Good location, pleasant stay

It is a great hotel, served our purpose well, to be the base for our trips in the Shonai area. Rooms are small but okay, the onsen is good and convenient, lots of great services like coin laundry or dryer. Very convenient location if you come by car. We had a great time.

A clean adn well kept hotel

A clean and well kept hotel. This hotel has two manmade onsen (one for men and one for women). It has a small relaxation corner with foot massager (coin operated) and massage chair (coin operated). Bed is almost as hard as Rich and Garden's. It is 30 min walk from the train station or 10 min car ride. Plenty of parking if you are driving. Not close to much. Overall a pleasant stay.

I think this is one of the best hotel I stayed while I was in japan. Everything was great and particularly I liked the large public bath facility, it was excellent! Hotel staff was so friendly and professional. I'd like to stay there again for sure if I visit Sakata again.
