Towadakohan Sakura
10/10 Excellent
"Friendly staff"
Art Hotel Hirosaki City
8/10 Good
"This was a strange one. Last year, we stayed at the Art Hotel in Aomori which was brand new. The Art Hotel in Hirosaki is a short walk from Hirosaki station and seems to be an older hotel that has undergone renovation when taken over by Art Hotels. The room was a bit cramped, albeit that there were three of us and that they had to add a portable bed to the room, but the strange thing was the bathroom. It was the biggest bathroom I've ever seen in a hotel in Japan with two sinks and a large shower/bathtub stall. They had a nice breakfast buffet at a reasonable price with local specialties, i.e. apples since it's Aomori prefecture, which is good because there's not much going on in Hirosaki around the train station. But there is a Gusto family restaurant we went to about a five minute walk from the hotel. Now I want to say something about the staff working there. In a rush to catch a train, I forgot my cane at the front desk and was already on the train when I realized that. My wife called the staff and explained and they packed it up nicely and overnighted to our next hotel. Yes, we had to pay for the shipping, but I appreciate the diligence of the staff in returning it to me."
Hotel Towadaso
8/10 Good
"A lovely hotel by Lake Towada that is beginning to show its age. It’s a perfectly fine place to stay, and it’s in a nice location, but it feels so empty, having such a large hotel with so few guests."

Hoshino Resorts KAI Tsugaru
10/10 Excellent
"Wonderful stay! 3 nights with two babies age 2 and 8 months, the staff were incredibly helpful, attentive and couldn’t do enough for you. The dinner was superb and breakfast varied. Unsure why such negative reviews we have a wonderful stay."
Grand Park Hotel Odate
10/10 Excellent
"Such a wonderful stay again. The best thing about this hotel for me is the all you can eat breakfast in which they serve local famous ingredients like tomburi & nagaimo, Hinai-jidori tsumire meat ball. Location is another thing I like. From here, you can enjoy a little walk around the Keijo Park, visit Akita-inu museum and appreciate the gorgeous view of Mt. Ho-o alongside Nagaki river. Come experience all this and you'll definitely love it."
Crowne Plaza Resort Appi Kogen by IHG
8/10 Good
"A nice set-up for a ski-in/ski-out resort. My kids also had great lessons with an English instructor. Getting to Appi Kogen was also quite easy with the buses from Morioka Station. We were also bumped up to a larger room, which was very comfortable, especially by Japanese standards. That was also great. However….. The only drawback was the very limited food options, especially for dinner with young kids, who don’t eat very much anyway. We live in Japan, so we’re accustomed to Japanese portions, local izakayas, bentos, etc. But this was challenging. It was either spend 20,000¥-30,000¥ for a mediocre buffet, where the kids just wanted a few bites of the simplest food. Or a yakiniku restaurant that would’ve been 30,000¥ - 40,000¥ for a family of 4. High-end sushi spot that would’ve been even more pricey. (The room service menu is quite sad, and again would be close to 20,000¥) Or, you’re left with getting instant Nissin ramen cups at the convene, which is what we ended up doing the last night. (Breakfast, again, pay steep prices at the buffet, or wait till the bakery opens at the comically late hour of 10:00am, when you of course want to be on the slopes.) Anyway, I’d suggest packing some of your own bentos, or be prepared to pay. ¥¥¥¥¥¥"
