Hotels near Iizaka Onsen, Fukushima

This getaway was exactly what I wanted. Traditional, immersive, comfortable, accomodating. The staff came and greeted us in the car park, the dinner and breakfast was amazing, delicious, adventurous. And the onsen on the roof was perfect! The staff thoroughly explained their processes. I spoke some japanese and they spoke only some english but they were very accomating with us and welcoming. I would highly recommend and its also not far from town either. It snowed a little the night we stayed and it was so magical! We had our own private onsen at our room but the others in the ryokan are even better and available to be private, just lock door when your using.

The hotel is stunning, super cozy, and feels very exclusive since there aren't many rooms. The common area with the fireplace is everything. Free drinks, warm fire—I could literally chill there all day. Huge room, and the futons are surprisingly comfy. We did the half-board (breakfast & dinner) and it was seriously delicious. The staffs are super friendly and helpful, 10/10 service. The public Onsen baths are gorgeous and so relaxing—perfect for melting away muscle pain. Honestly, the Private Onsens (especially the outdoor ones) are a bit basic. No toilets or amenities out there, so don't be worry if you can't snag a booking; the main baths are better anyway! One Heads-up: This is a legit sulfur onsen town. The smell is strong and literally stuck to my car seats for days. 😂 Bring some air freshener!

Cannot fault this establishment .The room was large and well provisioned. The entire hotel was spotless. Located about 100 metres from the railway station exit. The beds were comfortable and large. BREAKFAST was delicious and varied. I UNRESERVEDLY recommend this home . Ps, very quiet.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel! The first great point is the proximity to the Fukushima Station. When I arrived, my check-in process was handled by the Manager, Matsuda-san. He was very friendly and warm. The room I stayed in was decently-sized, giving me enough room to walk around with a large suitcase and other bags on the floor. A suitcase stand and a small stool are provided. The beige wallpaper provided a nice contrast to the dark carpet. The controls for the room were absolutely fantastic - I could, for instance, adjust the brightness of the main light and the strength of the bathroom exhaust fan. The bathroom was slightly cramped, but I managed. An alarm clock is also provided for guests. The default blanket in the room was far too hot; even with the heating turned off, I felt like I was being roasted while I was in bed with the blanket covering me (and this was in winter!). I didn't like the default pillow either, it was too hard. On my last night, I requested a thinner blanket and softer pillow. Thankfully, the hotel was able to provide them, and I slept much better after using the new blanket and pillow. Funnily enough, the mattress was also quite hard, but it didn't give me any problems. The sound insulation was fantastic, and the cleaning staff were super quiet! I almost couldn't tell that they were outside my room doing their work! I also very likely had considerate Japanese guests on my floor, hence the peace. Nearby the hotel is S-Pal, where you can buy all sorts of prepared meals (if you're lucky, you can find a few vegan options). There's also a large pharmacy, and there are many convenience stores around. The main complaint I have is that the check-out time @ 10:00 is too early. I think 12:00 would be a better time. I did not have breakfast at the hotel, nor did I use any of the facilities, so I have no comment on those. I definitely recommend Hotel Route-Inn Grand Fukushima Ekimae to others, and I will definitely consider staying at Route-Inn hotels in other parts of Japan! Side Notes: (1) If you have large luggage and arrive at the Fukushima Station, you'll have to take the elevator at the west exit, and when you reach the ground floor you'll see another elevator about 20 metres in front of you (slightly to the left). This second elevator will take you to the underground passage, which you can use to get to the east side of the station, where Route-Inn Grand Fukushima is located. Do note that there is a rear entrance to the hotel (next to a public parking lot), and this will save you from walking to the front of the hotel with all your luggage. (2) Vegan options in Fukushima are unfortunately extremely limited, but you can find some vegan tofu bars and a few other items at 7-Eleven...but be sure to use Google Lens to translate the ingredients!

If you have requirements for landscape or surrounding traffic at Huayue Plateau Hotel, it is recommended to check the location and the line to the store in advance. Suitable for travelers who want to change their vacation body.

The front desk staff gave me a thorough explanation of everything and I was able to check in. The large public bath, breakfast area, and rooms were all clean and tidy.

Lady in the receptionist so lovely. She tried very hard to explain about rules and so on. Location is good, a lot of restaurant near hostel.

Excellent value for money! I booked through Trip.com and it included a wonderful, extensive breakfast. The room was a standard size, but had everything you needed, which is typical for hotels in Japan. Location-wise, it's about a 10-minute walk from Fukushima Station and just a 3-minute walk to the bus stop for Hanamiyama. You can check the bus schedule in your room and head out just in time. For buses to Aizu-Wakamatsu, you can catch them at Fukushima Station or, even closer, at the Prefectural Office, which is only a 5-minute walk away. It's also incredibly convenient for train travel: 1.5 hours to Tokyo by Shinkansen and just 30 minutes to Sendai.

Overall a nice hotel, very close to the JR train station, just a couple of minutes walk away. The room size was very generous a lot bigger than others we’ve stayed at in Japan. The bathroom was also very spacious with a full size bath and powerful shower. The hotel provides nightwear and toiletries as well as coffee and laundry. Breakfast has a good variety of choices although can we quite busy as peak times and items do run out. I would recommend as a good convenient choice if travelling by train.

So close to the station.... Almost opposite. There is a Family Mart combini 20 meters away. The proximity to the station was amazing, I enjoyed spending time shopping there and also I appreciated the complimentary breakfast. Nice and friendly staff and overall, a fantastic stay here
