We had such a great time during this class, a must do if you have a spare 2 hours! The instructor was very friendly and we had interesting conversation as we made our sweets and matcha. It is worth doing both activities together so that you can enjoy your sweets with the matcha.

It was a very pleasant experience. I booked an early morning kimono fitting, and Klook happened to have a special deluxe package on sale (30% off). This included choosing the best yukata, three accessories, and a two-star hairstyle. As someone who struggles with choices, the staff worked hard to give me suggestions, and the resulting outfit was indeed luxurious and cute. It's quite different from wearing a standard yukata, so I recommend everyone try the deluxe package for a more special experience.

If you’re in Sendai, make this a must-do! The class is fantastic and incredibly beginner-friendly. You’ll leave with a traditional Japanese dessert you’ve made yourself. I thoroughly enjoyed this class; it offered a wonderful insight into Japanese culture through food. I was the only student when I attended and I had a great time laughing and chatting with the teacher throughout. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon!

Photographer Lewis Lee possesses a unique vision and a professional aesthetic. His work is incredibly natural and vivid, and I am beyond satisfied with the results. I highly recommend him!

Overall, my stay at this hotel was quite pleasant. The front desk staff was friendly, clear, and efficient during check-in, making me feel valued. The room was a decent size, clean, and the bed was soft and comfortable, allowing for a restful sleep. The room was well-equipped with a TV, refrigerator, and toiletries, all of which were convenient to use. The hotel environment was quiet, with good soundproofing, so I wasn't disturbed during the night. The public areas were kept very clean, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing. The location was also convenient, with shops and restaurants nearby, making it easy to get around. All in all, this stay was satisfactory. The service quality, cleanliness, and comfort were all excellent. If I have the opportunity, I would be willing to stay here again and would recommend it to friends and family.

It's a 5-minute brisk walk from the station if you don't have luggage. If you have a lot of bags, you might wish you had stayed somewhere closer. The breakfast was delicious, and there weren't many people between 8:30 AM and 10:00 AM when I went, so I ate very comfortably. However, if it's not already included, it's not necessarily worth adding on.

Very convenient, close to Sendai Station, close to car rental, close to shopping areas. The hotel is quiet, clean, and the reception staff is attentive. Easy check-in. Delicious breakfast. The pictures in the review are for a single occupancy room.

Small room but that just makes it more cozy. Great selection of free amenities. staff were all wonderful. The location is honestly the best once you gauge where things are. The Sendai station is just down the street. Multiple convenience stores. Department mall is attached to the station.
