Best rooms
Request a room on the higher floors (4th or 5th) for a quieter stay, as these floors are likely to be further away from the street noise and the potential noise from the service entrance. Additionally, since the hotel has a lift, rooms on these floors may have a more consistent and less noisy access compared to the stairs.
Request rooms on floors 5 through 7 at the back of the building. These are high enough to avoid street-level noise but low enough for quick lift access, and face away from the main road for a quieter stay.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the service entrance, which is on the ground floor, may experience occasional noise from staff and delivery vehicles. If possible, avoid rooms on the first floor, as they may be closer to the service entrance and potentially more prone to noise.
Avoid rooms on floors 1 and 2, as they are closest to the street and can pick up traffic noise from Nagano's main roads. Also avoid any rooms directly above the lift shaft – usually those opposite or adjacent to the elevators on each floor.
