Hotels near Katanuma Lake

"Very nice hotel with excellent dinner and breakfast..we were served by a staff name RINA…she is extremely polite, cheerful and very friendly…she even personally wrote a goodbye card to me… that’s was very thoughtful and really appreciate her service. Will definitely stay again if I am going to be in Yamagata…it’s like coming home….thank you once again"

"Facilities in this hotel are really great. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed Onsen a lot ! Each table in the restaurant has high partitions (like a box). I understand it might be good for families or privacy but it didn’t have good atmosphere. "

"It was as if taking a step back in time. Drifting off to sleep in a dark room with the snow falling through the positioned sliding windows as to not see any of the surrounding modern day buildings, was a marvellous experience that I shall treasure forever. Great amenities, a karoke room, natural onsens, a library and not to mention both a wonderful supper and breakfast, not to mention buffet style. My only regret is not booking another night! And the highlight for me was sitting in the natural onsen, both in daylight and below the night sky with snow falling, yet being warmed by the natural baths watching the world go by. 10/10 for me! Can't recommend enough!"
