About 5 minutes walk from the west exit of JR Yamagata Station. A hotel that is a step above other hotel chains.Brightly lit, spacious and clean rooms and bathrooms. Even single rooms come with 2 face towels.The quality of facilities and amenities (especially towels and toothbrushes) is good.Breakfast is buffet style with mainly Japanese food. I feel that the breakfast is especially good among the Richmond hotels, which have always had good breakfasts.There is a LOUNGE service and soft serve ice cream (3 types) available at breakfast.There is a waste-free service where you can exchange unused breakfast coupons for original cakes, etc.All the staff, from the front desk to the restaurant to the cleaning staff, were kind, courteous, and had a good impression.Standard check-out time is 11:00, but members can extend the check-out until 12:00 (free of charge).Overall the quality exceeds the price.

Staff is very friendly and professional. Rooms are cool, clean, and comfortable. I would definitely stay here again. While I did not try the breakfast, many others staying there raved about it. No workout facility though I think that is common in Japan.

Stayed in September 2024. There is a lounge where you can eat soft drinks and ice cream 👏 Breakfast was very delicious with local Yamagata cuisine 😊 It's very convenient, right next to the west exit of Yamagata Station, with a 7-Eleven next door and Max Value in the back. If you use it frequently, it is better to get a membership card. Earn points, check out late, etc.
