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...
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.
Exactly as I would expect, clean, tidy, staff friendly. Still can't get used to the pillows budget Japanese hotels provide so I pack a little one. Apart from this the room is very comfortable. A cooked breakfast is not offered at this APA but muffins, toast and coffee provided in the foyer in the morning. Convenience stores close by if you wanted a cooked breakfast.
Very close to Yamagata station and excellent value for money. In the reception room floor there was a variety of shampoos and shower gels to borrow and other toiletries such as toothbrushes to take. We enjoyed the Japanese style breakfast and the massage chairs were a pleasant surprise.
The Location near the Yamagata station. the front at the 24th of the building but entrance is complicated. Breakfast is bento set and go cold. The convenient store is the 1st floor . The room so clean and nice view of Yamagata City
The hotel located in very strategic area, actually it was inside Yamagata station, so really good for traveler! The check in and check out process very smooth, and the room was very cozy. Love to stay in here!
Location 5 mins away from Yamagata station.
Free breakfast.
Usual business hotel amenities, there were even large-sized nightgowns available.
Smooth check-in and check-out process with baggage drop-off
It was very comfortable and modern. At last a properly clean hotel in Japan. It’s hard to find that pos-covid. It is very well located, with a konbini on 1st floor. Pretty handy.
Location is very good - right next to train station and mall.
