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!
When you stay at bon-yado U in Ugo, you'll be within a 10-minute drive of Komachi Peony Root Garden and Kimura Sake Brewery. This country house is 5.4 mi (8.6 km) from Suzuki House and 8.7 mi (14 km) from Asamai Park.
Make use of convenient amenities such as complimentary wireless internet access, concierge services, and a communal living room.
A complimentary local cuisine breakfast is served daily from 7:00 AM to 10:00 AM.
Featured amenities include multilingual staff and luggage storage. Free self parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 4 individually decorated guestrooms. Your memory foam bed comes with down comforters. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include complimentary bottled water, and housekeeping is provided daily.
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
Akita Castle Hotel exceeds expectations! Not only is the hotel itself a stunning gem, but the staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. Their warm hospitality makes you feel right at home. Kudos to the team for providing exceptional service and making our stay truly unforgettable!
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.
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!
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.
In the summer, other open-air baths may have insects such as abu flying, but there were no insects in the hot springs here. Also, dinner and breakfast were delicious, especially meat for dinner, vegetables and * for breakfast, and coffee were excellent.
When I checked in, the whole space echoed the single sound of the tuner tuning the piano. Sure enough, the evening was a concert once a month.
We enjoyed the night with other guests.
The Japanese drama is not deceiving me, this is what happens in life.
Breakfast is a Japanese set meal, self-grown, pickled, pickled side dishes with rice balls (Akita rice is really delicious)
Dinner is different every night. Surprise from the previous dish.
Together, together, together, together, even dessert ice cream is homemade (Akita people are really capable of hands-on) cost-effective to be touching
Last night, I opened the door and played the movie. The familiar sound of the film was the king of the circus!
It was snowing so heavily that it was a life moment.
I have always said that I am going back to Akita's hometown for the past year. It was just a joke because living here has become so figurative.
Amazing

DDellI 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.
