The hotel is a little dated and could use some updates. However, it's hard to complain when you have a stunning castle view right outside your window. The beautiful scenery made the stay very enjoyable and memorable.

Loved the location of this hotel. Beautiful view of the castle. We were within walking distance of downtown but a little off the main street so it was a bit quieter. The hotel had a really nice traditional breakfast every morning. The staff was super helpful and polite. Very very helpful in finding things around Kumamoto. I really enjoyed my time in Kumamoto. Thank you KKR.

castle-view room was spectacular.

My family had a great stay in a castle-view room. It was spectacular! The location cannot get better, with major malls and restaurants less than 700 meters away. The staff was very courteous. What a refreshing change from all these unattended/automated hotels.

Really nice place in front of Kumamoto castle. However it's about 5-8min walk from convenience store and the path is a bit dark at night, if you're alone should consider this. Apart from that, incredible, spacious and nice place

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.

This hotel is right next to the Kumamoto castle and provides a great view. There is a bus station right in front and it is a short walk to the street car and entrance to the castle and drinking and eating establishments in town. Hotel has convenient, east to use laundry machines so we caught up with some of our laundry. Rooms wete nice and provided a good view. The breakfast buffet is excellent.

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.

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.

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.

There was ample parking and very easy to get to and from different locations around Kyushu. Bathrooms in the rooms are a little on the older side but still work just fine.

A Room With An Outstanding View

It was a very pleasant stay and the view was amazing. From the hotel room, we had a picture-perfect view of Kumamoto Castle. That was a key highlight. The room was comfortable, but the hotel felt too big and formal for the type of travel I was doing. I felt a little out of place, as it is a very elegant event/banquet hotel (clearly designed to host weddings). Nonetheless, it was clean, comfortable, quiet, beautifully located right across the street from the castle, and the staff were exceptionally professional, efficient, and courteous. I parked a car, and the daily rate was reasonable. I would gladly stay at this hotel again.

Good location

We booked a twin room facing the castle. Unfortunately due to the earthquake in 2016, parts of the castle were destroyed so the castle is undergoing repair works and will continue to be for some time. So the castle view is not as per photos on the website.

Nonetheless the hotel is right in front of a road that leads up to the castle ground and it was a good morning walk up the slope. The hotel is also relatively near the shopping street.

During our stay, we didn’t drive but travel around the city sightseeing spots by foot and tram. The hotel is located at a quite place, about 15mins walk away from the main shopping streets.

The staffs at the reception are nice and helpful.
