The staff were extremely kind and helpful whenever we needed assistance (such as giving us a tour of the facilities and lending us tools to clear snow from our car). At dinner, the timing of each course being served in order was excellent—they seemed to watch our pace as we enjoyed drinks and ate slowly. I was impressed by their professional attentiveness.

The meals were delicious, the amenities were well stocked, and even our young children had a great time—it was wonderful.

I stayed for one night. I arrived much earlier than the check-in time, but since the room was ready, I was able to check in earlier than planned and take a short rest before sightseeing. The front desk staff were kind, and I had a comfortable stay. Next time, I would like to stay for multiple nights. It was very convenient as it is located very close to the station.

As a travel-loving couple, we’ve recently been taking trips where we stay at a Hotel and eat at local restaurants, so this was our first Ryokan stay in a while. We were completely satisfied with everything—the Room, the bath, and the food—and were able to relax and take our time. The Room was honestly too spacious for just two of us, but every space—the Japanese-style room, Western-style room, and bedroom—had its own charm and was wonderful. The bed was also extremely comfortable, and we slept soundly. We also enjoyed the Bluetooth speaker in the Western-style room; it had great sound quality and created an atmosphere that felt like being in a bar. The open-air bath in the Room had continuously flowing natural hot spring water, so we could soak right away after arriving and truly unwind. Dinner featured locally produced Aizu cuisine, which we thoroughly enjoyed. The recommended sake was delicious as well, and it was nice to be able to ask casually for suggestions while choosing. The pricing also felt very reasonable overall. If I had to mention one thing, breakfast was slightly disappointing: refills of rice or tea had to be requested via the in-room phone, and they took quite a while to arrive—so it would have been better if tea had been left in a pot. We were happy with the service too, and would love to visit again if we have the chance.

During the extreme heat, the location right outside Akihabara Station was especially appreciated. The Room was spacious and bright, and I was satisfied to be able to enjoy the night view. It was a bit disappointing that the skincare set is only provided if you ask at the front desk. Overall, I was satisfied and would like to stay again.

I stayed here while looking for Accommodation near the Shinjuku area during my trip to Tokyo, and I had a comfortable stay.

I came to relax during my summer vacation and enjoy a delicious breakfast. From check-in, the staff were attentive and guided me to my Room with kind, gentle communication. I chose a Room with a king-size bed. With its bright wood-toned design, it was spacious and comfortable for two people. I enjoyed watching a maiko dance, taking photos together, and having welcome drinks. The location is ideal for cultural sightseeing, with attractions such as Sanjusangendo Temple and the Kyoto National Museum nearby. The breakfast I had been looking forward to was unique: the main dish is cooked to order, while side dishes are served buffet-style. I ordered salmon Eggs Benedict, French toast, and an omelet as main dishes—all were truly delicious. It made for a wonderful breakfast time. Sanjusangendo Temple is right next door, so I visited immediately after breakfast. I also made use of the benefits of my IKYU Diamond membership, which helped make it a great summer vacation. I heard the property will be closing soon due to rebuilding plans—such a shame. If I have the chance, I would love to stay again.

Stayed with a family of four and one dog. The view from the terrace was nothing but lush greenery, and we could truly enjoy a perfect resort atmosphere. Breakfast on the terrace while listening to birds and insects was incredibly soothing. The garden was spacious, and we were able to play badminton and other games with the kids. The amenities felt thoughtfully selected to include only what’s necessary, which left a great impression. There were washrooms on both the first and second floors, with two hair dryers provided. A washer-dryer and detergent were also available, so we had no inconveniences at all. If I had to mention one thing, as others have noted, the sauna temperature is low so it may feel a bit underwhelming—but considering various factors, I can understand why it’s set up that way. The disposable slippers were nice, and everything was thoroughly cleaned down to every corner—exactly what you’d expect from Rakuten STAY Villa. There is a large nature park across the street where dogs are allowed, so morning walks were very pleasant. Dog supplies are somewhat limited: a few pee pads, two types of food bowls, wet wipes, and something like plastic bags for picking up waste are provided. There wasn’t a dedicated trash bin for dog waste, so we ended up throwing used pee pads into the kitchen trash bin; it would have been nice to have one for dogs. Our whole family agreed that we’d love to stay here again next year.

I stayed here on a business trip. It’s close to my workplace, and there’s a convenience store on the first floor, which is very convenient. For breakfast, you can choose between a bento box and a sandwich. You can eat at the venue or take it out and enjoy it in your Room or while you’re out, which is very convenient. The bacon-and-egg sandwich was filling and delicious. The female staff are always cheerful and efficient, so I can enjoy breakfast time comfortably every time. Thank you!

Self-service check-in/out and luggage storage were efficient. For dinner, there weren’t any nearby restaurants I wanted to visit, so I bought Kyushu sashimi at a supermarket and brought it back, but I forgot soy sauce. I asked at the front desk, and they kindly provided some, which I really appreciated. It was disappointing that the Room temperature couldn’t be adjusted in fine increments, and that I shared the elevator several times with what seemed to be housekeeping staff who took up space while chatting among themselves.

Online Reservations made check-in and check-out smooth, and the front desk staff were very helpful. In addition to a table power strip with USB ports, there was also a desk lamp with wireless charging, which was very convenient. The Room was spacious, and the bathroom fixtures—including the bathtub—have been renovated; I’d love to stay again.

I’ve stayed here before—have the rooms been renovated? It felt like the bathrooms and other water areas were cleaner than last time, which made my stay very comfortable. I think the complimentary breakfast offers a satisfying amount and selection, especially for women. They also store luggage before check-in and after check-out, which is a huge help since the location near Ueno Station makes it easy to end up with lots of shopping bags. I’ll definitely stay here again when I’m in town.

We stayed with three children, and the Room was spacious and comfortable.

I had a Multiple Night Stay. The room was cleaned thoroughly every day, so I was able to stay comfortably. When a group came in, the staff asked if I could shift my breakfast time, and they also made announcements and posted notices so we wouldn’t overlap, which allowed me to enjoy breakfast at a relaxed pace. However, one thing: breakfast was buffet-style, but I didn’t realize drinks were available until the last day—after I had finished eating—when I heard staff informing other guests. That part was a little disappointing. There wasn’t much noise, and parking was easy as well. Personally, I would like to stay at AZ again if I have the chance.

I’ve stayed at container hotels before, but this was my first time experiencing one where everything from check-in onward is fully self-service. Some parts are a bit hard to understand, but overall I think it’s good. What I personally liked was having a mini kitchen and a washing machine inside the Room. Also, like other container hotels, there’s a microwave in the Room as well, so you don’t have to keep going out of your Room and there’s no waiting your turn (especially great for business trips). What bothered me was that I couldn’t find a replacement bath mat, so I wasn’t able to change it during my Multiple Night Stay. Also, the kitchen faucet is positioned too close to the front edge, so if you’re not careful when using it, water can splash onto your clothes or feet. In addition, vibrations from the outdoor unit of the air conditioner resonated quite a bit inside the Room and felt slightly unpleasant. Despite these complaints, I’m very satisfied overall because with container hotels you can park close by and there’s no waiting for elevators—so it feels much like staying at home.

I stayed for one night for my child’s appointment. I called several times with questions about my Reservation and changes, and each time the staff were courteous and helpful, which put me at ease. On site as well, they kindly assisted with arranging a taxi, allowing me to have a smooth stay. Breakfast was also delicious. The amenities were somewhat limited, but there was a convenience store nearby, making the location very convenient. I would like to stay here again if I have the opportunity. Thank you very much.

This was my third stay. It’s always fully booked, so I make my Reservation early. As always, the scallops, turban shells, clams, and hard clams were delicious and plentiful. I ate right up until the end of the time limit, but if I had to ask for one thing, it would be even better with oysters as well. This time I also enjoyed fishing in the sea right in front of the property. I caught a rockfish using a jighead minnow lure. I’d love to come back again next time.

The weather was bad on the day of our stay, but the wide eaves in front of the hotel were very helpful. The accommodation was clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the precise temperature control. There was nothing particularly lacking. It would have been even better if the exterior looked a bit newer.

There were more cars than I expected, but the dining area and baths were not very crowded. We stayed on Friday and Saturday, and it didn’t seem like there were many families. Everything was smooth and consistently comfortable throughout our stay. It was a Ryokan I would definitely like to visit again. Thank you very much.

It was my first time staying here! The front desk staff were very welcoming at check-in, and although the Room felt a bit old, it was spacious and comfortable! I used the large public bath and the private bath—both were excellent! I was also satisfied with the meals! I’d love to come again.
