I usually stay at a Business Hotel in Akita City, but I’d been feeling worn out lately, so I wanted to rely on the Onsen for the first time and decided to stay here.I stayed in the new building. The Room was clean and spacious—almost too nice for one person.The Onsen water was smooth with a slightly salty taste, and together with the sauna it really helped me recover from fatigue!Breakfast was served in a large dining area. A group of guests was a bit noisy (I would have appreciated partitions or private rooms—this is my only complaint).It was buffet-style, with plenty of local dishes, all delicious and very satisfying. I especially recommend the tofu.I’ll definitely stay again!
Yahoo!トラベルユー... 6/17/2026This was my first visit to Akita, and staying here was the right choice. First, it’s conveniently located at a reasonable distance from the airport, and the price is affordable. The building is spacious and relaxing, and the Onsen was excellent with a smooth, silky feel. The souvenir shop also had a great selection of items. Of course, the meals—including optional add-ons—were well designed to let you enjoy local specialties, and the female staff who served us were friendly and welcoming. I can recommend this Accommodation to anyone visiting Akita.

Introduction of the Accommodation

Motoyu Akita Onsen Satomi
Satomi Onsen in Akita is a Property located 4 km from JR Akita Station, nestled in a tranquil rural area along the upstream riverside of the famous entertainment district "Kawabata." Onsen first emerged in the Sogawa area of Akita City in 1913, over 100 years ago. Renowned for its healing properties that warm the body, relieve fatigue, and leave the skin smooth, the Onsen has a rich history, including a flourishing period as a therapeutic bath site, a forced closure during wartime, and its revival in 1961 as "Satomi no Yu." Affectionately known as "Satomi Onsen" by Akita residents, our Property boasts the mysterious natural Onsen that contributed to the creation of "Akita Bijin" (Akita beauties), featuring "Sodium Chloride Bicarbonate Spring" and "Sodium Chloride Spring," along with seasonal cuisine that we take pride in.

Mysterious Onsen Satomi no Yu
Satomi no Yu is a sodium chloride hot spring. Known as the "beauty bath" for its skin-smoothing properties and the "warming bath" for its long-lasting warmth. Enjoy the gentle charm of this renowned hot spring.
