HOTEL METROPOLITAN　NAGANO

Hotel Metropolitan Nagano is a highly popular hotel thanks to its extremely convenient location right next to the Zenkoji Exit of Nagano Station. Nagano Station has seen major development, including a large renovation in 2015 and the extension of the Hokuriku Shinkansen to Kanazawa. Among many hotels, Hotel Metropolitan Nagano tends to be priced a bit higher—but it is also rated highly for delivering service that feels worth the cost. One key point is dining: beyond a standard buffet, the hotel also houses Japanese cuisine, teppanyaki, and sushi restaurants. On the top floor, there is a bar with a night view of Nagano City, and its beautiful scenery along with a wide selection of about 200 cocktails makes it especially popular with couples. The hotel is also well known as a wedding venue, offering many plans tailored to guests—from a beautiful chapel to venues for after-parties. Wedding fairs are also held periodically, making it recommended not only for stays but also for couples considering marriage and their families.
