“A special and warm Wellies!”

10.0

28 Dec 2024

Wellies is a simple hotel but I am very surprised by the sizes of the rooms as most hotel rooms in Japan are tiny. The family suite managed to accommodate 2 adults and 4 girls and 7 luggages! Its location is very good too!! The owners and staff are exceptionally kind and helpful. I had a really bad backache after a day of skiing; they drove out and bought me pain plasters to ease my backache! When my sister lost her phone at the Prince outlet, they again drove her back to retrieve it!! It was difficult for us to get taxis due to the peak season and our group size; the very sweet hotel staff would send us to the ski resort or pick us up if they were free at that time. I would definitely recommend Wellies for anyone who travels to Karuizawa! Thank you for making our stay so special!

Well kept B&B. Beautiful decor. Has 8-10 car parks. The living and dining area well appointed - warm English look. The rooms were adequate. The bed was a queen size, would’ve loved a king. The toilet is good, in Japanese style. Breakfast was excellent. Service was attentive and friendly. Chris and all the staff were wonderful and warm.
