4-Starhotels in Iwate Prefecture, Japan

This is the best ever hotel I have ever been to in Japan. The name Richmond guarantees so many things. You can count on it. Even though it’s not in a big city like Tokyo or Osaka, but if you are visiting Morioka - choose this hotel. It worth every penny of yours. The staffs are so helpful, dedicated and dependable at anytime and any situation you need. All staffs say that their English are not good, but I who lived in London for many years would say that their skill is more than just okay. Even the housekeepers are still nice. I have some problems with my luggage transfers to the airport from the hotel and they are trying their best to help me alleviate those. There is a free service lounge from noon to 8pm in the 2nd floor. The microwave oven and ice machine on the 7th floor. The coin washing machine is also located on the 7th floor - 500 yens for wash and dry. Convenient store(Lawson) is on the ground floor with direct access from the lobby. I’ve stayed on the 9th floor. The room is big and the view of the station was fabulous. Free WiFi is available. And the TV system communicates with all the system of the hotel shows all the information you need - even the time left of the coin washing machine that you used. Yakiniku and many delicious restaurants just around the corner from the hotel. Definitely will stay here again anytime I visit Morioka.

Het was echt de beste ryokan. Het personeel was erg vriendelijk en ik was tevreden met zowel het eten als de warmwaterbronnen. Ik vroeg om een ​​reservering te maken voor een shuttlebus naar het volgende hotel, en hij deed zijn best om het uit te leggen, aangezien ik geen Japans spreek. Aan het einde kwamen ze zelfs afscheid nemen en ik had het gevoel dat ik heel hartelijk werd behandeld.

This is a highly recommended and convenient hotel right in Morioka. The location is perfect: it's situated directly across from the train station, easily accessible via the underground walkway. It's also near Kaiunbashi, one of Morioka's signature spots, offering a great scenic view. For ultimate convenience, there's a 7-Eleven located right on the ground floor of the hotel. Beyond the location, the staff are very nice and incredibly helpful. The lobby provides an impressive array of amenities, more generous than many hotels I've visited. The room size is comfortable, and the bathroom is spacious, meeting the excellent standards of the Daiwa Roynet brand.

Overall very good place but a little difficult to find without maps because the sign on the front is not very big nor well lit. also the main entrance is not where you expect it but below ground level.

The hotel is loaded with tourist groups who are unfortunately pretty rowdy and rude. Service at the hotel itself was excellent, and for the price and location it’s a reasonable stay, as a ski-in-ski-out hotel. Breakfast is a standard Prince Hotel buffet.

入住日期：2025/11/03 我實在很慶幸最後我還是訂了這家「花卷溫泉紅葉館」，本來想要小資旅行，省去溫泉飯店，後來在網上看到「來花卷必住的飯店」，甚至晚餐還有蟹腳吃到飽，重點是：三館的溫泉都可以任你泡！！太吸引人了吧～～😍😍立馬不猶豫了，實際入住後，真的太喜歡～園區非常漂亮（還有大花園、神社）有規模之外，人員都非常和藹可親，包含在停車場指揮的爺爺，親和力都一百分，日式房間舒適寬敞，浴衣好美～窗外就是漂亮的美景，所有溫泉都泡過一遍甚至白天又繼續泡😂😂晚餐把費除了蟹腳還有現煎牛排，各種鍋物及鐵板料理，太多啦～～實在超推薦👍👍👍花卷必住溫泉飯店實至名歸🥰🥰

De kamer was mooi, schoon en geurvrij, en voorzien van een luchtreiniger. Het vervoer is handig, met supermarkten en restaurants in de buurt, en het station en de bezienswaardigheden liggen allemaal op minder dan 15 minuten lopen.

家族旅行で利用しました。3月に訪れてから2度目の宿泊です。温泉の湯でお肌がもちもちするのでお気に入りです。朝食や夕食も大満足！ I stayed here for a family vacation, this is my second stay after visiting in March. I love the hot spring water because it makes my skin glutinous. Breakfast and dinner are also very satisfying!

Appi Kogen is a beautiful resort area with a peaceful atmosphere and stunning mountain scenery. The location is convenient for accessing the ski slopes, and there’s a surprisingly good variety of food options nearby. From traditional Japanese meals to Western-style cafés and hotel buffets, you’ll find plenty to enjoy after a day on the slopes. It’s a great spot for both outdoor activities and relaxing in comfort.

A smart, neat, clean hotel with efficient check-in and luggage storage. Room was adequate with a lovely large window for city views and distant snowy mountains. Bathroom nice with a largish bath. Bed was very comfortable with the large, puffy duvet. Enjoyable 2 night stay.
