Dormy Inn Express Koriyama Natural Hot Spring

Nice place for the short stay. Onsen and midnight complementary ramen are the best!

A little rude check in experience. Check out was ok.

Excellent location - an easy walk from the station. We loved the onsens - everything about them was wonderful. Check-in was easy even though the staff had limited English. Coffee and tea in the lobby was a welcome treat after a long day of sight-seeing. Free dinner for the first 30 guests to show up at 6PM at the dining room was a welcome surprise. It wasn’t a gourmet dinner, but it was a different meal each of our 3 nights there and it was filling and reasonably OK. Evening (free) ramen, as at all Dormy Inns, was good. The staff serving dinner and ramen were very friendly. We were happy with the size of our Japanese style room - it was more expensive than the small rooms, but worth it to us.

The sidewalk going up to the hotel is in desperate need of repair. Once you get to the door of the hotel you have to go up a small step, not easy with heavy rolling luggage. Then, the doors only open manually - again difficult when you are rolling 2 pieces of luggage. Once you are in the first door, the second door does open automatically. There is a second entrance further down the street which was no easier to get into if you are rolling luggage. The desk clerk at check-in made no mention of the free dinner. We wouldn’t have known about it if we hadn’t read about it on the little card we got with our room key. When we asked about it at the desk we were told it was free for the first 30 guests to show up and we were advised to show up at the start of service. The dining room was a barren, big empty space with 2 televisions along the far wall. High ceilings and indifferent furniture and no heat made it not the most pleasant place to eat (even though the food was free!)

Love public bath and living space for laundry, comic and beer

Public bath (onsen) and facilities.
