Iroha Ryokan, hotel in Aomori

Only a 2-minute walk from JR Aomori Train Station, Iroha Ryokan offers simple Japanese-style rooms with a flat-screen TV.

As an overseas visitor to Aomori, I felt very welcomed by the proprietress. It was a much more personal experience than staying at a hotel and she made sure to check in with me every day. And despite the language barrier, everything was explained clearly and there was lots of helpful signage posted. I also enjoyed my room on the third floor and the air conditioner worked well. The room was big for me as a solo traveler and two people would fit fine. Three might be a little cozy unless you're just needing a place to crash. While there is one shower, it was never a problem grabbing a shower each day. I stayed for 5 nights and the place appeared full each night and yet I only ever caught a glimpse of another lodger twice. If planning to use the free washing machine, just be sure to leave time to hang dry your laundry. And, as everyone else says, the location absolutely cannot be beat.

Yadoya Tsubaki, hotel in Aomori

Situated in Aomori and only 20 km from Sannai-Maruyama site, Yadoya Tsubaki features accommodation with sea views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The town is outside of the main area of Aomori and is a small beachside area. It was very quiet with minimal options for dinner available as the Ryokan was not serving meals at the time that we went. A young couple have opened a craft brewery across the road and there is an authentic ramen restaurant a few doors down. There is a small cafe called Apricot, across the road run by a lovely husband and wife. The ryokan was lovely. The staff friendly, the onsens were great and you were able to book a private onsen without a problem. The rooms were well equipped and view from the room was lovely.

    Very nice ryokan, with good private and public onsen available. The room was more than enough, with fresh towels and yukata each day I stayed. The staff were very nice, and I was able to ask them about certain things with combinations of English, Japanese and translation apps. I got injured before coming here sp the location is a bit far away from things, but very close to the station (2 minutes?). Note: not a negative as I chose this location because of the location originally.

    The woman who runs the inn is a sweetheart! I arrived in the traditional tatami-mat and futon room which was a great experience already and there were a yukata, chocolates and a thermos of hot water and green tea packets awaiting me (which were refilled everyday, as they cleaned the room!)

    Location is great! A few steps from the train station. Our room is Japanese style with sea view. Dinner was superb! They served Japanese traditional food set with wagyu and seafood buffet. Breakfast's buffet lines were impressive as well!! Onsen has two big indoor pools and one outdoor pool. Hot spring water is also serviced at our room's bath tub!! We were very happy!!!

    Lovely welcoming staff Very kind and helpful at all times if we had questions. Were able to reserve the onsen downstairs on both nights at a chosen time, and at one stage we had a short onsen in upstairs one (not reserved). Basic in room facility with own toilet and basin (cold water). Make sure you have any showering or bathing done before 8.30am or after lunch time, otherwise you’ll be sponge bathing in morning in the room, with cold water. Really comfortable beds. Beautiful tatami flooring. Nice view also.

    The location was excellent - very close to Aomori station and the Nebuta Museum! The staff was also very helpful when explaining things to me. As well, the room had a very Japanese style, and the yukata provided was very cute! Finally, the futon bed on the tatami was much softer than other futons that I have slept on during my trips in Japan, so I was pleasantly surprised.

    The owner allowed us to drop our bags before and after check in and out so we could see the town unhindered. She was very nice to us for the whole stay. We stayed in the tatami mat room. The mats were new and felt luxurious. The futon s were so comfortable we almost decide to no show a different hotel so we could stay at Iroha longer. The bathroom was clean and relaxing to use. It is spacious enough for a family all at once. We would stay here again in a heart beat.
