I highly recommend this hotel. First, the amenities are brand new. The 4th-floor lobby has a sophisticated design and the coffee is fantastic, with a wide selection. The rooms are also spacious, with floor-to-ceiling windows offering views of Aomori Bridge. Plus, free capsule coffee is available. The executive corridor on the 6th floor is completely free. After soaking in the apple hot springs, I went upstairs for a glass of apple juice while enjoying the night view of Aomori. It was quite relaxing. As for the service, we left our hats at Sendai Airport, and the hotel staff proactively contacted the airport to let us pick them up on our return trip. The feeling of having found them was incredibly satisfying, and I'm so grateful! Getting around is also very convenient. The bus to Oirase stops right downstairs. A Factory, Nebuta House, and the Apple logo at Aomori are all nearby. You can't go wrong with this hotel.
The hotel is quite far from Hirosaki Station. It may take 15-20 minutes to walk there, but the hotel has a shuttle bus to the JR station in the morning, which runs frequently. There are parking spaces, which is more suitable for self-driving tours. There are many restaurants near the hotel with many choices. It only takes 10 minutes to walk to Hirosaki Park.
The facilities at the Owana Onsen are complete, the performances are in place, the food is delicious, and the apple hot spring smells like apples. I am very satisfied with the reservation and will choose this place again when I come to Aomori for vacation
Although I chose this ryokan as alternative place but it turned out it is my best stay so far. It is not far from Kuroishi and it is accessible by public transport.
Room is very spacious and has both a bathroom and a toilet.
Onsen is good. It has both indoor and outdoor ones. Usually it is not busy.
Food was great both dinner and breakfast.
Free flow of both alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks are also included. Very generous.
Staffs are very friendly, although their English are very limited.
Extra 150 yen per person for onsen tax. Cash term only.
Cashless payment is available.
I booked this hot spring hotel because it looked so nice and located on the beach in the photos.
Thanks to the friendly staff, I had no inconveniences during my stay.
However, the following needs improvement.
1) Hot spring bath: The water in the two private jar baths in the open-air bath was too cold to use. Why didn't they refill the hot water?
2) Even if I feel thirsty while bathing, I can't drink water unless I go outside, which is inconvenient.
3) When I tried to apply for a train station pick-up service through Trip.com customer service, they said there was no such service. However, I was able to make a reservation when I went to Japan and called. Whose mistake was it, the Trip.com employee or the hotel employee???
4) The Trip.com customer service employee's response was too sloppy. Is it a language problem?
5) The hot spring water is good, and the outdoor hot spring has a sea view, so it's charming. Most of the cosmetics in the locker powder room are not refilled.
There's quite a bit to unpack about this hotel.
1. The hotel's ambiance, as well as the breakfast and dinner, were both excellent. A particularly nice touch was the complimentary apple juice served in the lobby from around 3 PM, which was very pleasant to enjoy.
2. Navigating the Oirase Stream options was the main challenge. Despite multiple choices like the hotel shuttle, open-top buses, and bike rentals, it's difficult to decide without prior research. Most visitors take the hotel's hourly shuttle to Ishigedo, begin their walk from there, and then time their return trip to catch a shuttle back.
3. Ishigedo offers both regular and electric-assist bicycle rentals. If you're heading towards Nenokuchi, I strongly advise against a regular bicycle due to the significant uphill climbs and physical strain involved.
4. Yasumiya, the JR bus's final stop, is well worth a visit for stunning views of Lake Towada, which are far superior to Nenokuchi's.
Aside from being overpriced, I was very satisfied with everything else.
The room was very comfortable. Although you couldn't specify a room type, it was large. The bed was also very comfortable. However, no one cleaned it. They were probably rehearsing for the Nebuta Festival performance, hahahaha.
The breakfast was very rich. We had seafood rice early in the morning, which was fantastic. The ingredients were fresh and high quality.
The waiters were all great. They were very friendly.
The Nebuta Festival performance was fantastic. Even though I didn't understand it, I was still moved by the actors' enthusiasm.
Great
