people to ski in Winter, it is also the site of the Zenkō-ji Temple.
As one of the most important Buddhist sites in Japan it is extensive and beautifully landscaped. Despite the large number of visitors we felt calmed each of the times we walked through the grounds. You can also purchase a ticket (¥1,200) to climb the Niōmon Gate, visit the main Hondo and walk through the dark tunnel, turn the giant storehouse that contains a complete set of sutras, and see the museum in the war memorial pagoda at the rear of the complex.
Nagano itself is a nice prefectural capital surrounded by forested mountains. In the good late autumn weather it was beautiful and we enjoyed wandering the small streets finding little restaurants and stores, and looking at the interesting mix of old and very new architecture.
We didn't visit any of the popular museums and galleries as after almost 4 weeks in Japan we were "museumed out", but did stumble across the Nishinomon-Yoshinoya Sake Brewery which is well worth a visit, and had lunch at Unaginoyado Sumiyoshi - a well-regarded unagi restaurant.
There are also lots of scenic and nature locations to visit in the surrounding hills, but you need more time than we had to enjoy them.
Overall, Nagano was a bit of a surprise package and being just 1½ hours from Tokyo by Shinkansen I would recommend a visit as part of any Japan itinerary.

Handly location to use as a base for surrounding areas like Matsumoto and Obuse. Just be aware the train to Obuse is not on the JR or the IC/Suica/Pasmo and you'd need cash to buy the ticket.

Many different activities available in the area - cultural, historical, and natural. The Togakushi Shrine Pilgrimage and Kamikochi National Park were my favorites. Excellent souvenir shopping on the street in front of Zenkoji Temple. The city is very walkable. The train from Tokyo provides easy access. During hot summer months it is cooler in Nagano.
Absolutely FANTASTIC Hotel!
Very friendly staff, great facilities, great breakfast, accessible parking, very advanced electronics all over, located in the heart of the city and conestted to (Shinkansen) Nagano train Station, walkable distance to everything you need, Zenko-ji Talpme is just 30 min walking distance. The hotel was a great focal point for our ski trip - 45 min. by car to Hakuba and 45 min. to Shiga Kogen. Make reservations! Be on time! Great reliable experience!
Location was excellent, it is connected to the train station via a lift to B2 which is the area for the snow monkey express. And just across the Nagano JR station with Midori and other food choices.
Check in staff were very welcoming and professional
Breakfast was good, the selection and taste was great. Staff were very attentive making sure that the hygiene standard was tip top.
And the view :)
Stayed for 3 nights and wouldn’t hesitate to stay longer if needed.
We had a fantastic time at 1166 Backpacker.
- Location: It is perfectly located to explore the city (the famous Zenkoji Temple is a 5-minute walk away) and is also a 20-minute walk from the train station.
- This is a traditional Japanese house with futon beds, super comfy, we had our best sleep in Japan there.
- The team was super kind and friendly, and we enjoyed chatting with them.
Merci Etsuko, c'était un plaisir de parler avec toi :)
This is the best imaginable place to stay in Nagano. Perfectly located between the train station and the famous Zenkoji. Japanese style rooms in a authentic hotel, with a common hot bath. Travelling as a family with a 1-year-old, we were very happy that the charming owners gave us one of the baths for family use. Next time we will eat dinner there, too!
Good sized room by Japanese standards, comfortable bed and great location right at the station. There are lots of delicious quick food options and a bar in the food court below the hotel. The Zenkoji Temple is within walking distance or a short bus ride away. Loved being able to access the station so easily to catch the Shinkansen Bullet train
Very central location, literally a couple of minutes on foot from train station, buses to the main two attractions (Zenkoji and Togakushi) departing from a bus stop right next to the hotel. The hotel itself was modern and clean, rooms were comfortable, not very big but also not the smallest by Japanese hotels standards. Good breakfast.
The family who ran the hotel made it. They were so sweet and couldn't do enough.
The hotel is very central, clean and perfect to walk to local sights or the station.
We choose the option to have breakfast, worth a try experiencing traditional Japanese food.
The onsen is amazing, make sure you use the cold water tap at its warm!
Superb hotel ! Value for the money. Location is near to Nagano Station hence we walked to the hotel. The open air onsen at roof top is really cool. You will surely like it. Also, after 9:30 pm they provide free ramen noodles with limited portion if you missed to have dinner. Overall experience was really nice !
walking distance to nagano station (take zenkoji exit). room was just enough for 2 people with large luggages. we love the pajamas rented to us freely. we can also kept our luggages at the hotel after checked out. plenty of restaurants nearby, we managed to have dinner in one of them at 22.00.
I needed a place to sleep before heading into the mountains. It's close to the train station, close to several bus lines and nearby lots of restaurants. Nothing fancy but exceeded my expectations for a budget hotel. Service was super attentive, the room was comfortable and very clean.
This hotel is very close to the station. The staff were very helpful with looking after suitcases before check-in/after checking out and the cleaning service (I only asked for fresh towels) was prompt. The breakfast buffet was a strong selection of western and japanese fare.
Hotel room was huge compared to other rooms in japan. We were put on the 14th floor with beautiful views of the city and mountains. Staff was wonderful, and the restaurant had above average wood fire pizza. About a 15 minute walk to nagano station.
The hotel is super clean. The staff clearly take pride in their work. The location is excellent. It is right in front of Nagano Station, so 2 minutes to the tracks. The room is small but all the amenities are there.
Ideal layover Hotel for Nagano. Has restaurants and convenient stores around and is a short walk away from Nagano station. They also include a token for vending machines, which means free tea/water/juice.
Hotel staffs are polite and helpful although they do not speak English well. The hotel is close to Nagano station. It is about 15 mins nice walk to Zenkoji Shrine. It is not far from Hokuto Culture hall.
The location is great. Very near to Nagano train station. The hotel is well maintained, the room are quiet and clean. Staffs are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is Japanese style, wholesome.
Very close to the station
A lot of space compared to other places in Japan
Second time staying with Compass, if I come to Nagano again I will be picking this place again.
