Kamikoani-mura Hotels

"Staff are extremely kind and professional. Rooms are older style but spotless. Was a phenomenal value, great location and stress free."

"Facilities and staff are top notch. The price is also very competitive. "

"This was an emergency stay when the train lines shut down because of heavy rains. This property was across the beautiful lily fields in bloom at the time. One interesting thing about the Akita Castle Hotel is that it is a repository for famous artists and artworks. It has an original Picasso! Access to the airport is easy as there is a local bus which stops at the hotel."

"Excellent location, helpful staff, great views from our 10th floor room and a very good price when booked 1 month ahead.."

"Kashintei Shirahama is definitely one of the best Japanese ryokans we have visited. Location wise it's perfectly located right by Lake Tazawa, 30 minutes from Kakunodate, ski resort, Dakigaeri Valley, Tatsuko statue. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful, especially Nori-san and Minori. Whenever we hit a snag with our communications, Google Translate would hop in. The first floor is where the private onsen and public onsen are located. The rooms are on 3rd,4th and 5th, with 5 units on each floor. We got the room with 2 double beds. We ordered the half board option so we have Japanese breakfast and kaiseki dinner for 2 days. There's no duplicate dish, and we got to enjoy many Akita specialty such as Kiritanpo, Hinai chicken, Inaniwa udon. Every single dish is exquisite in taste and is a piece of art. The meals are served at a private dining room. You can also use the private onsen free off charge, it's first come first serve for 40 minutes max. There's a free parking lot across there street and elevator, so it's not of a concern with moving the luggage to the room. The bed is very comfortable, we slept like a baby. It's very relaxing vibe."

"The food was very delicious and the staff were very supportive."

"Much better all around compared to other Route Inn properties. "

"A bit of a walk to the station but if you have a car it's fine, plenty of food options down the road and easy to get around."

"Very good hospitality."
