Hot Springs Hotels in Akita Prefecture, Japan

"The hotel service was good. Booking the timed shuttle bus service was very convenient! Our room was in the East Wing, which required carrying luggage up a few steps before being able to take the elevator to the room. This aspect needs improvement. The room itself was very spacious and comfortable. Both breakfast and dinner were buffet style, offering a wide variety of dishes, including local specialties. After 9 PM, dandan noodles were available as a late-night snack. The public hot spring bath was also quite nice!"

"This Japanese traditional hotel was absolutely amazing! 😌 Stepping into the room was instantly relaxing. The room was filled with a nostalgic atmosphere, and every corner was filled with thoughtful details. Dinner at a nearby sushi restaurant was exquisite and delicious, a feast for both the eyes and the palate. After soaking in the hot spring, all my fatigue vanished. Next time I'm in Japan 🇯🇵, I will definitely choose this place again! #JapanTravel #HotSpringRestaurant #UltimateEnjoyment"

"From Tazawa Lake Station transfer bus, the hotel is near the bus station, less than three minutes walk, nearby also bike rental, you can cycle along Tazawa Lake for a week, you can also take a bus to the nearby pizza shop, we booked a two-stay, very exquisite and delicious food, and private bath available for reservation"

"It's very inconvenient without a car, but the calm and quiet environment was perfect for a relaxing night. It's just over an hour's drive from Lake Towada and Oirase Gorge, but for hotels in the same price range, the cleanliness and food were better than hotels around Lake Towada. The only downside is that there are only a limited number of places to eat within walking distance, so it's probably best to have dinner at the hotel or eat in advance. The room was clean and the food was delicious, so I was very satisfied."

"First of all, I booked this hot spring hotel on Saturday and it cost me 33,600 yuan. I thought I could live in a big room, but everything became a mess after two sleeping mats were laid out at dinner time. We couldn't open our luggage because there was no place, and we had to jump to go to the bathroom because there was no way to go. I was really angry. I booked this hotel because it is a LA VISTA group, but the food, both the ingredients and the taste are worth the price. There are also many snacks, water, Yakult, and fresh milk in the lounge after the hot spring, but there is no juice. This is what I find strange. In addition, we often pass by the counter, and the waiters treat you as air. Anyway, the way of this hotel is to come and go. Just now we checked out and put on our shoes, and they turned around when we said byebye, and didn't even come to the door. Am I really expecting too much?"

"Surprisingly, there were so many baby supplies available, as well as baby care items and games to borrow. The free late-night snack was a great selling point, because if you really miscalculated your trip, didn't book a hotel dinner, and didn't want to eat instant noodles from a convenience store, that free bowl of ramen would definitely help."

"This hotel, located on the Akita Prefecture side of Lake Towada, exceeded our expectations in terms of both accommodation space and dining experience. It's a highly competitive choice in the area, perfect for our self-drive trip with three people. **Room and Environment:** The Japanese tatami room was more than spacious enough for three of us. The hotel's location is excellent, just a few minutes' walk from Lake Towada, making it very convenient for morning or evening strolls. **Signature Robatayaki Dinner:** The dinner was the absolute highlight of our stay. The 'Robatayaki' experience offered at the restaurant was not only theatrical but also featured incredibly fresh ingredients, including scallops, prawns, seasonal vegetables, and the unique mentaiko-stuffed chicken. What truly stood out was the integration of Akita's traditional 'Kiritanpo' rice sticks, grilled with a rich miso sauce, offering an authentic local flavor. A dedicated chef managed the grilling and cooking right in front of us, allowing guests to simply relax and enjoy the delicious food – the service was impeccable. Furthermore, there was a diverse selection of additional ingredients and beverages available for purchase, catering to various tastes. **Onsen Facilities:** The next morning, we experienced the hotel's onsen facilities. The large public bath, separated for men and women, was clean and comfortable, an ideal spot for relaxation. **Transportation and Summary:** The hotel is situated in a tranquil environment. As there are no nearby train stations, a self-drive is highly recommended, and the hotel provides convenient parking for guests. Considering the generous room size, professional dining service, and reasonable prices, this is a hotel with excellent value for money. I highly recommend it to travelers planning an in-depth visit to Lake Towada."

"The location is decent. You can take the Nyuto Line bus from Lake Tazawa to the resort center station. You can either arrange for the hotel to pick you up or walk for 15-20 minutes (though it's a bit tough with luggage due to an uphill section). The main draw of this hotel is the complimentary shuttle to Tsuru-no-Yu for an hour of hot spring bathing at 8 PM. Dinner and breakfast are included and the food is pretty good. The hotel service is excellent. With only a few guest rooms, it feels very private and is perfect for a relaxing stay of 1-2 nights."

"Akita Old-fashioned hot spring hotel, located in the snowy mountains and forests, quiet, the staff service in the store is very good, the whole team will come to see you off before leaving, very touched, only the facilities are a bit aging, the water in the room is insufficient, the door is locked after ten o'clock in the evening. Breakfast is not bad. Dinner is recommended for external use.."
