"We had a great stay at Route Inn Hotel! The staff was friendly, helpful, and welcoming. Our hotel room was clean and comfortable, with many useful amenities, including a refrigerator, which was very convenient. One thing to note is that even though we had already paid for the hotel, we were asked to pay an additional Sendai accommodation tax of 300 yen per person at check-in. It would have been helpful to know about this extra fee in advance. The public bath was very nice, clean, and...

Hotel Grand Bach Sendai

10/10 Excellent

"The best thing of this place is the music of Bach is played at the front desk all the time. At the room, there is a small blue tooth speaker for you to play the music you like.

Hotel & Spa TOPOS Sendai Station - Caters to Men

8/10 Good

"A good place if only in Sendai for a couple days or planning to traverse the city more than stay in hotel. Expected thin walls between capsules but not between floors. Was on 1F (bottom bunk) & could hear EVERYONE walking around in bathroom above on 2F. Also the pillows are myeh!! You can ask for more for free but still not great. Worst part. Checkout is at 10am. However they close the whole onsen including ONLY showered facilities at 9:30am. So if you want to do a later shower before checkout….out of luck. Not guest friendly!"

Sendai Washington Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"近仙台車站交通方便。一樓旁就是全家便利商店，每層樓有飲水機可以裝，房間、浴室大小再日本算是可以，櫃檯工作人員態度親切，很棒的經驗，會想回住。'"
