Best Hotels near Harusamean, Kaminoyama

We arrived at Mt Zao in the middle of Our Epic Six Week Trip To Japan, during which we stayed in nine different hotels. This room was amongst my favourites. The staff largely didn't speak English and were not helpful. We had a stand off at the restaurant as we didn't understand that we couldn't dine at there without having made a booking far in advance. After this was explained,  there was no apology or suggestions for alternative dining options. There are limited dining options in Zao. We ate at the Soup Curry place one night and a cute sushi joint another night. On the last night we ended up getting an ebiken bento box from the local L****ns as nothing was open. We did book breakfast each morning and that was fantastic. Lots of Japanese and Western options and it seemed like the food had all been prepared onsite. The hotel is very pretty, with a lovely view of the forest from the lobby. There is a common room with free coffee, tea and ice creams. People were pretty friendly in there. The hotel is the furthest from the 'town' but the closest to the ski lift and to the 'sulfurous' onsen. The ski lift is about 50 metres from the hotel and the ride up and down is spectacular. I thought the onsen was top notch. The sulfurous onsen outside has milky water that is supposed to be good for your complexion. It was fun having an onsen with snow all around. We stayed in the Western style room - it was spacious and well appointed. Our little lounge area had a beautiful view of pine trees and lots of snow. There was also a similar view from the luxurious bath tub (but I didn't use that tub as the onsen was so good.) The beds in our room were very hard. Our room also had a massage chair which I used for hours a time. It was a bit of a trek getting to Mt Zao. The hotel staff weren't very helpful with organising buses but they did drop us off at the bus stop early in the morning and we were picked up on our day of arrival. I know that the staff weren't friendly to us because of the language barrier, which is a shame because everyone should enjoy this venue. I would stay here again for sure. Next time we'll book the dinner set. It did smell amazing ! --

Located in the innermost part of the pension village, this is an inn where you can enjoy a refreshing view. The building that was handed over from the previous owner was about 40 years old, but the water area was renovated very nicely, so I was able to stay comfortably. I asked for a course where I could enjoy Zao beef fillet with two meals per night, but I was surprised that all the dishes were very delicious and beautifully arranged. In particular, Tsurumurasaki's pasta has a good balance of kelp soup and you can eat as much as you want. I was staying for a family birthday celebration, but I was able to spend a blissful time with a surprise birthday cake prepared. It is a very nice pension with delicious food and friendly owner's thoughtfulness.

The location is a bit far from the gondola station. Close to the slopes, suitable for skiing. Good quality for breakfast and dinner. Japanese-style rooms are relatively small. Shuttle service is good. Suitable for family travel.

It was 7000 yen per night. The parking lot is 600 yen per night, but it was good that it was free to put in and out because it was not three-dimensional. The natural hot spring was pleasant. I was happy that there was a drink service at night, and the breakfast buffet had potato boiled and tamacon depending on the day.

It is an old hotel, so you may not want to take a bath in your room, but their public bath is good. This place is on the hill which means you will not want to walk by your own in winter because of the slippery Mountain path. But in other hand it is really convenient because they provide shuttle bus to bus station or cable car station. And there is a ski place just in front of the hotel, you can borrow the equipments from hotel.

It was a hotel directly connected to Yamagata Station. The weather was good on the day I stayed, the mountain 々 was clear at dusk, and I was able to see a beautiful moon at night. If you walk in front of the station, there are restaurants and supermarkets, so I think it's not troublesome to stay. There was also a convenience store on the １ floor. I would like to take care of you again when you go to Yamagata.

〈 room 〉 Japanese style room is wide 々 The interior is old but clean and the amenities are substantial 〈 hot spring 〉 The dressing room and the public bath were very clean without garbage and slippery. The hot water temperature is also suitable for temperature The panorama view from the bathtub was also good 〈 meal 〉 Impression that there were many white rice, sushi, noodles and carbohydrates for dinner The amount was sufficient but only the thick seasoning overall. Even the people felt less 々 thick but rich in food and delicious 〈 customer service 〉 polite customer service, the female staff was friendly with a smile to the child Overall, I was able to stay comfortably without dissatisfaction.

久しぶりに山形に宿泊。選んだホテルが山形国際ホテルさん。じゃらんよりネット予約。1泊朝食付きのプランで5000円を下回る価格で宿泊出来ました。（クーポン割引があり）自家用車にて向かう。地下に駐車場があり便利。チェックイン後お部屋へ。少々トレンドとはかけ離れた感じ。（空調は、集中管理型など。）TV📺は小さめ、少々残念。手持ちタブレットでネット配信（DAZNなど）を楽しもうとするが、Wi-Fi環境があまり良くなく、途切れ途切れでした。しかしながら、朝食は素晴らしくおいしい。芋煮、ダシ、葡萄🍇、食菊、だだちゃ豆入りのオムライスなど山形を感じさせる料理が並び、カレー🍛も美味。 大手ホテルチェーンが進出している山形。応援したいホテルです。また伺います。
