Hotel Kinoshita Akita-Oga-Ekimae

"I stayed for several nights because I was going to visit the Oga Aquarium (lol). It was very clean, the staff were friendly, and I was able to relax and rest during my stay. I'm so grateful that a business hotel has opened in Oga City!"

Seiko Grand Hotel

"The outside of the room is exposed to large windows and only a thin curtain, so it is difficult to sleep on the window bed due to the cold air. The meal composition is good, but it seems that the dishes should be improved as they are served cold. The friendliness of the staff is quite high."

Hotel Park Terrace OGA

"I came to Oga City specifically to see Namahage (the Japanese demon), and stayed at a hotel near Funagoeshi Station, two stops away from Oga Station. The hotel itself faces the river, and it's about a 20-minute walk from Funagoeshi Station. There were Namahage keychains and figurines everywhere around the reception area, and a small corner of a souvenir shop next door. The Namahage keychains were even cheaper than at the Namahage Museum. Before leaving, I bought a blue Namahage station keychain to complete my set with the red one I bought at the museum. The receptionist was incredibly friendly and welcoming. There was free coffee and juice available next to the reception until 7:30 PM. There was also free, unlimited ice cream at the exit of the public bath on the first floor, which you could take to your room. The room was quite clean, the table was long enough to put things on, and the window had a river view. It rained in the evening, and the flags fluttering outside were very loud, so I could hear them from inside the room. Thankfully, the wind stopped at night, and I slept very well. The meal included two meals. The 2-hour timed dinner was a BBQ set meal where you grill your own meat. A large platter included fish, shrimp, conch, pork, chicken, and beef. While the presentation was a bit messy, the portion was enough for one person. Rice and miso soup were complimentary and self-service, along with a 90-minute buffet of soft drinks. Breakfast was also a buffet, mainly consisting of various sausages, meatballs, and tamagoyaki (Japanese rolled omelets). Drinks included milk and coffee; although the selection was limited, it was still filling. After leaving the hotel, a 20-minute walk across the bridge led to a giant Namahage (demon) statue. There was a platform in front of the statue where you could hold your phone. A very satisfying trip to this off-the-beaten-path attraction!"

"The staff were very kind and I had heard that the food was delicious. I had to leave early because I had to take care of some business, but next time I'd like to take my time."

Yuzankaku (Oga Onsen)

"I was able to make a reservation by one person on the system, but it seems that I can't stay unless there are two or more people. I hope it will be helpful for other people."

Oga Kanko Hotel

"I stayed at the Oga Kanko Hotel while in Akita attending the Namahage Festival. By it's outward appearance, the hotel feels like it's from another era. It's older and the building seems to have lived through the by-gone days of Japan's Bubble Jidai. So, I'd ask that you not judge the hotel on it's outward appearance because the staff are so incredibly friendly and helpful, the dinner course was really tasty, the sake selection superb, and the onsen divine. The rooms are well heated and the beds very comfortable. The shuttle service from the station to the hotel, and from the hotel to the festival (and, back) were great. I plan to come to the Namahage Festival next year and will absolutely stay at Oga Kanko."
