"This was an excellent onsen hotel (we've stayed in quite a few). The room we had (Japanese style room with open air bath) was spacious, even for a family of four and included a small garden area as well as the bath. The food was exceptional - and served by incredibly friendly and helpful staff who our daughters loved engaging with. There were toys for the children that could be taken to the room and they also enjoyed watching the goldfish that swim in the indoor 'river' in the reception area....

"The hotel located nearby the train station. It is combined with the annex hotel and guests could enjoy the onsen in both hotels. I did not aware that my room was not contained with bath room and we need to shower in the onsen area. There is private onsen in first come first serve in the annex hotel. Anyway, it is a good hotel with comfortable and relax environment. I had a good sleep there. The breakfast also very rich and had variety food. "

Richmond Hotel Moriokaekimae

10/10 Excellent

"Great location near Morioka Station. Lots of place to eat nearby."

Dormy Inn Morioka Hot Springs

10/10 Excellent

"他の場所でもドーミーインを利用しましたが岩手県盛岡市の今回のが一番よかったです女性だけのお風呂のコードやランドリーも女性専用があり安心でしたお掃除もすごくよくゆき届いていて皆さんとても感じがよく何を聞いてもすぐに対応してくれました朝ごはんも種類が多く盛岡冷麺もその場で作っていただけたりとにかくすべて美味しかったです盛岡に来たらこのホテルにまた泊まりたいと思います"

Hotel Shion

10/10 Excellent

"Booked it as a place to relax and enjoy. It was a 20 min drive from the morioka station. The place was next to a river and was nice and peaceful. The hotel had 2 onsens - one on the 2nd (larger) and the 3rd. Visited the smaller one on the 3rd which also has an outdoor option, which was nice and peaceful at night. The family room on the top floor had marvellous views of the river and mountains. Rooms were clean and spacious. Futons were prepared when you go for dinner. Kaisekei dinner was excellent as well with different menus every day for our 4 day stay. Breakfast was the same everyday, but the variety was large enough. There were special activities at the hotel every night for about 2 months which were quite memorable. It the special mention must be for the staff. They are really affable and helpful and remember all the small details, like when you have food preferences (wife could not eat raw food), when your last day - and these were servers at the meal times.. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay and would recommend for a place to just relax and chill"

Crowne Plaza Resort Appi Kogen by IHG

8/10 Good

"A nice set-up for a ski-in/ski-out resort. My kids also had great lessons with an English instructor. Getting to Appi Kogen was also quite easy with the buses from Morioka Station. We were also bumped up to a larger room, which was very comfortable, especially by Japanese standards. That was also great. However….. The only drawback was the very limited food options, especially for dinner with young kids, who don’t eat very much anyway. We live in Japan, so we’re accustomed to Japanese portions, local izakayas, bentos, etc. But this was challenging. It was either spend 20,000¥-30,000¥ for a mediocre buffet, where the kids just wanted a few bites of the simplest food. Or a yakiniku restaurant that would’ve been 30,000¥ - 40,000¥ for a family of 4. High-end sushi spot that would’ve been even more pricey. (The room service menu is quite sad, and again would be close to 20,000¥) Or, you’re left with getting instant Nissin ramen cups at the convene, which is what we ended up doing the last night. (Breakfast, again, pay steep prices at the buffet, or wait till the bakery opens at the comically late hour of 10:00am, when you of course want to be on the slopes.) Anyway, I’d suggest packing some of your own bentos, or be prepared to pay. ¥¥¥¥¥¥"
