Yamagata Eki Nishiguchi Washington Hotel
8.7 (306 reviews)

Yamagata Eki Nishiguchi Washington Hotel ★★★

📍 1 Chome-1-1 Jonanmachi, Yamagata City

"Had another enjoyable stay at Yamagata Eki Nishiguchi Washington Hotel. This time I especially appreciated how quiet and peaceful the hotel was, making it easy to get a proper rest even after a long day of travel. The room was clean and well-kept, with everything functioning properly and arranged in a practical way. It’s not large, but it feels comfortable and efficient for solo travelers or short stays. What stood out on this visit was the consistency of service—staff were still very polite and attentive, and the check-in process was quick and smooth. The location near Yamagata Station continues to be a big advantage, especially for early departures or late arrivals. Overall, a dependable and restful hotel that delivers consistent comfort and convenience. A solid choice whenever staying in Yamagata."

"Returning customer, it's a very nice hotel, always my first choice to stay when going Yamagata"

Takamiya Hotel Lucent
8.8 (133 reviews)

Takamiya Hotel Lucent ★★★★

📍 942 Zaoonsen, Yamagata City

"This hotel is incredibly close to both the Zao Ropeway and Zao Chuo Ropeway. They also offer a shuttle service between the bus station and the hotel. They have indoor, outdoor, and private onsens. The hotel's food is excellent; dinner is served as a set menu, while breakfast is a buffet. The rooms are nice with beautiful views, and the staff provides great service. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting the Zao Ropeway!"

Yamagata Kokusai Hotel
8.5 (221 reviews)

Yamagata Kokusai Hotel ★★★

📍 3 Chome-4-5 Kasumicho, Yamagata City

"A walkable distance from train station, nice stay with comfort room and delicious breakfast buffet"

Richmond Hotel Yamagata Ekimae
9.4 (403 reviews)

Richmond Hotel Yamagata Ekimae ★★★★

📍 1 Chome-3-11, Futabacho, Yamagata City

"Generally a great place to stay! Quiet area, extremely near the train station, the hotel amenities were great. They have food delivery and massage services, and their lounge opens till midnight. The free soba dinner was also delicious! They have phone charger cables provided and extra pillow in the room already. It’s a very well-prepared room. Only downside is that the room was a bit dusty, likely from ventilation issue; not due to lack of cleaning"

Meitoya So
8.8 (50 reviews)

Meitoya So ★★★

📍 48 Zaoonsen, Yamagata City

"Overall, the service was good. The breakfast had a good variety. The location might be a bit of an uphill walk, but a shuttle service to and from the train station is available, which is more convenient than dragging your luggage yourself during the winter months."

Yamagata Nanokamachi Washington Hotel
7.8 (86 reviews)

Yamagata Nanokamachi Washington Hotel ★★★

📍 1 Chome-4-31 Nanukamachi, Yamagata City

"Although it's a bit far from the main attractions, the bus stop and convenience store right downstairs make it quite convenient. The room was clean, and the soundproofing was decent. The staff were very friendly."

Forest Inn Sangoro
9.0 (3 reviews)

Forest Inn Sangoro ★★

📍 Kamihozawa, 不動上国有林28 蔵王温泉スキー場中央ゲレンデ 冬季 (12月〜5月10日) 道路閉鎖, Yamagata City

"Some places aren’t just a stay—they become part of the journey itself. Tucked away in the mountains, Sangorogoya is more than just a lodge. A fully wooden structure that quietly holds warmth against the endless snow outside. Inside, the shared space feels alive yet deeply comforting. A place where strangers gather, not out of necessity, but through a shared love for the mountains. You can sit by the fire, exchanging stories with people who understand the same silence. Or simply find a quiet corner, letting the moment settle— writing thoughts meant only for yourself. There’s no rush here. No need to fill the time. Just the rare chance to exist fully within it. Maybe this is what travel is truly about— not the places we check off, but the moments where we finally slow down enough to feel. One day, I hope to return. To arrive earlier, stay longer— and experience the stillness of fresh snow before the world wakes. — 人群散去之後,留下的是屬於自己的那份安靜與沉澱。 人が去ったあとに残るのは、自分だけの静けさと余韻。"

Comfort Hotel Yamagata
8.9 (203 reviews)

Comfort Hotel Yamagata ★★★

📍 1 Chome-3-12 Kasumicho, Yamagata City

"Plenty of restaurants and convenience stores nearby. The hotel is clean and hygienic, a good midway stop between Yamagata and Zao Juhyo (snow monsters)."

Gokan No Yu Tsuruya Hotels in Yamagata City

Gokan No Yu Tsuruya

"The hotel is right opposite the bus terminal, and the location couldn't be better! The hotel provides a free private hot spring bath, which feels average, but I went to use the public open-air hot spring the next day, which was a better choice! At night, there are not many commercial activities near Zao, and there are not many restaurant options. It is a better choice to stay in the hotel and have a banquet meal."

Hotel Crown Hills Yamagata Hotels in Yamagata City

Hotel Crown Hills Yamagata

"Room was basic but I think it’s okay for its price. Staff at the reception are nice. The drain in the restroom has a bad odor so I usually just shower in the public onsen. Around a 9-min walk to the station which was convenient. Overall I had a good night sleep and the place is clean."

Super Hotel Yamagataeki Nishiguchi Natural Hot Springs Hotels in Yamagata City

Super Hotel Yamagataeki Nishiguchi Natural Hot Springs

"The hotel is about 600 meters away from Yamagata Station (you have to go through the underground tunnel to get there). It is the only hotel near the station that has a hot spring pool. After checking in, there is a Welcome Bar next to the counter, which offers a wide range of coffee/beverages and alcoholic beverages. The room is small but has everything you need. There are also accommodation supplies on the first floor, with various types of pillows for you to use. There are also three sets of washing machines/dryers (each costs 100 yen), which is really convenient for long-term travelers! Although there are not many types of breakfast, the taste is very authentic. It is only served until 9 o'clock. After 8:30, there are fewer people eating, so some dishes (such as bread) are not replenished. It is recommended that guests take a seat early to enjoy."

Takamiya Hotel Lucent ★★★★
"After getting off at Zao Onsen bus stop, turn right over the bridge and walk straight for about 6-7 minutes. It's really easy to find, right opposite the ropeway station, and just past the convenience store. Pictures 1 and 2 show the hotel exterior. It's a chain hotel, and both the food and service were excellent, very satisfying! 👍 The hot spring bath was absolutely fantastic. Even though the facilities are a bit dated, soaking in the old springs is so relaxing. It's perfectly suited for those coming to ski or hike."

"Pretty good! It's very close to the station, and the breakfast was amazing! Even though it's Japanese style, there's a huge variety, especially with tempura and chawanmushi (steamed egg custard). The service was incredibly enthusiastic too."
