Aizuwakamatsu Washington Hotel

“clean, fantastic location”

It was fine. Yes, the decor in the rooms probably hasn't been updated in thirty years, but that's not what matters.

It was fine. Yes, the decor in the rooms probably hasn't been updated in thirty years, but that's not what matters. It was clean (no mold as stated in some reviews), the air conditioning works, the lobby was nice, and the employees at the front desk were very helpful- including watching my luggage in the morning before I was allowed to check in. You cannot beat this location, especially if taking the circular tourist bus that runs from the train station is something you plan on.

“Practical, comfortable and convenient”

I stayed overnight in a very compact but also very practical room with everything I needed. The space was well-designed with a good-sized desk which had three powerpoints above it (yay! doesn't happen everywhere), so easy to plug in tablet and accessories, and also charge phone and camera battery. … more

I stayed overnight in a very compact but also very practical room with everything I needed. The space was well-designed with a good-sized desk which had three powerpoints above it (yay! doesn't happen everywhere), so easy to plug in tablet and accessories, and also charge phone and camera battery. Small fridge and tv, humidifier, electric jug, nighshirt and complimentary slilppers. Lovely ceramic tea mugs. I did find the waste bins a little small (no recycling but that's often the case in Japanese hotels). Wi fi worked well, and there was a radio. The comfortable bed had a nice flat pillow and lighting console conveniently placed. The bathroom was small but there was a good deep bath. Interesting city and mountain views from the room. The hotel lobby was attractively decorated. The location was conveniently close to the JR Station as well as eateries and some shops. Good value, and would stay again.

“Decent business hotel”

Decent but a very dated hotel. Parking is free nearby but not at the hotel. There is free bath powder at the front desk. There is a 7-eleven just across the street which is very convenient. The staff are friendly. Not much complaints about this hotel.

“Not to Washington Group of hotel standard”

While listing as walking distance from the aizu-wakamatsu station, it could not be sighted from the exit of the station. As usual, a kind japanese staff at the bus terminal showed us the way. The hotel is hidden by another tall building. The hotel is hidden behind the Tokio Marine building. It's about 5 to 10 minutes walk from the station. If you have large luggages, it's a tough walk as the road leading to the hotel is rough and you need to negotiate 2 traffic lights. It's a fairly old hotel. On checking in, we were told that due to maintenance there will be no electricity until past 4 pm. Room is small and could barely fit 2 large suitcases. Breakfast was just adequate. However, there are not many other hotels in Aizuwakamatsu near the station
