“Super nice staff, they parked the car and explained everything. Room had a private onsen bath tube and was spacious. Public onsen was empty when i went there and had also a nice outside onsen. Dinner was great in a private room and brekkie was also amazing, served in a private room”
“Comfortable, clean, central
Very good breakfast!”
“Excellent dinner and breakfast .
Good onsen .
Nice staff .”
“Wonderful location, wonderful staff and wonderful hotel overall. The moment you arrive you feel welcomed, the lobby gives the vibes of a 5 stars hotel. Its crazy that the hotel is located exactly at the train station (makes everything easier) and the building is so big that if you get a room on a high floor, you have wonderful mountain views. I really loved the staff, specially a receptionist that helped us with a dining reservation. Unfortunately I forgot his name, but he made our stay beyond special. THANK YOU.
It was overall such a nice stay, I loved Yamagata and its sorroundings. The staff seems to be professionally trained and they can also speak good english. They have many type of rooms, we had the classic double room and even though it was not modern, we had a LOT of space and everyday cleaning/water. If I ever come to Yamagata again I would definetly stay here and also recommend it to others. I even wish we stayed here longer!”
“Absolutely amazing food! The whole experience was fantastic and I can’t recommend it enough. The onsen was lovely especially the outdoor one. There isn’t a lot of English spoken but that didn’t matter. The staff were so kind and really made our stay perfect.”
“For the price I paid, the quality of food exceeds expectation so were the hot springs. My only grouse is the pillows were not the traditional buck wheat pillows I expected. Meals were served in the room which has a separate sitting and dining area from the bed room. The Yonezawa beef came with a price but it is well worth paying for. A very nice 2-day stay.”
“Location excellent, by the station - but I didn't find it noisy.. B'fast good - all I needed. On the edge of town, but close to eateries and small shopping mall. The town's not huge, either.”
“A beautiful modern hotel in the middle of rice fields. The architecture stunning.”
“Lovely, large room, excellent meals, and wonderful hosts”
“Food was excellent, especially the kaiseki dinner. The location was beautiful and remote, but accessible by car. Staff were friendly and accommodating.”
