APA Hotel Akita Senshu Koen

About this stay

APA Hotel Akita Senshu Koen trades a few extra minutes from the Shinkansen platform for a genuinely close position to Senshu Park, about a three-minute walk away, making it one of the better-located budget options for anyone prioritising the castle grounds over the station itself. Rooms are simple and Western-style with free wired internet and video-on-demand movies included on the flat-screen TV at no extra charge, a nice touch at this price point. Air-conditioned rooms have carpeted floors, a fridge and an electric kettle with green tea bags provided, and guests can wear the hotel's Japanese yukata robes with in-room slippers for a bit of local character. The en-suite bathroom includes a hairdryer and toothbrush sets, and relaxing massages can be arranged for an extra cost. A coin-launderette sits on site, useful mid-trip, alongside photocopying services and 24-hour front-desk luggage storage, and a trouser press is available to borrow. Kawabata Street, the main dining strip, is a ten-minute walk away, and Akita Airport is a thirty-five-minute drive. A breakfast buffet is available each morning.
