Daiwa Roynet Hotel Yamagata-ekimae
Nice new hotel with spacious room and nice bathroom. It is a block from the train station and bus terminal so it is easy to explore the regions such as Zao Onsen and Yamadera. The hotel restaurant is one of the best serving famous local beef and hotel guests have a decent discount. Highly recommended ...

Hotel Metropolitan Yamagata
Love the laid internal parking system, saved us from clearing the snow. Also the mall is attached t the hotel very close to many shops.

Yamagata Kokusai Hotel
I need to contact the hotel regarding a forgotten item. Could you give me their email address please? Their website did not have any way for one to contact them without furigana (if you don't know what they is, just as well).

Spacious studio apartment in the city center Maximum 6 people 1 Qsize bed 4 sofa beds / Yamagata Yamagata
It was very comfortable and in a convenient location. We had everything we needed for cooking except a chopping knife. We ended up buying a knife, which we are taking home with us. We appreciated how clean it was, also that we could use the washing machine. Thank you!
