Pros:

從訂房開始就很期待，這次選武士藏，獨棟，空間超級寬敞，每個角落都精心布置，燈光加分，一切都很棒
晚餐也很好吃，因為隔天要搭早班離開，就選擇不吃早餐。雖然離車站很近，但仍有提供接送服務～
非常推薦到角館住一晚

Fantastic place to stay. Really impressed.
Pros:

The whole experience was exceptional. Massive rice barn conversion with all the amenities and facilities you could wish for. The included dinner, in the restaurant, was incredibly good and showcased local cuisine. Breakfast was delivered to our room (with an unexpected side of earthquake!) and it was delicious. All in all its worth the splurge, in a wonderful small town, with well preserved Edo period houses, many of which you can visit. I wish we could have stayed more than one night, two would have been perfect. All the staff in reception and restaurant were charming and accommodating. A very enjoyable stay, one of our highlights in our trip to Japan

Cons:

Nothing

if you can afford to splurge once in a while, stay here when you visit Kakunodate
Pros:

You are actually staying in a house that resembles all the samurai houses that make this little, sleepy town famous.

Cons:

it’s a half board concept, breakfast was great (all Japanese fyi), diner was a tiny bit underwhelming, considering the wonderful setup and atmosphere.

This hotel is like stepping back in time
Pros:

We truly enjoyed our stay, even though it was only for one night.

The room we stayed in was located in what used to be the storehouse of a samurai castle. It was an enormous two-story suite.

The renovation is exceptional, with carefully preserved historical features and thoughtfully selected period details throughout. Every decorative element and even the tableware perfectly matched the atmosphere. The room was spotlessly clean, the craftsmanship and attention to detail were outstanding, and everything was finished to the highest standard.

The private onsen-style bath was a unique and memorable experience.

The service was exceptional from start to finish. The staff were warm, attentive, and provided hospitality of the highest standard.

Dinner at the adjacent restaurant was outstanding. Every course was even better than the last.

Cons:

Thea only minor drawback just as a note was that there is no bathroom on the sleeping floor. If you need to get up during the night, you have to be careful of the low wooden beams.
