Best rooms
For the most comfortable stay at Alpages, request a room on a higher floor (above 5th floor) facing the inner courtyard to avoid street noise from Niigata's busy roads. As a 3-star hotel, Alpages likely has concrete floors, which can be noisy, so rooms on the top floors will have less foot traffic and elevator noise.
Request upper floors, above the 7th floor, to reduce street noise; rooms on the east side away from the main road are quieter.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid rooms near the service entrance or lift on lower floors (1st-3rd floor) as these areas tend to have more foot traffic and noise from staff and guests.
Avoid rooms on floors 1–3, especially those facing the main street (west side) or near the lift lobby; these pick up traffic and lobby chatter.
