Hotel Metropolitan Yamagata

I stayed here for sightseeing to see the Zao snow monsters. After getting off the Shinkansen, I could leave my luggage right away, and there was no need to transfer or travel from the station to the Hotel, so it was completely stress-free. You can also watch the Shinkansen and local trains from the Hotel window, and I had a comfortable stay and was able to relax without any inconvenience.

It was very convenient to be directly connected to the station, making it easy to get around with luggage. I arrived by Shinkansen and checked in right away. I could leave my luggage in the Room and head out. The guest Room was not too small, clean, and comfortable. The air conditioning (heating) was a bit too warm; even at the lowest temperature it still felt hot, and even after turning it off it remained slightly warm, but I think that’s better than being cold. Also, the pillow was small (Japanese size) and not ideal for relaxing in bed, but when I asked the front desk they brought an extra one. Thank you. Overall, it was a cozy stay without the cramped feeling of some newly built Hotels these days.
