บริเวณรอบๆ Zao Heartland × โรงแรม·เรียวกัง ที่มีการประเมินน้ำพุร้อนและอ่างอาบน้ำในระดับสูง

My companion uses a wheelchair, but thanks to the thoughtful support from all the staff, we were able to stay comfortably. The staff member who assisted us was kind, easy to talk to, and truly wonderful (I would be happy if they could assist us again next time). We will definitely stay again. Thank you very much.

It was an extremely satisfying trip. The service was refined, courteous, and pleasantly discreet. In particular, the veteran staff member with sommelier credentials made superb selections of sake and wine, which made our meals and conversations all the more enjoyable. The plaster walls in the room created a comfortable atmosphere that felt truly soothing. We would love to return again. Thank you very much.

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 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.

From the Shuttle Service from the parking lot to the attentive hospitality, meals, and everything in between, everything was perfect and made for a truly comfortable stay. While many places in recent years have reduced staff and their service feels lacking, this long-established Ryokan showed us the true essence of thoughtful hospitality—anticipating every need. As long as I am able, I would love to return again on my next opportunity.

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.

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.

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.

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).

A Room with an open-air bath, great views, and a wonderful atmosphere. We also appreciated being able to enjoy free drinks such as beer. Both dinner and breakfast were satisfying in both quantity and quality. The relaxed dining atmosphere was excellent! The staff’s thoughtful hospitality was also very pleasant.

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.

The price was reasonable compared to others, and it was great that the Room had a private Onsen. However, there was an issue: the sewage smell was extremely strong, which was disappointing. The odor came up from under the bathroom doorway and from the sink, making me feel unwell, and that was very unfortunate. (Later, I received an email from the owner explaining the cause and apologizing, but I wish it had been checked and inspected before my stay.) Also, since this plan was No Meals Included, it would have been helpful to have aluminum foil, plastic wrap, and a measuring cup for the rice cooker. Because the Accommodation is located in the mountains, I recommend arriving during daylight hours. There is nothing around it, so it was very quiet. I would like to stay again.

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.

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 traveled all the way from Okayama to visit our son, who was transferred to Sendai in April. Accompanied by my eldest son, wife, and her parents from Shikoku, we stayed here after a trip to Mount Zao. The hot spring water made our skin feel smooth, and the meals—especially the local vegetables—were delicious. We had a wonderful time and would love to stay here 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.

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!

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.

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.

You can enjoy a carefully prepared meal served in your Room at a relaxed pace. The Facility is old, but it is clean and felt like coming home to my parents’ house. From the window, the view of the mountains of Aone and the sound of birds made me feel refreshed. I would definitely like to visit again.
