아니 하타 역 (Ani Hata yeok) × 시설・설비의 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

I was worried about the heat, but the temperature dropped at just the right time, making for a very pleasant stay. There was no mention of it at check-in, but it seems our Room was upgraded, and I was truly impressed by how spacious and beautiful it was. The afternoon tea and breakfast were also excellent, and we were very satisfied. All of the staff were extremely kind, so we could stay comfortably. I definitely want to stay here again. Thank you for taking care of us for two days. Thank you very much.

The welcome service offered plum wine, black vinegar, juice, sweets, and ice cream. We arrived early and were able to relax until dinner even after taking a bath. We stayed in a Room with an open-air bath, and with free-flowing natural hot spring water, we could enjoy the Onsen anytime. The Room was excellent. The food was buffet-style, featuring local vegetables and specialties, along with many delicious dishes made with health in mind. I don’t often get the chance to visit Akita, but this is an Accommodation I would definitely like to return to. Thank you very much.

I found this Facility on IKYU and liked it so much that I made a Reservation. Just as expected, I thoroughly enjoyed the Facility, the meals, and the Onsen (ceramic bath). During a conversation with the staff at dinner, we talked about Hachimantai’s Dragon Eye. They told me they had gone there after borrowing rental boots and that it was wonderful. So I went the next day right away. Like Zao Okama last year, I was moved by the breathtaking scenery. It was a truly great stay—enjoying both the magnificent nature and the delicious meals at the Facility. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us.

I was surprised at how silky-smooth the Onsen water felt. The Maezawa beef shabu-shabu for dinner was also exquisite—so good it truly moved me. There is no elevator, only stairs, but since the entrance is on the second floor and the building has three floors in total, it didn’t bother me. I liked it so much that I made a Reservation again for the following month.

Ever since our first stay two years ago, we’ve loved this place and have been coming back every year for a two-night Multiple Night Stay—three years in a row. It seems seasonal, but they had a festival-style stamp rally for kids, which was a great touch and kept our child happily entertained. It also happens to be our child’s birthday around this time, so celebrating here has become our family tradition. The Onsen temperature, the Room size, and overall layout all feel “just right.” There’s also a late-night tantanmen service we always look forward to—though this time we were too full after dinner to enjoy it, which was a shame! The building seems to have some history, but everything is spotless and well maintained, so it never feels old. Above all, it’s incredibly comfortable—a wonderful Accommodation where our whole family can truly relax. Whenever we go to Akita, this is the only place we choose.

We received many joyful photos of our grandchildren, and my spouse and I are extremely satisfied. The friendliness of the international staff seemed to double the fun, which made us very happy. Thank you very much!

Although the building is old, the interior has been thoughtfully renovated and is very comfortable! We stayed as a family of four, and both the bathroom and toilet were spotless, and the futons were fluffy! Since it’s right in front of the station, getting out and about was easy—we were really happy. The parking lot is also spacious. We come to Kazuno City every year, so we’ll stay here again.

A favorite place we keep returning to as a family. It feels like going back home. We love the food and the warm personalities of the owners. This time, we stayed to celebrate our second daughter's birthday, and the owner kindly joined in the celebration, which made our daughter very happy. Thank you so much, and we will visit again!

The meals were very delicious. In Tokyo, I believe it is worth 30,000 yen. The autumn leaves were also beautiful.

I had a relaxing stay at this locally-run accommodation. Since I visited Matsukawa Onsen beforehand, I didn’t use the bus. Thank you for accommodating me as a solo traveler. It was my first time at Appi Kogen, and it’s truly an amazing resort area. The atmosphere of the accommodation was also very pleasant. I didn’t get a chance to talk with the host this time, so please chat with me during my next stay!

Thank you for taking care of us on our ski trip. It had been a while since we last stayed at this Accommodation, and we found the charming Western-style building very relaxing, especially with the fireplace in the restaurant. The building is a bit old, but the Room and bathrooms were kept very clean. The hamburger steak dinner was delicious, and on the second night of our Multiple Night Stay we had roast beef. The portions were a little small, so on the second night we bought a late-night snack at a convenience store. On New Year’s Eve, we could also see the countdown fireworks from our Room. It’s quite far from Tokyo so we can’t visit often, but we’d like to stay here again when we go to Appi.

This was my third visit, but it was my first time experiencing rainbow trout fishing and firewood chopping. I was surprised that such valuable experiences, which could easily be offered as optional paid activities, were included in the original Accommodation Fee. The foil-grilled rainbow trout I caught myself was absolutely delicious! The staff were incredibly kind, spoke warmly with smiles, and their gentle demeanor created a soothing atmosphere. When I couldn't figure out how to use the BBQ grill for dinner and the charcoal went out once, the staff kindly assisted me, for which I am very grateful. Also, the breakfast the next morning was amazing—everything tasted fantastic! It was unfortunate that the outdoor bath couldn't be used due to renovation work, but I definitely want to stay here again next time.

I stayed again last week. I was planning to ski in Appi, but I gave up on Saturday because of the rain, and on Sunday the lifts stopped operating at 11:00 due to strong winds. Unfortunately, the weather wasn’t great. In that sense it was disappointing, but there’s nothing you can do about the weather… Still, Step’s meals are consistently great value for money. I especially love the soups. The turnip soup from a few weeks ago was excellent, and I think it was porcini mushroom soup? The mushroom soup was delicious too. The grilled chicken is also very good. A woman who stayed for the first time last week was impressed as well and said it was delicious. She seems to have become a big fan—“the only choice in Appi!” Even if some of the Facility feels a bit old, that’s part of its charm. The bath temperature might be a little low at times? It feels just right for women. If you like it really hot, it might not be enough. That’s about all if you look closely. I’m satisfied. I’ll stay again.
