My room was very spacious and beautifully arranged. It really had a "premium" feeling to it. Great location. Morioka is a car-centric city, with a lot of multiple-lanes roads impeding pedestrian traffic. But this hotel is located in the walkable part of the city. Plus, there is a Starbucks right in the (beautiful) lobby. It is quite far from the train station, and there are hotels more convenient in that regard; but the station area is not really a pleasant place to be (lots of cars), so it really depends on what you prioritize. Outstanding breakfast with an incredible number of varied dishes, all delicious. The check-in experience was just perfect.

The bar is overpriced, with a table charge. The elevator is oddly old compared to the rest of the facilities. But it works well and fast, so indeed it would be a waste to replace it. I guess it can be seen as quaint, and this item moved to the plus side...

Beautiful hotel and our room was beautiful and spacious. It's about 14 minuets walk from Morioka station at a very lively area with lots of restaurants and izakayas, and it's very close to the castle (we took a taxi to get to the hotel and it was very cheap). There's a starbacks that's a part of the hotel. The staff were great and did their best to help. The breakfast buffe was great (mainly japanese food)

Nothing! Would come back if I have the chance :)

The room was very pleasant with a good set up. It was nice to have a sofa and the bath was larger than some business hotels. Starbucks on the first floor was convenient for breakfast.

The smoking room was in the hall outside our room. We could smell some smoke in our room, but it wasn't overpowering. The rates were high, but probably to be expected because of Obon.

Very clean and comfortable hotel in the center of Morioka.

Because of a combination of obon week and late booking, we paid DOUBLE the usual fee. Booking the same room the following week would have been much much cheaper and I never like when hotel prices fluctuate THAT much.

Royal Morioka is a business style hotel; very clean and efficient. Breakfast offered many options. We rented a car at the station and drove out to Koiwai Farm to eat ice cream!

Very friendly staff, large and comfortable room, excellent breakfast for about 1500 yen. Starbucks on the ground floor (basically in the lobby) serves good coffee.

Clean, spacious, excellent value for money. The room was nicer than I anticipated for the price.

It’s a bit of a walk from Morioka station. Not terrible, but with luggage it might feel long.

The hotel was in the heart of Morioka’s cinema street. Close and walkable to the sights and amazing cafes. Great customer service.

Nice hotel in central Morioka (10min walk from train station). Refurbished rooms with nice interior and very comfortable beds. Would stay again if I go.

The interior is stylish. Breakfast is great.

Location is bit away from Moriowa station still it is walkable or local buses available.
