“Big disappointment”
I'll start by saying that the staff is really nice. When I arrive at the hotel in the evening, I expect the room to be warm and cozy when the temperature outside is 16 degrees. The room was freezing because they probably left the air conditioner on all day. It was still very cold before bed and we asked for heating in the room. They brought us an extra blanket made of wool like a camping blanket. No covers. There wasn't even drinking water in the room. It's a shame that you receive guests like this.

Rooms are too old. Color is fade. Wallpapers condition is very bad. Air condition is not available. They asked to open window for ventilation . Though we went in winter inside the room ventilation was not there.

“Great place to stay”
The hotel was very comfortable for us, conveniently located near the station with plenty of shops and restaurants around — even right next to Wendy’s 😊

“Wonderful hotel and best breakfast we had in Japan!”
We stayed for 2 nights in November and really enjoyed it. The hotel is conveniently located a short walk from Yamagata station. We had two good sized rooms located next to each other with lovely views. The highlight was the breakfast - amazing locally sourced food - the best breakfast we had in Japan! The hotel also has tea, coffee, and incredible cakes available in the lobby. We really appreciated how caring the hotel staff were in ensuring we had a great stay and looking after us in the restaurant. Highly recommend staying here - our family loved it and we will be back.

“Yamagata exploration base.”
Great hotel in Yamagata about 10 min walk from the train station and just off the main drag. Great location with a supermarket and small shopping centre next door. Great hotel as a base for adventures in the Yamagata region. Breakfast package is mostly Japanese style and amazingly tasty. The staff were very welcoming and helpful even though we cannot speak Japanese.
