[2025 Karuizawa Stay] Travel Guide for Kyukaruizawa Kikyo, Curio Collection by Hilton (Updated Apr)

Karuizawa Afternoon Tea✨ A long-awaited afternoon tea on the first floor of the Hilton, within walking distance of the old Karuizawa Ginza. First, choose your tea. They bring you a tea box and let you choose your favorite tea while checking the aroma of the tea leaves. You can have as many refills as you like, and of course you can change your order. For savory dishes, start with Sadaharu Aoki's croissant sandwich. The plump shrimp is delicious! The eggplant mousse is delicate and exquisite. The scones have a crunchy texture. The sweets are not too sweet. They were all so cute that it was a shame to eat them✨ The price was 4,786 yen including tax and service charge. I was very satisfied. #afternoontea #luxuryhotel #hilton #karuizawa #karuizawatrip #naganotrip

The vegetables are fresh. I recommend the tomato juice. It's a tomato juice that's full of the deliciousness of tomatoes that you've never tasted before. The salad and original dressing are also excellent! Choose one dish from the menu, choose eggs Benedict, peach pancakes, or a Japanese set. Each dish is carefully seasoned and very satisfying. I also recommend the original yogurt. It's creamy and has a mellow sourness. The slight sweetness will make you feel happy. You can spend a relaxing time while looking out at the beautiful green courtyard. #Hilton #Breakfast #NaganoTrip #LuxuryHotel #BreakfastBuffet

This is the only Curio Collection by Hilton hotel in Japan! Operated by the Tokyu Group, this hotel opened in 2018 under a franchise agreement with Hilton! I think it's a wonderful hotel that marries Japanese style with the atmosphere of a foreign-owned hotel! #gw2022jp #luxuryhotel #greatview #coupletrip #oldkaruizawa #recommendedfordates #photogenicspot

These are photos from my stay at the Kyukaruizawa Kikyo Curio Collection by Hilton! In conclusion, it was a truly wonderful hotel! The building itself was a renovated old hotel, and it had a retro feel with the atmosphere of old Karuizawa, but as it was rebranded and reopened in 2018, the interior was really beautiful! By the way, the room I stayed in this time was a courtyard suite! #gw2022jp #greatview #luxuryhotel #coupletrip #recommendedfordates #retrospot #photogenicspot #kyaruizawa

I went to Karuizawa by bullet train to see the autumn leaves🍁! I stayed at the "Kyu-Karuizawa Kikyo Curio Collection by Hilton".

The hotel has 50 rooms, and it's quiet, and most of the rooms are over 50 square meters, so it's perfect for staying in💓 (The room in the photo I stayed in is the Kikyo Suite) What's more, the drinks (including alcohol) and snacks in the refrigerator in the room are free‼ ️ This is a nice service😃 In the evening, alcohol and soft drinks are free in the lounge, and snacks are also served. (Free for Hilton Diamonds, paid for non-Diamonds) The courtyard has a chapel and beautiful nature, so it's relaxing. In autumn, the leaves change color, but in summer, it's cool, and the snowy scenery in winter is also attractive. I'd like to return in a different season...
