Hoshino Resorts Oirase Keiryu Hotel
Once a ryokan, this resort hotel in owada-Hachimantai National Park combines the options of a ryokan with the extras of a resort, offering activities that you can take advantage of to see and experience the area in addition to the beautiful mountain views and on-site onsen. You can go everywhere in the place in your pajama-like loungewear. The lobby is dominated by a soaring chimney decorated by Taro Okamoto, and enormous plate-glass windows overlook a beautiful natural setting. A variety of rooms is available. And the buffet includes apple-related fare since that's what Aomori is known for. While there is a free bus from Hachinohe, Aomori, and Shin-Aomori JR stations, be sure to make a reservation when you book, and confirm the departure time so you don't miss it. In addition to outdoor activities, they also run things like open-air bus tours. There are plenty of things to do, so don't be late and miss the welcome drinks.
