When you come to Sendai, and if you are tired of feeling cramped staying in a small hotel room in the center of the city, there's one place you can enjoy space not-so-far-away from JR Sendai Station. Just a 20-minute car ride away from JR Sendai Station, Best Western Hotel Sendai provides you with a 35㎡-room with a great view of the city at a reasonable price (6,500 to 10,000 yen per night). It has a swimming pool, spa and fitness club along with the adjacent Sendai Hills Golf Club course. However, be prepared for this: When you arrive at the hotel, you will find a huge, tall statue of Sendai Daikannon (goddess of mercy) standing next to the hotel waiting for you. And if you are lucky (or unlucky), when you open the windows of your room, the statue might be staring at you...up close!

Hi Justin! Nice pics! Yes, it's a massage chair in a room. I wonder if you could add these photos to the photo story?!

This is a really nice hotel! I walked through it once when I attended an event.
Is that a massage chair in the room?
I wanted to provide a pic of the Daikannon next to the hotel for comparison. The next shot is the hotel from inside the statue!

Nadhira, if you look at the top of this website, you will find a "Book a hotel" tab. You can use this link to book hotels in Japan (or anywhere in the world) at a discount!

I stayed in Best Western Hotel too but in Shinjuku. The hotel was nice and they also provide free Wi-Fi! Plus if anyone want to book this hotel, you can book via agoda.com or any other hotel booking site to get cheaper price. They also have early bird 14 days price before your arrival to the hotel :D
