Hotel Dengan bar di Akita Prefecture, Japan

The hotel is located on a mountain. In late April, the cherry blossoms at the foot of the mountain were in full bloom, but there was still some snow around the hotel. Lake Tazawa in spring, especially on a sunny day, is absolutely stunning; the water is a deep blue, just like the sea. We had great weather during our stay. Every morning after breakfast, we'd take the hotel's shuttle bus to Tazawa-ko Station to catch the Komachi Shinkansen to Kakunodate, Akita, and Morioka to see the cherry blossoms. In the afternoons, we'd take the Shinkansen back to Tazawa-ko Station, then the shuttle back to the hotel for dinner and a hot spring bath. The hotel service was excellent, and considering the price, the food was quite good too!

I stayed here from 21 April to 24 April and it was a highlight of my trip. The hotel offers very refined dining experience; instead of a standard kaiseuki, dinner was served course by course. This allowed us to slowly enjoy the incredibly fresh, regional ingredients. It was easily one of the best meals I've had. The onsen is pristine and offers a truly serene atmosphere, facing a lovely garden. Since I visited in late April, I was lucky enough to enjoy the view of cherry blossoms while soaking - a spectacular and relaxing experience. Most importantly, the staff's dedication to service is world class. I realised after checking out that I left my earphones behind. The team was kind enough to courier them directly to my next hotel. I am so thankful for their help. If you want a stay that combines beautiful views with genuine care, this is the place to book.

It's a very typical Japanese hot spring hotel, old but comfortable. The airport transfer service, hot springs, breakfast and dinner were all perfect. We walked along the mountain road to the seaside. The scenery was so beautiful that it cannot be described in words. What was particularly great was that during dinner, the auntie saw that we liked the paper towels under the plates and very thoughtfully rolled new ones for us. It was so heart-warming despite the language barrier. It was the best experience of this trip. . It's a pity that I don't know her name. I hope I can say thank you to her. I will go again in the summer if I have the chance!

為了看生剝鬼特意來男鹿市，晚上住在距離男鹿站兩站遠的船越站的酒店，酒店本身正對大河，出了船越站還需要步行20min左右。前台各處都可以看到生剝鬼的掛件和擺件，旁邊還有一個小小的紀念品商店角落，生剝鬼的鑰匙扣比生剝鬼館還便宜一點，最後離店的時候，又特意買了一個藍色的鬼站，和生剝鬼館買的紅鬼湊成一對。 前台小姐姐特別熱情親切，19：30之前前台旁邊有免費的咖啡和果汁可以喝。一樓大浴場出口也有免費不限量的冰激凌可以拿到房間裏面吃。 房間挺乾淨的，桌子比較長可以放東西，窗外可以看到河景。當天因為傍晚下雨，外面被風吹動的旗子聲音非常大房間裏面也能聽見，不過還好晚上風停了睡的也很好。 包含兩餐，2h定時的晚餐是烤肉套餐，自己吃自己烤，一大盤烤肉有魚有蝦大海螺，還有豬肉雞肉牛肉，雖然擺盤有點雜亂，但是分量一個人吃還是夠夠的。米飯和味增湯是自助免費的，還有90min的軟飲酒水的自助。早餐是自助，種類基本就是各種香腸丸子雞蛋燒，飲品是牛奶咖啡之類的，雖然種類比較少，但是也可以吃飽。 離店後步行20min跨過大橋可以拍到巨大生剝鬼雕像，雕像前面有個枱子可以卡住手機，非常滿意的一次小眾景點的出行

When I went there, he said there was no single room, so he gave me a double room😎 Very traditional hotel! There is even water 👍🏿 already many hotels do not give water🥲 The curtains cover the sun very well (I'm afraid of the dark🫨 The 55th anniversary of this TMI hotel 😆おめでとう!

This hotel has a great location within easy walking distance to the station and the park. Breakfast served on the top floor has a good aerial view of the city. Food selection was also great with excellent service even for someone like me who does not speak Japanese. Will return for sure.

Great accommodation experience, the environment is very comfortable and you can enjoy music on the first floor. The way to take a shower in the bathroom is a little inconvenient. There were very few people staying that day, so it was okay. The breakfast and dinner we had were both unique and delicious.

I wasn’t too impressed with the top floor public bath at first but the trick is to use the day use one on the ground floor which is connected. My biggest objection is to breakfast ending at 8:30. Had I known I wouldn’t have booked breakfast in advance.

I enjoyed the moment while staying here a lot, the price is so cheap compared to what I got, big room, dinner and breakfast, private bath and public bath access. I believe if you enjoy drinking Sake you will love the bar

Really nice home stay in a lovely little village. The host was friendly and helpful. Even though we turned up super late, he was very gracious and welcomed us into his home. Thank you!
