A thermal sensation estimation device includes an acquirer, a clothing amount estimator, a heat loss amount estimator and a thermal sensation estimator. The acquirer acquires information about a surface temperature of a surface region in a part of clothing of a user. The clothing amount estimator estimates a clothing amount at a clothed portion, the clothed portion being a part of a body of the user, covered with the surface region. The heat loss amount estimator estimates, based on at least the information about the surface temperature and the clothing amount, a heat loss amount lost from the user's body. The thermal sensation estimator estimates thermal sensation of the user based on the heat loss amount.
