Daiwa Roynet Hotel Aomori

I've always been a fan of the Daiwa Roynet brand, and I make it a point to stay at one of their hotels whenever I travel. Their drip coffee is fantastic; brewing a cup every morning really gives me a boost. This particular location in Aomori has a very modern design and is super close to the station, with plenty of restaurants nearby – incredibly convenient! Plus, the bathroom and shower here are especially spacious, which is a big plus.

The room size is good, and it has its own private bathroom. This is my second time staying here, and it's very nice. I recommend it.

The front desk is on the second floor, and the entrance is a bit hidden, so it's easy to miss. It's also a bit far from Aomori Station, which made dragging luggage through the snow quite difficult. The room was quite spacious, and the separate wet and dry areas in the bathroom were a definite plus.

This hotel is located on Aomori's main street, about a 5-10 minute walk from the JR station. I checked in around 10 PM that night, and the front desk staff was incredibly nice and helpful. They meticulously explained the breakfast and check-out times, as well as the room cleaning schedule. Communication in English was seamless. The room size was quite large for Japan, and the twin beds could be pushed together. There's a Lawson convenience store downstairs, perfect for grabbing discounted rice balls and bentos every evening. The main street below the hotel also offers a wide variety of dining options, almost all of which are excellent. Most restaurants require reservations, but a little tip is to go around 5 PM to potentially snag a table without one. I wouldn't recommend the hotel breakfast, and frankly, I don't recommend any hotel breakfast in Japan compared to China due to the limited selection. The latest entry for breakfast is 9:30 AM, with food starting to be cleared at 9:45 AM and finishing at 10 AM – the meticulousness of the Japanese is something I just can't get used to! Later on, because we couldn't wake up early and didn't enjoy the food, we opted for convenience store rice balls and oden instead. However, the restaurant staff were still very friendly and professional. In conclusion, it's a bit of a walk from the JR station, but not too far. The price is on the higher side, but the room is relatively spacious for Japan, and the service is a big plus. I would definitely choose this hotel again if I return to Aomori.

This hotel is a good choice near Aomori Station, considering room size, price, and proximity to the station. It's very family-friendly, and the bathroom is also quite spacious.
