Suiden Terrace seems to float in a sea of green rice.
Walking along the long strokes of the entrance, you follow the lush green rice.
After climbing the atrium staircase, you will reach the lobby on the second floor.
The sunlight pours in through the large windows, and the spacious space has an open feel, reminiscent of an art museum.
We stayed at the hotel with a plan that included dinner and breakfast.
All of the dishes made with ingredients from Shonai were delicious, and for dinner we enjoyed an appetizer of short pasta with conch and tomatoes, pan-fried tilefish, and roasted Shonai duck paired with sake and wine from Yamagata Prefecture.
For breakfast, we ate our fill of local cuisine made with ingredients from Shonai, gazing at the rice fields swaying like waves in the breeze and Mt. Gassan towering beyond.
The large public bath, which is equipped with an open-air bath and sauna, is also surrounded by rice fields, so you can relax and unwind while feeling the pleasant breeze.
You can drink in the lounge, but we had local beers, a session IPA and a pale ale, in our room.
