I stayed at Hotel Monte Hermana Sendai (ホテルモンテエルマーナ仙台) during my trip to Sendai. This hotel is part of Motray Group. A pedestrian bridge connects the hotel directly to JR Sendai Station, making it very convenient. I chose a plan without meals because I wanted to enjoy breakfast outside.
The entrance leads directly to the front desk.
The elevators require a key card to operate, adding an extra layer of security. They stop only at your designated floor and public floors. Additionally, the entrance to the room floors is locked, and a key card is required to access them. This setup ensures excellent security.
There is a welcome drink service located in a room near the front desk, available until 10 p.m. A coffee machine and tea bags are provided free of charge, and you’re welcome to take your drink back to your room. Since the area is small, I rarely saw anyone drinking there directly.
A microwave is also available for guests to use.
Each room includes a private bathtub, but the hotel also offers a large public bath on the 9th floor. While photos aren’t allowed, I can share that there are two baths: one with a sauna and one without. The baths alternate daily between men and women. The operating hours are from 7 p.m. to 12 a.m., which feels a bit short. However, guests are allowed to wear pajamas and slippers between their rooms and the bath area for convenience.
This bathroom is not freely accessible. Upon entering through the first door, there’s a reception area where the staff keeps your room key. Only after handing over the key are you allowed to enter the bathroom. Once you’re done and step out, the staff returns your key, and you can head back to your room.
I stayed in a Ladies’ Room located on the Ladies’ Floor.
The single room was small but clean and well-maintained. It included thoughtful amenities such as a bottle of mineral water, a humidifying air purifier, an air conditioner, a refrigerator, and Wi-Fi. The view from the window wasn’t particularly noteworthy—just the neighboring hotel—but it didn’t bother me much since I spent most of my time inside the room or out exploring.
The bathroom was equipped with shampoo and body soap, and basic toiletries like a toothbrush, razor, and comb were available at the front desk.
While not on my floor, there were convenient facilities like a coin laundry, a drying machine, a vending machine for drinks, and an ice maker. These amenities made it comfortable for longer stays, as you wouldn’t need to venture out for such necessities.
