Kitakami hoteles

Ventajas: good onsen (hot springs) quality, good meal, good location

Ventajas: We chose the dinner and breakfast option. Both were beautiful and plentiful. The staff were all excellent and outstanding. Everything was scenic and relaxing.

Desventajas: Somewhat expensive but definitely worth it.

Ventajas: great service and atmosphere

Desventajas: great service

Ventajas: Food and hospitality were outstanding. Minor details considered and for non Japanese speaking, still easy to communicate. So close to airport that makes a very easy weekend get away.

Desventajas: An additional outdoor onsen pool would have been nice.

Ventajas: A special treat; very good dinner and breakfast, a very nice room with futon beds and your own privaye bath looking into the woods

Desventajas: A bit of remote location but the shuttle bus is quite frequent.

Ventajas: Meals were excellent :D

Desventajas: Could have had a private onsen for couples :)

Ventajas: Beautiful room, comfortable beds, delicious food in our own private dining room, lovely onsen. Difficult to find fault!

Desventajas: The ryokan itself was really lovely. Great for an overnight stop. I'm not sure I'd stay around for longer in the area.

Ventajas: onsen

Desventajas: access

Ventajas: Nice staff and breakfast

Ventajas: onsen is really satisfied

Desventajas: none

Ventajas: The garden that surrounds the property is really charming and well maintained, also the food was exquisite and full of local tastes.

Desventajas: Maybe the futon of the room. Although the quality of the futon tends to be a standard aspect, the thickness and texture might be an aspect to improve, especially for people like us that are not used to sleep in Futon. Also when we turn on the air-conditioned, there was a strange smell coming out.

Ventajas: Although the staff didn't speak good English, she still tried her best to provide us everything we need. And also, the onsen is pretty nice! Will highly recommend my friend to stay here.

Ventajas: Good Onsen Facilities - though confusing so many different baths! Dinner was served even for our group in a central facility. Partly ready at table, some buffet service. Breakfast was buffet, was OK.

Desventajas: Dissapointing Ryokan experience... for someone who has been to many. (those in group who this was first Ryokan thought it was excellent). Rooms much smaller than comparable Ryokan (6 tatami for 4 people for example). Long shuttle bus ride to the Ryokan, but it was far from the JR station. I had problems with my room that the staff could not resolve (there was no language problem, but they just shook their head and waited for me to just pay and leave).

Ventajas: Free shuttle to the train station was great. Front desk was very helpful with directions for meals and traveling. Good English support.

Desventajas: The address was incorrect from Booking.com on GPS. We spent over an hour trying to find the correct address.

Ventajas: Staff were helpful and friendly

Desventajas: The carpet was stained and room had a musty smell. The hotel is not in a good area.

Ventajas: Thanks for the kindly help of hotel staff!! We lost our WiFi pocket on train, the girl help us to find it and very sweet to print the map let us to find it easier. I will recommend it and hope to reserve it in the future. All of the staff here are full of passion!

Desventajas: Public time for female is really short and the time is bad

Ventajas: Hotel is quite a fair way from the station, so booking a shuttle with the hotel is a must for transporting luggage. Other than moving our luggage to and from the station when we arrived and departed, we walked everywhere. It's a small and quiet town in general, but this part of town is exceptionally quiet though there are some family restaurants around. There are also free bike rentals but we didn't use them as it rained the whole time. Staff were friendly and the coin laundry was very helpful.

Desventajas: The bottom floors are smoking rooms and the top floors are non-smoking rooms, and the elevator smelled terribly of cigarettes. We didn't use the onsen baths but it seems there's only one and there's a schedule of when females can use it and when males can use it (females are restricted to only a few days which is quite unfair!). The hotel and rooms are looking a bit old, and the room was surprisingly small considering it wasn't in an urban town or central location.

Ventajas: Staff are pleasant and accommodating.Foods are healthy and delicious. The location is very good because it is near in the city center. Free shuttle is a plus and the free bicyle was just so amazing because it allows the visitors to roam around the city. I just love motein hotel.

Desventajas: Mr. waiter in the food area was so pitiful. His sweat was running down in his face while serving the foods but that's not the problem anyway. I'm so amazed how hard working he is and it broke my heart that he was alone serving in that very busy environment. I gues the hotel should and probly would add some staff to accompany him in serving the customers I mean helping him in refilling the foods rather.

Ventajas: Free shuttle service to Kitakami station. Staff were very kind and the onsen facility was super.

Desventajas: Just for your information: Only one Onsen. At weekdays no Onsen for ladies. :(

Ventajas: Spacious room overlooking river. Very good dinner and breakfast buffets. Shuttle service to and from the train station made it very convenient. There was a mix up with our room plan, but Tohru (gentleman checking us in) did a great job of solving the issue.

Desventajas: -------

Ventajas: The location was good for our plan

Desventajas: Everything

Ventajas: it's one of the best onsen hotels in Japan! My room had river and mountain-forest view! it was so relaxing! I recommend this hotel for all occasions (honeymooners, explorers, chill out, onsen experience, etc.).

Desventajas: I drove to this hotel so there wasn't any English signs showing where the hotel was and even there was no English in the hotel's name-sign. I was just driving in circles with google maps trying to know which building the hotel was.

Ventajas: Buffet dinner exceeds expectation. It is rich of choices comparable to any 6-star hotels. Taking the half board room package is highly recommended.

Ventajas: I was exceptionally happy with my stay here, upon calling to book my place on the shuttle and explaining that I didn't speak much Japanese, the hotel arranged for an English speaking member of staff to meet me when I arrived. I was then helped through the check in process, guided to my room and given advice on some of the local attractions that I might want to visit. When I had decided what I wished to do the next morning transportation to the station was provided for me. I ate at both the buffet style restaurant and the Japanese Pub and both were delicious. The hotel offers many facilities but the main attraction for me was the hot springs. There are a range of different style of baths, split over two floors, which alternate male and female each day and were a fantastic way to relax after a long day of exploring Japan. Overall this hotel exceeded my expectations for hospitality and customer service and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Desventajas: As with many hot spring resorts I visited during my time in Tohoku, the only real downside is that as a solo traveler with no car, it can be a little difficult to reach, however the hotel offers a free shuttle from Hanamaki and Shin-Hanamaki stations, which greatly reduces this issue.

Ventajas: Very nice japanese style rooms. Very friendly staff. Very relaxing hot springs. Would go again.

Desventajas: Rather short time windows in which you can go for dinner.

Ventajas: Close to highway and easy access by car. Very nicely furnished with exquisite taste with natural decor, lovely and helpful staff and good restaurant.

Desventajas: The room was a bit small (I got a twin room) and would have been quite cramped for 2 people. Otherwise everything was lovely

Ventajas: Staff is nice. Onsei is free.

Desventajas: Location is inconvenient.

Ventajas: The staff were extremely welcoming and helpful. The food was simple but tasty and made with very fresh ingredients. It is convenient to have the onsen next door and connected to the hotel. On the whole, this was very good value for money.

Desventajas: The bathroom was very small, but we used the nearby onsen so that was okay.

Desventajas: The staff understand little english. The room has heater / warmer, no heater. In spring is a bit warm, can’t imagine during summer.

Ventajas: Location at the river

Desventajas: The style is somewhat outdated, very slow WIFI.

Ventajas: the location is great, very close to the east exit of the Kitakami station, and walk only 5-10 mins. we got the room facing the river, so it's very beautiful when you're looking out esp if it's Spring, there'll be Sakura all over the places. The room is equipped with all of the things you need. we haven't had breakfast there, but it looks very nice from the ad in the hotel :-)

Desventajas: The Wifi in our room was very poor it often dropped out as the signal strength was very low. Seems there was only one access point on our level (8).

Ventajas: Close to the Cherry Festival, it is the only reason to stay at this place.

Desventajas: No porter to carry your bags. The staff was indifferent. Showed up at the restauraunt after traveling for ten hours, fifteen minutes before close and they wouldn't let us in to eat because they were closing in fifteen minutes. The taxi driver that was sitting at the hotel in the morning would rather read his comic book and wouldn't take us to the train station.

Ventajas: Handy location not too far from Geto ski fields. Easy access to parking below the hotel. Nice river views.

Desventajas: Breakfast food and eating room atmosphere way ordinary. Beds and pillows were hard.

Ventajas: Well-equipped large room at the good price. Rich euro-style breakfast. If you there for cherry blossom festival - the festival ferry stops just 2 minutes walk from the hotel. Railway station situated about 8-10 minutes walk. Nice staff. They can keep your luggage before check-in and after check-out.

Ventajas: None

Desventajas: Food,service

Ventajas: It was very clean

Desventajas: No juice at breakfast?? I saw something white looking like milk, and apple vinegar???

Desventajas: Nothing.

Desventajas: There was no natto for breakfast.

Ventajas: Right in front of JR station

Ventajas: The Hotel is located right in front of Kitakami station and Lawson is just behind it. Kitakami river is within 5 minutes walking distance and you can take the boat ride to cross the river to Tenshochi Park.

Ventajas: I like the location which near to Kitakami JR station. The facility such as washing n dryer were good and we had used them and fiund to be easy n inexpensive.

Desventajas: Location and faciliries.

Ventajas: This was the best hotel we stayed during our last nine days spring trip to Japan. Check in and check out were smooth and the staff were humble. Room was of decent size at that price and the facilities were also fine. The hotel is located some five minutes walk away from the Kitakami station west exit. Tensochi park is at walk-able distance away from the hotel.

Ventajas: The hotel was clean and tidy. Everything is fit for purpose. Kitakami is not a busy district , so the hotel is not grand or modern but fits our expectation as a siimple, clean, tidy and affordable one.

Ventajas: Good location near Kitakami station . Helpful and friendly staff and a decent buffet breakfast.

Ventajas: Good fast WiFi internet in the room. The breakfast was well stocked and the staff were polite and friendly. There was also plenty of free parking. The hotel was next to Hanamaki Airport but it was very quiet and clean.

Desventajas: The bed was a bit too hard and the pillow was too small and hard. It is the type with beans inside and was not comfortable at all. Although the room size was average for a business type hotel, the bathroom was a bit smaller than expected. The LAN cable did not connect my laptop to the Internet and was useless.
