Top Iwate Prefecture Hotel Reviews

Hotel Royal Morioka

10/10 Excellent

"Bed was comfy, great location, excellent service and very clean. I will be coming back."

ANA Holiday Inn Iwate Kitakami by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"This is a very nice for a Holiday Inn...especially in a rural area. Frankly, it's much nicer than any othere Holiday Inn I've used in America. The lobby is beautiful, the room was spacious with a nice view of the river, and breakfast was delicious with many items to choose from. I wish we could have stayed longer!"

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. ¥¥¥¥¥¥"
