The hotel is located in the center of Akita City, the capital of Akita Prefecture where Japan's most famous rice is said to originate from. The city is rich in natural resources like alpine mountains, pine forests, large lakes and outdoor natural hot springs that are known for their health benefits. Akita is also the origin of the Akita dog breed, the same as the landmark Hachiko statue, as well as the final station for the Komachi Shinkansen, currently the fastest Shinkansen in Japan. Akita is also the center for travelling to northeastern Honshu cities in Japan and is a great introduction to a trip around Tohoku.
