The mattress was too soft for me. There is public onsen bath on the 10th floor. It is wonderful but there is a smoking area by the bath entrance which is unfortunate.

The room looks a little old-fashioned, but amenities provided are new. Love their rooftop onsen! Ladies are provided with not only the shampoo, conditioner, and body wash, they also have facial cleanser as well. Within the public onsen area, the laundry and dryer are located inside so you can start your laundry and pick them up once you are done after a good soak and doing your nightly facial routing. The make-up room has 5 cubicles so no fighting needed. Hairdryer was the best. Love the omotenashi; they have free nightly ramen service served in the main dining area, good to finish the night with. Parking is a little hassle. Car entrance to the hotel is tricky as the side where the hotel doors are is only one-way, which the other entrance is purely for the parking. You will need to go via the entrance nearer to hotel door as they have to assign you your parking lot.

The roof top onsen was wonderful. My kids love the free apple juice, yogurt drinks, and popsicles and parents enjoyed the late night free ramen and beer. The location is close to the castle and an izakaya area. Parking was 700 yen/nt. Highly recommend.

A really excellent stay for a good price.
Much better than average experience for a business type hotel. Rooms were very clean and comfortable, there was self-service coffee available in the lobby and the onsen was excellent. There was an indoor and outdoor onsen as well as a sauna. Perfect after a long day of walking around.

Exceptional experience at Dormy Inn
We stayed 3 nights in Hirosaki and we are very happy with our decision to stay at Dormy Inn. The hot spring is fantastic - spacious and clean. The free noodle every night is simple but tasty even though it is free. The location is convenient - the castle and other attractions and many restaurants are within walking distance. The free shuttle service is exceptional: One morning we arrived at the waiting point a minute before departure time but the minibus had only 1 seat left and there were 2 of us. The driver informed the front desk staff who promptly ordered a taxi for us and it was FOC for us. For more than 20 years, I made more than 20 trips annually (mostly on business) and stayed in different categories of hotels / resorts (including global chains). The free shuttle is always on first-come-first-serve basis. I had never experienced this kind of treatment. What a nice surprise. Well-done Dormy Inn!

Excellent location, service and onsen!
Excellent stay at Dormy Inn Hirosaki! The receptionist was very helpful in helping us make a local call in Japanese as we are unfamiliar with the language and needed to confirm details of our next lodging. The hotel was within walking distance to Hirosaki castle, and right next to a bus stop where buses took you to the Hirosaki Apple Park. They also provided free ice-cold apple juice which was terrific! The onsen is 5-star quality! Price was very reasonable. Highly recommend this hotel to anyone considering to visit Hirosaki.

Great Nikko Hotel
This hotel is very conveniently located across the street from the Nikko train station. The staff is very friendly and professional. We arrived about an hour before check-in, but they were still able to proved a room right away. The room was very plain yet clean and decently-sized (for Japan). The bed mattress was very firm. We didn’t find it too comfortable, but this is common in Japan. The breakfast buffet (2,000 yen/person) is really good, and was very convenient. We tried the dinner buffet one night (4,500 yen/person), and it was good, but not quite worth that price. Restaurant staff were always courteous and attentive.

Cherry blossom festival
They have sweets when you check in an amazing local apple juice available in the lobby. Breakfast and evening ramen were both delicious! We appreciated that the staff was patient with us as we do not speak Japanese. You definitely pay more during cherry blossoms, but we thought it was definitely worth it.

My friend and I enjoyed the place a lot. The hot bath/spring/onsen was clean and nice for a quick dip after a long day and just before the day ends. There's also free breakfast which includes Japanese style breakfast which I was in love with. Overall we were very happy with our stay

Hotel was okay.
The room was a little smaller than what we had in Akita, so we were a little disappointed. We had the same type of room. The location was a bit far from the station and the free schuttle is only for the morning hours. Took the 100 yen bus to travel around the city. The Fujita Garden was exceptional and Hirosaki Park was absolutely beautiful with the autumn leaves. It was the highlight of our trip.

Room was clean and staffs were nice. They had Public bath system and a free-ramen-service for late night. I thought that was unique and fun. Only minus was the unexplained 600 yen parking fee. Overall it was a great stay at this hotel
