Hotels in Yamagata:

Search ryokans and hotels in Japan with the selected Japanese and global travel sites.

Do you have a plan to visit Japan? Are you looking for a ryokan or hotel to stay in Japan? It is hard to find good quality reasonably priced accommodation, isn't it?
Especially when you travel to a country with totally different culture and language like Japan.

I love travelling and my travel budget is usually (quite often..., almost always...) TIGHT! I tend to gather information as much as I can for my travel planning to find the best deals possible. And I thought some of you might do the same.

So here I am, trying to make things easier for you as I probablly know about Japan more than most of you do. (I left Japan in 1994, but still visit there annually, and also I worked in the tourism industry for 3.5 years in Japan.) I hope you find some of the information useful.
