We stayed at this ryokan & thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The ryokan was quite modern with good facilities & amenities. Our room was a jr suite with private open air onsen which was marvellous. We had very high quality beddings & slept well. The communal public bath areas were also very nice. Parking was a breeze, just in front of the property on the other side of the road. The breakfast was good with many dishes. We would definitely return

The staff was very welcoming. We loved the craft beer happy hour and our private outdoor bath. We also loved the local people we met eating outside of the hotel and shopping for pottery. We stayed for the proximity to Zao Aki resort. We didnt use it but there was a free shuttle for that.

Excellent place. Great free drinks and snacks in the lobby. The staff were awesome. Breakfast was a traditional Japanese breakfast - very filling and varied daily. The twin room was a bit small and the mattresses a bit firm but that was the only downside. Would come here again.

Staff insist that there's dinner included when check in which I doubt. I go ahead with dinner even though was not feeling too great and did not finish the whole meal course. Upon check out I was then told that I have to pay $3300 yen for dinner by another staff. The check in staff did not convey the cost of the dinner at at all.

豪華な高級旅館ではないが、温かみがありゆっくりできる宿です。女性グループでの利用なので、ワイワイすごくことができた。 女性の受付の方は、とても親しみがあり好印象です。 オールインクルーシブを案内され、部屋に入る前にクラフトビールを１杯。なくなるとすぐに補充してくれます。　 風呂上がりのビールも最高です。 部屋には、近くのお店のお饅頭が置いてあり、お土産の参考になりました。 温泉は屋上に内風呂と露天あり、露天風呂が高温だと内風呂はぬるめ。内風呂が高温だと露天風呂がぬるめとなっていた。 夕食は、牛、鴨と肉好きの私は大満足。 朝食は、ビュッフェで、山形ならではの食材が並び、お米も美味しくてご飯がすすみます。こだわりの朝食でした。 また利用したいお宿です。 残念なのは、かみのやま温泉がとても静かなこと。また、賑わってたくれることを願います。
