Exactly as I would expect, clean, tidy, staff friendly. Still can't get used to the pillows budget Japanese hotels provide so I pack a little one. Apart from this the room is very comfortable. A cooked breakfast is not offered at this APA but muffins, toast and coffee provided in the foyer in the morning. Convenience stores close by if you wanted a cooked breakfast.

The Yamagata Ski area (Zao Onsen) is fantastic. It wasnt crowded, lessons for kids and adults were AUD$55 for 4 hours, lifts were @4$ per lift. Gear hire was AUD$65 for 2 days PP. In Australia lift passes are $250 per day alone. The hotel Sailor Hutte was literally at the base of the ski lifts. Food was cheap ($10-14 per meal) booze was cheap ($3.50 for a beer). The guys at the Hotel Sailor Hutte were great, make an effort to chat with them via your translator app. Its worth it. One more thing, I would recommend buying Shinkansen tickets directly from JR East rail online. Heaps cheaper than buying a seven day pass unless you are planning to spend 7 days on the train. FYI there are 3 Shinkansen companies East, Central and West. They have there own websites a bit clunky in English but it works. Good luck.

Yamagata is a beautiful mountainous prefecture.
Yamagata is a beautiful mountainous prefecture. There are many places to visit and things to do. We rented a car and I believe this is a must if you want to sight see and time is an issue for you. By car from Yamagata train station, Zao Onsen is about 40-50 minutes away, Ginzan Onsen an hour, Yamadera about 20-30 mins. If you are into photography, there are many great landscape photos you can take here.

Not very famous place for travelingas not much to see in the city.
If you could have a car or rent one, could go more places.
Basically in Yamagata prefecture, public transportation doesn't cover much as it is not a prefecture mainly for sightseeing though there are several nice places to go.
Close to the JR Yamagata station. A Max Valu supermarket is also just right around the corner.
Room is what you expect from standard Japanese business hotel. The TVs show you how busy the public bath is and if the washer and dryers are occupied. WiFi was also pretty good.
Free breakfast was great. I read another review that said there wasn’t a lot of variety, but there was very good variety in my opinion for a free breakfast. Good mix of Japanese and Western items. It gets pretty busy, though.
Spacious room. Smart TV that allows you to watch youtube/ netflix on big screen if you don't understand Japanese programs. Good quality communal kitchen. Big fridge, nice island counter for stove and wash basin. There are vending machines for toiletries, snacks, drinks and instant noodles. The smoking room connected to the kitchen has good ventilation such that no cigarette smell escape into the non-smoking area.
Simple self check-in with machine with passport scanning. Helps keep cost down?
Great, old school Japanese place to stay, right next to the gondola - its about a 20meter walk to the gondola entrance! And you can ski down the hill, right to the door. The room was nice and big with traditional tatami and futons.
Great staff - the owner speaks really good english and is really helpful - he has great suggestions for everything from Onsen to restaurants etc. They even helped me ship my snowboard with Kuroneko back to Narita.
Breakfast was good. Hope could be improved with different varieties everyday. The location just beside Yamagata station. Love how helpful the hotel staff is, he was trying hard to explain in English, and keep helping us during the stay. I love how they greet us everytime we passby the lobby lift. Thank you very much for making us warm!
+ location was excellent (just a 1-2min walk from/to Yamagata station and the bus stop to Zao is in front of the hotel)
+ bed and pillow were comfortable
+ USB port next to the bed
+ breakfast included in the rate (selection and quality were very decent considering what I paid for the room)
+ staff were polite and professional
Great location right beside the station, there's even a covered walkway straight to the building.
The view is fantastic, I think this is the tallest building in Yamagata and the hotel is located at the top. There's also a Family Mart and a cinema in the building
The dinner exceeded expectations - about 9 courses that provided a good variety of Japanese cuisine, from fresh seafood to local beef varieties. The property itself also provided so many options to relax, including reading areas and on-site onsens.
7 min walk from Yamagata Station that has busses for Zao Onsen Ski Resort. Has public coin laundry at the hotel in certain floors, can hold luggage and baggage for you while you other trips and walking distance to bars and cafes.
Hotel Castle is 8 minutes walk from Yamagata Station. There are nearby restaurants and convenience stores in the area. The service bath salt was great! There were a lot of selection to choose from!
Location is very good - right next to train station and mall.
Hotel is good enough to swtich us to non-smoking rooms (we initailly booked 2 smoking room bcos it's full).
Beautiful view and lighting in the room. This hotel is more environmentally aware, and does a child sponsorship program I think. Breakfast was pretty good!
