Sendai, the biggest city in northeast Japan, is filled with reasonably priced hotels that could make a great base for exploring the Tohoku region. We here at JAPANiCAN.com have picked out a few of the hotels that have been highly rated by our customers, as well as a few that we think will become customer favorites, and listed them below. We went along and stayed in some of the hotels, and have included some of our first-hand observations here, too.

Whether it's from the bullet train traveling between Tokyo and Kyoto, from Hakone's cable cars and cruise ships, or simply from a Tokyo skyscraper on an exceptionally clear day, catching a glimpse of Mt. Fuji never fails to inspire. Even better then is spending an entire weekend with Mt. Fuji as your backdrop, as I did when I stayed at Sunnide Resort in Kawaguchiko, Yamanashi Prefecture.
