Outstanding Yamagata Hotel
Wonderful ryokan / hotel with its own onsen. It was only a one night stay, wish it could have been longer. Ideal hotel to relax and unwind at. The set menu evening meal was outstanding and great value - make sure to add it for one night!
The onsen facilities at the hotel and in room bath were excellent. Recommended hotel if you’re in Yamagata.

The Takinoyu Hotel was superb! It was larger than I thought and very luxurious feeling. We booked one of their more traditional rooms which was very spaceous and the view of the garden was lovely. We didn't have time to visit their baths but they looked very nice. The staff were great also, very friendly and helpful! Overall excellent hotel, would definitely stay here again!

This is such a beautiful Onsen with an incredibly kind staff. We took a gamble in coming up to Tendo during our 2.5 week trip to Japan, and this stay easily became the highlight of our trip.
We stayed in the suite with a hot tub in the balcony, and the room was spacious, clean, and traditional. The breakfast had a variety of choices, and the dinner (separate charge) was delicious with locally sourced food. Give this place a try, you’ll feel refreshed after your stay!

Beautiful property. The rooms are spacious, clean, and comfortable. Hotel personnel are courteous and friendly-everyone greets you and willing to answer any questions. The front desk was very helpful in making reservations at the restaurant we were interested in. The man who escorted us to the room spoke English and pointed out various locations in the hotel (breakfast venue, onsen, lounge). He was so pleasant and courteous. Onsen is large and very relaxing. We had a wonderful stay.

The hotel was so enjoyable. We booked the room with a private onsen. It really was like what I had dreamed a stay in Japan would be like. Truly exception. Take advantage of the yukata, robe and slippers.

The room was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. Friendly and accomodating staff.
The in door hot spring is huge and comfortable. I was able to relax to my heart's content. The outside bath is smaller but still nice.
The breakfast at the hotel is delicious. We were late to breakfast but the staff still set up a plate for us, which my family was very thankful for. Make sure to try the hot spring egg.
I would highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Tendo city.
