I spent two nights at the Akita Castle Hotel in March (2023). It was a short walk from the train station near multiple attractions like the Akita Museum of Art and the castle ruins in Senshu Park. There's a large 7-Eleven by the entrance or a Lawsons around the corner for all your convenience needs. My room was perfect for a solo traveller, with all the comforts I needed.
ANA Crowne Plaza Akita 飯店設有 2 間餐廳和 1 間酒吧,距離 JR 秋田站有 3 分鐘步行路程,交通十分便利。客房裝飾簡潔,設有免費無線網絡連接和帶付費頻道的平面電視。 鋪有地毯的客房配有私人浴室、書桌和冰箱。客房配有電熱水壺、綠茶茶具和浴袍。ANA Crowne Plaza Hotel Akita 飯店的顧客可以免費使用健身房。飯店還提供客房服務、24 小時櫃檯服務和乾洗服務。從飯店步行10秒即可到達西武百貨商店,步行10分鐘即可到達千秋公園(Senshu Park)和久保田城(Kubota Castle)。驅車 20 分鐘即可到達大森山動物園。
This hotel is near to the station and right above a Lawsons. Room is nothing to shout home about, small and clean. In fact I felt it was a bit smaller than what I'd usually expect from a Japanese hotel, and the air had the faintest tinge of smoke in the air despite this being a no smoking room. Still, beds were comfy and all necessary amenities were provided. The breakfast was appreciated, but can be crowded. There's a good mix of Japanese and Western options, and constant free flow of coffee/tea in the common area.
