The Suzukis are wonderful hosts! The traditional japanese room is big and spacious, and while no bath is available on premise, Mr. Suzuki drove me to both a public bathhouse and local restaurant in the evenings. Mrs. Suzuki had a very large and delicious japanese meal cooked up for breakfast. The pair were even kind enough to help me plan out my trip around the local area after breakfast! Located a short walk away from Hiraizumi station and an even shorter walk to the nearby Mōtsū-ji, I highly recommend Minpaku Suzuki to anyone interested in staying in Hiraizumi! Will definitely be planning another stay!

Both the hosts are very nice and they are really helpful to suggest things to see and to do in Hiraizumi. Wonderful experience in the onsen and at the restaurant. The breakfast was superb. The room is very spacious with TV, wifi, fridge, kettle for tea and coffee. Ask to Mr Suzuki to turn the heater on because it is very cold in winter time. The Minpaku is only 10 minutes on foot from the train station, 3 minutes to Motsuji temple and 20 minutes an foot from Chousun temple. Takkoku no Iwaya is 5 km far away, so you need a bike to reach it.

Very easy to find, they even hung a plate with my name on the door. I could basically use the entire second floor. The owner took me by car to a dinner place, the hot springs and to the train station. Very kind! Breakfast was very generous as well.

Everything is perfect but there is no shower for the guests, which actually provides an opportunity to use the nearby public bath (onsen) with free transfer by the owner.

Very comfortable with a very large, typical Japanese bedroom nicely decorated and all necessary amenities. Good location between the train station (10 minutes walk) and Hiraizumi’s historical sites (10 minutes walk as well to the closest one). Charming village, clean and full of flowers. The owners are extremely kind and fully dedicated to their guests, as there is only one room in the property.

I didn't feel very good about the way the bedding was made. There was no sheet cover for the blanket and they only used a tower to cover the top edge of the blanket. Also, there is no shower for the guests in the house and the host sends the guests to the nearby hotel to use the public bath there. The extra cost for the bath may not be a big deal for most people but not everyone feels comfortable for using the public bath.

Staying in the Japanese resident is a different experience. It gave me the opportunity to closely feel the Japanese lifestyle, to understand the Japanese culture more. The hosts are very nice people. The breakfast was superb. The rice was very fresh and perfectly made. It was the best Japanese breakfast in my 18 days Japan trip.

If there is an option to take a hot bath instead of going to the onsen will be good.

Mr Suzuki and his family are very warm and friendly. I like the house as it's very nicely decorated and is very clean. I had the best breakfast that Mrs Suzuki prepared. I also like the various snacks that she prepared when I arrived, returned from my day trip and onsen.

For my one night stay, there were no negative points.

The people were very friendly and helpful. The room was big and very clean and everything needed was provided. The food was delicious with a lot of variation within the same meal and the quantity was more than enough for an average eater. The location was excellent for sightseeing the area of Hiraizumi and Ichinoseki.

Authentic japanese style room, extraordinary nice hosts which are very helpful and kind, hearty breakfast. They even drove us to a very popular onsen and picked us up again.

The hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was the best we have ever had. It was a wonderful experience to stay with a Japanese family. The hogs even drove us to the local Onsen, and even when we didn‘t understand each other‘s language we were able to communicate.

Could not ask for more. This traditional Japanese style stay was absolutely amazing. The owner dropped us off and picked us up from the local onsen and local restaurant, the rooms were perfect and the breakfast was huge and absolutely delicious!!

We had a wonderful stay at Minpaku Suzuki! The hosts were very friendly and gave us a warm welcome. The room was spacious, clean and quiet. There is no bathroom but the nearby onsen is adequate. The breakfast was delicious, way above our expectations. Highly recommended!

Nothing to note.

The Suzuki’s are wonderful hosts. The room is very nice and spacious. The nearby onsen is great. The futon was comfy. The breakfast was amazing, way beyond expectations.
