Hotel berhampiran Narakan Water Park, Hirosaki

良いロケーションで、スタッフの皆様大変優しく対応してくださいました。 コインランドリーがあると伺っていましたが、コインランドリーまでのアクセスがちょっと面倒(客室フロアからのエレベーターが2階までなので、1度2階で降りてまた1階に降りないといけない)でした。 コインランドリー以外は全て満足でした。

I spent two nights here while backpacking around Japan with a rail pass. The staff was very helpful and the capsules were pretty comfortable. The lockers next to the capsule were a bit on the skinny side so I had to unpack some stuff from my backpack to squeeze it in. The pull down blind on the capsules have locks so you can leave some belongings on your bed while you visit the baths or find dinner in the neighborhood. The bath area is nice and hot though tile/grout needed some scrubbing. Be careful going into the sauna room as the door is short and easy to bump your head on if you stand up too soon after passing through. It was crazy hot so the wooden benches may burn your skin if you don't take one of the foam cushions in with you to sit on. The toiletries provided were of good quality, especially the razor. If you are staying more than one night, you can leave your luggage with the staff behind the counter while you go see the sights of Hirosaki. I hope to visit this city and hotel again someday.

朝食付きシングルのプランで宿泊しました。オフィシャルホームページでは、朝食は新型コロナウィルス感染拡大防止策の一環として、バイキングでの提供を中止し、和食のお膳での提供と書かれていますが、朝食バイキングが復活していました。帆立貝焼き味噌・イカ大根・生姜味噌おでんなど、この地域ならではの料理が並んでいて、とてもよかったです。部屋は古いタイプの部屋で、暗めで枕元にコンセントなどもなく、小さなテレビがベッドから離れた窓際にありました。ベッドとテレビの間の広い空間は、壁に収納されたエクストラベッド用の空間でした。バスルームは現在では考えられないほど狭かったです。部屋のキーはカードキーではなく、昔ながらの真鍮キーでした。立地は駅から遠いと思われる方もいるかと思いますが、駅と弘前城の中間ぐらいにあり、夜の弘前公園を散策するのに都合がよかったです。

I stayed in a single room in this hotel. The room was very spacious for one person. Everything looked new and the room was kept very clean. I really love my room. The breakfast was simple but very tasty as the ingredients were fresh. The location of the hotel is excellent, directly opposite JR Hirosaki Station, about 100m away. The receptionists could speak some English and they were very helpful and professional. The coin laundry machines were handy.

大浴場が14階にあります。 脱衣籠にルームキー（部屋番号ガ記入それたカードキー）を置くと盗難の危険があるので、ロッカーに入れるよう注意書きがありました。ロッカーは浴室入口前、スリッパ置き場のムカイにありました。 朝食の内容は二泊しましたが変化あり良かったです。 連泊時、外出の際は一旦ルームキーをフロントに返します。 駅のすぐ向かい側で荷物を預けての観光、電車移動にとても便利グッズでした。 観光には駅前からの100円バスがオススメです。駅の観光協会で借りるレンタサイクルもオススメです。

Hirosaki Art Hotel is conveniently located right next to Hirosaki Station. The front desk staff are very friendly and nice, keeping our luggage before check in time and after check out. The hotel's room is comfortable and clean and the breakfast is very good. Hirosaki Art Hotel is a great value for money's choice, highly recommended.

The main purpose of the trip was to take the joyful train ride on Resort Shirakami, and instead of over five hours on the train, staying in an onsen hotel on the route for a night sounded a better option. This hotel was chosen because it is right next to the sea with nice view from the room. The outdoor onsen offers panoramic views of the Japan Sea, and in the website, they mentioned the onsen being fossil seawater hot spring, which was originally seawater, which sounds interesting. The package included dinner and breakfast and there is the choice of buffet or set dinner. I chose the set dinner and the food was very good.

Simple, no frills, comfortable ryokan set in a very secluded beautiful narrow wooded valley with a rushing stream outside the windows. Be aware: the smell of paraffin from the lamps is unmistakable, pervasive, catches in your throat, and your clothes will smell of it after you have left. Having got that out of the way, everything else is makes it a really special experience. There is no wifi, phone signal, no television, so you can slow down, relax and appreciate the onsen and the nature surrounding you. The meals were healthy and delicious, featuring fresh foraged ingredients. You will not go hungry. We requested vegetarian meals a few days in advance. Eating the meal in the tatami dining room in the lamplight and watching the light fading outside was beautiful. You will make up your own futons and there are shared toilet and tooth cleaning facilities. Everything is spotlessly clean. There are several baths: two with a view of a delicate waterfall, which are not very hot, so good for summer, a mixed sex rotemburo with times for women only, an ofuro in the main building, and 2 cypress baths in a cypress building with a view of the river, and the water is gloriously hot. Plus an outdoor footbath. All are lit with atmospheric lanterns. There is a car park a short walk up the hill from the ryokan. The old wooden main building is full of character and decorated with items of local folk art. There are some small areas of garden planted with native plants near the entrance, but the rest of the surroundings are just the area's flora and fauna.

娘夫婦と宿泊しました。建物はいい感じで古く、きちんと手入れされています。今の建築では表現出来ないノスタルジックな雰囲気が良いです。 温泉の質も良いです。肌の調子が良くなりました。 食事の内容も非常に満足出来ました。普通の人より多く食べる方ですが量も満足です。 当日は満室だったとのことですが、落ち着いた良い時間を過ごすことが出来ました。 紅葉や雪の季節に改めて来てみたいです。
