Cheap Hotels in Aomori City

"This was my second time visiting Aomori. My last trip was in mid-June. This time, I happened to catch the Nebuta Festival, and hotels were completely booked. The place I stayed at last time had quintupled its prices, so Trip.com recommended this Daiwa hotel to me. The hotel is quite good, not far from Aomori Station, an easy walk. The room was clean, on the compact side. There was a booking error this time, and while it wasn't resolved, Trip.com customer service was actively trying to help me throughout. In contrast, the hotel's agent was incredibly unprofessional in handling the issue. The hotel's service itself was excellent. The deducted service points are due to the agent."

"The hotel is close to the station and not too far from the attractions. There's a street downstairs with convenience stores, 100-yen shops, izakayas, and bars, so the location is great. The room wasn't particularly small, which was nice. There's a water dispenser right outside the elevator, which I really liked, otherwise, I'd have to buy water from the convenience store and carry it up."

"Right above Aomori Station, this hotel's location is super convenient, with direct access to JR from the lobby. It's often fully booked, so the hot spring is usually quite busy no matter when you go, but they do have real apples in the onsen! There's a hot bath and a slightly cooler one, both very comfortable. The spa, yoga, and dining are mostly extra charges, but there are plenty of activities. The rooms don't have bathtubs, which makes sense since everyone's expected to use the large hot spring. The facilities and equipment are quite new, the bed is very comfortable, and you can see all the best parts of Aomori from your window, including the bay and the bridge."

"Here’s a polished Trip.com-style review you can use: ⸻ We stayed at Dormy Inn Aomori in a twin bed room and had a very pleasant experience. We were assigned a high-floor room on the 12th floor with a beautiful ocean view, which made the stay even more enjoyable. The room was spacious, and the beds were large and very comfortable, ensuring a good night’s sleep. The hotel is well-equipped with excellent hot spring facilities, including both indoor and outdoor baths as well as a sauna — a perfect way to relax after a day of exploring Aomori. Hotel breakfast is delicious and many choices. We also appreciated the practical amenities provided. The laundry machines are free to use, with a 30-minute wash cycle. The dryer costs only 100 yen for 20 minutes, which is very convenient for longer stays. The room also features a large, modern TV, and the hair dryer provided is a premium Refa brand, which was a nice touch. Overall, a very comfortable and convenient stay with great onsen facilities and thoughtful amenities. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting Aomori."

"The hotel is about 600 meters from Aomori Station. It's a bit inconvenient if you're dragging luggage, but it's very close to the product館 (local specialty center). The room rate isn't expensive, though the bathroom facilities are a bit old, and the hot and cold water taps on the sink are separate. The breakfast is decent, but I feel it's not as extensive as it was a year ago. The worst part was the electric kettle in the room. It didn't automatically turn off when the water boiled, so it boiled all my mineral water dry, which was a waste."

"I wasn’t expecting that much with this price, but surprisingly good hotel with this price. They serve free beef bowl at night and 550 yen breakfast buffet was very nice. They got some curry and chicken dishes and it was very tasty. Night view was nice and there is Machinaka-Onsen nearby so i strongly recommend to visit there. Room and toilet was very small and very old but it was not that bad. After all i was surprisingly satisfied with this hotel, and i wanna visit there again if i go to Aomori again. 5/5."

"Cozy room, great buffet breakfast served! 👍🏻 Upon check-in, the hotel lobby offers complimentary 100% Aomori famous apple juice as a welcome drink to guests. 🤠 It's absolutely delicious! 👍🏻 The location is central, and it's about a 13-minute walk from the subway station 🚉 to the hotel. There are plenty of convenience stores and restaurants within a few minutes' walk of the hotel at night, which is great! 👍🏻👍🏻 If I ever come back to Aomori, I'll definitely stay here again. The 'Sleeping Buddha' ceiling design in the hotel lobby is beautiful! 😻"

"Quiet. Nice staff. Loved having a free water bottle as a gift for not wanting my room to be cleaned every day. Really good location and Lawson on 1F. Key card is the cutest I have ever seen! (Window lower frame could do with some cleaning though and it is a pity window cannot be open to have some fresh air when it is cool outside - beats the sustainable logic behind less cleaning - same goes for the new cup and toothbrush everyday)"

"Very good. Iron is available and can be collected from reception area. Everywhere is near. Good room space. Although when we switch on the aircond its blowing hot air. Lucky that the weather and wind at night is cooler so we decided to open the window for cool air to the room. Happy for the opportunity to stay at this hotel in aomori."

"We stayed for 5 nights and were very satisfied with the value for money. We experienced the family bath and hot springs, and booked two rooms that included breakfast and dinner. We enjoyed delicious Japanese food every day. The problem arose on the last day during breakfast. About 10 minutes before the 9 AM closing time, my mother, trying to be considerate of the restaurant staff, poured her remaining coffee into a paper cup, intending for our family of four to clear our dishes and leave. At that moment, an old man, leaning with both hands on the kitchen counter, loudly shouted something unintelligible at us. Our entire family was startled, confused, and didn't understand what he was saying. As foreigners who don't speak Japanese, we couldn't comprehend him. After hearing him repeatedly shout loudly, we guessed we should pour the coffee back into the cup and left. Other guests were present, and this experience was the worst, ruining our family's impression of Japan. Shortly after, we tried to ask the old man about it, but he pretended not to understand English and avoided conversation, retreating into the kitchen. If there's a communication barrier, they should use a friendly translation app or clearly guide guests with actions instead of a kitchen staff member standing like a king with arms outstretched, shouting. Also, it was uncomfortable to have restaurant staff constantly watching how many plates people took, probably because individual dishes were served one by one. It's been a while since our trip ended, but that incident still pops into my mind. My family also talks about it. I hope they don't ruin tourists' enjoyable trips with rigid and inappropriate behavior. We felt disrespected as foreigners. I briefly explained this to the front desk using a translator, and a female staff member repeatedly offered polite apologies. Due to our departure schedule, we couldn't speak with the old man again or receive an apology, which is probably why we won't be returning to Japan."
