Hotels met breakfast in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan

The hotel staff is very enthusiastic to help There is a translator at the front desk so you are not afraid of not understanding After 9pm you can freely choose the hot spring. After soaking in the hot spring, there is milk to drink The room was large however a bit old but did not affect the overall experience The only inconvenience is that the location is a bit far from the attractions, it is best to have a car The room does not have a bathroom. You have to take a shower in the public bath The dinner is rich and the service is attentive

My second time staying in suiden terrase this year, still amazed with every detail on this hotel! Will come back again soon

This hotel exceeded my expectations completely. The yamagata airport shuttle (from airport) has a drop-off point right in front of the hotel. The hotel is a 5minutes walk from yamagata station. There is a seven-konbini on 1F of the hotel building, and a toyota car rental directly across the street (1min walk). The hotel room was much bigger than hotel rooms in tokyo, with an amazingly luxurious toilet. Bottled water is provided everyday, as long as you remember to place the ”Make-up room” magnet outside your room door by 10am. The restaurant on 1F sells delicious yamagata beef sukiyaki, it is highly recommended though semi-expensive. The surrounding area of the hotel has a good mix of izakayas, konbinis (all 3 big brands incl lawsons & familymart), and fast food; you'll never go hungry. The reception desk is on 3F and the self-service amenities were of good quality (i.e., scented and thick oshibori, 2 different brands of facial cleansers & lotions, and drip coffee). The staff deserve praise for being so friendly, helpful, and accomodating; they allowed our request for cleaning to be done after 11.30am instead of the usual 10am, and gladly provided extra hangers and laundry bags. Speaking of laundry, there are coin operated laundry machines in this hotel, which have both washing and drying in a single machine; the machine is also password-protected per wash, which gives one a peace of mind. Stayed here for 9 nights as my base of operations for this holiday, I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Daiwa Roynet Yamagata Ekimae. 10/10.

The receptionist here is very kind, although they don't speak each other's language, they are still kind and communicate with us with gestures and paper. The room is exactly the same as the hotel introduced, very cute Japanese style, the heating and bed have been turned on when entering the room, the whole is very intimate! You can soak in the hot springs in the room, very comfortable 😌 The bed is hard, but this is also one of the characteristics! You can also store your luggage after check-out! Everything is beautiful, I recommend everyone to live!

This was my first time staying at Zao Shiki, and it's conveniently located just a 7-minute walk from the Zao Ropeway station. The lobby felt a bit dark when I walked in, with an old European style. While the snow view from the balcony was beautiful, it wasn't very expansive. The room seemed to have been renovated, with two single beds that were very comfortable, spacious, and clean. Although the hotel has both indoor and outdoor hot springs, I was informed that the outdoor one was temporarily closed for some reason, so I could only use the indoor one. The hotel also offers access to a separate 'hut' about 100 steps away, which has outdoor, indoor, and foot baths. It was a bit of a hassle, but they provide yukatas, red heavy snow coats, and boots at the entrance to walk over, which was quite fun despite the snow outside.

All good, dinner breakfast is great, the room is a bit dirty, the TV is a bit small, the entertainment is less at night, the food is very satisfactory, the next time you have the opportunity to stay, the self-driving past is very good to find, the parking lot is a little bit away from the hotel, the hotel will pick it up

I spent two nights in Tokyo Daiichi Hotel Tsuruoka and I would stay there again. The location is very good - ten minutes easy walk from Tsuruoka JR train station and it's directly connected to S-Mall, so you don't even have to go outside to access the shops and restaurants in the mall. There is also a bus terminal at the mall for local buses - I caught a bus from there to Mount Haguro. The bedroom was a good size for a Japanese business hotel with a good size desk and chair. However, I could only find one power socket! It's good that I brought a power strip! Typical of Japanese hotels with Onsen / Sentō the bathroom is small - most people would use the public bath facilities to shower. The hotel has a Japanese style bath, however it was in the annexe, so it was rather confusing the first time I tried to find it. Two of the baths were inaccessible - the door was locked. The main bath was okay, there is a sauna and cold plunge pool. The front desk were very polite, efficient and could speak basic English.

Absolutely lovely place. At first I thought I'd be uncomfortable with how spaceous the room was (I'm a very jumpy solo traveller), but the room was just so comfy with an excellent view. The heater was a bit hot, but there was an electric fan too, so all was great. The hotel allows you to have a free 50 minute private bath each night, and the private baths are amazing, able to accommodate up to five persons and with windows to let in the light and stuff. Excellent onsen water -- very acidic and very hot. Takes some time getting used to the heat, but once you do it's a heavenly experience. There are also public baths (free of charge) that you could enjoy throughout the night and into early morning (they're closed for cleaning only during 9-12 in the morning), one indoor and one outdoor, both connected to one another. The outdoor one is a bit small, but it's so refreshing to be able to flee from the stifling indoor onsen to enjoy the crisp winter air while soaking up in the heat.

Overall a practical hotel close to the slopes, room was simple but fine. Free shuttle provided which proved very convenient. Breakfast was good with different options both Japanese and western styles. Staff was helpful especially the Japanese personnel and the young lady in the breakfast room however there was one Indian-like man who was not really hospitable, never smiling and never talking (no hello, nothing at all) staring at you which made me uncomfortable.

A wonderful place to stay in. The service was fantastic. The room was huge, much too large for just a solo traveler like me but it would have been perfect if I had brought my wife and child along. The onsen quality was great, albeit the fittings at the shower area were a bit old. The food was hands down amazing and featured great local produce. Honestly there was too much for one person to finish! What I especially liked was that they had a separate room on the first floor where if it was too early for you to check in, you could drop your luggage off, change, and then grab your gear and head to the slopes. Same thing if you intend to charge the slopes a bit more on your last day, just leave your stuff in the storage room, hit the slopes, come back and change out, hit the onsen for the last time, then go off. Definitely recommending this place to my friends visiting Zao.
