Senboku Akita Komagatake Hotels

"Warm bedroom and reliable hot water for showering in winter. Good for a night in Kakunodate, or more. Breakfast (if purchased when booking) was served in the guesthouse's Italian restaurant just beside. Thin walls though the other guests were considerate to minimise noise during my stay. The owner, Eiko, is a very easygoing and friendly lady. I regret I had to leave."

"Great stay. The staff speaks limited English so use google translate and limited dinner choices nearby. Otherwise a really amazing place"

"It was an 8 night stay and what stood out for me was the hard working staff who do their jobs well! "

" One of the baths was shut down unexpectedly for repairs. They drove us to a connected hotel so we could use that facility."

"The staff were very friendly and attentive! The ryokan was beautiful in the snow. In the best possible way, we had a great time laughing with the staff over my stilted Japanese. The lady who showed us our room went above and beyond to make us feel at home. We had a lovely time at Shikitei, and I hope we return!"

"Amazing views and got to experience the full traditional ryokan/onsen experience. Staff was very nice especially to foreigners."

"The hotel is dated. Mattress are hard. Prepared to pay a premium for ski in ski out but just wasn’t up to standard for the price. "

"The hospitality of Nori-san, Chie, and their family made our stay so enjoyable. They went out of their way to ensure our comfort and shared wonderful details about their beautiful, nutritious, farm-to-table meals. We even got to tour their farm, learn about rice planting, and spot a precious firefly. The house is bright and clean, overlooking rice paddies, with a fully equipped kitchen and laundry facilities. It's also centrally located in Akita, making it easy to visit spots like Lake Tazawa, Dakigaeri Valley, and Kakunodatemachi Samurai district."

"All staff were so kind. "
