Hotels met Wifi in Iwate Prefecture, Japan

Our second stop on this East Japan trip was Morioka. The hotel is right across from the station, but I didn't dare cross the road because there was no pedestrian sidewalk. So, I took the underground passage instead. Since it was my first time there, I wasn't familiar with the area and had to carry my suitcase up the stairs. Luckily, there weren't too many steps. I actually didn't have high hopes for this hotel, but it turned out to be surprisingly good! The service was excellent, and it's conveniently connected to a Lawson convenience store; you can enter the hotel directly with your room key. I heard the breakfast was good, so I bought one day's worth to try it out. It was 2600 JPY per person, and breakfast started at 6:15 AM. The Japanese really wake up early – there was already a queue before it even opened! The single room was very spacious, and the soundproofing was excellent. The price was also very reasonable. I'll definitely choose this place again next time I'm in Morioka.

How do I describe this hotel? In one word: amazing. It was my first time experiencing a mixed-gender bath from over a century ago. I was truly impressed! The elderly gentlemen were just casually strolling around without a care in the world. Families, you absolutely must try the mixed-gender outdoor hot spring bath. It's located in the old wing of the hotel, a bit of a walk from the new wing, but once you're in the hotel, just grab a map and you'll find it. You can also take the opportunity to peek into the rooms and dining hall of this century-old ryokan. As for the room, it goes without saying that upon entering, you're greeted with a flood of green, which was quite a pleasant surprise. The only minor point is that the Hozawa River was a bit murky. I drove upstream along the river, and soon lost cell service, so it is quite remote, but definitely worth a visit. The two meals were decent, nothing spectacular but perfectly acceptable.

We were two people staying 3 nights. We had breakfast and we were very happy with it (6:30-10:00, L.O 9:30). It didn’t change much during the stay, but it had a lot of options and it tasted good. The room was small. If you have suitcase it will be hard to open it up. We didn’t have suitcases, so for us it was no problem. The bed and pillows were comfortable. They have a manga library and coffe machine (15:00-22:00), and space with tables and chairs where you can e.g eat. They have laundry as well (10:00-22:00). It was cheep (washing 400 yen 30 min, dryer 100 yen 10 min). It was a standing washing machine (which I don’t really like) and we had a lot of laundry, so we went to another coin laundry 1 min walk from the hotel, which was good (washing 15 kg 30 min 800 yen, drying 10 min 100 yen). We didn’t use room cleaning, but every day we got a bag of towels on our door knob. It is around 10-15 min walk to the station. But it’s close to shopping streets and Iwaki park. It has a lot of restaurants close by. If you like all-you-can-drink there’s a lot of options close by as well. After check out we left our baggage for a couple of hours. It was no problem. The people at the hotel were very nice and polite. Overall we had a very nice stay at this hotel.

The location of this hotel is very good, just on the edge of the pure land, you can also book the shuttle back and forth to Miyako Station in advance. We took the shuttle at 16:00 to Miyako Station from Miyako's Beishan rugged to Miyako Station on the same day. When we returned, we took the photo directly from the pure land shore and took the bus to the station. The hot spring temperature of the hotel is not very high, the indoor and outdoor scenery is very good, the men's and women's soup will change every day, so we have soaked in the evening and morning, very comfortable. The hotel restaurant has an evening buffet on the same day, and there are some banquets/restaurants booked by the company or team. There are no restaurants that are open to tourists walking in and a la carte. We walked back and forth for about an hour to the nearest convenience store for dinner. From the hotel to the road, I didn't need to hit the flashlight. The stars at night were beautiful. The bar was open at night. The special wine was 800 yen. The value was still good but it was not good. It was not recommended. There are many types of breakfast. I am very happy to sit by the window and eat breakfast while watching the sunrise in the morning. I like this natural scenery very much. The overall environment and facilities can give full marks. The attitude of the front desk at this hotel is generally given to the tail room, and the room given is not the size of the area written on Trip.com . The hotel confirmation form 36-40 flat room is at the front desk. It shows that it is a pine forest side room. There is no size, visually 20-24 flat, The front desk did not change it, so after negotiating with Trip.com on the same day, it should be that the information provided by the supplier when booking online has been wrongly given a certain point compensation, which has a little impact on the good mood of travel.

Facilities: Well-equipped Cleanliness: Spotless Environment: Pleasant Service: Enthusiastic

The hotel is new and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful. The hot springs are very comfortable, and the environment is exceptionally peaceful. The buffet is delicious. I highly recommend it to friends who are traveling by car!

I chose this hotel because it was a new, conveniently located hotel right by the station. **What I liked:** * The room was clean and spacious. * They offered three different kinds of soup as amenities. * The room wear was a separate top and bottom set. * There was a large public bath. * Welcome drinks and post-bath ice cream were available until 1 AM. * I could check various things on the in-room TV (e.g., public bath crowding, availability and end time of laundry machines). **What was a bit confusing:** * The room's air conditioning control panel (it was a digital display under the TV). * There was no coffee with the amenities (located next to the lobby on the 1st floor), so I had to go to the welcome drink area (on the 2nd floor) to get some. Overall, it was a very comfortable space with attention to detail. I'd like to stay here again.

Overall, the hotel is great and perfect for those who want to focus on skiing. However, the hotel is a bit old and the soundproofing isn't the best. On the positive side, the staff are very friendly and happy to help with any issues. The facilities are also well-equipped and suitable for families, with many amenities and ski lesson packages for children.

A group of four of us booked a cabin on a whim, and I’m so happy we did!! We did a two-day ski trip to Geto Kogen, and I cannot stress enough how convenient these cabins were to the resort itself. We stayed overnight in between two days at the resort. The drive up to the resort was less than 20 minutes. The cabin itself was super cozy, so comfortable, had great amenities for the short time we were there, and the staff were so kind and helpful. Everything was very clean, the heater was already on when we arrived, which was a very thoughtful touch, and we were able to hang all our snow gear to dry thanks to the copious amounts of hangars available. We felt it was a crazy good deal based on the price, location, and availability to book it just a few days in advance. We will definitely be back in the summer to use the grill and go golfing at the country club!

I stayed at this place during my hike through the Michinoku coastal trail. This is a good choice before you attempt Kurosakiso and Kitayamazaki coast. This can be reached easily from Horinai station. Cross the big bridge and walk a bit more, you can see the sign to the left. The hotel has nice indoor and outdoor onsen. Many locals come here to use the onsen. They probably have annual or life membership to use the onsen. It is a nice opportunity to chat with some of them. When I was there, it was raining and hence I could not enjoy the view, however, using onsen after hiking in the rain was quite relaxing. On a clear day, the ocean can be seen from the room window. Dinner can be ordered and is quite good at a reasonable price. The next day, the hotel shuttle dropped me to the train station which was quite nice, I did not have to walk in rain.
