Hotels With Breakfast in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

Location-wise: It's relatively close to the city center, about 1-1.5km from Shimotori Shopping Street and Kumamoto Castle, making it walkable for a city stroll. It's a bit far from Kumamoto Station, not suitable for walking, but you can take the Kumamoto City Tram A Line to and from the station, which takes about 12 minutes. Based on my personal stay this time, the hotel service was friendly. One of the front desk staff members was very diligent in explaining the check-in process in Chinese, which I really appreciated! The hotel offers self-service toiletries on the first floor. The room was clean and quiet. The Standard Double Room was indeed quite small, but we managed to fit one large and one small suitcase. Two complimentary bottles of mineral water were provided. Breakfast was good and available for purchase.

My family had a wonderful stay at this hotel. It is conveniently located on the upper floors of AMU Plaza, right next to Kumamoto Station, with a dedicated elevator on the ground floor that takes you directly to the lobby. The rooms are clean and comfortable, and the staff are consistently friendly and polite. The only minor downside is that the breakfast selection is a little limited. That said, the hotel’s excellent location more than makes up for it, as there are plenty of cafés and restaurants just steps away in and around AMU Plaza.

Convenient location! Need to walk about 5-10mins from the tram stop but it’s very bearable in Oct as the weather was cooling. Room is not very big - standard Japanese hotel but it has everything needed. Microwave is shared at the hotel lobby and they have tea and snacks at level 2 of the hotel.

This hotel completely eliminated my travel anxiety! The airport shuttle bus drops you off right downstairs, so I didn't have to lug my luggage an extra step – super convenient for tourists. There's a shopping mall right below, so I could grab food whenever I wanted, and a supermarket made it easy to pick up snacks and drinks for the room. Kumamoto Castle and Suizenji Jojuen Garden are both within walking distance, and right across the street is the Shimotori Shopping Street, a central arcade district in Kumamoto with pharmacies, clothing stores, and dessert shops galore. It was so easy and pleasant to shop and eat, and perfect for finding souvenirs. The hotel room was spacious and clean, and the bedding was soft and comfortable, guaranteeing a good night's sleep after a long day. The breakfast had a great variety of both Japanese and Western options, with fresh ingredients and delicious flavors. Overall, it's excellent value for money. I'll definitely choose this hotel again next time I'm in Kumamoto!

The hotel facilities are a bit old, so if you're sensitive about hygiene, you might want to reconsider. It feels like they do a thorough cleaning, but some of the equipment is dated, and there are signs of wear and tear that can't be completely scrubbed away. Our family of three stayed here; it had three beds and a good amount of space. There's also a coin-operated laundry facility within the hotel. The best part about this hotel is definitely the breakfast – a rich variety of options and excellent value. The location is perfect for shopping, with Shimotori Shopping Street just a 3-5 minute walk away. At the entrance of the shopping street, there's an Isomaru Suisan (a chain seafood restaurant) that serves fantastic eel rice. You can order a whole eel and add rice separately for more eel, or just get the regular eel rice bowl, which is a bit cheaper. Considering how great the breakfast is, this hotel offers really good value for money. I would personally recommend it.

The hotel employees all of them were showed a good attitude and communication was no problem for foreigners. The location is great — it’s close to Kumamoto Castle, and there’s a shopping mall just about a 10-minute walk away. I made a reservation for a triple room for two nights. The sofa bed was uncomfortable, and the air conditioner could not adjust the airflow direction, which caused us to catch a cold. One more thing, the room key had to be returned and kept at the counter whenever we went out for the day.

This is a fantastic resort! With the dinner and breakfast package, you practically don't need to leave the hotel for meals. The resort offers a wide range of entertainment facilities, including a swimming pool and a mini lazy river. The onsen (hot springs) are also excellent, with each bath providing a different scenic view. It's conveniently located about 1 km (a 15-minute walk) from Aso Station, making it very easy to get to the volcano crater.

This hotel is, without a doubt, the most satisfying I've stayed at during my solo trips to Japan over the past few years! 👍5☆☆☆☆☆ 1. The hotel is conveniently located right next to Kumamoto Station, just a 3-4 minute walk to the left after exiting (Photo 3). The rooms are spacious, and the bathrooms are large. They provide complimentary bottled water. It's quiet at night. Photos 5 & 6 show the view from room 714. The front desk staff are patient, professional, and attentive. 👍 2. There are many dining options inside the train station, making meals very convenient. 3. There are bus and tram stops right outside the hotel. You can use IC credit cards (UnionPay, VISA) and Alipay directly on all Kumamoto city buses and trams for payment, which is incredibly convenient! We walked to Kumamoto Castle, stopping at Kitaoka Shrine ⛩ along the way. We took Tram Line A back. It's very close to Kumamoto Castle and the city center. 4. The next morning, we headed to Mount Aso. We bought tickets to Aso Station at Kumamoto Station, and there were several train times to choose from. Very convenient! If you're planning a city walk in Kumamoto and a visit to Mount Aso, I highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel just opened in August this year, the well-known chain hotel, every time I come to Japan, I find a way to live once. I feel good to take off my shoes and enter the hotel. The open-air bathing pool is a bit small. The room is too new and can also detect a little decoration. The taste, overall is still very satisfactory!

Great stay at this clean, conveniently located hotel. It’s right inside a covered shopping arcade that connects to many food options, and also just across the street from the tram stop and a large mall housing the bus terminal. Room was comfortable and of a good size. Free drinks are available at a quiet lounge area for guests, and there’s also a nice public bath to relax at too. Would recommend.
