Atsushio Onsen Yamagataya

The onsen, sauna, included dinner and breakfast, and Japanese-style room perfectly matched our preferences. Although we initially booked a mountain-side room, we were upgraded to a spacious room on the village side. It was extremely comfortable. The onsen was very relaxing, and I enjoyed it several times. As mentioned in the reviews, the meals were excellent—absolutely delicious! The sake we ordered paired perfectly with the food, allowing us to savor every bite. Both dinner and breakfast were satisfying with generous portions. Also, I enjoyed the veggie beer; while it might not suit everyone's taste, I personally liked it. With attentive service from the hotel staff, delicious meals, and a wonderful onsen experience, this stay was truly refreshing.

The food, Onsen, and room were made with good materials, but some aspects of the Facility and minor details were a bit disappointing.Food The ingredients were excellent, and dinner was delicious. The service was also kind and attentive. However, breakfast felt quite minimal. It was prepared all at once without any coverings like plastic wrap, leaving the food exposed, which felt a bit disheartening. There didn’t seem to be many freshly cooked dishes either. The rice was very tasty.Onsen The water quality is excellent. However, in the larger outdoor bath area, it seemed that you might be visible from nearby houses when standing or moving towards the bath due to its layout. It felt like this aspect wasn’t well-considered in the design.Room The new room was very clean and modern; however, there was no closet for some reason. Coats had to be hung in the middle of the room on a rack provided there—this setup felt awkward as long coats couldn’t fit properly either due to space limitations in that spot. Additionally, while there’s a sink inside the room itself, its faucet is positioned high enough that water splashes every time it’s used.Although not mentioned explicitly beforehand during booking info—it appeared wheelchair-accessible overall yet still contained peculiar inconveniences unrelated-to accessibility needs themselves! Making adjustments ensuring universal usability would enhance everyone’s experience greatly!
