Homestays in Miyagi Prefecture, Japan

I've stayed here about 5 or 6 times now, and every visit, the cleanliness is impeccable and the service is excellent. The staff's polite language and their commitment to ensuring guests never feel uncomfortable truly put me at ease. This time, for the first time, I opted for a room-only stay as I wanted to enjoy a relaxing hot spring trip without any interference. (Previously, my best friend and I always chose plans with breakfast and dinner.) This kind of stay is also very reasonable, and given the reliable service, I'll continue to choose Rantei for all my future visits to Akiu Onsen, rather than trying other inns. Having just turned 60, I'm not sure how many more times I'll be able to visit... Thank you so much for everything.

Stayed one night in the main building. The room was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with good amenities. Our package included both buffet breakfast and dinner, which was a nice touch. At check-in, guests are asked to select their preferred dining times. Since the restaurant can get quite busy, I recommend choosing the earliest slot for a more relaxed experience. The onsen facilities were decent and provided a chance to unwind. Overall, it was an enjoyable and comfortable stay.

Although the drive up the mountain was a bit challenging, the environment upon arrival was beautiful. The front desk staff spoke Mandarin very well and arranged an excellent room for us. After checking in, we headed to the restaurant for dinner. The buffet offered a wide variety of dishes. After dinner, we went to the hot spring area. Besides the public bath, there were also private hot springs, which we thoroughly enjoyed! 😎 Breakfast was also very rich and plentiful. After eating our fill, we soaked in the hot springs for a bit longer. We even took some photos before leaving to capture the wonderful memories!

The location is close to the fish market between the inner bay and Tanaka Mae, so the range of action is wide, and the selection of shops is wide. Pre-check-in is very easy. It was very easy because there were few exchanges from the inn.

A cute surprise with a welcome drink What is this💕I'm so happy Keyless It's a Japanese-style room, but it's a comfortable twin bedroom It looks old, but it's been renovated wonderfully The amenities are also fine There are things like a small handbag for the bath The best thing about it is The food The concept is to value privacy It's rare to find a place where you prepare food next to each other. It's more fun to be next to each other than facing each other! Beautiful food And delicious A series of impressions For dessert, you can choose your preference in a separate room The hospitality was better than that of a first-class hotel. The service was also wonderful 💓 You can order drinks online But it was difficult to get through It was a bit slow I felt like an old man Nice support👍 There is no shower or bath in the room But it was a hotel of impeccable quality

We came to Akiu mainly to see Lu Xun's former residence, but the hotel itself was also great. Although there wasn't much of a view outside the window, Akiu Great Falls is just a short drive away. The front desk gave me a room on the top floor. The food, especially, deserves a special mention. My boyfriend ate 6 plates of the freshly grilled beef tongue, but he was still outdone by the Japanese gentleman next to us – I counted, he had 7 plates! I won't post other pictures as I see everyone else has posted plenty; I'll just share one of the massage chair. You can enjoy the view while getting a massage. It's very quiet during the day, and you can use it as much as you like without needing coins, which is much more generous than many other hotels. The parking lot is also spacious, so there's no need to worry about not finding a spot if you return late.

The staff were nice and have also tried to speak English. I recommend a little Japanese knowledge, however. The highlight of the room is the balcony, which has not only a perfect view of the bathroom, but also a bathroom with water of a hot source. The room has only futons, sleeping on the side is therefore uncomfortable. The toilet is in an extra room that was too small to me. Some killing in and outside the room are quite small, so big people have to book.

The hot springs are very good! The food is delicious because it is made with local ingredients! It is surrounded by fresh green, and I can spend it comfortably. The welcome drink bar is great and well received by families.

I had a wonderful stay at Ryokan Tsukasa in Sendai. The staff were incredibly warm and welcoming, making me feel at home right away. My room was beautifully designed in the style of a traditional Japanese house, and I had the unique experience of sleeping on the floor like a true Japanese. I also loved wearing the traditional robe provided in the room — it added an authentic touch to the stay. Everything was perfect, and I would highly recommend this ryokan to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience in Sendai!

Perfect place for relaxing after the hard weekend, onsen on site and Japanese style bedroom are perfect when you come to Japan. The manager is very very kind, gentle and helpful. The greeting message in the room when we arrived really made my day thank you 💗☺️
