Hotels With Bars in Yamagata Prefecture, Japan

This hotel is about 1.5 km from Tsuruoka JR Station. The nearest bus stop is 'Science Park.' There's a direct bus from Yamagata Airport, but other bus connections are unavailable, making transportation a bit inconvenient; it's more suitable for those traveling by car. The hotel itself is newly renovated, surrounded by rice paddies, offering a beautiful and clean environment. Breakfast is a Japanese-style buffet featuring locally sourced ingredients. Dinner requires a reservation, as dining options nearby are limited to a convenience store. There are three dinner set menus, which I found a bit pricey, but the food was delicious, especially the bread and desserts. Service was, as always, attentive, and the hot spring facilities were excellent. The only downside is its relative distance from famous Tsuruoka attractions like the Dewa Sanzan mountains and Kamo Aquarium. It's also a bit far from the S-mall bus terminal and the JR station.

This ryokan-style hotel boasts a beautiful location on a snow-covered mountain, right next to a stunning ski resort. The accommodations are very convenient, featuring separate shower and toilet facilities within the room. There's also a private onsen available for a small fee, offering a wonderfully private outdoor bathing experience. The hotel provides excellent shuttle services to various destinations; you can easily request a ride to the Zao Ropeway to see the Snow Monsters, as well as to restaurants, the bus station, and more.

It’s quite a big hotel, 3 buildings are connected and there are many rooms. The rooms are a bit outdated but still maintained well. Service was good and flexible. Transportation to the village is quite necessary when the roads are covered by snow, especially with luggage. They have free shuttle bus which is great. Best parts: 1. Dinner semi-buffet has unlimited alcoholic beverages including local sake, draft beer and wines. 2. Ski & board rental shop is right outside of the hotel. Although hotel only accept cash for the lift ticket, you can rent the gear (rental shop accepts credit card) and ski down the hill (20sec) to the cable ticket counter to buy ticket, pay by credit card. The location has lifts 5,6 and cable 4

The hotel location is excellent and very convenient. The room is also very spacious and comfortable. However, one thing we were slightly disappointed with was that our request for two extra bottles of water was declined by the front desk, as they mentioned only two bottles are provided per day. We’re not sure if this is a standard policy across hotels in Japan. Overall, we were still very satisfied with our stay.

After reading the introduction of this hot spring hotel, Zaimu Sakaeya ​​Hotel was once a hotel in a logging camp and a timber wholesaler with a history of more than 100 years. The entire hot spring hotel uses a large amount of logs for decoration and construction, which is very unique. The single room I stayed in was very new and very clean. Breakfast is a set meal, and miso soup, tea, drinks, etc. are also provided. At this price, it's a great value. Since there is no shuttle bus, it takes about 15 minutes to walk from Kaminoyama Onsen Station to Zaiki Sakaeya.

The service was superb! I went to the wrong branch, and they arranged a car to take us to the correct one, saving me from walking in the heavy snow. They even helped me with my two large suitcases. The view from the window was stunning, and the hot springs were absolutely first-class. Both breakfast and dinner offered a wide variety of delicious options. The room was also very spacious.

Facilities: Average, not very new, but not bad. Hygiene: The sanitation is pretty good Environment: The town is very quiet, the snowy scenery is beautiful, and every household has a persimmon tree Service: The service needs to be improved. The guy at the front desk can hardly speak English and is not very enthusiastic, which is different from many Japanese hostels Dining: Dinner is not bad, quite rich, and the tableware is also beautiful Special praise for the free snacks and coffee in the lobby☕️

Right in front of the Sakata station  Our room is comfortable with very good panoramic Mountain View. While we staying, a space connected to the lobby there was an event selling local products such as sake, fresh produces, craft etc.  Very good breakfast Highly recommended. If you have time, Ken Domon museum of photography(just outside the city of Sakata) is a  must.

Linhai Japanese-style hot spring hotel, the beautiful proprietress will come to say hello in the morning and evening. The Bohai Sea outside the window has a beautiful view. The interior is decorated with replicas of the Terracotta Warriors and Horses shipped from Xi'an, China. The hotel has 58 rooms. It is said that most of the guests in Taiwan and South Korea. After the epidemic, there were fewer mainland guests and did not recover. The room is with Western style, tatami hall, Western style twin bed.
