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.

I stayed here again for the first time in five years. The food and service felt much improved, which was a pleasant surprise. For example, the rice at breakfast was excellent—among the best I’ve had in Yamagata. I also enjoyed chatting with the staff and had a great time. I’d like to visit again soon.

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.

We arrived a little after 3:00 pm, and they were waiting to welcome us at the entrance, which gave the place a classic, long-established feel. The building has a sense of history, and the Showa-era atmosphere was very comfortable for me. There was an abundance of food, and as seniors we couldn’t finish it all—what a shame (laugh).

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.

Even during Silver Week, we stayed at Tamaya Ryokan at a very reasonable rate. 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 abundant free-flowing water, and left our skin feeling smooth after bathing—wonderful hot springs. 　The meals were homemade with an impressive variety of dishes. Everything was delicious. In particular, I tried “inago (grasshopper?) tsukudani” for the first time in my life. The slightly bitter taste and texture were truly 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 had the perfect hot-spring-town atmosphere. 　The next day after breakfast, we went for another casual stroll in our yukata and stopped by the café “Ensou.” The coffee and gateau chocolat we had there were exceptional. 　We relaxed thoroughly from check-in at 3:00 PM until check-out at 10:00 AM at Tamaya Ryokan. 　It was our first visit to Togatta Onsen; the town’s atmosphere was lovely and calming, and it quickly became one of our favorite places. 　It’s about a five-hour drive from home, but we definitely want to come again.

Everything was excellent, including the surrounding environment. The staff and the proprietress were all impeccable in their hospitality. Thank you very much. We will visit again in November to see the autumn leaves.
