Miyagi Sendai City
A natural rock bath cradled by the murmur of the Hirose River, and a ceramic urn cold plunge fed with a constant flow of groundwater
Oedo Onsen Monogatari Premium Sendai Sakunami is an onsen hotel in Sendai, Miyagi Prefecture. Its signature is a natural rock bath along the Hirose River that still carries the look of the days when the onsen first opened. With the murmur of the river close at hand, you can bathe in an atmosphere full of charm, as if at one with the nature around you. After working up a sweat in the sauna added in the renovation, cool down in a one-person ceramic urn cold plunge filled with Sakunami’s mellow groundwater. The colorless, clear chloride spring, gentle on the skin, warms the body to the core and leads you into deep relaxation. After bathing, spend a luxurious moment in the premium lounge with a complimentary drink in hand.

A natural rock bath full of charm facing the Hirose River, strongly preserving the look of the days when the onsen first opened. In the four baths that spread out at the bottom of a flight of stairs, you can feel the murmur of the river and the glitter on its surface up close and bathe in rustic surroundings, as if at one with nature. The colorless, clear chloride spring, gentle on the skin, softly eases the fatigue of body and mind.

A semi-open-air space where wide-open windows let you take in the outside air to the full. From a fresh early afternoon with sunlight streaming in to a still night spent listening to the rustle of the trees, you can soak unhurriedly in the onsen while watching the face of nature change with the hours, a moment of pure bliss.

An indoor bath whose large windows frame the rich nature of Sakunami Onsen like a painting. It carries a calm atmosphere found only here, at an inn that inherits the tradition of the ryokan with the longest history in Sakunami Onsen. While admiring the scenery of each season, you can take your time savoring the renowned waters, which are highly effective at keeping the body warm.

A sauna room where you can give yourself over to quietly flowing time and sweat at an unhurried pace. In a clean space wrapped in the warmth of wood, you can step away from the bustle of daily life and turn inward. Once thoroughly warmed, the cold plunge is just steps away, making it easy to enjoy a pleasant round of alternating hot and cold.

A one-person ceramic urn cold plunge filled with mellow groundwater nurtured by Sakunami’s rich nature. Refreshing natural water gently envelops a body flushed from the sauna. In a private space all your own, you can savor the luxury of cooling down with your whole body immersed in fresh water.
