Lovely hotel with castle views
Wonderful hotel with views of Kumamoto Castle. However, the window in our room didn’t provide as good a view of the castle as we had expected. Hotel is lovely and the staff is wonderful.

Well located and comfortable hotel in Kumamoto
We stayed for 2 nights in Kumamoto. The hotel is located conveniently within a short distance to the castle and near to shops and eateries.
Parking is available on site and you have to leave your car keys with the hotel and exchange with a parking slip whenever you need to retrieve the car.
It seems more of a businesss hotel and there was also a wedding reception on one of the days we were there.
We had a great experience in Kumamoto and honestly there was nothing we could fault with the hotel.

Good location. Central to most attractions being close to the castle. We only spent a night in kumamoto but felt that this hotel was good value. Parking in front of the hotel was a bit tight depending on the spots available. They do have another parking area though. Hotel was clean and as described in the listing. Overall, a good stay.

The entire building is old and was a reminiscence of early 2000 in decor. However the staff is very attentive and welcoming.
