Experience of the stay
Since I had a business trip to Sendai planned, I decided to stay at the "Daiwa Roynet Hotel Sendai Ichibancho PREMIER" again because I had a great experience during my last stay.
What I especially liked was:
・The toilet and bath are separate, allowing ample space to stretch out in the bathtub.
・There are three types of hair dryers, allowing for quick drying!
・There is a convenience store on the first floor, and the shopping district is nearby, so I never had trouble finding meals.
It's within walking distance from Sendai Station, and even using buses or trains, it’s just about one station away, so the access is excellent. The movement around the city is smooth, so I highly recommend it.
If I have plans to come to Sendai again, I will definitely choose this hotel again.
Experiences during the trip
This time I visited Sendai for a business trip, but I organized my schedule to allow for sightseeing before and after.
Day 1 (Arrival day)
I took the "Loople Sendai" bus that tours around the city. Here are the places I visited:
・Zuihoden
・The Ruins of Sendai Castle
・Osaki Hachiman Shrine
Zuihoden was very beautiful! I was so curious about how it was made because its luxurious exterior was quite impressive. As I toured around the ruins of Sendai Castle, I noticed that Sendai has quite a variety of elevations.
I felt the bus ride had a lot of bumps (sweat).
Day 2 (The day after work ended and the day of return)
I went to Matsushima, known as one of Japan's three scenic views.
I was eager to ride the tourist boat that goes around the islands of Matsushima. Among the islands, "Nioujima" left a strong impression on me with its striking formation shaped by the various elements of nature.
I recommend enjoying the view from the second deck of the boat (extra fee required).
Additionally, I got really hooked on the sasakamaboko experience. I bought some as souvenirs and I still enjoy it as a snack or with drinks.
I had oysters, and before returning home, I ate hime take oroshi soba at Sendai Airport.
Delicious gourmet foods I had in Sendai:
・Beef Tongue (Date’s Beef Tongue Honpo)
・Gyoza (Genuine Sendai One-Bite Gyoza Azuma for dinner during my stay)
・Oyster Curry Bread (Pensee Matsushima Store)
・Sasa Kamaboko (Matsushima Kamaboko Honpo Main Store)
・Matsushima Fish Market (Grilled Oysters)
