Excellent stay in a great hotel with good breakfast, good beds and comfortable room.
We stayed over three nights for skiing in Appi Kogen and with a car in the parking tower.
A good start of the day with a great breakfast buffet, and then an hour drive to the ski resort, Appi Kogen. In the afternoon after return, and dinner in walking distance from the hotel. We enjoyed evening in the room with chrome cast and we streamed our own Netflix movies.
Great hotel and an excellent location for someone that wants the best of two worlds, skiing and city life!
I chose this hotel for a short stay in Morioka and specifically needed on-site parking, which it delivers conveniently within the same building.
The rooms are clean and feel noticeably more luxurious compared to many older hotels in Japan. The interior finishes are modern, well maintained, and immediately give a sense of quality. The lobby is spacious and welcoming, making arrival and check-in comfortable rather than cramped.
Overall, this is a practical and well-executed choice for travelers who need parking without compromising on room quality or comfort.
I stayed here for three nights and had a great experience! The location is directly opposite Morioka Station; you can see the building as soon as you exit the station. There's also an underground passage leading right to the hotel entrance, so you don't have to walk far even on snowy days. Right outside the hotel, there's a Lawson and a Matsuya, and it's very close to several famous restaurants near the station.
My room this time was on the highest floor, the eighteenth, with a view overlooking Morioka Station. The room included shampoo, body wash, etc. Other amenities were available for self-service in the lobby downstairs, with a wide variety, many of which were from POLA. There was also a multi-charger in the drawer, which was very convenient. I didn't take photos of the room's interior, but it looked pretty much like the booking pictures.
The breakfast was abundant. Besides the usual items, there were also various Morioka-specialty noodles to try. If you don't use your breakfast voucher, you can exchange it at the front desk for a boxed pastry to take away, which is a thoughtful touch.
The experience was superb! The onsen was good and relaxing. I love that they provide yogurt drink and ice lolly. There is also complimentary soba noodles at 9:30pm. What is more important is that they have free laundry and that the status of the machines can be viewed on TV!
Would definitely stay again!
Location: Right next to the station, and the bus stop for Kagura Ski Resort is right outside the door.
Environment: Clean and the bed was comfortable.
Amenities: They have a large public bath, and self-service luggage storage after check-out.
Value: Great value for money, no complaints so far!
This was my second stay, and the autumn scenery is even more beautiful than in summer! The hotel's environment, service, and food are all excellent. We stayed two nights, and the dinners were different. The second night's dinner was so lavish, I couldn't finish it all even though I was stuffed. The breakfast buffet was also superb. The hotel staff are all very friendly and can help you call a taxi. The hotel has many hot springs, and the water quality is excellent. The only pity is that the semi-open-air hot spring now has glass windows installed, so you can't properly enjoy the autumn scenery outside, and it feels a bit stuffy. The mixed-gender bath has the most beautiful views, and from 8 PM to 9 PM, it's reserved for ladies. It would be perfect if they could also arrange an hour for ladies during the daytime, as the daytime scenery is even better, and ladies might feel more comfortable in a mixed-gender bath during those hours. I'll definitely stay at this hotel again if I get the chance.
All well. The car park entrance is a bit hard to find if you’re driving but very convenient if you are using the train. Close to a observation desk near the train station
The hotel is conveniently located about a 15-minute walk from Morioka Station, but it can be a bit tiring to walk if you have a lot of luggage or luggage, or if it rains.
There are many 24-hour convenience stores, restaurants, and coffee shops nearby, making it very convenient.
As a major brand hotel, the facilities are a bit dated, but they are well-maintained, ensuring a comfortable stay.
For business travelers, the hotel offers great value for money when discounts are available, resulting in a high level of satisfaction.
On the downside, there are many bars and entertainment venues nearby, resulting in significant noise at night from drunken patrons.
This can make for a difficult night's sleep for business travelers who prefer a quiet environment.
The shower and toilet facilities are a bit dated, but the shower water pressure is good and well-maintained.
I had visited Momijikan on a day trip to the onsen before and loved it. This time, my boyfriend and I booked a great value room (randomly assigned) and were given a tatami room.
We got up early to see the sunrise over the snow-covered ground – the view was beautiful.
We asked the front desk to book a shuttle bus for the next day the night before, so we could go directly to JR Hanamaki Station after check-out – very convenient.
The breakfast selection was extensive and delicious – I highly recommend choosing a hotel with breakfast included when booking!
Special mention
The full name of the hotel is Yamanokami Onsen Villa Seiryukan (SeRyuKan)
The reason for this is that Yamanokami Onsen has 3 hot spring facilities:
The ordinary Japanese hot spring hotel Yamanokami Onsen YukaYin
The daytime hot spring hotel Nagomi
The last one is Villa Seiryukan
Take the right exit from the west exit of Shin-Hanamaki Station on the Shinkansen Line. There will be a free hot spring shuttle bus, which will depart from Platform 2 at 15:10, 16:10 and 17:10 respectively. The driver will hold a sign and ask you which hotel you are going to. Just point to Seiryukan.
At other times, you must take a taxi to the hotel, and the standard fare is less than 8,000 yen.
The shuttle bus will take passengers to Yuxiangyuan, where they will wait for the staff to arrange for them to take a minivan to the Qingliu-kan lobby on the other side to complete the check-in procedures.
When checking out, the free shuttle bus will arrive in front of Yuxiangyuan at 10:00 am or before. Guests need to check out from Qingliu-kan before 9:30 am and take a minivan to Yuxiangyuan to wait for the bus.
The bus arrives at Shin-Hanamaki Station at around 10:45. Please be sure to pay attention to the Shinkansen and airport arrival times. For example, it is impossible to catch the 10:20 Shinkansen back to Tokyo, but the Shinkansen only stops at Shin-Hanamaki Station once an hour.
The hotel's dining time starts at 6pm and breakfast starts at 7am. Whether dining at Qingliukan or Youxiangyuan, you need to make a reservation one day in advance with the help of Qingliukan staff, and they will inform you of the relevant fees. If you choose to stay overnight without breakfast or dinner, please be aware that among the three hot spring hotels, only the reception of Yukaen provides microwave fried rice and pasta, which costs 800 yen per serving.

GGuest UserIt’s a hotel located about midway between Morioka Station and the castle ruins park, with an arcade shopping street nearby and many places to eat. Most tourist spots are within about one kilometer. The interior of the hotel is old, and at times the voices of other guests echoed and felt noisy
But it is still good hotel to stay
GGuest UserThe location is beautiful and the views from the car park assured us we had chosen well. Check in was helpful and all facilities were fully explained at this time, allowing us to book our dining time.
The room was comfortable and traditional; the view, amazing! With an afternoon of sunshine, time was taken to enjoy the view in a temperature controlled setting. There was a beautiful tea set and tea provided along with some complementary snacks and water. The toiletries provided were lovely and I shall certainly be looking to purchase these for my home.
Dinner was a Chinese style buffet, with an excellent selection of dishes. Barbecues for the table and delicious sashimi and hand prepared sushi. Soups, stews, salad and more! To follow was an assortment of cakes and ice creams. Staff were very helpful and polite and the food was filling and delicious. We then retired to the hotel bar where we were again greeted by a lovely member of staff.
Upon return to our room, futons had been prepared and the room made ready for sleep. These were surprisingly comfortable.
Breakfast was also delicious with a huge array of dishes to choose from. Check out was simple and staff were helpful and polite.
I will definitely be returning!

JJiangchuanmaijiuThe hotel is located directly opposite the red circle at Morioka Station's South Exit. You can't get there directly, so you'll need to go around it to the right (it's farther to the left).
Morioka Station has many self-service luggage lockers, which is very convenient.
The hotel is quite convenient, and the free breakfast is satisfying, but the elevator wait can be difficult during the morning hours.
MMissCDThe best ski in and ski out and Onsen hotel in Japan so far!
We loved the hotel so much in Oct 2025 so we rebooked and came again from Dec 20-24, 2025.
1. Very convenient for ski experience. Ski in and ski out. Ski rental and ski coach school are just besides hotel. Good experience for rentals and coaches hiring.
2. Breakfast and dinner buffets are great and so yummy! The food does change every night to give you diversified variation to choose from. Very delicate food preparations by great chefs so don’t worry you will never get bored.
3. Onsen is also great great great! Great view and women and men get alternate the hot spring pool everyday.
4. First floor relaxing area is great great! You have self service bar of juice / soda / coffee and popsicles.
5. The hotel staffs are so nice and make you feel at home. Motoyo-San is extremely friendly and her English is so fluent!!! We were very lucky to have her help out during our stay.
6. 3rd floor is newly renovated so pls try this beautiful room next time!
Highly recommend!!!! Great for family and couple trips!
GGuest UserThe Resort location can easily access the Appi Kogen slope and rentals. Hotel is generally good but some details could be improved; such as providing towels in the onsen, increase the number of washing machines and dryers.
Food options within the hotel is limited. The best part is the sake tasting for 100¥
LLanie KirklandA group of four of us booked a cabin on a whim, and I’m so happy we did!! We did a two-day ski trip to Geto Kogen, and I cannot stress enough how convenient these cabins were to the resort itself. We stayed overnight in between two days at the resort. The drive up to the resort was less than 20 minutes. The cabin itself was super cozy, so comfortable, had great amenities for the short time we were there, and the staff were so kind and helpful. Everything was very clean, the heater was already on when we arrived, which was a very thoughtful touch, and we were able to hang all our snow gear to dry thanks to the copious amounts of hangars available. We felt it was a crazy good deal based on the price, location, and availability to book it just a few days in advance. We will definitely be back in the summer to use the grill and go golfing at the country club!
DDevI stayed at this place during my hike through the Michinoku coastal trail. This is a good choice before you attempt Kurosakiso and Kitayamazaki coast. This can be reached easily from Horinai station. Cross the big bridge and walk a bit more, you can see the sign to the left. The hotel has nice indoor and outdoor onsen. Many locals come here to use the onsen. They probably have annual or life membership to use the onsen. It is a nice opportunity to chat with some of them. When I was there, it was raining and hence I could not enjoy the view, however, using onsen after hiking in the rain was quite relaxing. On a clear day, the ocean can be seen from the room window. Dinner can be ordered and is quite good at a reasonable price. The next day, the hotel shuttle dropped me to the train station which was quite nice, I did not have to walk in rain.
JJohan KvalheimExcellent stay in a great hotel with good breakfast, good beds and comfortable room.

HHr waSelf-driving car ありで utilization. Parking lot は no material.
It is a small hotel, but there are a number of rooms or more parking lots, so it seems that you cannot park your car.
A system where you can give a card key at check-in and put it in a box when you go out and leave it as it is. You don't need to leave it at the front desk when you go out. Simple but no trouble.
It is a little far from the nearest Ichinoseki station and the downtown area in front of the station (?), but it is a distance that cannot be walked. Is it a little closer from the east exit? It seems to be within the taxi first ride fare range.
There are seven eleven and drug stores (food super type goods) within 3 minutes walk of the inn, and there is no particular inconvenience in shopping.
The room doesn't feel that big, but it has everything you need to stay as a business and it's a good impression. There is no particular concern about beds and bedding.
WIFI speed is no problem, and the sound of other rooms is not particularly heard and comfortable. Best environment if you don't ask for excessive service.
Free breakfast is a system that takes bread, small bowls, yogurt (Danon), and beverages by yourself. It's simple, but if you don't need ”guts from the morning!”, you can even feel that it's just right.
The price is the lowest among the hotels near ichinoseki station, and there is no shortage of service if it is a business use with a car.
I think it will be a good choice for those who do not ask for extra service for accommodation.
Personally I was able to stay comfortably.
