The onsen is a must visit during winter

Reviewed By totomai m

I can't say much about the hotel but I can recommend their onsen during winter. The outdoor onsen was such a blast. I was there soaked in a hot water while the snow is falling. The way to the hotel is a bit difficult though the hotel provide pick-up. I found it to be very clean.. If you are in Akita in winter, visit this hotel and try the onsen.

Komagatake Grand Hotel

Very pleasant hotel and extremely kind staff

Reviewed By JBN51

We used this hotel as part of a JR package shinkansen + hotel + lift pass. All of the hotel staff were extremely polite and full of attention for any question. We were supposed to check in at 3pm but we got the room 2 hours before so that we could get changed to go skiing. Dinner was traditional Japanese menu from Akita prefecture. Breakfast was mainly Japanese buffet but with a lot of options though. The room (tatami and futon) was very wide and comfortable. On the last day of skiing and after checking out, we were allowed to use the onsen again. Highly recommend this hotel if you go to tazawako ski resort.

Iyashinosato Yunohanahonkan

癒されています

Reviewed By torigata

車で約2時間かかりますが人口北投石の岩盤浴がお気に入りです。 トルマリンの人工温泉に入り岩盤浴とこれを何度か繰り返します。 肌がすべすべです。 昼食は事前に要望をお伝えしておくときりたんぽ鍋とかもやってくれる場合がございます。人数は何名かまとめる必要があるかもしれません。 この周辺には沢山天然温泉があるのですがここに来てしまいます。 作務衣と大きなバスタオル・タオルが入浴料1000円に含まれています。 シャンプーやボディーソープは据え付けです。 お風呂のお湯はかけ流しできれいでした。 手ぶらで入れる岩盤浴です。 岩盤浴が熱いので熱に弱い方はバスタオル1枚お持ちすると調整できるかもしれません。 無いときはもう1枚バスタオルをお借りするといいと思います。多分有料かも・・・ Wi-Fiも完備されていますので岩盤浴が貸し切りの時は音楽をかけながらゴロゴロできます。 最後に部屋風呂はありませんが温泉が苦手な方でも岩盤浴にはシャワールームがありますので多様です。 もう一つ、ワンニャンペットホテルもございますので事前に連絡して確認してください。

大曲から秋田空港への途中に立ち寄りました。 看板も少なく、冬場は迷うかも知れませんが車なら空港からすぐです。 日帰り温泉は400円です。平日9時からOKでした。素晴らしいです。 お湯も透明でちょうどいい温度でした。貸し切りでした。 また利用したいです。

A disappointment.

Reviewed By tikiland

We arrived before the checkin time of three o'clock. The place was deserted and the staff were steadfast that we would not be checked in until three. In a big hotel like this it is a nonsense that a room cannot be made ready in a reasonable time. Our room, a twin non smoking in the main block was lovely. Spacious newly refurbished. The huge disappointment was the Kaiseke evening meal. In a place like this surrounded by the fishing industry, the meal was a mean ordinary event. I say this because the price you pay for this experience is far from ordinary and the expectation of fresh seafood was completely let down. The onsen pools are OK. Nothing special. Iv'e stayed in a few now and always have a taste of the water to assess the minerals. This seems like heated fresh water, clear and tasteless - and no feeling on your skin. Would I come back, no never. There are way better onsen half board experiences in Japan than this one.

Wonderful stop after day long bike ride in rain

Reviewed By MJonesPE

This was one night stop heading from Tokyo to Aomori to catch ferry to Hokkaido. You can choose your vacation days, but not the weather :). Anyways, after full day of riding in rain, and still seeing beautiful vistas and Sea of Japan coast, Yokote was my stop point. Found plaza on hotels.com and it was perfect! Great check in, covered parking, comp Olsen at sports club, 2 minutes walk and on facilities are superb. Dryers on each floor were nice treat. Room is not big but big enough. WiFi is great. Easy to find, right next to jr station. If i come back this way, will stop again.

Hotel Grand Tencoo

Friendly Staff, Amazing Views

Reviewed By AlvinL1068

No complaints whatsoever about the room; the view was immaculate especially on a winter morning. We visited during early January 2020, so the whole landscape was caked in clean snow. There were traditional Japanese mattresses (not futons) for you to sleep in. There is a toilet, but no bath or shower in the room. All bathing facilities are at the shared onsens. The food was amazing, traditional Japanese fare for both dinner and breakfast, although some people might find it hard to take if they're not used to Japanese/Asian cuisine. Like our rooms, the dining hall overlooked a gorgeous hill covered in glorious white snow. The onsens weren't the best, but it does its job of warming you up on a freezing winter night. No mixed baths.There's a changing room, an indoor bath room and an outdoor bath room. Good views too! The staff were very friendly. Probably the best part of the trip. English is severely lacking here, but they provided a template to help get your and their point across. If you know some Japanese, it'll go a long way here. Even so, they do their best to make your stay enjoyable, and boy did they succeed! There was even a free bus ride for us to the nearest bus stop from our hotel come check out time. They are wonderful people at Hotel Grand Tencoo. Honestly though if I go back to Tazawako/Semboku Town, I would probably stay somewhere else to experience a new hotel. But please know that you definitely can't go wrong with Hotel Grand Tencoo. Highly recommended!
