Fodor's Expert Review Akita Castle Hotel

1--3--5 Naka Dori, Akita, Akita-ken, 010-0001, Japan

Akita Castle Hotel has bright and airy rooms overlooking the moats of Senshu Park, with those on the fifth or sixth floor offering the better views, as do the window seats at the Japanese restaurant for breakfast. Upon entering the lobby you are greeted by a Picasso painting. Azaleas are in full bloom in the park in May and June. For a big splurge, request the Room Imperial where the imperial family stays.
