This is a highly recommended and convenient hotel right in Morioka. The location is perfect: it's situated directly across from the train station, easily accessible via the underground walkway. It's also near Kaiunbashi, one of Morioka's signature spots, offering a great scenic view. For ultimate convenience, there's a 7-Eleven located right on the ground floor of the hotel.
Beyond the location, the staff are very nice and incredibly helpful. The lobby provides an impressive array of amenities, more generous than many hotels I've visited. The room size is comfortable, and the bathroom is spacious, meeting the excellent standards of the Daiwa Roynet brand.
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.
The room size is quite spacious for Japan; there's plenty of room for two 20-inch suitcases. Free toiletries are available on the first floor, including bath salts, face masks, facial cleanser, and lotion samples. The room also comes with a comfortable yukata. Breakfast is very generous, featuring local specialty Kougen milk (the hard-to-find glass bottle version), and the hotel's homemade grape-flavored milk jam is also worth a try. The hotel is connected to a convenience store on the first floor, and you can enter the hotel from Lawson using your room card (especially convenient on snowy days as the road facing the hotel's main entrance is less accessible than the convenience store's entrance). It's right opposite Morioka Station, and you can walk to Kaiun Bridge in a few minutes. From Kaiun Bridge, you get a superb view of Mount Iwate.
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!
This place is super clean, convenient and new. King beds are more like Queen sized beds. The restaurant food at night is pretty decent and well priced. The breakfast Buffett is mediocre and wouldn’t really recommend. Staff were good. Onsen is nice to have. I used to stay at comfort inn and Toyoko inn, but I’ll pay a bit more and go for Sakura next time I am in Kitakami
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.
Overall very good place but a little difficult to find without maps because the sign on the front is not very big nor well lit. also the main entrance is not where you expect it but below ground level.
I absolutely loved this hotel!
The rooms were huge!
Although there are two rooms in Morioka, we initially went to the wrong one,
but the staff were very kind and helpful in guiding us. The room even had a microwave and a large refrigerator,
but unfortunately, we didn't get to use them.
The pick-up bus at Shin Hanamaki Station at 3 o'clock was very punctual, and the driver did not take out the list to check, so I felt that there was no need to make an appointment. The time for the drop-off station does need to be reserved, and it will be checked when getting on the bus.
The snow view outside the room window is beautiful, but there is nothing around the hotel. It feels like a remote hotel group that specializes in receiving ********* groups. A drugstore at the door is crowded with ********* guests at night. In the morning, the drugstore is not open after the ********* group leaves, so there is no place to go shopping.
Dinner does have unlimited long-legged crabs and steaks, and the dishes are rich but the taste is very average.
The hot spring is also quite satisfactory, with average water quality and scenery.
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.

佐佐々木光晴The breakfast buffet has a wide variety and is very satisfying. All three types of curry are delicious. The rooms and hallways are a little worn, but they are kept clean and there is plenty of hot water. It's easy to hear noises from neighboring rooms and the hallway, but considering the price, I guess that's acceptable.
GGuest UserThe location is beautiful in the national park, and it is cool and comfortable to walk. The sea view room has a great view, and you can watch the sunrise from the bed. The outdoor hot spring pool is very comfortable, the customer service staff is kind and attentive, and the meals are plentiful and delicious.
GGuest UserThe hotel is a bit away from JR Morioka Station. It is not the most convenient to go through the underground passage. Compared with the general Toyoko Hotel, there is no welcome drink or ramen at night. The breakfast is also very general. The room is small and the experience is ordinary.
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.

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.
