Hôtels avec petit déjeuner à Préfecture d'Aomori, Japon

Had a fantastic stay at Dormy Inn Aomori Natural Hot Spring. The location is very convenient, close to Aomori Station and within easy reach of nearby restaurants and attractions. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped with everything needed for a relaxing stay. The bed was cozy, and the overall atmosphere was quiet and restful. A major highlight was the natural hot spring bath—absolutely excellent for relaxing after a long day. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with both indoor and outdoor bathing options that made the experience even better. The complimentary late-night ramen was also a great touch, adding extra value to the stay. Staff were friendly, polite, and efficient throughout. Overall, a very comfortable and enjoyable stay with great amenities and excellent value. Highly recommended when visiting Aomori!

Check-in was very smooth. In fact, they allowed us to check in earlier - about 1 to 2 hours earlier, I think. The room was already ready, so they allocated it to us when we arrived. The room itself was rather small but functional and clean, so we don’t really have any complaints other than it being a bit small. I guess this is Japanese standards. The pricing is fairly more expensive than the inns across the road, perhaps because of the location and also because it is very new. The property itself has a very nice onsen. The female onsen had a lot of apples floating in it, which was a very nice touch to showcase Aomori apples. The front desk staff are very nice and very friendly. They also have staff who can speak Chinese. Not that I am Chinese, but I can speak some Chinese better than Japanese, which I can’t speak at all. Nevertheless, the staff could converse in English, or at least some basic English. There’s free yoga and some classes, but we didn’t utilise them as it’s not really useful for tourists who would rather spend time outside the hotel. This seems more suited for locals who want a short getaway, but still a very lovely touch. Breakfast is paid separately and does not come with the room, so there is no comment on that. The property provides Nespresso capsules in the room, and there is also a better Nespresso machine near the check-in counter. I also love that they provide water for free without having to pay extra. The lounge is available for everybody and overlooks the bridge. They provide some free snacks and drinks depending on the timing - different items in the morning and in the evening. That being said, there is no alcohol being served. Also, the coffee there is very bad. I don’t understand why they don’t put the Nespresso machine in the lounge since they have one at the lobby. Overall, everything was quite perfect for this hotel. In fact, the location was the most perfect part. Once you exit the train station, you enter an elevator that goes up to the hotel. Since it was winter, I was afraid I would need to drag my bags for a long time, but it’s right outside the exit after you tap your card and turn left. If I remember correctly, the elevator is right there and there is no need to go outside at all. However, there are only two elevators servicing the entire building, so there might be some waiting time. I would advise leaving earlier if you have a train to catch. The only reason this is not a full-star review is because I requested about a one-hour late checkout due to our train time, and they told us we needed to pay - if I remember correctly, ¥2,000 per hour. I felt they were very rigid about the 11 am checkout time. To be honest, even if they had given it to us, we probably wouldn’t have used it anyway, as we later decided to change our train time to leave Aomori, since there isn’t much to do here. Still, the rejection and inflexibility made us feel very uneasy and unwelcome. I think they could have handled this better by being less rigid and more human. So that’s minus points from us. After all, this is part of hospitality, and it doesn’t hurt.

Cet hôtel thermal est situé au sommet d'une montagne. Il faut environ une heure de route pour y arriver, mais la vue en vaut vraiment la peine : les étoiles étaient magnifiques la nuit. L'extérieur de la source thermale était également confortable. Cependant, l'hôtel n'ayant pas d'ascenseur, il est peut-être préférable de prendre un bagage plus léger. Le dîner était trèèèèèès bon et frais, et la bière Aomori Apple était vraiment excellente. Le petit-déjeuner buffet propose également une variété de plats, allant de l'anglais au japonais. Nous n'avons pas vraiment apprécié les tenues d'intérieur bleues, qui ne rendaient pas bien et ressemblaient à celles d'un massothérapeute. Haha !

We were two people. The room we stayed at was not big. If you have two suitcases it will be hard to open up both of them at the same time. We didn’t have suitcases, and therefore the space was not a problem for us. The staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. I lost my gloves at a bus, and they helped me to get them back. You also got apple juice as a welcome drink at the front desk (very nice apple juice!). We used baggage storage after checking out, which was no problem. The room was very clean. When we were there they had an eco plan, which was that the room got cleaned only once at our 4 night stay, but could get towels whenever we wanted. We though it was good from the environment perspective (but we decided to not have any cleaning at all). Overall I though our stay at this hotel was very good.

Overall, we were very satisfied with the hotel's facilities and service. The standard room we stayed in was clean and hygienic, but the bed was a bit small. The soundproofing was not okay.

L'hôtel est proche de la gare d'Aomori, à environ 10 minutes à pied. Il est bien équipé, avec de nombreux articles de toilette gratuits et même des poudres de bain aux herbes. La chambre était propre, avec une baignoire sur pieds et une baignoire, et la salle de bain était spacieuse et agréable.

Nous avons séjourné ici en famille à trois. L'hôtel offrait un service, un accueil et des chambres excellents ; nous y retournerions avec plaisir. Le plus pour nos enfants a été le service robotisé. Lorsque nous avons appelé la réception pour demander des pyjamas pour enfants, un robot nous a aidés à les apporter, ainsi que leurs produits de toilette, dans notre chambre. Nos enfants étaient ravis et nous en avons souvent parlé pendant notre voyage. En entrant dans la chambre, nous avons découvert un espace très spacieux sur la droite, avec un espace pour s'asseoir pour se changer et pour déposer valises et autres bagages. Une porte coulissante séparait également la chambre. Deux types d'oreillers étaient disponibles : moelleux et fermes, pour un sommeil très confortable. Nous avons également profité du buffet du matin, délicieux et varié. La vue depuis notre chambre était également magnifique ; c'est donc un hôtel où nous retournerions avec plaisir. Ce qui m'a le plus surpris, c'est la large gamme de produits proposés, dont plusieurs variétés de thé et de café, ainsi qu'un rasoir, des brosses à dents, un nettoyant, un gel douche, une lotion, du lait, un masque et des sels de bain moussants. Il y a aussi des sanctuaires, des boutiques intéressantes et un cinéma à proximité de l'hôtel ; c'était donc agréable de se lever tôt le matin et de se promener dans les rues. J'ai pris un taxi depuis les gares d'Aomori et de Shin-Aomori, et la course ne m'a coûté qu'environ 2 000 yens. Le personnel de l'hôtel était également très courtois et m'a très bien accueilli.

The overall experience was positive. The breakfast was adequate and good and eventho was until 9am, they allow you to eat breakfast past the time. The checkout time was a tad early at 10am. There are 2 nice restaurants next to hotel and Lawson convenience store nearby and a shopping place too. The best part is we could park our car for free right in front of the hotel. Its located not far from Aomori airport and you could rent a car at the airport, which is right out the gate of the airport. U can book thru Trip for your rental car. The room itself was comfortable. Bed was good, but there was a bad smoking smell all round the room. Luckily there was a filter machine in the room. Room was a bit dark and space was not much to put luggage but adequate. There is a bath tub that i could bath in which was good. They also provide free bathhouse service for guest. The only thing that could be improved is to provide free drinking water to the guest. There is no hot water and no free drinking water. You have to buy from vending machine downstairs.

Less than 5 mins walk to and from JR Shin-Aomori Station (East exit) which also houses the Aomori Tourist Information Centre. I chose to stay near this JR Shin-Aomori station instead of JR Aomori station as the shinkansen doesn’t go to JR Aomori station. I need to take the shinkansen early in the morning on the following day to go to Akita and then transfer to the Akita shinkansen to head to my next accommodation in Tazawako. From JR Shin-Aomori station, it’s convenient to take limited express trains direct to Hirosaki station to visit Hirosaki Castle and Park. It’s also a short journey to JR Aomori station which is where the city centre of Aomori is located. Other than the F&B shops within Shin-Aomori station which close very early around 8pm if I recall correctly, there aren’t any F&B shops around the hotel. Both Family Mart and Lawsons convenience stores are located a few mins walk from the South exit of the train station which is located on the other end of the station.

Service was good. There was a staff who is stationed at the entrance, checking with guest who arrived by car. They will ask for your name, provided clear instructions of where to park. Unfortunately, I have accidentally left the lights in the car switched on. A few moments later when I was doing my check-in, the front desk staff quickly informed me about it. The facilities are good. Food is really good, very different from the other Hoshino resorts in Aomori that I have stayed. At KAI Tsugaru, it is Kaiseki instead of the usual buffet style. The staff took pains to explain and share the reason for each dish that was served. There are only 41 traditionally-furnished and generously-sized rooms offering both Western and Japanese-style designs which gives a very unique and dedicated experience as compared to other hotels which has many rooms.
