Location, Breakfast and Price

Hotel is right in front of Yamagata JR Station. The Japanese buffet breakfast is great. Staff is welcoming and friendly, and get things done very quickly. Their indoor restaurant serves decent meals at reasonable prices. Shopping is within minutes walk, and a 24 hours supermarket is just at the backyard of the hotel. Yamagata City is a good base to explore the prefecture, with Yamadera 20mins away by train, Ginzan Onsen about 90mins away via train/bus, and Zao Onsen 60mins via bus. Great city!

Excellent location

In less than 5 minutes one can reach the hotel right after getting off from JR trains. Besides visiting the castle and museums in Yamagata, one can go sight-seeing in nearby areas. The best choice is Zao where one can see trees covered with thick snow during winter. (It takes less than an hour from yamagata JR station to Zao.) Kaminoyama is another good choice for sightseeing and it takes less than 20 minutes from Yamagata to there by JR trains.

We were so pleasantly surprised by the close proximity to the train station,it took us less than 5min to walk to the hotel. Staff was polite and friendly, room was clean and quiet even though we were facing the train station. We enjoyed the public bath on the 14th floor and had a nice soak after a long day of touring. Was expecting only a continental style breakfast, but was surprised to see a full buffet with both Japanese and Western breakfast foods. All this for less than $100 for two people, an exceptional value.
