This 4-star ryokan offers a lift and luggage storage space. The ryokan features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. The property and facilities were all very comfortable, clean and cosy. The staff were all exceptionally professional and helpful and good at communication. In particular, the staff were very helpful and went out of their way to help me liaise and retrieve a pair of gloves from a restaurant that I had accidentally left.

Fulsato features a hot spring bath and free private parking, and is within 16 km of Shigarai Ski Area and 44 km of Kitakami Station. The property has mountain and river views. The ryokan features family rooms. My wife & I stayed at Fulsato for one night on a Tohoku ski trip driving from Geto Kogen to Tazawako. We’ve stayed at many Ryokan on our trips to Japan and this was likely the best one. From the moment we arrived the staff was so kind and helpful. We got a room overlooking the river with our own private bath in the balcony. The other public baths were nice esp the outdoor one. The room was well thought out and immaculately clean. The best part was the food! Both the dinner and breakfast were kaiseki style and the presentation and flavors were amazing. The price was higher than we usually pay but it felt like a total value.

We were wow-ed by the service right at the moment we parked our car, a staff immediately came to gather our luggages, and then escort us to our rooms after check-in. The room was big beyond our expectation. Onsen leaves a smooth feeling skin.

Apikogen Mori no Hotel offers a sauna and a hot spring bath, as well as air-conditioned accommodation in Hachimantai, 46 km from Morioka Station. This 3-star ryokan features a spa experience, with its public bath and open-air bath. There is a restaurant serving Japanese cuisine, and free private parking is available. At first I thought that it's a family run accommodation, but it's actually not. There are 2-3 people working at the reception. It's indeed a hotel! Breakfast: great coffee, food, service, environment Lunch: no lunch. I bet most people are at the ski Dinner: 3 options (chosen by the receptionist). All with beef as the main dish. Transportation: needed to schedule the shuttle every day, e.g., when to go to the ski, when to return, when to pick up from train station, when to depart, etc. Very close to the ski resort. Less than 15 minutes on foot. Two private and one public hot spring!!!! This is really my favourite part. Beautiful place! There's an area selling cup noodles, daily necessities, and souvenir. We live in a room for 4-5 people. spacious. large window. Beautiful view. Indoor clothing provided. Great renovation and decoration. Professional staff.
