Richmond Hotel Aomori

“Very spacious room”

We only stayed here for one night but it was an excellent stay. Our triple room was the most spacious we had seen in Japan and was extremely comfortable.

We only stayed here for one night but it was an excellent stay. Our triple room was the most spacious we had seen in Japan and was extremely comfortable. Although the hotel is on the corner of a main road, we could not hear any noise and had a good night's sleep. The breakfast buffet was not a huge spread but had ample choices and was delicious. In case you are driving, you might want to know that the affiliated carpark is vertical parking which needed some maneuvering, but there were staff to provide directions.

“Amazing service!”

We stayed in the Richmond Hotel for 14-nights, averaging ¥10,000 (US$92) per night for a Hollywood Twin room (25m2 or 275 sq. ft.) over Christmas & New Year. Parking (mechanical parking, but usually only a 2-minute wait) with in-&-out privileges was ¥900 per day. The staff were just amazing. Some… lisää

We stayed in the Richmond Hotel for 14-nights, averaging ¥10,000 (US$92) per night for a Hollywood Twin room (25m2 or 275 sq. ft.) over Christmas & New Year. Parking (mechanical parking, but usually only a 2-minute wait) with in-&-out privileges was ¥900 per day. The staff were just amazing. Some of the most friendly, helpful, & patient service that I have ever received anywhere in the world! Because of the new year, a lot of restaurants were fully booked or closed, but the team were very patient to help us book our party of 9 into restaurants that they could find. There was always someone at the front desk who was fluent in English. It was also a great staging point for us to head to the ski resorts. And the duck soba restaurant next door, Kaneshime Kakizaki Soba, was a frequent favourite. The Richmond Hotel was further from the train / bus station than most of the other hotels, but was still a firm favourite that delivered on all counts!

“Average hotel”

Beautiful entrance and clean modern look. Room is decent sized with all the standard amenities given. Walkable to the town centre. Skip breakfast as the quality is not high and it is the same every day with little variation.

“Severely dated but very friendly ”

Aomori is definitely a must-stop if you're exploring northern Honshu and on your way to or from Hokkaido. This dated three-star hotel, however, is not quite a must-stay, though its location is pretty convenient to both the waterfront and Aomori Station.

Aomori is definitely a must-stop if you're exploring northern Honshu and on your way to or from Hokkaido. This dated three-star hotel, however, is not quite a must-stay, though its location is pretty convenient to both the waterfront and Aomori Station. My husband and I stayed just overnight en route to Akita, and our room was a Comfort Queen for 17,240 JPY or $158 for the night, a bit overpriced given the furnishings. The hotel starts on the fifth floor of a pretty standard office building, but it's well kept. No complaints about the front desk staff either. Even though they didn't speak a word of English, they were quite determined to respond to everything I asked in my cryptic version of Japanese. Kudos for their effort.
