Akita Prefecture Vacations & Trips from ￥53,559

新しくてきれい。駐車場サービスもリーズナブルでした。

エントランスから雰囲気良い空間でした。設備の古い箇所は見受けられましたが、行動範囲は清潔に保たれていて、心地よく過ごせました。お風呂は小さめでしたが、温泉の温度は高めで、芯まで温まりました。雪の日に入ったらさぞや気持ち良いだろうなと思いました。 炉端焼きの夕食も面白かったです。サンマ1尾をかぶりつきました。 焼いて準備してあるものを受け取るスタイルでしたが、もう少し種類や自分で選んだものを焼くなどで、炉端周りに活気があったらテンションもう1段上がったかなという印象です。

You know Akita is little difficult location to go from Tokyo. So there is little foreign tourist. We booked 2 rooms but we had a hard time to identify 2nd room. Their duty manager was kind and patient to help us. We want to visit this local hotel which shows friendly and tactful actions.

A nice set-up for a ski-in/ski-out resort. My kids also had great lessons with an English instructor. Getting to Appi Kogen was also quite easy with the buses from Morioka Station. We were also bumped up to a larger room, which was very comfortable, especially by Japanese standards. That was also great. However….. The only drawback was the very limited food options, especially for dinner with young kids, who don’t eat very much anyway. We live in Japan, so we’re accustomed to Japanese portions, local izakayas, bentos, etc. But this was challenging. It was either spend 20,000¥-30,000¥ for a mediocre buffet, where the kids just wanted a few bites of the simplest food. Or a yakiniku restaurant that would’ve been 30,000¥ - 40,000¥ for a family of 4. High-end sushi spot that would’ve been even more pricey. (The room service menu is quite sad, and again would be close to 20,000¥) Or, you’re left with getting instant Nissin ramen cups at the convene, which is what we ended up doing the last night. (Breakfast, again, pay steep prices at the buffet, or wait till the bakery opens at the comically late hour of 10:00am, when you of course want to be on the slopes.) Anyway, I’d suggest packing some of your own bentos, or be prepared to pay. ¥¥¥¥¥¥
