Hotel Metropolitan Akita

“Excellent and Convenient Hotel Next to the Akita Station”

I highly recommend this hotel because of its location right next to the Akita station. It is clear and beautiful. The price is reasonable for such a large and professionally-run hotel. Super value for anyone visiting Akita.

This 3-1/2-star hotel wins the award for the most convenient location on our trip to northern Japan because the Metropolitan sits right next to the train station with a walkway that basically gets you to the front entrance. We were using it as a home base for short, hour-long train rides to experience the samurai houses and bucolic scenery in the greater prefecture. The Metropolitan was definitely a spiffier accommodation than most of our other hotels and at 13,680 JPY or $125 per night, it was a decent bargain for a Standard Twin room and worthy of the two nights that my husband and I stayed there. It was also a good thing that Akita was an eminently walkable city with a shopping mall and an extended commercial corridor extending from the other side of the station. As with all the hotels on our trip, the front desk staff was polite and very accommodating despite our limited ability to communicate. Definitely recommended.

“Hotel which is extremely close to Akita station”

This hotel is just a 2 mins walk from Akita station. Quite a lot of eatery shops near the hotel. It's a nice hotel if you simply want to spend 1-2 days in Akita then take the JR to other Aomori prefecture.

“Do catch the Shirakame Resort train from Akita to Aomori but only stay in Akita the night before departure”

Hotel Metropolitan Akita was easy to find when arriving off the shinkansen. We chose to upgrade to a corner room which was very comfortable and quite light and spacious.

Hotel Metropolitan Akita was easy to find when arriving off the shinkansen. We chose to upgrade to a corner room which was very comfortable and quite light and spacious. We chose to stay 2 nights to slow down from our train travel from Kyoto via Sendai to Akita waiting for the Shirakame Resort train to go north, which incidentally was most enjoyable and also take a look at Akita. In hindsight one night would have been sufficient as Akita had little to offer a tourist, in our view, and we felt this day could have been better spent elsewhere, perhaps an extra day in Hakodate. We did have a couple of memorable authentic local meals which gives a true immersion into Japanese dining and even though language was a divide we experienced kindness from restaurant waiters in Akita.
