I was on a business trip to Sendai and had the day off beforehand, so I decided to visit Zao for the first time and happened to find this place by chance. It was wonderful. My husband was truly impressed by a sake called “14th Generation,” which he had never tried before. Not only that, but the person who explained the appeal of sake had incredible knowledge and also introduced us to many delicious sakes from different regions—I even took notes. That’s one of the joys of traveling. The room interior and hot spring were excellent as well, but I feel that meeting people is what really enriches a trip. This was exactly that kind of inn. I would love to visit again. We left early in the morning and may have caused some inconvenience—thank you very much.

I had a very comfortable 3-day, 2-night stay in a quiet setting. The meals were delicious, and the nightly mini concerts in the lobby were truly relaxing. As I was traveling solo, it wasn’t cheap, but the Facility and the quality of the cuisine more than justified it. If I had to mention one thing, the toilet paper in the Room was thin and a bit inconvenient to use. It was a wonderful and comfortable Hotel that will likely make me want to return again in summer.

The food, drinks, and hospitality were outstanding, and we were extremely satisfied. Every dish looked beautiful and tasted amazing, and there were also unique alcoholic beverages you can only enjoy here. All drinks were free, which was a delightful surprise. The staff’s warm hospitality was wonderful as well, and we had a comfortable and enjoyable stay. It was a little disappointing that there was no open-air bath, but the Onsen was excellent; we enjoyed the large public bath as well as three private family baths, each with its own charm. On our way home, we received photos from dinner and freshly baked, delicious croissants as souvenirs. We are grateful for the heartfelt hospitality until the very end. Next time, we would love to try the winter and spring dishes too.

It was an extremely satisfying trip. The hospitality was refined, courteous, and pleasantly well-balanced. In particular, the veteran staff member with sommelier credentials made exquisite selections of sake and wine, allowing us to truly enjoy lively meals and conversation. The plaster walls in the room created a comfortable atmosphere that felt soothing. We would definitely love to return again. Thank you very much.

We stayed as a family gathering with relatives, including five preschool children. The entire Accommodation (lobby, Room, etc.) was kept very clean, so our stay was comfortable. Since the children were constantly full of energy, we requested a private dining room for meals. You provided a very spacious room, and the food was refined and delicious, using local ingredients. Everyone’s hospitality was wonderful and welcoming, and we would like to stay here again for our next family gathering. Thank you very much for your thoughtful care in many ways.

Last year, I was impressed by the variety of Onsen and the fresh vegetables, so I stayed again this year. The Room we chose had a bedroom on the second floor and a wonderful layout. We were thrilled to spot a wild squirrel from the balcony, even if only for a short time. I heard the chef has changed, so the overall impact was slightly different, but everything was delicious, with fresh vegetables featured throughout the menu. The morning tomato juice was just as fresh as ever and outstanding. Not only is the Onsen excellent, but there is also a wide selection of drinks available, making this Accommodation more satisfying than any other Onsen Accommodation. It’s a bit far from Tokyo, but I would love to stay again to relax with superb Onsen and fresh vegetables.

I stayed here with the Zao Snow Monsters package in Shiroishi-Zao. The hot spring was excellent and very refreshing. The meals were very generous, and I ended up leaving a lot. I would like an option with smaller portions.

This time I took the Shinkansen to Sendai and used the free Shuttle Service bus from Sendai Station for a round trip. After arriving, I had a beer, and at dinner I ate and drank as well. I also got to use the pool, so I was very satisfied. Since I was traveling alone, my Room was a single and felt a bit small, but next time I'd like to go with friends and try staying in a larger Room. I'd like to visit again.

A prior Review mentioned that there were many foreign staff, and it felt like most of the staff were non-Japanese. However, their Japanese was very good and the service was fine, so it didn’t bother me. Amenities are placed in the lobby and you take what you need yourself. They had plenty, including toner, makeup remover, shampoo, etc. You can drink coffee and tea for free at the cafe corner, which was a nice service. The meals were mainly Japanese cuisine and were delicious. Personally, I loved the stylish and cute small plates used for the dishes. The bath was pleasant too, but I felt there weren’t enough hair dryers. Especially for women who need more time to dry their hair, I ended up thinking I’d have to wait my turn… and that it might be faster to go back to my Room with wet hair and dry it there. The view from the Room was great and was the best part. The mountains and river looked beautiful—wonderful scenery.

We had a truly enjoyable time. The Facility was exceptionally clean and well maintained. The tent had both heating and air conditioning, and perhaps because it was Golden Week, the outdoor temperature was also ideal. The meal portions were just right. If I had to mention one thing, since it’s a tent, voices do carry. There were times when we noticed the neighboring dog and a baby crying, but it was within an acceptable range. This was our first glamping experience, and it became a wonderful memory.

We stayed at Tamaya Ryokan during Silver Week, and the rates were still very reasonable. Near the front desk there is a large public bath, and a little farther away there is a private bath available 24 hours a day. Both were on the hotter side with a slight iron scent, had plenty of water flowing directly from the source, and left our skin feeling smooth afterward—wonderful hot springs. The meals were all handmade with an impressive number of dishes. Everything was delicious. In particular, I tried tsukudani made with “inago” (grasshoppers?) for the first time in my life—its slightly bitter flavor and texture were quite unique… The croissants we bought as souvenirs were also lightly sweet and wonderfully flaky—highly recommended. After check-in we also received bathing tickets for “Kami-no-Yu / Kotobuki-no-Yu,” so we took a short walk to Kami-no-Yu about two minutes from the ryokan. There was even a footbath outside, and it really captured the atmosphere of this hot spring town. The next day after breakfast, we took another casual stroll in our yukata and stopped by a café called Enso; both the coffee and gateau chocolat were exceptional. We relaxed from check-in at 3:00 PM until check-out at 10:00 AM at Tamaya Ryokan. This was our first visit to Togatta Onsen, and we loved its calm, welcoming vibe—it’s become one of our favorite places. It’s about a five-hour drive from home for us, but we definitely want to come again.

Thank you for your hospitality. Each dish was beautifully presented, and we thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The Zao cream cheese gnocchi was especially delicious, and the sauce was so good that we ended up dipping bread into it! Despite causing some inconvenience, you handled everything kindly and professionally. We look forward to staying with you again in the future.

Stayed after visiting Matsushima! The kids enjoyed making prayer beads at Entsuin Temple. We also lined up for 30 minutes before opening to try the famous Sendai beef tongue, and it was worth the wait—delicious! Check-in and check-out times being separate was a bit inconvenient. We received a breakfast coupon and took out drinks on our way back—thank you! However, it would have been even better if that discount could be applied to the Room rate instead. The Onsen was amazing and left us impressed. It would have been perfect if there were one more bedroom. Unfortunately, we couldn't see the stars due to rain, but the kids loved the large bed—thank you so much!

Although we arrived later than planned and felt uneasy in the dark due to the rain, we managed to reach safely. Having streetlights or lights in the parking area might have made parking easier. The room had a thoughtful message, and the lights and heating were already on, which made us feel at ease. Thank you very much. The Onsen was perfect, especially since it was cold. As it rained the next day as well, we chose to relax in the room and enjoyed soaking in the Onsen from the morning. We were very satisfied with both the atmosphere of the room and its facilities. Next time, we hope to enjoy dining on the terrace on a sunny day. Thank you for your hospitality!
