1. Hotel Location
The hotel is located in Tsunagi Onsen, Morioka.
If you are not driving, the main ways to get there are the very infrequent public buses or taxis with a fixed fare (5,000 yen).
2. Nearby Amenities
Tsunagi Onsen is located in a rural area of Morioka. There is only one convenience store nearby. If you plan to go, it is recommended to buy some daily necessities beforehand.
3. Hotel Facilities
As a hot spring hotel, this hotel has abundant entertainment facilities. For example, the hotel offers traditional cultural performances at irregular intervals in the evenings, and daytime buses to other tourist attractions in the Morioka area. The hotel's main feature is its extensive hot spring facilities, with many baths.
4. Hotel Staff Service
The hotel staff's service attitude is average. The front desk staff are not very enthusiastic, but the staff at the breakfast and dinner restaurants are quite friendly.
The hotel is almost perfect except that there is no bathtub in the room. The service struck me most is the courtesy of the staff. Everyone was so helpful and well-mannered.
An interesting secluded place, for those who do not have personal transport, it is necessary to take into account that from Ichinoseki station you can only get there by taxi. The rooms are large, separate bath. Suitable for a rest without fuss. Inside the hotel you need to walk without shoes.
The Resort location can easily access the Appi Kogen slope and rentals. Hotel is generally good but some details could be improved; such as providing towels in the onsen, increase the number of washing machines and dryers.
Food options within the hotel is limited. The best part is the sake tasting for 100¥
The location is good, right outside the station, breakfast is provided. The facilities are average. The pump room is downstairs on the side facing away from the station. It is too noisy at night. People with poor sleep should not stay here, as it is difficult to fall asleep. The quality of the razor is too poor. It was the first time I encountered bleeding after shaving in Japan.
The B&B is very close to Appi Plateau and provides ski pick-up and drop-off services.
At the same time, other employees are also asked to take care of the pick-up and drop-off, so there is no problem for the B&B to go to the ski resort for easy skiing.
The more problematic thing is how to get to the B&B. If you need to take a bus to get your ski equipment, it is quite a distance from the bus station to the B&B. It would be difficult to push your luggage for 20 minutes in the snow.
If you ask the B&B owner to pick you up at the JR station, you will need to call to communicate, and there are pick-up time restrictions. The website does not explain this clearly.
In addition, the communication between trip.com and the B&B is not very smooth.
You have to confirm your accommodation by phone in person. The owner is also a chef, so he doesn't reply to emails very often. Trip.com AI online customer service cannot help.
I think it would be ideal to drive here by yourself.
I had a good breakfast and was ready to go skiing.
But dinner is very simple and may be a bit full for some people.
The B&B provides discounted ski tickets and ski equipment.
Overall, I would be willing to stay at this B&B again if the problem of getting to the B&B can be solved.
It was nice that there was a large public bath and all the amenities were in the room, but there was no drinking water and I had to go to the vending machine on the first floor to buy it, which was a bit of a hassle. Also, it was far from the station (lol).
The room was very clean and spacious.
We got dinner from a mall about a five-minute walk away and enjoyed it leisurely in our room.
The bath was a little hot, so you didn't get cold after getting out, which is perfect for the cold winter ahead.
I made a reservation for three people including my child. There were three sets of beds prepared. I was able to sleep well at night. It was a thoughtful hotel. The breakfast was a buffet, but it wasn't very good considering the price. The front desk staff was polite.
This is my first time to Hanamaki. The scenery nearby is great. I will definitely go again if I have the chance. The food and public pool are great. Overall it is clean. The stay is very comfortable. The elders are very happy.

Very Good
The location is good for the family ski holiday with all facilities available for this ski-in/ski-out hotel. The breakfast has a good variety while the dinner options are good especially the Teppanyaki restaurant with the local beef and abalone. The Japanese restaurant was also good with various dishes to choose from. The outdoor onsen at 白樺之湯 really worth the visit after the ski and I’d recommend to enjoy at day time. We have also tried the hotel massage services and it was really good and relaxing! The only thing for improvement is that the room themselves are a bit old and maybe should consider renovations in coming years. The shops have many food and drinks and souvenirs. We also got a big pack of fireworks that we can pay together with kids just outside the hotel on the snow slope. Overall we enjoyed the stay and the slopes and ski school are magnificent!
The hotel nestled in the middle of Iwate and Akita Japan with an amazing sceneries of mountain. The accomodati on is super comfortable with an amazing view of trees and mountains covered in snow. The other highlight of this place is the culinary experience this place got to offer the course dinner and breakfast that uses locally sourced ingredients from both Akita and Iwate prefecture and the presentation of the cuisine that brings out the quality and the stories of the place. Overall an extraordinary experience and worth a trip of its own.
Value stay with good food and onsen. First room assigned was not the cleanest, but staff changed the room on request. Peaceful & scenic, ideal for a relaxing stay to enjoy the area. No stores nearby though.
The location is a little bit remote but that’s onsen hotel which gives you a serene atmosphere. It is a traditional hotel and is maintained in good condition. The staff is friendly and helpful. Free coffee and drinks round the clock. The dinner is good and exquisite. Have bus from Morioka station & ski area, but not so frequent. Have outdoor onsen. Highly recommend and good value for money
There are at least two full days worth of things to see in Hiraizumi and this hotel is centrally placed between two key attractions — Motsuji and Chusonji. Do order the breakfast and dinner since other dining options are spars. The food is especially good for dinner, with a nice array of Japanese dishes. The onsen is not top tier but pleasant.
