Hotel berhampiran Kurikawainari Shrine, Kaminoyama

素晴らしいロケーション小高い丘の上にホテルが建てられているため、街ぜんたいが見わたせてとても嬉しいポイント。働いている人も全員若いのにサービスに無駄がなくテキパキとサポートしていただきました。 絵皿のコレクションは素晴らしい大好きなタレントさんや大物政治家　作家　企業家アスリートの生き方生活信条を少しでも感じることができて、この宿に決めて良かったと思う。　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　

A small upclass onsen ryokan situated near Zao onsen but a bit far away, you will easily missed the hotel entrance if not careful, the atmosphere is peaceful and you can hear the sound of nature (forest), quite a nice ryokan, but it would be better if they provide kettle in room instead of having to travel to the hotel lobby to obtain hot water.

I just about 5-7 minutes walk from the station. Is really a nice hotel. Looks very new and room size is good. I really like the restaurant downstairs. The beef is one of the best I ever have. Also discount for hotel guests. Same restaurant for breakfast.

The hotel is not far from the station. There is an elevator and the room was quite nice with a wonderful view over the city. We paid about 36€ a night which was a good price for what we got. The bathroom was small as in most hotels in this category but everything was clean and well maintained. Extra free toiletries can be picked up at the reception, who was always friendly and helpful. The room could be a bit bigger as with two bags / suitcases you have to move some furniture for storage ;-) The English skills of some receptionists could be improved. In general we had a pleasant stay at the hotel and would recommend it.

Attached to Yamagata Station. Easy for transportation. Although we weren’t allowed for early checked in, they help us kept most of luggage in their storage. Luggage that Ive sent from my previous destination were directly sent to my room. Lobby staff were friendly. Room was spacious, bed were big enough for us (2 adults and a 4 years old boy). They even give my son amenities (slippers and toothbrush sets). Laundry service was affordable although located in another wing, the machine usage status frequently updated in the tv info page. Very helpful. Breakfast was either set of japanese or english breakfast. We are a muslim family, although they cannot provide halal food but the team hell us to omit meat products. Both me was luxurious and delicious. Recommended place to stay if you’re in Yamagata.

歌人　斎藤茂吉氏とゆかりのある宿。　泊まった方や地域の方が詠んだ和歌が飾ってあり、部屋にも短冊、筆がおいてあります。 部屋数も少なく、食事も個室で頂けて、とても落ち着いた雰囲気の良いお宿です。　置かれた調度品や家具、食事に使われている食器など、こだわりとセンスの良さを感じます。 特に積もった雪を見ながら入る白濁した硫黄の香る温泉と山形の食材を使った優しい味わいの美味しい料理は目でも楽しめて、大満足。　食材などの質問へも丁寧に答えて頂き、山型の歴史や文化を知ることもできました。　バスターミナルやロープウエイ乗り場への送迎も嬉しいサービスです。

We arrived at Mt Zao in the middle of Our Epic Six Week Trip To Japan, during which we stayed in nine different hotels. This room was amongst my favourites. The staff largely didn't speak English and were not helpful. We had a stand off at the restaurant as we didn't understand that we couldn't dine at there without having made a booking far in advance. After this was explained,  there was no apology or suggestions for alternative dining options. There are limited dining options in Zao. We ate at the Soup Curry place one night and a cute sushi joint another night. On the last night we ended up getting an ebiken bento box from the local L****ns as nothing was open. We did book breakfast each morning and that was fantastic. Lots of Japanese and Western options and it seemed like the food had all been prepared onsite. The hotel is very pretty, with a lovely view of the forest from the lobby. There is a common room with free coffee, tea and ice creams. People were pretty friendly in there. The hotel is the furthest from the 'town' but the closest to the ski lift and to the 'sulfurous' onsen. The ski lift is about 50 metres from the hotel and the ride up and down is spectacular. I thought the onsen was top notch. The sulfurous onsen outside has milky water that is supposed to be good for your complexion. It was fun having an onsen with snow all around. We stayed in the Western style room - it was spacious and well appointed. Our little lounge area had a beautiful view of pine trees and lots of snow. There was also a similar view from the luxurious bath tub (but I didn't use that tub as the onsen was so good.) The beds in our room were very hard. Our room also had a massage chair which I used for hours a time. It was a bit of a trek getting to Mt Zao. The hotel staff weren't very helpful with organising buses but they did drop us off at the bus stop early in the morning and we were picked up on our day of arrival. I know that the staff weren't friendly to us because of the language barrier, which is a shame because everyone should enjoy this venue. I would stay here again for sure. Next time we'll book the dinner set. It did smell amazing ! --

We spent 2 nights at the Hotel. Location was convenient, very near to the bus station (maybe 5mins walk) and gondola to the top. With the help from the information counter at bus station, we were pick up and dropped by the hotel transport which was great during winter. Room we stay was tradition Japanese style (floor beds). Toilet was very small though. Quite old hotel but well maintained. Dinner was great 👍🏻
