Hotel Route Inn Ofunato ★★★

"The price is very good. The hotel is a little far from the Dachuandu Station, but in the commercial street circle, it is very convenient to buy things and eat. The big bath is very good. The location of the laundry room, vending machine, ice maker is very convenient. Personally feel that there is a free newspaper (although it is the same official wide-ranging media as reading and selling news 😂). The seal of the lamb is very cute. The last time I stayed in the series of hotels should have been more than ten years ago, and it was also in the place, and the impression was not bad. Now it seems that some luxury hotel facilities are very good. But the design is not close to the people, but it is not as good as this store. I have never written this kind of article for decades in Japan, but this time I felt really good in the local town, making an exception."

Koyokan ★★★

"Un repas plein de fruits de mer est très délicieux, je suis délicieux! Je suis très satisfait du service client et très amical et enthousiaste, je peux passer un temps facile."

Ofunato Onsen ★★★

"This is a large facility that combines a day spa and a hotel. It is said that the inn serves delicious fisherman's meals, so I thought it was a fisherman's inn, but I was surprised to see that it was a large hotel. It seems to be a new facility. Guests can drink coffee (for free) in the lounge at the front desk. The beautiful Japanese-style room was 10 tatami mats in size, and a futon was laid out. There was also one chair. There were two card keys, which was very helpful. I registered for the Ofunato Onsen official app at the information desk in the room and was given 300 grams of wakame sashimi. It was plentiful and ready to use, so I use it at home. My partner bought two bags of wakame seaweed at the shop because it was cheap (he also got a coupon to use as a souvenir, so he got a discount). The day spa has a large public bath with hot and lukewarm water, and the view of the sea from the open-air bath is spectacular. There are all-in-one products in the washroom area. Although it is a day spa, it was around 4pm on a Monday, so it was quiet and not crowded, so I was able to take my time. Dinner was the best dinner I had during my six night stay at the Tohoku Ryokan Hotel. It was a seafood dinner, with appetizers of wakame crackers, mekabu, and sashimi of sea squirt delivered directly from Sanriku. The sashimi consisted of abalone, umami-sugahi and its liver, bonito, and sweet shrimp. I much prefer abalone sashimi to grilled abalone. The crunchy texture was amazing. I was surprised when the Ofunato Onsen specialty, swordfish head stewed for three days, was served. The swordfish head was very large, about 50 cm (or more?), and its eyeball was about 10 cm (?). I could eat the bones as well, and it was full of collagen (they cut it up for me). The steamed scallops were the biggest scallops I've ever eaten (about 5 cm in height). The chawanmushi was made with home-grown wakame seaweed, and they also served salt-grilled pacific saury and crispy deep-fried warasa (yellowtail). Unfortunately, I didn't order the Iwate Prefecture Hitomebore rice and pacific saury meatball soup because I couldn't eat them. My partner only wanted soup, so we both passed on them, so dinner was very filling. For alcohol, we ordered the nigori sake Yukiko, a local sake from Ofunato Town (300cc, 1,100 yen). It was dry and delicious, and went well with dinner. Breakfast was served from 7 to 9, so I thought it would be a buffet, but it was a Japanese meal. It was a buffet of juice, Koiwai milk, coffee, and other drinks, as well as natto seaweed, fruit, rich almond tofu, and Ofunato's local sweets, "nabeyaki." The nabeyaki contained brown sugar. A lot of local ingredients were used for breakfast. The abundant wakame seaweed was from the Sanriku region, which was grown by the owner. The simmered shredded kelp, ginger-flavored wakame stems, Sanriku mekabu and tuna with grated yam, grilled fish, and fluffy rolled sushi rolls* all had a gentle flavor. This breakfast was also very filling and very satisfying."
