Enjoy free-flowing natural hot spring Onsen and trick art at the foot of Mount Akita-Komagatake

Tazawako Highlands, at the foot of Mt. Akita-Komagatake, is wrapped in crisp, clear air. Our Hotel is located just before you enter Nyuto Onsen Village, along the single road that climbs from Lake Tazawa toward Mt. Akita-Komagatake. Enjoy natural hot spring water flowing directly from the source in our rustic open-air bath and large public bath. Inside the Hotel, we are showcasing trick art themed around Akita Prefecture on “One of the largest in any Hotel! Trick Art Street!!,” the first attraction of its kind in the Tazawako area. *Day-use bathing is suspended until further notice.

  • The food was excellent.

    I had heard great things about the food, and I was really looking forward to it—it truly impressed me. I enjoyed kiritanpo in an individual hot pot. There were also game dishes, all prepared deliciously. It was my first time in a while to have hatahata. I stayed for two nights and never got tired of the meals; I enjoyed them throughout. The staff were efficient and left a very positive impression.

  • I’m full. True to Lake Tazawa, the rental bikes are Dora Dragon.

    Dinner featured local dishes such as kiritanpo hot pot and bear meat. There was no sliced sashimi, but the DIY seafood mixed rice was delicious. Late-night snack: tantan ramen. I was completely full.　They also offer a Shuttle Service from Tazawako Station, and they kindly explained the available time slots.　However, the bicycle rental at Lake Tazawa was terrible. Even though the road was closed due to a landslide, they said it was still possible to go around. When I came back, they insisted they “didn’t know anything” and acted as if it wasn’t their problem. They refunded the rental fee—then grabbed the cash I handed over and wouldn’t let go, threatening me in a harsh voice: “You rode it for some time—are you saying you won’t pay?” Other rental bike users I passed on the way (a Japanese person and a white woman) may also have been pressured into paying. When I explained what happened at the tourist information center, they said, “We have informed them about road closures and reopenings.”

Large Public Bath

Soak in a natural Onsen at Tazawako Highlands, surrounded by crisp, clear air.

Tazawako Plateau is surrounded by crisp, clear air. The open-air bath and large public bath, wrapped in beautiful seasonal colors, feature Onsen water rich in metasilicic acid, a natural moisturizing component. Enjoy an Onsen with three beauty benefits: “bicarbonate,” which helps remove skin impurities and old keratin; and “sulfur,” which promotes circulation and boosts metabolism from within.

Restaurant

The restaurant has been renovated.

A new dining venue will open on December 28, 2024. We will offer a buffet featuring the Hotel’s original dishes and traditional cuisine, incorporating locally sourced Akita ingredients and fermented foods.

Sample Meal Options

Savor

We offer a buffet featuring dishes made with plenty of local ingredients, including Akita specialties such as Kiritanpo hot pot and Inaniwa udon, as well as Hinai-jidori chicken—one of Japan’s three most renowned native chicken breeds. At our dinner live kitchen, we especially recommend the freshly grilled beef steak!

Open-air bath

Relaxation

The lush natural surroundings at the foot of Mt. Komagatake—beech forests, wild birds, and the rustle of wind through the trees—are a one-of-a-kind treasure that opens the door to an extraordinary escape.

    Hello, this is Kamenoi Hotel Tazawako.

    As we begin to feel the first signs of autumn, Tazawako offers many seasonal delights—autumn leaves and Onsen among them. This time, however, we would especially like to introduce “Akita cuisine.”

    Kamenoi Hotel Tazawako was ranked No. 2 in The whole country in “Top 20 Accommodations Popular for Autumn Food Trips & Local Cuisine,” announced by HotelBank, a media outlet sharing information on Hotels and Ryokans.

    This ranking is based on an analysis of guest Reviews that mentioned local cuisine at dinner. Many guests have praised our dinner offerings featuring Akita specialties such as Kiritanpo hot pot, Inaniwa udon, and hatahata (sandfish), letting you savor flavors unique to Akita.

    “If I’m traveling to Akita, I want to eat something truly Akita!”
    For those guests, we recommend our dinner buffet filled with Akita’s best local flavors—featuring regional ingredients and local dishes alongside seasonal tastes.

    [Autumn Limited Menu]
    ・Bear mushroom soup
    ・Roast “Akita Horoyoi Pork” with red wine sauce
    ・Steamed autumn vegetable salad with iburigakko dressing
    ・Simmered taro and thick fried tofu
    ・Pasta with chicken and autumn eggplant with Hachimantai mushrooms
    ・Herb butter-baked autumn salmon and potatoes
    ・Mountain-style temaki sushi (hand-rolled sushi)

    After your meal, unwind in the natural Onsen of the Tazawako Highlands.

    The Onsen at Kamenoi Hotel Tazawako is also known as the “Triple Beauty Bath,” containing minerals believed to help promote circulation, moisturize the skin, and gently remove old keratin.
    Soaking in an Onsen in the crisp autumn air is pure bliss.

    This autumn, enjoy a journey of “tasting Akita” at Kamenoi Hotel Tazawako.

    We look forward to welcoming you.
