Dormy Inn Aomori Natural Hot Spring

Absolutely loved the public bath on the rooftop. It was so refreshing to have part of it outside and an actual ice cold bath. Cute to have the peepholes with shutters so you could look outside while no one could look inside. The inside bath made my skin supersmooth. Nice dry sauna. Cool idea to have shower baskets with shampoo and conditioner for specific hairtypes to choose from. There was also a magnificent massage chair 👌 the extras like ice cream and free ramen were also appreciated. Loved how they decorated it with traditional Aomori Nebuta made by a local famous artist. They had tourist information on their tv which was really helpful. Room was small but everything was there, even space to hang your clothes to dry after washing them for free. Breakfast was abundant and well taken care of with a lot of diversity. Staff were all very helpful and kind. The apple juice was delicious ❤️ This hotel is worth going to Aomori for!

Location is strategic, just 3 blocks down to the bay area. Loved walking around especially during sunset. There's nothing much to do around Aomori itself but I loved my 3 night staycation at the Dormy Inn. The spa facilities are well maintained and top notch. The reviews from other folks are true around food and freebies. Yes it's further away from the Aomori station but if you are coming from the airport, just take an airport limousine bus and get dropped off at Kencho-dori bus stop, right by the hotel! Going back is just right across the other side! Super convenient!

Dormy Inn is exactly as advertised. Not a luxury experience, but an extremely efficient and well-run hotel with a few unique features. The baths were clean with good natural hot spring water, and there were free snacks available outside the baths in a common area, which seemed to promote a certain amount of socializing, especially among the many Chinese-speaking guests.

The staff were uniformly wonderful. As for the location, I usually prefer to stay close to the train station, especially if I am planning on any day trips. The Dormy is about 10-15 minute walk away (can take a bus to within a block, but we never bothered), but there are lots of restaurants, etc., nearby to make up for this. The public bath (which had an outdoor bath included) was the highlight. I would definitely stay here again.

Everything was perfect at this hotel - staff were super helpful, entire building and facilities were clean and tidy, and so many complimentary services! - Fresh apple juice, Ramen noodle at night, Massage chair experience after Onsen etc... One of the best hotels we ever stayed in Japan! I'd also highly recommend you to add breakfast too! Variation of food you can get is fantastic. The location was great too and only 10mins walkaway from the Aomori station. Highly recommend!!
