Ryokans in Kesennuma

Huge room! Lovely, lovely onsen. And a breakfast with sooo much delicious food. Go for oyster soup if you have a chance :) Good location with the view over the bay. The building felt slightly dated but in the way of old glory, not entirely passing yet.

The room in traditional style was huge, with beautiful view. The hotel is on the hill, parkin lot is at the foot of the hill, there's an elevator directly to the hotel. They have nice onsen.

The onsen! Included in the hotel fee, but do note that you have to pay a (cheap) onsen tax. Nice, big room and located near good food places. Staff are really friendly and really helpful even though they don't speak very much English (but Google translate suffices). Free shuttle bus service to Kesennuma station (and I think even to Sendai station). The restaurant is pretty good too! (Better than some of the ones near the fish markets)

I loved the views, the location, the onsen, and the friendly staff. The room was large, clean and traditional, very comfortable and quiet.
