Experience of the stay
A hotel located in the middle of rice fields in Tsuruoka City, Yamagata Prefecture, close to the sea. I stayed at the long-awaited Suiden Terrace in early autumn when the heat still lingered.
It was the middle of a three-day weekend, but thanks to HarH, I was able to book at a great price!
The beautiful interior designed by architect Shigeru Ban was stylish and spacious despite its simplicity. There were many books in the hotel, and although it was rainy on the first day, I found some interesting books, making it perfect for reading.
There was also a private room filled with books for guests only, which became my favorite spot in this lovely space.
There is also a uniquely shaped onsen, and while I didn’t use it, the sauna seemed to be famous.
Since I had a breakfast plan, I went to the restaurant the next morning. The food was delicious, and enjoying breakfast on the terrace bathed in sunshine was exceptional!
This is a hotel I'll want to visit again and again.
