Yubo Ichiraku TENDO SPA&BREWERY

1. The hotel has a lot of entertainment options, including bartending, roasting marshmallows, etc. in the evening. The a**osphere is very good. 2. Stayed for two nights. Different meals are provided for dinner, and a variety of drinks are provided. Although the content of the breakfast buffet is the same, special soups are prepared for the second day, and I can feel the hotel's attentiveness. 3. There was no refill of drinking water in the room on the second day. I am not sure whether it was only provided once or forgotten; there is only one vending machine in the hotel, but it was sold out during the two days I stayed. 4. There seems to be free soba noodles during certain periods. I didn’t go out specifically to eat them so I’m not sure. Rooms with courtyards also provide a 24-hour bar with drinks, cookies, and fruits.

It takes about 7 minutes by taxi from Tendo Station and costs 830 yen. This is an all-inclusive accommodation, so dinner, dinner, breakfast, and alcohol are all included in the accommodation fee and free of charge. There is one large public bath and three private baths. If there is space, you can enter for free. Over the course of 2 days and 1 night, I took a total of 6 baths and was so full that I couldn't look down. Although I don't like alcohol, they have a variety of drinks that I enjoy, including cream soda in the evening and matcha in the morning. You can also choose the pattern of the yukata.

We checked in at 3pm, ate complimentary soba noodles at 4pm, then went to the large public bath and toasted with craft beer after the bath! From 6pm we had a delicious dinner using plenty of Yamagata ingredients! When we went to the lobby after dinner, jazz music was playing and there was whiskey and the staff would make original mojitos right in front of us! Before going to bed we went to the large public bath one more time! It was a huge, open-air bath shaped like a horse♨️ In the morning lobby there was safflower hot water and matcha that you could make yourself, so we could take it easy in the morning too, as check-out was at 11am! It was an inn that I would like to visit again in a different season.

There are 3 private baths, which are included in the accommodation fee depending on the plan. I stayed on an all-inclusive plan, so I was able to enjoy a private bath. Among them, the ceramic bath was the best because it had a nice a**osphere because it had a garden. The food was also delicious. If you like alcohol, you'll probably enjoy it as it also includes beer.

Title: Rooms with poor sound insulation, lack of consideration The sound insulation of the rooms is so poor that the voices from the next room are loud. Rooms with connecting doors are unheard of these days. Groups are free to make noise until late at night. This is a problem for the hotel. I will never go there again.

We thoroughly enjoyed the all-inclusive experience! The homemade craft beer from TENDO BREWERY is the perfect post-bath treat! The beer made with fresh hops from Yamagata is particularly rich and fragrant, with amazing quality. After dinner, we went to Tsukikoma STAND and enjoyed an excellent cocktail made by the bartender. We also enjoyed the three private baths, read books in the library, and listened to records in the storehouse. In the morning, we even did yoga and made matcha tea. It was an inn with so much to offer that it was impossible to enjoy it all in one day. Next time, we'd like to stay for a workcation and stay for three days and two nights.

I stayed there with my family, but the eating area and toilets were cold, the hot spring was lukewarm and chlorine-smelling, there was trash in the room, there were not many towels, we were told to use the water in the sink instead of the water in the pot, the beer was never refilled, the kettle cord was too short and didn't reach the outlet, etc. It was an old, stingy inn with no consideration for the elderly, and the facilities were hard to understand and there was no consideration, so I don't think it would be suitable for the elderly.

I searched online and found Ichiraku and decided to stay there! It was an all-inclusive experience that is irresistible for those who love alcohol! The place was also very clean and I had a very comfortable stay. I would like to come back with my family next time!
