Hotellit mukavuudella Aamiainen maassa Japani, provinssissa Aomorin prefektuuri

The hotel was clean and comfortable. The location was convenient, and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall, a pleasant stay and good value for money.

Check-in was very smooth. In fact, they allowed us to check in earlier - about 1 to 2 hours earlier, I think. The room was already ready, so they allocated it to us when we arrived. The room itself was rather small but functional and clean, so we don’t really have any complaints other than it being a bit small. I guess this is Japanese standards. The pricing is fairly more expensive than the inns across the road, perhaps because of the location and also because it is very new. The property itself has a very nice onsen. The female onsen had a lot of apples floating in it, which was a very nice touch to showcase Aomori apples. The front desk staff are very nice and very friendly. They also have staff who can speak Chinese. Not that I am Chinese, but I can speak some Chinese better than Japanese, which I can’t speak at all. Nevertheless, the staff could converse in English, or at least some basic English. There’s free yoga and some classes, but we didn’t utilise them as it’s not really useful for tourists who would rather spend time outside the hotel. This seems more suited for locals who want a short getaway, but still a very lovely touch. Breakfast is paid separately and does not come with the room, so there is no comment on that. The property provides Nespresso capsules in the room, and there is also a better Nespresso machine near the check-in counter. I also love that they provide water for free without having to pay extra. The lounge is available for everybody and overlooks the bridge. They provide some free snacks and drinks depending on the timing - different items in the morning and in the evening. That being said, there is no alcohol being served. Also, the coffee there is very bad. I don’t understand why they don’t put the Nespresso machine in the lounge since they have one at the lobby. Overall, everything was quite perfect for this hotel. In fact, the location was the most perfect part. Once you exit the train station, you enter an elevator that goes up to the hotel. Since it was winter, I was afraid I would need to drag my bags for a long time, but it’s right outside the exit after you tap your card and turn left. If I remember correctly, the elevator is right there and there is no need to go outside at all. However, there are only two elevators servicing the entire building, so there might be some waiting time. I would advise leaving earlier if you have a train to catch. The only reason this is not a full-star review is because I requested about a one-hour late checkout due to our train time, and they told us we needed to pay - if I remember correctly, ¥2,000 per hour. I felt they were very rigid about the 11 am checkout time. To be honest, even if they had given it to us, we probably wouldn’t have used it anyway, as we later decided to change our train time to leave Aomori, since there isn’t much to do here. Still, the rejection and inflexibility made us feel very uneasy and unwelcome. I think they could have handled this better by being less rigid and more human. So that’s minus points from us. After all, this is part of hospitality, and it doesn’t hurt.

Super close to the train station. Very clean, great breakfast with local options. There was a welcome drink and a lot of books to read (if you know Japanese).

The room was really big for a japan hotel. it was the biggest room we had throughout our 13 days trip. There is a bathtub which i enjoyed daily, with the free bath salts which are provided at the lobby. The staff are friendly and do their best to understand and help us out. We experienced earthquake during our stay, but the building held up. there is a lawson right beside the hotel which is very convenient. The train station is also within 10 minutes walk with mostly covered walkways towards the hotel.

Lensimme Aomorin lentokentälle ANA-koneella. Hotellille pääsee ottamalla Aomorin lentokenttäbussin kohti Aomorin asemaa ja jäämällä pois Odorin asemalla (kolmanneksi viimeinen pysäkki). Hotelli on vain lyhyen kävelymatkan päässä bussipysäkiltä. Hotellissa on täydelliset ja suhteellisen uudet saniteettitilat, ja palvelu on lämmintä ja vastaanottavaista. Hotellissa on onsen (kuuma lähde), josta voi nauttia ilmaiseksi joka päivä, ja klo 21.30 jälkeen on myös ilmainen ramen-välipala. Ainoa parannettavaa on, että tyynyt ovat hieman kovat, mikä on hieman epätavallista. Olisi täydellistä, jos valittavana olisi yksi kova ja yksi pehmeä tyyny.

We stayed at the Japanese Style Tatami room for our time at Hirosaki. Location was near Hirosaki Castle Park and not too far away from Hirosaki JR station. There were local bus stops located nearby the hotel - the hotel also provided a free shuttle bus service from the hotel to Hirosaki Station (one way only service, so you still got to find your own way to the hotel when you arrive), just got to inform the front desk at least 1 day in advance.  Room was clean and had a good view of Hirosaki city, free flow of Apple Juice and coffee at the lobby downstairs was a plus.

Room is clean and spacious. There is free water dispenser every floor, you can try Aomori apple juice at the hotel. I love the idea that you can choose the cleaning or not cleaning on the television. You can also see the status of the laundry on the television. The location is abit far from Aomori station but I think it’s okay. There is a direct bus from Aomori airport to the hotel. There is a convenience store nearby.

Experiencing a nice Japanese style hotel stay is truly a unique experience. The great facilities offered within such a setting usually enhance the overall experience. Traditional aesthetics often create a calming atmosphere, promoting relaxation and tranquility. Furthermore, these accommodations frequently provide exceptional service, ensuring a comfortable visit. Ultimately, the fusion of comfort and culture makes for a memorable trip.

The room in general is clean although the white curtain has holes and the shower curtain is a bit ripped. There are some molds under the sink. The soap and conditioner ate not so good. We asked for some facial soap and moisturizer, the staff said those things ate only available depending on the room type. How come other affordable business hotel chains provide those things?! I was expecting that this hotel has better service since they collaborate with Nikko Hotels, but to be fair, the restaurant staffs are kind.

Very happy with the location of the hotel. It’s unbeatable, right next to the station. The price also includes breakfast which is a nice touch. The attractions nearby are walkable distance
