Room is quite spacious, enough space to walk around and lay out our luggage. Ample electric sockets, and good WiFi. Furniture a bit dated but kept clean. We got a room on its top floor with a great view. Wasn't that many dishes for it buffet breakfast, possibly due to the lack of guests, but still it's good enough. Hotel staff are extremely courteous, be it at the reception, or inside the restaurant. There's a Mitsukoshi mall next to the hotel, with a supermarket and drug store. It's about 10 min's leisurely walk from Yamagata Station, and in between you'll pass by some restaurants and convenience stores. Not really that close to the station, but the room rate is generally cheaper that some others around.
Just a 1-minute walk from JR Yamagata Train Station, Hotel Route-Inn Yamagata Ekimae offers modern accommodations with free wired internet and a video-on-demand (VOD) system.

Close to the JR Yamagata station. A Max Valu supermarket is also just right around the corner.
Room is what you expect from standard Japanese business hotel. The TVs show you how busy the public bath is and if the washer and dryers are occupied. WiFi was also pretty good.
Free breakfast was great. I read another review that said there wasn’t a lot of variety, but there was very good variety in my opinion for a free breakfast. Good mix of Japanese and Western items. It gets pretty busy, though.

The Yamagata Ski area (Zao Onsen) is fantastic. It wasnt crowded, lessons for kids and adults were AUD$55 for 4 hours, lifts were @4$ per lift. Gear hire was AUD$65 for 2 days PP. In Australia lift passes are $250 per day alone. The hotel Sailor Hutte was literally at the base of the ski lifts. Food was cheap ($10-14 per meal) booze was cheap ($3.50 for a beer). The guys at the Hotel Sailor Hutte were great, make an effort to chat with them via your translator app. Its worth it. One more thing, I would recommend buying Shinkansen tickets directly from JR East rail online. Heaps cheaper than buying a seven day pass unless you are planning to spend 7 days on the train. FYI there are 3 Shinkansen companies East, Central and West. They have there own websites a bit clunky in English but it works. Good luck.

Yamagata is a beautiful mountainous prefecture.
Yamagata is a beautiful mountainous prefecture. There are many places to visit and things to do. We rented a car and I believe this is a must if you want to sight see and time is an issue for you. By car from Yamagata train station, Zao Onsen is about 40-50 minutes away, Ginzan Onsen an hour, Yamadera about 20-30 mins. If you are into photography, there are many great landscape photos you can take here.

Not very famous place for travelingas not much to see in the city.
If you could have a car or rent one, could go more places.
Basically in Yamagata prefecture, public transportation doesn't cover much as it is not a prefecture mainly for sightseeing though there are several nice places to go.

Yamagata is ideal as a base to get to Zao Onsen and Ginzan Onsen. There are bus and train connections to these two incredibly beautiful places. We also took the train through beautiful mountainous countryside to the coast to Matsushima, one of the three most beautiful places in Japan. Climbing 1100 steps at Yamadera was exhausting but so worth it when you saw the view over the valley. This area seems to be undiscovered by western tourists yet.
Wide variety of options for breakfast, though best if you like a Japanese breakfast. Certainly did not go hungry, plus there is a big supermarket right behind the hotel. Very comfortable beds. Loved being able to leave luggage after checkout before going to Ginzan Onsen for the day. The location is very convenient to the JR station for trains plus also for catching the bus in the morning to Zao Onsen.
The friendliness of the staff at Metropolitan Yamagata was the most memorable part of our one-night stay there. But the lobby and rooms were beautiful and more spacious than many other hotels we stayed it in northern Japan. The location can't be beat. If we return to Yamagata we would stay here again.
Good location from Yamagata Station. 8 minutes walk from East Exit. Good value with substantial Western or Japanese breakfast provided. Next to convenient store 7-11 and a very good BBQ beef restaurant. The room has a massage armchair to soothe tired muscles.
7 min walk from Yamagata Station that has busses for Zao Onsen Ski Resort. Has public coin laundry at the hotel in certain floors, can hold luggage and baggage for you while you other trips and walking distance to bars and cafes.
Near the station. Brand new. Comfort bed.
Staff is attentive and helpful even they cant speak english well in yamagata. There are 7-11 below as well as grilled restaurant that will also a breakfast venue. Good breakfast.
I love that it is super close to the station and there is a direct passage from Yamagata station to this hotel, so you dont need to go down to the main street. I also like the Yamagata city view from our room
U can literally ski into the hotel :)
Friendly staff and good value for it's location
And this slope is the better slope was the ropeway and lifts are way faster than the main ropeway to the Juhyo station
The host is so nice. He drove me to the station without even asking for it.
dinner time is the best, traditional japanese dinner to be joined with a donation. All super tasty, and with nice conversations.
Location 5 mins away from Yamagata station
Free breakfast
Usual budiness hotel amenities, there were even large-sized nightgowns available
Smooth check-in and check-out process with baggage drop-off
Very nice hotel, good rooms. Staff extremely kind and helpful, with possibility to find someone in the team speaking english. Possibility to find food for western breakfast, not only japanese style.
Free breakfast buffet with both Japanese and western style. It takes only 3-5 mins to walk from Yamagata station east exit to the hotel. Staff are kind and friendly.
Beautiful view and lighting in the room. This hotel is more environmentally aware, and does a child sponsorship program I think. Breakfast was pretty good!
