If you are interested in visiting shrines and Japanese mythology, this is the hot spring you should definitely visit❕The myth of the Japanese soccer samurai blue emblem and the Yatagarasu will also surprise you❗The story is that Prince Hachiko, the third son of Emperor Suushun, left Kyoto after receiving information about his father's assassination and rebellion by Soga Iruka, and arrived at Yuranohama in Yamagata from the Sea of ​​Japan❕It is said that Prince Hachiko, who was shipwrecked on Yura Beach, was rescued there by eight shrine maidens (Yaotome legend), and also opened Mt. Haguro with the help of a three-legged crow.Yatagarasu has inherited its name from Yata's mirror, Yasaka Qiong's magatama, and Kusanagi's sword (Amamuragumo's sword) as the three sacred treasures❕Furthermore, the place name of Mt. Haguro Sanmon is ``Toge'', which is geographically located opposite Mt. Haguro from Yuranohama Beach, so it was given this name in kanji. That's why I'm doing it❕It's quite a meaningful story when you unravel it.Besides, the messenger of the god at Itsukushima Shrine is also the same crow❕This hotel has a beautiful proprietress from Hokkaido who looks good in Japanese clothes, and a courteous staff❕The food was carefully selected from the seafood of the Sea of ​​Japan, and Yamagata's alcohol also matched the food❕There is one Japanese-Western style room on each floor, and those who can make a reservation are lucky.❕Each room has a view of the sunset over the Sea of ​​Japan, so I think it would be a stylish way to enjoy a fishing fire and a drink at night❕The baths are also close to the sea, Atsumi Onsen and Yunohama Onsen, both of which are simple salt springs.There is also a jellyfish aquarium nearby❕I think the service, food, facilities, and scenery are all satisfactory accommodations❕(^_^)v04/07/24Thank you Yaotome-san for your help this year too!While the facilities and rules of the hotel are all well and good, you will notice that the hospitality spirit of the hostess, female servers, and employees is priceless!For dinner, the herb-grilled abalone and Hirata Farm pork shabu-shabu are both delicious!The shrimp spilled sushi makes me think and enjoy it every time!I'm always interested in every meeting!I feel like this is a comfortable hotel!We also visited Yunohama and Atsumi Onsen, but ended up staying exclusively at Yaotome Hotel in Yura!We look forward to seeing you again next year!(^_^)/□☆□\(^_^)06/07/28Thank you for your help in climbing and worshiping Mt. Haguro, Mt. Gassan, and Mt. Yudono in Yamagata!As expected, I was impressed by the hospitality and hospitality of the employees at this hotel, from the proprietress!Both the east and west baths are hot springs with simple salt springs!The food is also quite elaborate and delicious, and goes well with the cloudy sake Yaotome!Breakfast was a buffet, but they also served omelets that were perfect in terms of quality and quantity!The sunset over the Sea of ​​Japan and the fireworks from the Sea of ​​Japan create a great atmosphere for evening drinks in your room!I reconfirmed that this is a comfortable hotel with great care!(^_^)v

September 7, 2024 We apologize for the inconvenience caused by Club Tourism.It's a historical place and a place with spectacular views. I was very satisfied with the very good customer service.The meals were very delicious and well-cooked using locally sourced ingredients, and I was very satisfied.Unfortunately, it was raining, so I was hoping for a starry sky, but I was disappointed. The rain stopped the next morning, so we took a walk along the coastline to Hakusan Shrine.

Used by family.I had very good memories with the wonderful landlady and the great scenery. However, there are no convenience stores nearby, so it is better to buy what you need in advance in town.

I went on a solo trip and was surprised to find a hotel with an amazing view. It really feels like an ocean view. At first it was cloudy, but when I looked at it at night it was completely clear, so I decided to take a picture of the starry sky along with the spectacular view. There was a bit of light pollution so I couldn't get a good shot of the Milky Way, but I think you can still see a good view.The hotel itself is old. However, considering that it had been exposed to the sea breeze for many years, I thought it would be difficult to maintain it.The breakfast buffet had a wide variety. It was delicious.I would like to go there again.
