    Central location Free Popsicles

    We are a family of 3 and we checked in at 4pm and requested for a family onsen private bath but was told that it was booked weeks ago but we were never told we need to book at the first place! It’s an onsen hotel - it’s expected that there is at least a restaurant inside the hotel but none is open. Breakfast is pathetic - they even ran out of butter. Definitely not recommended

    The location was great, being right on the lake.

    The lack of regular meals was a problem, made worse by the fact that restaurants are closed early there.

    Property response:

    Thank you very much for staying with us. We are glad to hear that you enjoyed the location right by the lake. However, we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the limited dining options. There are few restaurants nearby, and they tend to close early, which we understand can be frustrating. To address this, we are planning to open a sushi restaurant called “Sushi Ryujin” within the hotel this July. It will be open late into the night so that you can enjoy your meals without worrying about the time. We hope you will have the opportunity to visit us again and make use of this new dining option. We look forward to welcoming you again in the future.

    Awesome view to Lake Towada. The hotel is modern looking and tastefully done.

    Can’t complain much! As it is pretty secluded, will take some time to drive into. But I don’t mind! 😄

    Property response:

    Thank you very much for staying with us. We are truly delighted to hear your kind words about the beautiful scenery of Lake Towada and the modern, tasteful design of our hotel. We appreciate you taking the time to visit us, even though we are located in a rather remote area. Your comment that “it didn’t bother you at all” means a lot to us and is truly encouraging. We would love to welcome you again, perhaps in a different season to enjoy another side of the lake. We look forward to seeing you again in the future.

    Our room was spacious but felt cosy, and the bed was so comfortable. We had a fantastic sleep. Location on the water was lovely too.

    Breakfast was basic but fine.

    Location is not bad. Very close to the lake.

    Breakfast has very little choice, and only paper plates and cups provided. No restaurant in the property and have to dine inside the room and makes the room smelly after.

    Only the location by the lake but didnt see the view because of the trees is blocking even I stay on the top floor (3rd floor)

    The rest is worst. You have to do everything by yourself. Checkin and also dinning. The prepared frozen food (suki or shabu) in the freeze. Seafood for shabu is not fresh. Beef suki is just ok. And you have to dine in your room which make the smell unpleasant. After that you have to move away dining table and make a bed by yourself. Water temp in your bathroom is not that hot (normal) and onsen (public bathroom) is very small compare to hotel size. Four people in the bath feel fit already. The worst part is breakfast. They only give you bread, cereal and coffee. That is it! I paid almost 60,000 yen/night for one room for two person. It is extremely overpriced! This place should consider just a hostel not hotel.

    Thank you for visiting our facility. We are sorry to hear that you could not see the view because of the tree blocking the view of the lake.

    Very good location near the JR bus station. Near the winter story festival event and fireworks (Feb 17, 2024). Nice view of the lake. Smells clean and its clean. Private shower and toilet. Many toilets outside the room. Good onsen bath.

    I don't have high expectation of the breakfast so its just okay. It's only pricey. Bread with ham, cheese, egg spread, jams, etc,create your own sandwich. Salads, cereals, milk, fruit juices etc.
