Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

I’m not sure why this hotel attracts so many positive reviews, as it’s not very good. The double rooms are small and poorly designed, with much of the space being wasted by a large table. The first room I was assigned was badly affected by noise from the crossing below. I complained and was moved to a room facing a wall and a large number of air conditioning units. Cleaning standards are poor, with the quilt smelling of a previous occupant’s tiger balm. The breakfast was disappointing, as there were only a small range of items available. The only things going for this hotel are its very central location and the helpful reception staff.

There isn't Michelin-star restaurant at this hotel, but you will find good bargain. The best attraction for our family is to dive into free-of-charge coffee. I am not talking about instant coffee packages. At this hotel, you can go to lobby to get as many drip coffee bags as you want to drink. So warm.

I’ve stayed here for a short business trip. I was looking forward to stay here for a lot of good reviews but I found someone’s hair ross in both-room when I try to take a shower. Richmond should be taken care of room clean.

Recently spent 2 nights here and very happy with our stay. Location :- About 8 mins walk from Sendai Station. Restaurants all around the hotel and a Aeon supermarket nearby. Room :- Clean and size is just nice. Some toilet amenities will be offered when you check-in. Small fridge and a kettle provided. B’fast :- Included in the room rate so not sure how much is it but personally it is good enough. Freshly baked bread (4 selections) pre-packed salad, cereal, hot soup, hard boiled egg,...all western style offerings.

I had a great stay at the Richmond Hotel Premier in Sendai in December 2018. I was only able to stay for one night, but it was a treat to myself. The staff were excellent and I had no problems with check-in or check-out. I was able to purchase a box from the hotel in order to have some of my shopping sent directly to my home. The staff were also kind enough to lend me a roll of tape to seal the box as well. The next morning, the front desk clerk assisted me in sending my box by takkyubin (courier) to my home. After check in, I took advantage of the free drinks and ice cream in the lobby. It was nice to be able to sit and relax for a few minutes before heading out to the shops again. My room was very nice. The bed was comfortable and there was a plug in the bedhead. I liked the understated decor and it was very quiet as I was at the end of a hallway. I had breakfast in the morning which was apparently included in my room charge. It was underwhelming, as the salad and fruit were prepacked. The pastries and breads were good and also fresh, they were very nice. I was disappointed that the only eggs on offer were hard boiled so I passed on them. That said, having the breakfast at no charge was a rather nice bonus and kept me going until I had a late lunch. I was able to leave my bags at the hotel both before check-in and after check-out before I caught my bus to my city, so I was able to do quite a bit of running around the city! I often stay at the Richmond Hotel Premier when I am in Sendai as a little treat to myself. It's an affordable luxury for myself and I look forward to my next visit.

Good price as well. I would not come back for two reasons. 1. The breakfast is too simple. No rice or no proper dishes. 2. noisy from the street was too big. I could not have good sleep. It was clean. Staffs were friendly.

The Hotel is sited almost next to Sendai JR Station, very convenient. The staff are very nice and helpful. Rooms are clean and beds are comfortable. The breakfast is very tasteful, I stayed for eight nights and didn't find the breakfast boring at all. The canteen can be used for chatting and gathering by hotel guests from 12:00-23:00. Of course the guests enjoy very much free drinks and ice cream in the canteen.

The hotel is extremely well located, close to the train and subway stations but also in the center of Sendai. There are plenty of excellent restaurants and coffee shops nearby making the location of the hotel central and convenient. The staff at the reception are friendly and very helpful. The room is decent for Japanese business hotel standards, well-equipped and with lots of power sockets. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom had a bathtub which is excellent. The hotel is also quiet. The breakfast could have a bit more healthy offering, but the pastries were really good. This is an hotel that I recommend for people like me that visited Sendai due to a business trip.

Modern spacious, business-type hotel with nice sculptures in the elevator lobby entrance. Simple but tasty breakfast, efficient & helpful reception if you arrive before check-in, and perfect location for jumping on the circulating tour bus or train to nearby temples, coast, etc. Overlooks tree-shaded streets with traffic and pedestrian crosswalk beeping that stops at night.
