Sanriku Hana Hotel Hamagiku

The ocean is right in front of you. If the weather had been good, we would have enjoyed the beach, but with a typhoon approaching we couldn’t go outside, which was disappointing. The sound of the waves at night was also quite loud. We chose our dinner time at check-in. Breakfast can be taken at any time during the service hours, but seating seems to be first-come, first-served and it can get crowded depending on the time. There was a wide variety of breakfast dishes, which was great. Please note that the parking spaces and lanes are narrow, so extra care is needed.

I traveled to the coastal area of Iwate and stayed here. A typhoon was approaching, so I was worried I might not be able to see the ocean right in front of me, but the weather held up on the day of my stay and I was able to enjoy the view. The meals featured mainly seafood, and the abalone in particular was incredibly delicious. I also appreciated the complimentary ice pop after bathing.It’s not a brand-new building, but my Room was clean, and all of the staff were warm and welcoming. Next time, I’d love to stay again on a sunny day. Thank you very much.
