Hachimantai Heights Reviews

I loved my stay at this hotel! The staff were absolutely incredible, the room was very spacious with a western style room attached to an 8 tatami tea room, and floor to ceiling windows highlighting the snowy exterior. The onsen with indoor and outdoor pools were fantastic, and most people staying at the hotel wore yukata which gave the whole experience a tranquil vibe. The bus from Morioka goes directly to the hotel. It was a perfect traditional Japanese hotel.

Good hotel with great food. Easy parking, plenty of space. However the down side is that the facility is really a bit dated and run down…

The only good thing is the dinner

Very good

We chose to stay at this hotel because we were going to Appi Plateau for skiing. It only takes about half an hour to drive there, which is very convenient. The hotel is much larger than expected, the staff is very friendly, the most surprising thing is the hot spring, the open-air bath is super comfortable, a lot of skin care products are provided. Free coffee and soda are provided in the lobby, which is very generous. There are also two free bottles of water in the room refrigerator every day. The room rate includes one night and two meals. Breakfast is a buffet and dinner is a Japanese kaiseki cuisine, which is very delicious.

The breakfast was also delicious and very good.

The room is large, the staff is very welcoming, and the breakfast and dinner are rich. I originally booked a day, and the first day was good, so I stayed another day. The temperature of the hot spring water is just right. I like the outdoor pool. You can watch the hot spring while soaking in it. snowflakes falling

The hotel hot spring is very good! The restaurant service was very good, we stayed two nights and the food for dinner was different on both nights! The price is very reasonable! I will definitely recommend it to my friends.

The room is small for three people. The hot spring water is not hot enough.

I stayed here when I came to Hachimantai to see the autumn leaves. It is a large hotel. When I arrived, the lobby had a slight sulfurous smell from the hot spring. There is a welcome drink bar in the lobby lounge. The room was a beautiful 8 tatami Japanese-style room. The shoji screens were gorgeous, the first time I'd seen them (pink, white, and purple with autumn leaf patterns). There were two room keys, which was helpful. The bath is a day-use bath. It was very crowded, probably because it was Sunday and autumn leaf season. The hot spring is clear (a little whitish with a little water) and has a sulfurous smell. From the open-air bath, Mt. Iwate was said to be watching, as the clouds were hanging over it. The open-air bath is lukewarm. The large bath was hot. It is a day-use bath, but amenities such as lotion are available. There are only three hair dryers, so they were hard to use, and I had given up on using them, but I finally got one to use. There was a water cooler, but the trash can for the water cooler cups was full, so there were many cups outside the trash can. They were piled up and falling onto the floor. The next morning, the bath was only for guests staying at the hotel, so I was able to take a leisurely bath. Since the bath was alternated between men and women, I was able to use the other bath as well. We had dinner in a beautiful venue with a chandelier that is also used for weddings. There were a variety of appetizers and hors d'oeuvres, and the sashimi was a unique salad of surf clams and tuna. Although I don't like surf clams, it had no odor and was delicious. The seafood soy milk hot pot had a gentle taste, and the Hachimantai bok shabu-shabu and cheesecake dessert were also delicious. The local sake from Hachimantai City was dry and delicious, and it was reasonably priced at 800 yen for 300cc, so we ordered several bottles. The man in charge of food was very kind and the service was full of hospitality, and my wife seemed happy. Breakfast was a buffet in a restaurant with a view of the garden. The pizza toast that you can make by cutting the bread to your desired thickness and topping it with various things seems to be popular. The not-too-salty hokke was delicious, and they also had Koiwai milk and local yogurt. After the meal, we had coffee in the restaurant and in the lobby lounge. It was a very convenient hotel for sightseeing in Hachimantai, and also had a good hot spring.
