Kumamoto hotels near Kumamoto Castle

Pros: Location was great, near to attractions like Kumamoto castle and the shopping areas. Room was good sized by Japanese standards

Cons: Not much to complain about

Pros: Perfect location close to everything.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The room window brings a great view of Kumamoto Castle.p You early her big hotel rooms in Japan no matter how much you spend. The room that I got was huge that could fit three beds. The bathroom could also accommodate a bathtub and separate shower. I don't know if it's a Kumamoto thing that the hotels here offer but rooms. Also note that the bus to the airport is right in front of the hotel.

Cons: The smoking area is closed late night. I wasn't sure where to smoke after 10 as the city doesn't allow citizens to smoke at the street.

Pros: Central location; great breakfast

Pros: Excellent location with plenty of eateries and shopping areas nearby. Walking distance to Kumamoto Castle. Little market place beside the hotel offers interesting snacks and fruits. For those who are driving, there is ample parking available. My family had a pleasant stay and wished that we had stayed there longer. Highly recommended and we would choose to stay there again. P.S. Must eat the tonkatsu at Katsuretsu if you are there. Simply wonderful.

Cons: The wifi network inside the guest room couldn't connect

Cons: bed and pillow a little soft

Pros: Everything near by !

Pros: Super convenient location at a shopping street with lots of dining options nearby.

Cons: The bed was a little soft and bouncy.

Pros: Super Excellent Location, it is right above one popular attraction place. However, due to the narrow streets nearby we missed the hotel place and needed a few more minutes to find the hotel. Rooms were a bit small but this was expected when we book the hotel. Merely the excellent location is sufficient to justify the staying in this hotel.

Cons: None I can recall.

Pros: Very convenient location, good facilities, very clean.

Cons: Bed against the wall!

Pros: Clean, good location

Cons: no parking but we can find a lot of nearby parking

Pros: The check-in machine is good. The passport origami at the reception is a very nice touch and that makes the guests feel very welcomed. Letting guests pick their facial masks and bathing salt is great. The location is great, right in the middle of the city and is adjacent to all key tourist spots and great restaurants that operate 24-hour. Japan hotel rooms are mostly small. You can rarely find a room that can fit 3 beds yet you're still getting space to walk around and place your luggage. This hotel can offer that.

Cons: It was a bit pricey. The ventilation of the smoking room seems not sufficient.

Pros: The location is very near to Tram station and just be in the middle of Shimotori Shopping Street. Walking distance to Kumamoto castle and Kumamon square. Staffs are very nice and helpful.

Pros: Location was very central with paid parking nearby which the staff gave us a map to help us find it. While breakfast was a slightly different format that other places we stayed in Japan it was sufficient and reasonably priced.

Cons: Everything was as expected so nothing.

Pros: They allowed us to check in before their stated check in time

Cons: The ventilation system of toilet was not working There was no free bottle water provided

Pros: the chairs in the room are massaging chairs~

Cons: bar closed at 10PM instead of 11. i couldn't find any notice about it. very few restaurants around the area. recommend to go to restaurant Takeshita, a very traditional ordinary Japanese kitchen~

Pros: All. The bed and pillows are the best! They really care about a good night sleep.

Cons: The TV cabinet is a bit outdated, you can almost feel that they renovate the room but keep the cabinet as is.

Pros: Standard amenities and services for name brand hotel

Cons: Poor location Nothing around hotel ( sight seeing, restaurant, shopping etc )

Pros: Proximity to Kumamoto station Friendly staff

Cons: nothing comes to mind

Pros: Huge king size and comfy bed. Very hard to find such bed size in Japan for such price.

Cons: Everything seems good

Pros: near to kumamoto station, room is big.

Cons: door is not sound proof, can hear people talking at walkway.

Pros: + The hotel is conveniently located within walking distance from/to the JR Kumamoto Station and the Kumamoto Station Tram Stop on the A Line. The tram line made it easy to travel to/from the downtown area for attractions, malls and eateries. However, if preferred, the JR Kumamoto Station has a wide range of eateries + The staff at the Concierge when we first arrived at the hotel (when it was deemed too early to check in) were very helpful: they checked on the opening and closing times of restaurants and attractions without our requesting them to do it + The facilities and amenities in the room were adequate. The shower curtain was effective in that water did not “escape” onto the floor when we showered

Cons: - The (senior?) staff who actually checked us in when we returned to the hotel at the end of the day after a day of sightseeing was not too helpful. In fact, he sounded condescending - We tend to re-configure the rooms which we stay in somewhat, to meet our preferences. We are unhappy that the Housekeeping staff attempted to re-arrange our things which had been left on the table: it required us to do the re-configuration again. (We re-arranged the room to the original layout before we checked out) - It is a pity that the hotel is not totally connected to the JR Kumamoto Station and the Kumamoto Station Tram Stop by a covered/sheltered walkway. When it rains, it is essential to have an umbrella @ This is neither a positive nor a negative comment. It is just an interesting observation. We heard Christmas carols/songs being played right up to Wednesday, 25 December 2019. On Thursday, 26 December 2019, we did not hear any Christmas music. When we checked out from The New Hotel Kumamoto around 10.30 am on Thursday, 26 December 2019, the staff had been hard at work in removing all evidence of Christmas. Does this happen only in certain parts of Japan? Christmas was still very much evident in Kagoshima and Fukuoka-Hakata which we visited after Kumamoto, until Monday, 30 December 2019. Going by the lyrics of the popular “The 12 Days of Christmas” song, there are 12 days of Christmas

Pros: Clean room, wonderful breakfast
