Hotel is a bit from the downtown, but it is surrounded by very friendly neighborhood with everyhing properly located within 15min walking distance. Another interesting point is that it almost felt like as if I am in rich suburban city from the States or Europe.

建物が古く、時代を感じましたが とても素敵なホテルでした。 ただ、建物が古いせいか お風呂場が汚かったり、 エキストラベッドの入れ方が 変だったりしました。 朝食は、ビュッフェ形式で 洋食から仙台の和食まで多くの種類があり どれも美味しく楽しめました。 アウトレットが併設されていたので、 次は連泊したいと考えています。

The hotel was beautiful. The service was impeccable. The room was immaculate. The breakfasts had a huge selection and were wonderful. Everyone was so friendly and professional. Truly one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve stayed in. Also, thank you for accommodating our family of four with a fair rate and sizable suite!
