Hostels em Miyagi Prefecture, Japan

Sendai has become my second favorite city in Japan. It offers the perfect blend of chill and urban vibes — not as crowded as Tokyo, Osaka, or Sapporo, yet equally lively and enjoyable. This capsule hotel is located right along the main business street, making it very convenient for dining and shopping. There’s even an Ichiran Ramen just next door, and a famous Taiyaki shop only a 2–3 minute walk away. Sendai Station is about a 10-minute walk from the property. However, one downside is the confusing luggage policy. The hotel rules state that large luggage cannot be brought into the sleeping area, so I rented a chain lock (JPY 100) to secure my suitcase in the hallway. Despite this, many guests still brought their bags inside, so the rule seemed inconsistently enforced. For guests like me who followed the policy, it was a bit inconvenient since my capsule was quite far from the hallway and it was troublesome to retrieve my belongings each time.

The locker was spacious enough to fit my medium-sized suitcase and a decent-sized backpack with room to spare. It was also tall enough to hang a long coat, which was a great help. The shower room, toilet, and capsule itself were all very clean. Just a short walk away, there's a shopping arcade, a park, and a famous kamaboko (fish cake) shop.

Sorry that I can’t take photos of the bath house - but it is amazing (especially the outdoor onsen and air bath)!!! The capsule units are in a temporary finish. Enjoyed it very much 😍

The staff's response and care were warm. Since I stayed at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, I was entertained at seasonal events such as Toshikoshi soba, New Year's Day, and Mochi making. (in the reservation of Trip.com, it was a little disappointing that the meal plan was not selected and the menu was different from other guests ...) It was also a very valuable experience to learn about the earthquake at the facility where the remnants of elementary schools remain. The walls of the room were thin so I could hear the sound of the next room quite a bit, but the view was good and the air conditioner and fan heater were prepared and comfortable.
