Takasu Snow Park

We went to watch the Grand Prix in Suzuka - as all the buses to the track go from Shiroko this is not a brilliant location. There are not many local facilities within walking distance. The hotel is basically a sex hotel. Its possible to book the rooms by the hour and via a computer screen in reception so no-one has to see you. The rooms are sound proofed, and the decor is very bordello. On the positive side there is a karaoke machine in the room and a gambling machine if thats your thing. There are 7 TV channels - 1 is golf the other 6 are 'adult content'. The bed was rock hard, but as my husband pointed out we were probably the only people actually interested in sleeping in it (gross). There was a jacuzzi bath, and lots of amenities in the bathroom. Its quirky, a bit weird but fairly clean, and if I spoke Japanese I might have realised before i got there it was a brothel.

This hotel was amazing! I loved how close it is to Nagoya Station by train. Most important, the hotel staff was very kind and helpful. For instance there was this man at the front desk and even though he did not speak English, he made sure to help me get my suitcase delivered to my next destination. I also loved how the staff gave me a free cool neck towel for the hot weather and free socks! Oh, and the laundry facilities were amazing as well! I got to wash my clothes for 300 yen and dry them for 100 yen per 30 minutes. I am definitely staying at this hotel the next time I am in Nagoya! Before checking out, I made sure to bow to the staff many times because they were just amazing!

Location is really good. It takes a couple of minutes from Kanayama station.
