Hot spring inn. With the all-inclusive service, we enjoyed a variety of things, including unlimited drinks such as alcohol 🍺 and soft drinks 🧃, and unlimited reading of manga in the 📖manga corner.The classic table tennis🏓 was fun, there was a morning market held in front of the inn in the morning, there was a public footbath next door, and I enjoyed taking a walk in the morning.It was a good family trip.

I have not stayed at this hotel.This is a review of the morning market.I found Nobori at night and looked it up on my smartphone, but I couldn't find any significant information, so I wrote a review.I went around 6am on a Sunday morning.There was a morning market in the parking lot in front of the hotel.I was staying at a different hotel, but I saw Nobori at the morning market that night and was curious, so I went there the next morning.There were several people wearing yukata.The selection is not good.I didn't really want to buy anything, but I thought I'd take advantage of the opportunity and bought some sweets, meat soba, and chilled ramen.I wish they sold hot spring manju and hot spring eggs.Unless you are staying at Azumaya, this is not something you should go to for the purpose of morning market.I looked it up on my phone the night before, but I think I understand why there was almost no information.There is no place in Kaminoyama Onsen where you can buy souvenirs in bulk.I wish there was a place like ``Roadside Station Tendo'' near Ueyama Onsen. .

I stayed here for 2 nights for work.Since it's an inclusive plan, you'll be very satisfied with all-you-can-drink craft beer as soon as you arrive!I didn't have any food on the first night, but I added it on the second night.The kaiseki menu, centered around Yamagata beef shabu-shabu, is extremely delicious, and you'll be very satisfied with all-you-can-drink alcohol, including beer, local sake, and Yamagata wine!There is a large public bath, but I reserved a private open-air bath for two days in a row.The first day was a cypress bath, and the second day was a granite bath. It took about 45 minutes, but it was great to be able to take it slowly!
