Aizuwakamatsu Hotels with Bars

Great place where to rest with plenty of nature around and the possibility of reserving the onsen all for yourself. The food is amazing, the space is great and there are plenty of traditional vibes since the first steps you take inside the resort. Absolutely recommended to anyone passing by the area and looking for some relaxing time.

I stayed overnight in a very compact but also very practical room with everything I needed. The space was well-designed with a good-sized desk which had three powerpoints above it (yay! doesn't happen everywhere), so easy to plug in tablet and accessories, and also charge phone and camera battery. Small fridge and tv, humidifier, electric jug, nighshirt and complimentary slilppers. Lovely ceramic tea mugs. I did find the waste bins a little small (no recycling but that's often the case in Japanese hotels). Wi fi worked well, and there was a radio. The comfortable bed had a nice flat pillow and lighting console conveniently placed. The bathroom was small but there was a good deep bath. Interesting city and mountain views from the room. The hotel lobby was attractively decorated. The location was conveniently close to the JR Station as well as eateries and some shops. Good value, and would stay again.

We visited Aizuwakamatsu at the national holiday weekend so there were limited options to us in this famous onsen town, Hagishiyama. We wanted a more modern hotel, and while the shots of the room look good on their website, the reality is that it is much smaller than I had expected. Though the room looked new, the bathroom was a disappointment, small and shabby. With two large beds in the room, that leaves little space for moving around. And they try hard to squeeze all essential items of an onsen hotel room into the smallest space possible, including placing the vanity unit in the living room opposite the sleeping platform, sharing space with a kettle and drinking water glasses. There is a shoe stand and a folding screen in-between the toilet and bathroom, which is hugely strange and inconvenient. Ours is a 12-tatami room, which I expect would be good for 3 people, but the reality is that it is so cramped that one would not want to spend much time in the room. Perhaps that’s the reason why the hotel provided a lot of public sitting areas. Yes, for guests to admire the magnificent view of the mountain stream, but also to stay out of the uncomfortable room. The room was a huge disappointment but there are some nice sides of the hotel. Dinner was really good; we had window seats facing the waterfall and the Aizu beef was very delicious. The public onsets, especially the outdoor ones, are nice, situated just next to the mountain stream. All in all, for the US680 I paid for three, it was not good value for money.

It is located along the main street and can be seen from afar, so you can see it immediately. It takes 15 ～ 20 minutes to walk from the station of Aizu Wakamatsu, so it is the best hotel for people who use cars more than trains. It is very convenient to go to Mt. iimori, kamagaga Jo castle and shichikamachi station street within 10 minutes by car. Parking at the cherry blossoms You can park about 90 cars for free, but the parking width is narrow, so it is less 々 tight for large cars (3 number cars). When large cars are next to each other, you need to be careful about the door at the time of boarding and boarding. The breakfast was relatively satisfactory (but orange juice was not 100% juice). It was a twin room, but it is spacious for a business hotel. There is an air cleaner. There is no USB and there are only two outlets attached to the desk (there is no outlet around the bed), so it is inconvenient to charge this or this. It is better to take a tap with multiple mouths. There is a large bath in the bath 1F. There were 6 washing places for men and 5 ～ 6 people in the bathtub. The large bath for women seems to be a washroom for 4 people. There were also 2 coin laundry in the dressing room. The front desk was very kind and polite. The beer of 350 ml of the vending machine (the most squeezed) is 250 yen and conscientious. Also, the exclusive coin received at the front desk at check-in can be used for a soft drink vending machine. I feel like I got something. A few minutes walk (along the main street) is the supermarket ”Lion Doll”.

Great hotel located next to Aizuwakamatsu Station. It’s a great location for being a base to visit all the attractions and great restaurants around the area. It’s a standard Toyoko Inn Japanese business hotel with basic amenities. Room wise it was definitely above average but it’s a bit on the old side. The bed and pillow was comfortable. Great water pressure too. The room came with breakfast so we managed to have a go just before they close up (pretty early at 9am). The food was basic but tasted really good. They also provide a common washer and dryer which was very useful for us travellers. Would definitely consider it as it’s a good budget, centrally located and comfortable.

Only breakfast was not dinner, twin, and I had one person to use. The best thing was that I could have two baths in Chiyo waterfall and four baths in the new waterfall of the sister hall. The Chiyo Taki view bath can be seen in Aizu Wakamatsu City, and there is a bath to listen to the flow of the river, and the degree of fulfillment is quite high. The room was also a twin and a room with a large amount of one person. There was also a calm free drink space such as coffee, tea and sake at once. Breakfast was buffet style, there was also a local food dish, and it was very good with a menu that was not overrun on the street. It was a plan without dinner, but it is not difficult to eat at a local shop because it can be done in about 10 minutes by car to Aizu Wakamatsu city. It was an inn that I wanted to go again. I think this price is really good for this quality. I stayed at ashinomaki Onsen the next day, but it is an inn that makes me think I should have stayed here for a long time.
