We stayed here for 3 nights whilst being based in nagano enabling us to explore Nagano and the surrounding area. The hotel was modern compared to the other Japanese hotels that we had stayed at. The rooms were very big and comfortable. Reception staff were very helpful in giving us directions and advice. Its worth trying the bar at the... More

This is a large, very convenient business hotel situated right by Nagano JR station. Despite feeling a little bit old, my room was clean, had an adequate size, and shower was ok. Internet was free. Plenty of shops and bars around, and the temple is an easy 20 minute walk. I would stay here again in a next visit to... More

I stayed here for a few nights while I did some tourism in the area. Being adjacent to the Nagano Station, the location was perfect for this. There are plenty of restaurants around. The temple is a 25-30 minute walk. Convenience stores, banks, and other amenities are very closeby. The hotel itself was clean and well maintained. Excellent value. rooms... More

We stayed 2 nights in January 2013 and found this a very clean, well run hotel located in the heart of Nagano. The rooms were in excellent shape and quite roomy. Breakfast was included and was very good. We had our 2 small children with us and were quite satisfied with the accommodation. Given that this is a business oriented... More

A business hotel. Not much luxury. It's clean, efficient and the staff are pleasant. The biggest plus for this property is location. Located just outside the train station, everything is within walking distance. If you require a cab, there is a cab station right at your door step. Only peculiarity that I found was that iron and ironing board is... More

This hotel is located right next door to the Nagano train station, which makes it easy to get to and also right near cheap restaurants (by Japanese standards) and plenty of shopping. The rooms are very clean, and a double was extremely large for a Japanese room. It would be more convenient if there was wireless in the hotel, but... More

Convienently located just across the train station plaza, the Metropolitan is a great base for a short visit to Nagano. I must say that my view is influenced by a fabulous rate as suggested by a previous reviewer from the Hotel's own website...much less than even the best hotel search engines. My "standard single" was very large by Japanese standards... More

We had just arrived for a ski vacation in Shiga Kogen. After getting off of the bullet train late at night with skis and luggage in tow, this hotel was just across the parking lot from the train station. The hotel was perfectly adequate for our needs (easy in and out, no smoking rooms, english speaking receptionists, 24 hour desk... More

This hotel is literally 1 min from the Nagano train station and there is a sign from the station exit that reads "Metropolitan Nagano Hotel" - impossible to get lost finding it, even with jetlag! We booked online from their official website, selecting the "Web reservation happy day" deal which is for room only; and found the prices very reasonable... More
