Located in a quiet place close to the city center. The large communal bath is available for 24 hour. Our garden was selected as the 100 beautiful gardens of Shonai Area (old name of Yamagata and Akita Area). The inn is like a museum of native authors. The rare Sakata Kokeshi (Japanese traditional wooden doll) has been reproduced and exclusively on sale (available) in our inn.

We had a very pleasant stay in Wakaba Ryokan. The room for 2 was perhaps a bit small but very tidy and beautifully decorated. The futons were good and clean. The onsen is really good with plenty of room and plenty of soap and shampoo to choose from. Breakf

An excellent place to relax and enjoy delicous food. The service was outstanding and went out of their way to make my stay comfortable. The host is fluent in English and most helpful. The dinner was a memorable experience with excellent local seafood.

“Very conveniently located in the center of Sakata”
We stayed at this ryokan on an overnight stay with no meal. I had always wanted to try this ryokan. It was my first time in Sakata in a long time, and I considered staying at a business hotel, but there was no difference in price, so I highly recommend this ryokan. The room itself is not large, but it is enough to stay there. I gave it 4 stars because I did not use the large bath and meals. We ate outside, but would definitely like to eat at a ryokan next time. I wanted to try Sakata Ramen and there is a restaurant a few minutes walk away that opens at 7 am. It was my first time to try ramen for breakfast, and it was great. I would like to use this hotel again when I visit Sakata.
