Homestays in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan

A great experience, a hot spring hotel that you can't miss when skiing in Zao. The outdoor hot spring is great, the breakfast and dinner are also rich, and the service is very good. Because I left too early, I didn't feel the farewell ceremony, which is a little regretful. I look forward to staying next time!

Very nice hotel close to ropeway station and Zao onsen town. Walking distance to the shrine, famous onsen bath and shopping streets. The room very clean, staff super friendly and breakfast and dinner spread are very good!

ถือเป็นที่พักที่นอนสบายมาก เหมือนอยู่บ้าน โรงแรมใหญ่ ทำเลสำหรับคนมีรถถือว่าดี ตั้งอยู่ที่เนินสูงพอสมควร แต่ติดกับลานสกี หมายเลข 3 เลย จากโรงแรมสามารถเดินออกด้านข้างและสไลด์ลงไปที่ลานสกีได้เลย ข้อดีคือสะดวกตรงนี่ ข้อเสียคือ ผมไม่มีรถเวลากลางคืนต้องขึ้นลงเนินไกลพอสมควรจากถนนเส้นหลัก แต่ก็เดินได้ชิวๆเพราะอากาศหนาวดี ข้อดี ข้อเด่น รร มีบ่อน้ำร้อนส่วนตัวและสาธารณะ บ่อสาธารณะเข้าฟรี ดีมาก แช่ทุกวันเลย จองอาหารเช้า และเย็น อร่อยและคุ้มค่ามากๆ โรงแรม มีบริการรถรับส่งฟรีถึง 17:30 น. หากใครเดินทาง ก็แจ้งให้ โรงแรมไปรับส่งได้ ก็ถือว่าดีเลย

Great Ryokan and food. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this place. From the outside it didn’t look like a hotel for tourists but we’re pleasantly surprised after we stepped inside. It’s a beautiful Ryokan and probably the best in the area. Only complaint is there’s nothing much else around. Most of the restaurants are closed for business and not many shops around as well.

Charming onsen hotel located 5 min drive from Kaminoyama station. A shuttle pick up can be arranged with the hotel ahead of time available from 1430-1800. It’s a relatively dated property but well maintained. A small public onsen with a rotenburo, and a small private onsen within the room comfortable for two. The spring water through the property is the same. Meals provided are extensive, balanced and nutritious featuring local specialities like yam, Yamagata and Yonezawa beef. Drinks are offered at the lounge in the afternoon from 1700, morning coffee and tea available from 0800. Overall a comfortable and luxurious stay.

Although the price of accommodation including one room and two meals is nearly NT$20,000, after personal experience, I really feel that this hotel is worth it... 1. When checking in, a dedicated person will deliver the luggage to the room. Guests can enjoy the beautiful Japanese garden in the lobby on the first floor while drinking coffee/green tea/matcha/drinks carefully prepared by the hotel. At this time, they can feel the hotel's care! 2. You can pre-select a dining time for dinner and breakfast the next day, and you can dine in a small private room with your roommate, and there is a dedicated person to serve you. The meals are exquisite and delicious, and the ingredients are all served in exquisite Japanese small utensils. After experiencing it, I feel that the money spent is worth it... Third, there are hot spring pools indoors and outdoors, and the hot springs are really flowing in them. The outdoor pools are very Japanese-style. It is a rare life enjoyment to be able to soak in the hot springs in the hot springs on snowy days! Fourth, there are only 22 rooms in the entire hotel, and the floors are all tatami. The beautiful scenery and good soup really make tourists relax and sigh, what more could they ask for in a husband!

I was looking forward to choosing steak or sukiyaki for dinner at the time of booking, but I couldn't choose it and decided to sukiyaki. It was delicious. Breakfast was Japanese and salty small plates lined up, which was a subtle feeling. the reservation site I was disappointed with the food because I felt that it was a buffet, probably because it was a difference. Is it better to bring all the amenities? The hot springs and rooms were clean and comfortable. Recommended for hot spring main people. But it may be difficult to move to people with bad knees.

When I made the reservation, there were only a few rooms left. I sent an email to the hotel to ask if it was possible to accommodate three people in a room, as I wanted to add more people, but the hotel did not respond. Later, when I arrived at the hotel, I had to ask my friend to book a hotel nearby. Because the location is very remote and we arrived late, the room we bought included dinner, but the hotel was unwilling to give it to an extra friend to dine together. They were also very strict. Even if we wanted to pay, they were unwilling to give us an extra seat to dine together. They even wanted to kick our friends out. When we asked our friends to stay in the room, someone would come to the room and knock on the door to kick us out. The experience on the first day was not very good. We are very polite guests and we don't make noise or disturb other guests, but it is hard to understand how the hotel treats guests. Still keep saying だめだめだめ

Comfortable and relatively inexpensive hotel. Although the rooms are clearly not modern, but all kind, strong, nothing broken. Pleasant private free rotenburo. Dinner is very tasty, satisfactory, diverse. Free transfer to the bus station. Attentive staff. We are very happy with the rest in this place. If you ever get lucky to get to Zhao again, we'll be happy to stop again in this fairy tale place. Thank you so much!

Beautiful hotel, pleasant scenery, delicious food The hotel staff are also very polite. I personally like hot spring hotels very much, but this hot spring hotel is also one of the best among those I have stayed in.
