Conveniently located beside JR Morioka station and Iwate Galaxy Railway (IGR) Line with the bus terminus across the road in front of the hotel and also housed within the same building as the FESAN Shopping Mall.
Room was spacious and the breakfast (buffet style) in the hotel’s Chinese restaurant was good.
City sightseeing bus stops at 5pm so I opted to walk to Morioka Castle/Park which took about 20mins to reach.
