Mercure Miyagi Zao Resort & Spa ★★★★

"The facilities were well-equipped. The lounge was nice, and the souvenir shop was also spacious and good. It was helpful to have cold and hot drinking water on each floor. The hot springs were also spacious and great. It's a shame the pillows were too soft and sank too much."

Chikusenso Onsen ★★★★★

"I visited this inn with my elderly mother, wanting to enjoy New Year's at the inn. All the staff were white-haired gentlemen, and everything they did was smart and kind, and I was impressed by their warm hospitality. The New Year's food was also very colorfully presented and delicious, and the composition of the food and the use of the dishes were wonderful. We had a peaceful and enjoyable New Year's. It was an inn that I would like to visit again in a different month."

Bardenya Soho ★★★

"Actually, I didn't stay overnight because I was in a rush, but I heard this place is pretty good, and I'd book it again next time if I have the chance. The reason I booked the wrong place was because the address was too far away, meaning I couldn't get there."

Hoshiakari No Yado Mahoroba ★★★

"Very nice room with private bath! It would be even better if can adjust onsen water temperature (too hot) so can enjoy more fully. Food is good too, stay for 2-nights and menu is different. Would consider to come back next time!"

Kappa No Yado Ryokan Sanjiro ★★★

"It's been a while since I last visited Togatta Onsen. It was a relaxing trip for four adults. Many of the hotel staff are elderly, and the hotel has a spacious, relaxing atmosphere. We stayed in the recently renovated West Wing. The room was spacious, a twin room, but the bed was very large, with a Japanese-style space and sofa, making it very comfortable. There were two large baths, offering different views. As a special perk for the renovation, we were able to use the private hinoki and forest baths for free, making for a very pleasant hot spring trip. We thoroughly enjoyed the unique flavors of Zao, both dinner and breakfast. We were offered complimentary sparkling wine from 7:30 to 10:00 in the evening, which was delicious. Before breakfast, we were served delicious Japanese tea, which impressed us with the attentive hospitality. There were many kappa-themed ornaments, which were fun to look at. The hotel is located on a slightly elevated area, offering beautiful views of the Zao mountain range."

chillout glamping zao ★★★★

"The staff are very polite and have a very good service attitude. It’s just that the weather is too cold, and if you have children with you, it’s a bit inconvenient to go to the public restroom or bathroom."

Yutomori Club ★★★

"The hotel has no elevator. It is very inconvenient to get luggage up and down during the ski season. They say the elevator is under repair, but in fact they are just rebuilding it. There was basically no explanation for children when they checked in, and they were charged the same fee as adults. It was very unreasonable. The butler of Ctrip helped to deal with the problem very patiently, but I felt that the hotel was perfunctory in response. It was disappointing. I will not choose to stay in this hotel in the future. But thank the butler of Ctrip for their patient coordination again."
