Pros: Everything. Free soba every night.

Cons: Staff not very friendly but all in all, place nicely centralised. They clean the room every day nicely. They even prepare a set for my toddler just for him.

Pros: This hotel is in a wonderful location. Just a short walk from the west exit of the station, and the walkway is both covered and surrounded by wonderful shops, cafes and restaurants. The hotel was spotless, the staff wonderful and Akita is just such a great place to spend some time. Our room on the 12th floor was huge and had great views over the city and the nearby mountains.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: Brand new place. Everything just works

Pros: Everything was clean. Borrowed an umbrella for a rainy weekend stay, and that was very helpful. Cosy gathering space on the ground floor is also nice.

Pros: The hotel is new. Ammenities are complete

Pros: Very pleasant and helpful even though I did not speak Japanese. Parking super convenient!

Cons: All was great!

Pros: Was very convenient.

Cons: Breakfast wasn’t as good as expected.

Pros: Most if all it’s location. The hotel is a short, covered walk from the station entrance. It is quite modern with decent size rooms and (in my case) great views. Staff are friendly and accommodating. Akita is a beautiful city with interesting historical places and some beautiful old houses.

Pros: Onsen pretty good even through it’s not new. Breakfast pretty nice that comes with a traditional Japanese set with a mini hot pot (radish soup) and basic American buffet for western food. We stayed on top level 5. We took a very big Japanese room that can accommodate 6 paxs. View is great since it’s winter time, everywhere covered with snow.

Cons: Location not convenient especially without much restaurants available. Due to location, we didn’t go for a snow festival that we originally planned to. Wifi really lousy, only at the lobby or onsen area are ok. Need to bring room’s towels to onsen area. Price is also on the high end.

Pros: Spacious clean room, and great onsen which is really enjoyable. I like this location too for my pilgrimage because it is only 2 km from Seitai Hoshikai which houses the chapel where a wooden statue of the Virgin Mary wept many times for several years in the 70's. The hotel offers a great breakfast with large selection of food.

Cons: Only size M and L of the Japanese robe are provided in the room. I hope it provides small size as well because it is clumsy for a small person to wear overly long robe.

Pros: Smooth check-in and check-out! Loved the spacious room! The toilet is perfected with bathtub where I soaked in after a roughly 3 hours Shinkansen-ride from Tokyo and there's a bidet, perfect for those who loved to be extra clean and fresh! The distance is very near to the Akita station, just within walking distance and you won't have to suffer dragging your luggage too far and you don't even have to grab a bus or taxi! There's a plenty of nearby cafes, convenient stores, malls and there are karaoke stores nearby. There's even a delicious cafe that sells very delicious hot zenzai served with grilled mochi!! I highly recommend this hotel!

Cons: Out of Akita town.

Pros: The staff did their best to fulfill our requests and even if they couldn’t understand, they will just a translator to do it.

Pros: The onsen (spa) on the ground floor is sensational. Indoors there are 3 hot pools of varying type, 2 sauna rooms and an ice bath. There is also an outside portion w/2 baths.

Cons: Fyi, there is quite a crowd of guests filing in around 17:00. The attraction is obviously the onsen. If you're a hotel guest, best to figure out the best hours in which to beat the crowd.

Pros: This hotel was a great find for our stay in Akita. It's clean and comfortable. The onsen is great and exceeded my expectations. I loved the no shoes policy especially as we were traveling with a baby. Great location.

Cons: The room was spacious but had too much furniture.

Pros: We planned to use Akita as our base for day trips to the historic samurai village of Hakunodate and to Lake Tazawa, but the Route-Inn Grantia turned out to be a destination of its own. The staff was friendly (though I was glad to be able to speak Japanese), the service impeccable, and our room small but meticulously clean and well appointed (toiletries and tea provided; towels and jinbei for the onsen changed daily). Our floor featured a coin laundry and a vending machine with cup noodles. A Japanese breakfast buffet with a range of options is available for purchase for 850 yen/day, even if you don't include it in your reservation. I also highly recommend the restaurant on the premises, which serves a delicious rendition of the Akita specialty kiritanpo. Make sure to save time for the onsen! There are a variety of baths of different temperatures, both indoors and out.

Cons: There aren't many dining options around the hotel; you may want to either eat at the hotel restaurant or closer to Akita Station.

Pros: Public bath was great. Morning shuttle bus to the train station is perfect for morning check outs.

Pros: Helpful staff, spacious room, great breakfast and awesome onsen - very spacious and very quiet when I was there in the evening.

Pros: Very good natural onsen

Pros: Roomy

Cons: Breakfast was too small and not so good tasting.

Pros: the welcome service food is amazing and the lunch menu is cheap

Pros: It’s an adult hotel so goes without saying, they keep absolute secrecy of their clients which I appreciate. They provide full range of entertainment facilities including a giant TV. There is even a sauna in the room. I ordered room service for dinner on the TV monitor, it came quickly, taste good and inexpensive. The room includes breakfast and it came exactly the time I requested at check-in. The range of amenities is incredible, no five star hotel can compare.

Cons: I was overwhelmed with the smoke smell in the room, I made a mistake and turn off the noisy exhaust fan above my bed on the ceiling and woken up by the smoke smell in the middle of the night, and. there’s nothing I can do since it is local customs to allow smoking in all rooms and the rooms are sharing the same ventilation pipe. The decor is decades dated. It was the only hotel available in my price range.

Pros: choice of toiletries

Cons: nothing

Pros: the room was spacious

Cons: the air quality was very poor. the room smelt mouldy and was extremely smokey even though we had asked for a non smoking room.
