Maybe there was communication problem between hotel and the taxi company. I wanted to go to highway bus station in S-mall, but taxi has just mistakenly taken me to JR station. Lucky that I was early and it was just another 10-min walk. I could still catch my bus to Sendai. I wish a more details-minded communication going forward. Apart from this, the rest experience in hotel is so great. An excellent place for recharging myself. Spacious areas for reading & relaxation.

from the architecture to the amenities, this hotel in the middle of a rice field is just stunning. great onsen, great local food & drink, a cool sake tasting bar----and many libraries to peruse books you can't read (unless you read japanese!) you will need a car to reach it, or a taxi from the station, and you really are in the middle of nowhere. only drawback for foreigners is the super early check out time of 10 am.

This place was amazing. In general in Japan you'll have A1 service. This place has A1 service, on top of that, one of the prettiest scenery. The breakfast on the terrace is beautiful. The architecture of the building, the vibe and all the wood make it so peaceful. It was worth every dollar and would recommend to everyone. The food and library want to make you stay there for the whole day. Thank you for the stay! :)

Overall is very good . Just some minor improvement

The overall service is good and the view is nice. I would recommend this property. Just some minor issue in winter time. The parking is a bit far and snow cause a bit difficulty to access. The insulation is not quite good for winter. The shower area and the way to open air bath is cold.

Beautiful hotel, worth a stay for the architecture

The hotel is beautifully designed using readily available materials such as paper tubes for chairs and bed heads. The hotel room is spacious with attention to details. However the walls between rooms seem thin and we could hear our next door neighbour knocking around, we could also hear the guests upstairs running in the room (should be the kids), and kids screaming in the corridor. Besides the noise issue, the hotel is well designed, including the public bath which I tried the indoor and outdoor ones. Both are relaxing and stylishly designed. I would also like to complement the staff who helped patiently with the change in my arrival date. Thank you very much 🙏
