Daiwa Roynet Hotel Hachinohe

The hotel is located in a very convenient location close to shopping and restaurants. The hotel staff is very friendly and we were assisted by an English speaking clerk. We were placed in a corner room on the 9th floor which was very spacious. The food was very tasty. The only drawback was that it is located far from Hachinohe Train Station. We went there via taxi as we had a lot of luggage with us. If you travel light, you could go by local train to Hon Hachinohe Station which is about 6 minutes walk to the hotel.

The hotel is clean, comfortable, quiet, and conveniently located in the city center. The hotel front desk is on the 2nd floor and the staff is extremely courteous. Communicating in English can be a problem depending upon the staff member but they will do their best to help you out the best they can. I stayed in a single room - the room and bathroom sizes were pretty good compared to many Japanese hotels. Wifi signal was strong and without any signal dropouts (and no password). Hotel is located about 10 min walk from Hon Hachinoe station. There is a bus stop about 50 feet from the hotel. Trains to and from Hon Hachinoe station are infrequent (1 per hour) while bus service is more frequent so if you are going to Hachinoe station (to catch Shinkansen) or if you are going to the coast to Same you may consider taking the bus. There are many restaurants within 5 min walking distance from the hotel. There is a convenience store (Lawson) on the first floor just by the hotel entrance. By the way, you can get bus and train timetables in English from the tourist office in Hachinoe station. I highly recommend staying at Daiwa Roynet Hotel as I had a good experience with them. On a side note, I did not find much to do in Hachinoe area itself but go to the coast. Take bus or train to Same and then take a sightseeing bus from there along the coast but I decided to walk about 3 miles along the coast (and take the bus back to Same) - gorgeous views!

Clean, location and value.

I enjoyed my stay and I requested for upgrade to bigger room with just minimal extra charge. The reception staff was very helpful and tried her best to answer my queries.
