2-Star Hotels in Aomori Prefecture, Japan

I booked this hotel for April 22nd, and when the earthquake hit off the coast of Aomori on April 20th, I tried to cancel, but they said free cancellation wasn't possible. This hotel was ridiculously overpriced for Aomori's cherry blossom season, and the decor was dated, though the staff were polite. It has a hot spring that locals use, too. The room was tiny. A hotel I wouldn't pay more than 250 yuan for on a normal day was charging over 900 yuan! What really annoyed me was that after risking aftershocks to even get there, I saw the room rate drop by 30% that very day! The Dormy Inn just around the corner was only around 600 yuan a night and a much newer hotel. I honestly wouldn't recommend this place.

The salted squid for breakfast was really delicious👍

Getting there in the snow was no joke. With luggage almost impossible- it was quite a hike from the bus stop and pretty far from the station. If it weren’t snowing probably it would be doable but I did opt to cab back to the station the next day because the access was not great. Room was small but cozy and i did like how conveniently positioned the kettle was.

My first night in Japan 2024 Trip. In a faraway county. Very peaceful. I drove there alone in the darkness. Thought that there might be very few people there. But I met so many grandmas stayed there as a large group. Met them in onsen too. Very strange experience but very touch. Can feel of aging society. The ryokan guys also booked a local izakaya for me, so I had dinner easily, no need to nervous there won’t be a seat. The Room was so nice and big. Many hidden rooms inside. Would be much better if they haven’t prepared ice water for me during early winter. (I need normal temp water or hot water) Breakfast was great Overall was great I love this place. Very relax and no tourist. I spent the morning in a small garden in front of the hotel alone. Listen to water sound. Recharged my energy.

It was very clean and quiet and easy to spend. I was happy because the bath and toilet were separate. The food was delicious 😋. I would like to go to stay again.

It is located in the center of Hirosaki city. There is a parking lot near the hotel, but there is a parking lot about 400 meters away that you can use for 400 yen for 24 hours, and we recommend that parking lot. The room is relatively spacious, and the bathtub is also relatively large. I think the bed is comfortable with a memory foam mat.

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.

Check in front desk service is polite and in patient. Room is clean and really big compared to hotel in Tokyo. It provide body clean facilities in bathroom and toilet. Also, we can enjoy tea and coffee in lobby. But one of bad thing is the hotel is far away from JR station, it hold a 20min walk, bit far away and carry a bulky luggage.

It is highly recommended to travel by car, because the location is far from the station There is also a self-service laundry near the hotel, which is very convenient  Free hot springs are available every night. The bathhouse is small but enough to use. Breakfast choice is simple and not too much money, but it is enough leftovers and tastes very good The room is clean, or it is biased towards the suburbs, there are small insects every night but it does not affect the stay ☀️ The aunts and staff in the dining hall have a good attitude and are courteous to foreigners

About 5 minutes walk from Hato Station. The room is still very retro with the key. The pick-up point is the stick with the key. The room is small and small in Japanese hotels. The interior is still clean, but the design is not very reasonable. The front desk is on the second floor and the door of one building is locked. Then I gave a room on the third floor. It was on the third floor of another building. It was not connected to the third floor where the front desk was located. I had to go back from the second floor corridor oil and then take the stairs to the third floor. In addition, the WIFi signal of the hotel on this side is not very good.
