I bet people say both, but all my dictionaries have さんがい.
さん‐がい【三階】 「さんかい」とも
That's what the online Daijisen has to say about 'sankai'.
This is the first time for me to learn about 'sangai',
albeit to my shame.
In my day, oh so long ago, that's what you would hear in a department
store elevator.
The department store elevators in Nagoya still say さんがい ― at least the last few I've ridden on. I thought I was just mishearing さんかい. Hm, now I'll have to see how my friends say it.
