Hotel Boston Plaza Kusatsu

Property is close direct across from train station. Finding the reception took me a while. Hotel a bit outdated but very clean.

This place was cool, and had an emphasis on Americanism, with President roooms including a JFK room. It was really nice to experience! We noticed lot of school kids stayed in the hotel, probably for the American historical context, or that it was just right by one of the main train stops. Either way, the people in this area are all so nice and friendly, way more thab the big city of Tokyo. Genuinely enjoyed our stay around this place, and there's a ton of food options nearby, including a giant mall. The room we stayed in was pretty big, and the hotel staff are very helpful! Definitely reccomend staying here to explore the area, and to go visit Otsu and Koka Ninja House which isnt far from this hotel.

This is a mixed of smoking and non-smoking hotel. At first, our non-smoking room smelled very strong of cigarettes smoke when the A/AC was turned on, but the receptionist was very nice and moved us to a different room that smelled better. I think the smoke was just inside the air condition system, so if you’re sensitive make sure to select the non-smoking room, although didn’t guarantee that it will be free of smell. Other than the smell everything is great. Right in front of the train station, great amenities. They give you bath salt, PJs, fridge, pants ironing board, there’s Lawson in the building. Theres is also a shopping mall and large supermarket nearby.

Breakfast buffet had allergy signs making it easy to stay away from certain foods. Thank you

location

Amazing meals. Dinner was outstanding, and reasonably priced! Breakfast buffet was excellent with so many choices. Will surely return to the BOSTON Plaza Hotel!

Very convenient to the train station. The decor is really interesting, especially the hallway in the South Wing. The breakfast buffet is good quality too.

Good location which is next to the train station and also within walking distance to the major shopping malls

Lovely old stately building. It takes me back to another era. Charming and well maintained. The staff are very helpful and extremely courteous.

Nice clean hotel, located in the center of Kusatsu and very near the train station

ありがとうございます。

Everything was great, the breakfast buffé is recommended with it's varied selection of food, lots of different Japanese cuisine available, with an excellent, cosy morning mood together with it.

Great location. Lots of food and shopping. Slightly larger than average rooms

The Boston Hotel is literally steps just outside the JR Kusatsu train station. If traveling by train, the convenience really can't be beat. The room was very clean and well maintained, though small as with many Japanese rooms. Only 2 people can fit so we had 2 rooms for a family of 4 and it worked great. There were slippers and a sleeping gown to freely use and the selection of toiletries was surprisingly robust. The service was exceptional as we had no trouble speaking with the lobby staff and even the cleaning crew were all smiling and so helpful. There is a Lawson's convenience store attached to the hotel so late night munchies, toiletries, or a run to the ATM are without worry. The bottom floor has a mid-size restaurant. In the morning it offers a full buffet breakfast with a huge array of foods like scrambled eggs and sausages, misi soup and fish, steamed vegetables, cereals and breads. I highly recommend the breakfast for it's selection and quality, especially if it is included. This is a wonderful hotel just a 20 minute train ride from Kyoto station that won't be nearly as crowded, provides excellent service, and is a great jumping point for many of your adventures in Japan. The trains are normally not as packed as other lines around Kyoto.

next to train station and can be noisy though. but easy accessible to eateries

Nice access location

Very conveniently located across from the Train Station, this hotel is a great choice when visiting Kusatsu! Rooms are comfortable, clean, with an excellent shower. Breakfasts are varied and tasty. All the staff are pleasant and helpful. I heartily recommend Hotel Boston Place Kusatsu!

Fantastic breakfast with many local Shiga farm to table products. Large rooms with attention to detail. This is not a normal Japanese hotel but a few steps above!

I've stayed here several times and it's definitely Japanese but very comfortable for a westerner. The rooms are big by Asian standards and the basics, hot water and drains, are good. The breakfast buffet is nice with Japanese and Western choices, so don't hesitate to choose a rate including breakfast. The hotel is 2-minutes walk from Kusatsu station, and Kusatu is 20 minutes from Kyoto station, and has some direct trains to Kansai airport.

The room is big and clean. Great service and friendly staff. I would stay here again when I come to Kusatsu again.
