Akita hotels

Pros: The room was a generous size for a Japanese hotel. And the location is perfect for getting to the main sights and the railway station.

Cons: It is hard to find the front entrance of the hotel. It is easy to see the building from the station. When you get there, go round the building in an anti-clockwise direction. You will come to a large blue portico with Japanese writing (only). That is the entrance.

Pros: If you ever wondered what a hotel was like in the 80s and 90s, this is the place for you, and I don't mean it in a bad way. While the decor is dated and the upholstery looks like it belongs to grandma, the entire place is kept clean and efficient. Its quaint and antiquated design made for a fun night's stay. As expected of its rural location, the rooms are spacious.

There are a lot of amenity for borrow such as bicycle, nail cutting, etc. The guest room is ok. Breakfast is nice. We stayed for 2 nights. Breakfast on the second day is very delicious, I love it so much.

Cons: As this is Akita, which mainly cold during the year so the room has no air-conditioning. We stay in May so we need to open the window to get some cold weather from outside. The weather is fine but there is traffic light nearby so traffic sound for pedestrian can leak into bedroom but no so annoy.

Cons: Everything at the hotel was good

Pros: Good size room. Extremely helpful staff: did not just explain where it was but took me to the bus stop outside. Fab breakfast. Good location. Not too far from train station. Close to tourism sites etc

Pros: All is well here, but nothing really excellent.

Pros: Breakfast buffet was excellent.

Cons: It was a little difficult to find a good restaurant in the vicinity other thantraditional local restaurants that are more focused serving local people's drinking oriented style.

Pros: Breakfast was excellent and location was fine. Could have been a better view but not too important

Cons: The dinner was limited choices and small portion, but very tasty

Pros: Great location across from the castle so perfect for Sakura. Good rooms and quiet. A large hotel though and best if you only have a small car for the parking. Plenty of food in walking distance. Staff on arrival were very friendly and helpful.

Pros: Excellent hotel. Big and very comfortable room. Quiet and warm. The location is only ten minutes walking from the station and next to the museum.

Pros: The place was clean and the stuff was very kind. We loved the onsen. It's worth every penny.

Cons: Just one thing. The restaurant used very cheap one use chopsticks and I could taste the chopstick. It sounds picky but I think it makes a difference. Even cheap chain restaurants here don't use that kind of chopsticks. Other than this the hotel was just fantastic don't let this put you off.

Pros: Beautiful onsen only short distance from Akita city. Easy access by bus. Friendly staff and explained everything in details with the help of google translate. Onsen was nice especially the outdoor one. Room is big. Comfortable tatami. Good breakfast. Extremely good service.

Cons: None

Pros: It’s a great, friendly place where the staff is extremely attentive and very helpful! While nobody could speak English, we tried our best with google translate! It was a fun experience trying local culture!

Cons: The location is about 15-20 mins away from Akita Station. This isn’t normally a problem, but bus service is a bit irregular and ends at 9pm. The location itself closes at 10pm, so you must be back at the place before then or you cannot return to your room! This means even if you wanted to take a taxi after an evening taking a few beers in town, you aren’t able to. This place really is catered for only relaxing at the Onsen and isn’t the best place for wider tourist plans.

Pros: The onsen is great to relax in. The breakfast had good portion but it is japanese style.

Cons: No wifi in the room just in the lobby

Pros: Large room and rotenburo.

Cons: One hour walk from Akita station.

Pros: very friendly staff, clean and comfortable rooms, challenging shared bathroom (It is Japanese traditional culture of Japan, everyone goes into a bath together nakedly), with hot spring, sauna, and fountain with enough water pressure to be able to massage tired body.) Breakfast was good

Cons: for the upgrading of the facility, it is recommended to provide shuttle bus to take guests from hotel to Akita station back and forth

Pros: The whole immersion into japanese culture...the quality of the thermal baths and the kindness of the staff, regardless that they could only speak Japanese.

Cons: It would be good to provide transportation from Akita Station to the hotel, for sure would boost the experience....however, taking the local bus is not complicated and the walk from the bus stop to the hotel is just 2 blocks away.

Cons: Reserved a package for family with two kids on booking.com but when we arrived the hotel they told us that the package is invalid and tried to charge $60 for each kid, ended up paying about $240 instead of originally listed $140. The bath was great but it is also open to public. It was so crowded...

Pros: Great hotel, public bath is beautiful and the food delicious. Breakfast is traditional Japanese and very good! The room was amazing and maybe the most beautiful traditional Japanese we had, in the 7 weeks we were in Japan. Staff helpful and very nice.

Cons: Not a real minus. But just to mention. It’s not located in the center of Akita. But the bus stop is very near by. And, on the other hand, the environment is beautiful for hiking.

Pros: The staff was helpful and ready to take the time to explain things to a foreign tourist, even though they spoke little English themselves. Nice Japanese breakfast. Pleasant baths with a small outdoor area.

Pros: Its Just okey

Cons: I suggest each hotel should have 2 or more staff with very good English conversation skill. We have difficulty explaining to staff our concerns.

Pros: Kind staff, very small room but clean - had everything two travelers needed. Safe area, safe property.

Pros: Although this hotel is a little more difficult to get to from the train station, it is definitely worth the effort. We stayed here once before and said if we were in the area we would do so again . . . and we did!! This time we stayed two nights and were able to check out some areas nearby. We enjoyed exploring Senshu Park and the Kawabata Restaurant and Bar District, which are within walking distance. This hotel was once an onsen resort and still is. The onsen is wonderful! There is a barber shop, which I tried this time and liked the hair-cut and service I received. One of the best reasons to come here is the izakaya restaurant located on the second floor of the hotel. It doesn't have an extensive selection of food, but it is good and the service is great.

Pros: This hotel was a great find for our stay in Akita. It's clean and comfortable. The onsen is great and exceeded my expectations. I loved the no shoes policy especially as we were traveling with a baby. Great location.

Cons: The room was spacious but had too much furniture.

Pros: Amazing onsen! It has outdoor and indoor baths. It was great!

Pros: Very good natural onsen

Pros: The onsen,

Pros: We planned to use Akita as our base for day trips to the historic samurai village of Hakunodate and to Lake Tazawa, but the Route-Inn Grantia turned out to be a destination of its own. The staff was friendly (though I was glad to be able to speak Japanese), the service impeccable, and our room small but meticulously clean and well appointed (toiletries and tea provided; towels and jinbei for the onsen changed daily). Our floor featured a coin laundry and a vending machine with cup noodles. A Japanese breakfast buffet with a range of options is available for purchase for 850 yen/day, even if you don't include it in your reservation. I also highly recommend the restaurant on the premises, which serves a delicious rendition of the Akita specialty kiritanpo. Make sure to save time for the onsen! There are a variety of baths of different temperatures, both indoors and out.

Cons: There aren't many dining options around the hotel; you may want to either eat at the hotel restaurant or closer to Akita Station.

Pros: Very clean, excellent onsen facility, overall well kept business hotel, free motorbike parking

Cons: Must remove shoes at all times (even in the lobby), there is a strange "clinic" like smell all around, slightly pricier than it should be

Pros: Love the onsen within the hotel. Breakfast buffet menu also delicious! I recommend to buy the breakfast ticket (only 850 yen!!).

Cons: Room is a bit small. Staff cannot speak English well.

Pros: It was very comfort and clean.

Cons: Location, far from the train station.

Pros: Friendly personnel (but hardly english), clean. Right next to a bus stop.

Cons: The window couldn't be opened, only AC could be regulated. Therefore quickly bad air.

Pros: The staff are the greatest asset of this hotel. They are very friendly and go out of their way to help you. It is quite a long walk to the station but a taxi costs only 800yen.

Pros: very helpful welcoming staff. very good value.

Cons: International/sat tv would have been welcome.

Pros: The place was just enough for me. The place was really clean.

Cons: There's no parking. You have to pay for parking. I couldn't control the temperature in my room
