Hotel B4T Kakunodate

Die Lage, 20‘ Minuten von der Samurai Strasse. Parkplatz gegenüber das Hotel. Grosses sauberes Zimmer.

Das alles via Computer geht. Ein-&Auschecken noch noch mit AI. Kein persönliche Kontakt, keine Nachfrage oder Informationen Austausch!

No interactions with staff whatsoever. Full self-service from dropping luggage to check in and out. Right outside the station but very, very quiet. A window that opened!

Absolutely.nothing

Very interesting hotel concept. No local staff, just a check-in/check-out machine to deliver room keys and to leave the room keys. Before arrival I was worried about this concept, but it worked very well. The hotel had the usual facilities for a Japanese hotel: lobby with microwave and tables for eating, coin laundry and self-service luggage store with number locks. No local staff means also no breakfast, but in the lobby there was a coffee machine, also the room had coffee/tea facilities and it was possible to buy breakfast items either from the railway station convenience store (note that it closes at 19:00) or from the nearby (15 min by walking) hypermarket with very wide selection of food (also good for buying food for dinner to be heated by the micro in the lobby). The hotel location is convenient for traveling as it is connected to the railway station. But this means that everything else, for example, the famous samurai houses and restaurants are quite far away, although within walking distance

The location is very central , next door to the station

I have stayed here previously and there was breakfast available and there were reception staff. I do not like comlete lack of human contact , it is very isolating and unpleasant for a tourist destination . We found restaurant staff, taxi drivers and the other people we met very friendly . We would not stay at this accomodation again
