It is located in the center of reconstruction, within walking distance of various shops.From the parking lot to the front desk. The glass chapel reminds me that the hotel was also a wedding venue before the earthquake.I wonder if the money has become more common than it used to be.The breakfast is exquisite. Be sure to try the hamburger and scallops!

I think it was very difficult to rebuild after the earthquake.The staff was great and I was able to relax.We highly recommend the balcony on the top floor of this hotel.Also, the bathroom was so comfortable that I wanted to spend a few days there, including the room.There are places around where you can enjoy eating, so we recommend staying at a hotel and relaxing.

I took a trip to Iwate using the accommodation voucher I received as a hometown tax.When I arrived, I was surprised by the lovely lobby with a chapel and the beautiful and clean interior of the building.The room I was shown to was on the top floor with a balcony and terrace, and it was spacious and had the latest equipment, which instantly got me excited.There are two types of baths: a bathroom with a bathtub and a shower room, and you can relax in the bathtub where you can stretch your legs.The bed is comfortable and the mat is just the right hardness.The loungewear was casually stylish and comfortable.I think the breakfast buffet is delicious and the number of items is just right.There are bars and restaurants around the hotel, so I was able to enjoy a short walk and had a very comfortable stay.If I have a chance next time, I would definitely like to use it again.

The accommodation I chose for the second day of my solo trip to Michinoku in September was ``Ofunato Plaza Hotel,'' which is located right next to BRT Ofunato Station. This hotel is a 6-story building with a restaurant on the first floor that serves as a reception and breakfast venue, a banquet hall and a chapel, and guest rooms on the second floor and above.There are about 20 rooms on each floor, and the rooms and bathrooms are spacious and clean. I feel very satisfied with the facilities as well.Breakfast was buffet-style, and the dishes included not only the usual breakfast buffet fare, but also local dishes such as Ofunato's famous scallops and grilled scallops.As always, I was too greedy and ended up eating too much, but all the dishes were of pretty good quality for a buffet. In addition to the grilled scallops, which can be served piping hot on a simple stove, the Japanese-style hamburger steak was surprisingly good, fluffy and tender, and the sauce was delicious. Furthermore, all the dishes were delicious, including the type of scrambled eggs that had a melty, buttery flavor.Overall, I was very satisfied with the stay, so I plan to use it again when I come to Ofunato.Thank you for your help.

I stayed here while on a bike tour. The parking lot was free, but we parked next to the smoking area under the eaves of the entrance, which was a good thing as it rained from midnight to early morning... (As for motorcycles, we can't park more than 1 or 2 bikes as it would be a nuisance.) …)This is a prestigious hotel where weddings can be held in the chapel, and both the interior and exterior are luxurious and new. The room was not large or small, and the bathroom was clean with the toilet in an easy-to-use location...The bed was large and comfortable to sleep on. Breakfast is buffet style, the venue is spacious and comfortable, and there's more food than I can finish, but the only fruit I had was bananas...Breakfast time is slow until 9:30, so...There is no need to rush in the morning, and there are many restaurants such as izakayas and ramen shops in front of the hotel, so it is not inconvenient.It is also close to the station, and the front desk and staff are very helpful.I can say that I am a professional...I will be returning again when I visit Ofunato.
