The only issue was that in the lobby there was a diesel or mechanical smell. Everything ekse was good.

The room was very warm despite setting the AC at 20*C (lowest it would go). When we talked to the front desk tgey said its central AC but offered us a portable AC unit to cool the room down. It didnt work cery well and we both sweated through our 2 nights there. Otherwise nice hotel and location.
Excellent Staff. I would like to say thank you very much again to the gentlemen on duty on 12th July. I carelessly parked at a Monthly parking space and he helped me to call the car park company and solve the possible penalty problem. I forget to ask his name, but if Hotel Royal Morioka can see this comment, please help me to say thank you to him and I am very happy to tell all my friends to stay at this hotel!
Superior double room is spacious by Japanese standards. Comfortable & clean. Simple no frills hotel. Hotel is not near station. Taxi to & from morioka station is affordable, between ¥600 - ¥800 one way. Breakfast is surprisingly good. Especially their French toast & thick yogurt drink. Must try! There’s a restaurant opposite on the right that sells Nattosoba & gyoza. Highly recommend checking it out too.
I come to morioka often and this is so far now my favorite hotel. The room is big for Japan hotels, comfortable bed, clean room, clean bathroom and close to nice shops/restaurants. Staff knew enough English to help me which is very nice. Will definitely be going back.
At first, the Starbucks entrance confused me but I was helped. The location is convenient to everything and the staff was very nice. The only critique would be that there are no dressers, not sure if this is typical or if it depends on room selection. There was no iron, so I couldn't press my shirts. These are just minor issues that did not take away from my overall experience
Located near the Morioka Castle ruins, about a 10 minute walk. Nearby nightlife was fun but limited. If you arrive for the wanko soba challenge, it’s a 15 minute walk.
Rooms were exceptional, bringing traditional colours and concepts into modern developments of convenience in a beautiful area. Although minimalist cooking appliances such as kettle and microwave however there is no need when located directly next to a street of varying Japanese food. Beyond this I thoroughly enjoyed my stay and highly recommend to others
I liked this hotel a lot, the ground floor is a Starbucks. The room was very comfortable and quiet. The staff was helpful. 15 minutes from the station, really close to the castle ruins
