We stayed in Sendai for 24 days, all of them at the Chisun. It was wonderful. We have never traveled for that long of a period ever and the staff and management at that hotel were so warm and gracious, we felt is was like a home away from home. The location to Sendai couldn't be better. 4 Minutes to the Central station by walking. Probably a 100 places to eat within a 5-10 minute walk. The morning breakfast buffet was a great meal for the price. They are not big luxurious rooms with a lot of space to sit around, but for sleeping, and doing work at desk, it was the best we found. Since most of our time was outside of the room except for sleeping and bathing, I would not even consider staying ANYWHERE ELSE but the Chisun. If I stay in another city that has a Chisun, I will stay there too.
