Sendai Akiu Onsen Kagabino-yu Ryokusuitei

After helping my daughter move, I stayed at Akiu Onsen to unwind. The open-air bath lit by a bonfire had a wonderful atmosphere, and even though it was cold outside, it warmed me through to the core. Every dish was delicious—I thoroughly enjoyed both Sendai beef and abalone—and the complimentary coffee was also excellent. Above all, the hospitality was outstanding and made me want to stay again.

It was my first time visiting Akiu Onsen, and thanks to the free Shuttle Service bus from Sendai Station, the trip was very smooth. Ryokusuitei is a historic Ryokan, and I was able to relax and enjoy a comfortable stay with great Onsen baths and meals. The weather wasn’t good so I couldn’t use the open-air bath with bonfire lighting, but the indoor bath was also spacious with excellent water.
