Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
I liked the traditional experience but the room needs some cosmetic maintenance. Touching up the paint and repairing a little of the wooden skirting. You DO need to pre-book for dinner, but e we found a great little place just a short walk away in the town.
It located on a hill, about 15-20 mins walk from Matsushimakaigan Station. Along the way, you find shops & restaurants. There’s a ferry pier & a park, temples & a museum. You can also walk from Matsushima Station, however, I prefer Matsushimakaigan as there’re more to see. The hotel offers free shuttle pick up & drop off which is a plus.

love their rooftop. we can freely use it and took great picture from there.
A bit of an old hotel, so the condition wasn't great, but that's to be expected. What was dissapointing was the level of service. Things were constantly forgotten. First day they cleaned the room but didnt replace towels or Yukata. Second day they completely didnt clean the room, but did leave a little 'tea sweet'.
Also quite annoying that they insisted to copy the resident card (something that is not needed for residents)
Although this accomodation seemed a little dated, it rpovided a fantastic experience of an onsen. WE had a Japanese speaker wth us so that was useful in terms of understading aspects of the stay. THe dinner was a stand-out experience of traditional Japanese style dining. Good location, within walking distance of the waterfront etc.
