Business Hotels in Miyagi District

高台にあるから眺めが良く、立地的にも、松島海岸駅からすぐ近い。 とは言え、かなりの傾斜を上がるので、電車で来た私たちは、シャトルバスを利用。 この大観荘のシャトルバスは、松島観光中心部を経由して、ほぼ一日中循環していているからありがたいです。 ロビーは広々しています。 質問があって若いスタッフに声をかけると、「研修員」の名札をつけていました。 一緒に、その上司であろう人がいましたが、研修員に対応させ見守っている様子が、なんとも和やかに感じました。 同じ感覚が、夕食の時間にも。 男性の上司が（確か名札は菊池さん）が、若いスタッフを連れて、テーブルへの案内やブッフェの説明をするのですが、私たち客に対してだけでなく、研修員にも親切で感じが良い。 この上司の下だったら頑張ろうって気になるし、本来のサービス業とは、なんぞやを学べるのでは、と思いました。 ホテル（旅館）の格付けに関わらず、良いホテルは従業員の教育が徹底しているだけでなく、いかに客に心地よいサービスを提供できるかにあると思います。 泊まったのは、海側和洋室。 古い旅館で年季が入っているんだろうな、と不安でしたが、リノベートしたらしく、思ったより綺麗で広さも十分でした。 松島湾を臨むパノラマヴューも申し分なし。 冷蔵庫は空で、お水のボトルはありませんでした。 残念。自動販売機でお水は160円。 トイレ、バスルームは別で、綺麗でした。 館内着はクロゼットに浴衣がサイズ豊富に揃っていました。 大浴場は、温泉ではなく沸かし湯で残念ですが、浅めのインフィニティ露天風呂は気持ちがよく、松島湾を一望でき良かったです。 男性用、女性用と朝晩入れ替わらないので、景色は男女ともほぼ同じなのでしょう。 サウナはありませんでした。 夕食はブッフェにしては具材が良く、期待以上の充実したディナーでした。 切り分けて頂いたローストビーフは、お上品に薄く一枚とかじゃなく、ドンとサービス精神良し。 火が通り過ぎてる？と思ったけど、柔らかくて美味しかったです。 松島なので蒸牡蠣やカキフライも。 そして大ぶりの海老チリソースも良かった。 お刺身は、まあまあ。 ちょうど苺フェアをしていて、デザートは苺三昧で嬉しかったです。 反面、朝食はイマイチ、というか、まあ一般的。 お値段以上の滞在でした。ありがとうございます。 The hotel is on top of the hill over looking Matsushima Bay. The panorama view is just wonderful. The location is close to Matsushima Kaigan station, however, since it is quite a steep climb. If you come by train, I suggest you to take a complimentary shuttle bus provided by the hotel which runs through the Matsushima tourist area almost all day long. The lobby is spacious. When I had a question and approached a young staff member, she was wearing a name tag that read ”trainee.” and she was with her boss. I felt a pleasant feeling that her boss was watching over her with smile and kind manner. The same feeling happened at dinner time. The male boss (I believe his name tag is Mr. Kikuchi) with the young staff lead us to the tables and explains the buffet. He is kind and considerate not only to us customers, but also to the trainees as well. Being trained under this boss would likely understands what a customer service industry is like. Regardless of the rating of the hotel (inn), I believe that a good hotel not only has thorough employee training, but also the ability to provide considerate service to guests. I stayed in a Japanese-Western style room facing the sea. I was worried that the inn would be outdated, but it seemed like it had been renovated, and it was much nicer and spacious than I expected. The panoramic view overlooking Matsushima Bay is also perfect. The fridge was empty and there were no water bottles. disappointing., though. Water from the vending machine costs 160 yen. The toilet and bathroom were separate and clean. As for in-house wear, there was a closet stocked with yukata in a wide variety of sizes. The public bath has boiling water rather than a hot spring, but the shallow infinity open-air bath was pleasant and had a great view of Matsushima Bay. Since the men's and women's bath facility do not change in the morning and evening, the scenery is probably the same for both men and women. There was no sauna. Dinner had good ingredients for a buf

By private car: Located about 25 km from Sendai and Ishinomaki along Route 45, and about 100 km from Kesennuma. By train: About 20 minutes on foot from Matsushima Station on the JR Tohoku Main Line, or Matsushima Kaigan Station on the JR Senseki Line. It takes about 15 minutes on foot from the station. Within a 5-minute walk from the hotel, there is Fukuura Bridge (a pier to Fukuura Island), a sightseeing boat dock, and Zuiganji Temple, making it a base for sightseeing in Matsushima. The hotel building faces the national highway, but the entrance is in the back of the alley on the sea side from the national highway, so if you follow the tourist guidebook, you can reach the hotel without any problems. The building is located between the coastline and the national highway along the cliff, so it has a slightly complicated structure and there are differences in elevation, but there is almost always a slope installed where there is a step. The interior is barrier-free. The hotel itself has a long history and the exterior of the building still feels old, but the interior is kept clean and the single rooms are spacious and comfortable. There is also a large public bath and an open-air bath, and Matsushima Onsen is a relatively new natural hot spring that was mined after 2000, and the bath has two temperature levels (there is also a sauna, but due to various circumstances, currently on hiatus). This time we arrived in Sendai late at night on the Shinkansen, so it was only a breakfast plan, but the breakfast buffet has a wide variety of Japanese and Western dishes, and some of the tables are partitioned so you can relax without worrying about your surroundings. good. Even though I checked in late at night, they kindly waited on me, such as issuing coupons, and the free drink bar for guests was open in the lobby until around 21:00, which was very helpful. Hotels around Sendai Station are particularly expensive these days, so I felt that it was the best hotel for business purposes besides sightseeing because it was possible to stay at a reasonable price with a large communal bath and dinner and breakfast.
