Clean, convenient, excellent service. Would recommend. A bit plain, but well worth the money.

Breakfast is excellent for Japanese and the Kumamoto castle’s view from the room and from the cafeteria for breakfast is gorgeous. This hotel is 5 min walk from city hall, shopping/restaurant area and bus and street train stations.

Very good location.

Very good location to visit Kumamoto Castle on foot, and fantastic view of Castle is also available from the room. Major commercial district Ginaza Touri is also located in walking distance.

CHUNG KIT, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staffs were very friendly and helpful, especially the front desk staffs, the older gentleman who is amazing! The castle view from the room is extra bonus! Althougt it feels like a 5 stars hotel in the 80s but it has kept the ground somewhat updated. I really enjoy it and the price is really reasonable. Looking forward to visit other KKR properties.

Overlooking the castle, this was in a great location, ands easy walk to the restaurants of the town. The room was classical and spacious well laid out. It was a short but very comfortable stay. Parking was very easy.

Service was the best!! We lost a luggage key and only realised it 3 days later. Kobayashi-san assisted us swiftly and even arranged delivery to our last hotel thankfully it got to us before we departed Japan. Once again many thanks to Kobayashi-san! The view of Kumamoto Castle was excellent; too bad there is still construction going on to repair the castle after the 2016 earthquake. Even though the hotel is the closest to the castle, you will need to walk all the way to the South Gate to enter. Parking slots are abundant so no worries. There are 3 washing machines and 3 dryers at the laundry room located near reception desk. Beds are comfy. Complimentary water is provided everyday.

8/10 Very good

Small room but the environment nearby is good

The hotel got a manager who is from Hong Kong and can speak fluent English, Cantonese and Japanese who is professional and nice. The hotel is near to くまもとじょう Kumamoto-jō 熊本城. You can just walk for ten seconds and can arrive. The room is smaller than what I expect and see from the pictures. Near the hotel, there are shopping streets and many shops are still open at night time.

Good: Quick check-in and friendly staff. Nice view of castle from room. Bad: Pillows are so flat that I can’t sleep well. TV seems like 2010 condition, remote control buttons are no sensitve and difficult to navigate. Location a bit far from shopping street.
Raymond, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Kumamoto castle is just in front of the hotel. It’s a stunning icon but you can see the scares that that the earthquake destroyed. The hotel is 10-15 mins from midtown and quieter. I was a solo traveler but was lucky enough since they gave me a twin bedroom which is spacious for me. The downside was accessing to the laundry where people need to walk in front of the reception. Also, if you expect western breakfast, it’s a bit limited. Overall, I had a good experience with such professional staff who offered the best and traditional services.
Yaz, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

One thing we love this room is nearby the Kumamoto Castle. The amenities provided was so great. There are 4 coin op washer and dryer so this is very convenient when you have a big family of 5 to wash your clothes. The breakfast is traditional Japanese breakfast on the 4th floor. We love the ASO milk which was very creamy to our taste. There is a good space of parking on this property which is a plus. The have a housekeeping everyday. If you need to send out your heavy luggage, they have Yamato services as well. Staff do not speak English but its doable and they did their best to help us and communicate well. Kumamoto is a nice place to stay and will definitely go back if I have a chance to visit again.

落ち着いた熊本滞在に最適

中心街から少し離れるものの、熊本城目の前の立地で熊本らしさが味わえる。土日祝はホテル目の前の棒庵坂を上れば北口券売所から熊本城にスムーズに入れる。 ホテルスタッフの対応も気持ちよく、部屋も清潔。品のあるホテルだと感じました。
