A welcoming accommodation proud to serve local cuisine made with ingredients from Yamagata.

Awarded a spot in the "Top 100 Hotels and Ryokans in Japan Chosen by Professionals" for 40 consecutive years. Our cuisine, featuring A5-grade Yonezawa Beef and Yamagata Beef, Japan's top-rated rice "Tsuyahime," and fresh vegetables directly sourced from contracted farmers, is highly praised by our guests. The lobby exudes rich Japanese ambiance, and there is a Kyoto-style restaurant on-site. Within the premises, you can find the remains of a 1,300-year-old Sue ware kiln, which is the origin of the establishment's name and is designated as a cultural property of the prefecture. Guests can enjoy painting on Raku ware, and the gallery inside the facility displays over 3,000 works by prominent figures from various fields. In addition to the open-air bath on the first floor, there is a private open-air bath on the third floor for complete privacy, and an observation open-air bath on the eighth floor offering views of the Zao mountain range to the east. Our cuisine highlights the local flavors of Yamagata, with specialties such as Yonezawa Beef steak, sukiyaki, Onsen-steamed shabu-shabu, and Yamagata's famous imoni stew, all of which are highly popular.

  • I was very satisfied with the newly renovated room. The fresh scent of new tatami was especially pleasant. The meal also came with a careful explanation and was very satisfying—especially the sukiyaki beef, which was more generous than I expected. The free drinks were a pleasant surprise as well. Breakfast was delicious, too. Of course the hot springs were great, and the large public bath was spacious and relaxing—completely satisfying. I enjoyed three baths in total: before dinner, after dinner, and in the morning—it couldn’t have been better. I would definitely like to stay again if I have the chance.

  • It was a very spacious and impressive property. The guest room was clean, and the dining area was also clean. However, the dining area was quite far away, so we had to walk around the facility with a pregnant guest and a child. In hindsight, we might have been better off choosing in-room dining.The bath was very relaxing, and we enjoyed the pottery painting and kiln tour as well. All of the staff were kind, but it was disappointing that champagne was served at the start of dinner on the second day (we had informed them in advance that a pregnant guest would be staying).Overall, it was a very satisfying trip. Thank you very much.
