Hot Springs Hotels in Kagoshima

"Perfect for a relaxing Kagoshima getaway. The shuttle service is super convenient for exploring the city, and combined with a one-day transport pass, a two-night stay is just right. The hotel's on-site hot springs are also very comfortable, and you can even catch the sunrise in the morning!"

"Wonderful stay. Super delicious and wide spread of food for breakfast. The hotel has several restaurants and cafes that you do not need to venture out to eat. The souvenir shop is located beside Osen, do not miss it. Do step out of the area outside breakfast restaurant to see the full view of sakurajima, with sunrise view, though you may want to walk to the nearby lookout at the park. But I think the view from hotel is good. The bakery sells delicious bread, soft and fresh. Shuttle bus is available at both lobby, one near main entrance and one near the Italian restaurant at level one. There is a post box at the level one entrance too, you can send postcards there!"

"The room is a tatami room. Those who have not experienced it can try it. However, the room I stayed in had a strong smell. The room was big enough, but the worst thing was that the toilet was too smelly. It should be the smell from the sink outside."

"I often travel to Japan, and Dormy Inn rooms always seem to be in high demand. The 20+ sqm twin rooms, perfect for two adults and one child, are usually impossible to book. So, when I saw this room type available in Kagoshima, I decided to book it for one night. Overall, my experience fell short of expectations. Unfortunately, neither adult could enjoy the onsen (hot springs) for personal reasons, which is arguably the hotel's main highlight – a real shame. The room itself was a bit small, and while cleanliness was decent, the toilet emitted a persistent garlic-like odor. On the positive side, the dining options were excellent. Breakfast featured Kagoshima's special black pork shabu-shabu and a type of sashimi. Complimentary ice cream and Yakult were available all day in the lounge on the hot spring floor, and free soy sauce ramen was served after 9:30 PM. Given these amenities, I'd say it's best suited for adults who plan to fully utilize the onsen facilities. What truly made the stay less than ideal wasn't just my inability to use the onsen. More significantly, during check-in, the front desk informed me that my reservation did not include a 3-year-old child, resulting in an additional charge for the child's accommodation and meals. This wasn't the hotel's fault, and honestly, I'm not sure who to blame. I distinctly remember booking for two adults and one child, so I'm puzzled about what went wrong in the process. Perhaps Dormy Inn and I simply weren't a good match this time. I'm well aware that Japanese hotels charge per person, so I always meticulously enter the correct number of guests and compare prices across different platforms when booking in Japan. Having visited Japan over a dozen times, this was the first instance where I was charged extra at check-in due to a discrepancy in the number of guests. I was quite surprised when informed about the booking error. Checking my Trip.com confirmation on my phone at the front desk, I saw it indeed only listed two adults. I can only fault myself for never reviewing the confirmation after booking; moving forward, I'll be sure to check them carefully to catch and correct any issues promptly. After reporting this to Trip.com customer service, they responded quickly and later reimbursed me half of the additional cost. During this trip, both hotels I booked through Trip.com had unexpected additional charges at check-in. Besides the Dormy Inn incident, another hotel in Fukuoka charged a separate accommodation tax. Interestingly, I booked a different hotel in Fukuoka on another platform, and its price already included this tax, so I didn't pay anything extra upon arrival. Moving forward, when booking hotels in Japan, I'll have to carefully consider if the lowest price offered on certain platforms might be due to hidden fees."

"The hotel offers a shuttle service, which makes getting around very convenient. Right outside the hotel, there's a tram stop that takes you to the pier, where you can catch a boat to Sakurajima for sightseeing. The hotel's breakfast is quite substantial, with plenty of fruit, and the golden kiwi was especially sweet. All the staff were attentive and thoughtful. The hotel also has a free gym, and right next door is a hot spring ♨️ where you can enjoy a full soak or a foot bath; the spa services, however, are paid. Overall, everything was excellent. I'll definitely stay here again on my next visit. I hope for friendship between China and Japan and world peace 🤝🏻"

"This is a hotel with history. That is, old. There is a slight smell when you first enter the room, but you can ventilate by opening the window. It is very attractive that parking is free at a hotel located downtown, and since there were not many guests, we were able to rent out the large public bathhouse. The sauna was not operating. The view from the large bath located on the top floor is also quite nice. The hot spring water quality is very good."

"親子3人で旅行に行きました。3人1部屋だとベッドが大小１つづつの２つのことが多いけどこちらのホテルはちゃんと３つあり、まずそこから感動しました。 Ｌ字のお部屋でテーブルがあるところと、ベッドのところにそれぞれテレビもありそれも良かったです。 駅からも近かったし、2階に温泉もあり小さい露天風呂ぽいのもありました。お風呂の化粧台は４つしかなかったので、人が混む時間だとお部屋で髪の毛乾かすことになると思います。 素泊まりプランだったけど当日の朝にフロントに連絡した朝ご飯を1人1,600円でつけてもらえました。 ビュッフェの残り時間がなくてバタバタになってしまったけど、時間があまりないので欲しいものはたくさん取られて下さいと優しく教えて下さいましたので、テーブルに持ってきた後は食事をゆっくり頂くことができました。ホテルの人がみんな優しくてとても良かったです。 お部屋のお風呂は使わなかったけど浴槽もしっかり大きめで良かったです。"

"It's a 10-15 minute car ride near the dock. If you know the bus time in advance, you go in and rest after your trip. It's a quiet and healing place. The owner of the hotel is so friendly and kind And the electric bike rental is 6,000 won an hour. It was cheaper than in front of the port. For the ducks, they come to Sakurajima Island early and take a bus to see. I think it would be nice to come into the hotel and look around the hotel by rental bicycles. The hot springs were older than I thought, so I just did. The smell of sulfur was enormous. Overall, it's a great place to rest quietly !! There is nothing nearby, so if you need anything, please buy it at the convenience store near the marina ~"

"The room was very relaxing and I feel that the quality of the hot springs was also effective for skin roughness. I spent a little hurry, but I really wanted to spend more time in the room while looking at the ferry. The clothes in the hall were also prepared for each size of the original 々 room, but I felt very kind to prepare a small size for my 々 small parents and children. Even if you stay without meals, there is an A-corp nearby, so it is quite easy to get food from Kagoshima such as Campach (sashimi). I bought Chiran tea here as a souvenir. The only thing that's really unfortunate is the laundry facilities. Both washing machines and dryers are cheap at 100 yen (payment at the hot spring reception), but they are very ordinary home appliances, and the dryer is certainly 200 yen and does not dry even if it turns for nearly an hour. It is said that it should not be turned for more than an hour, and it can't be helped by raising it with half drying ... It doesn't matter if the price is high, so I hope you will consider introducing a washing dryer for commercial use. But other than that, I really really liked it. I will definitely go to stay again."

"Very good hotel and we got a good deal to stay. The male staff from front desk explained to us on all the nitty gritty, in a typical Japanese polite way. Onsen is at 4 floors and it is typical Japanese Onsen. There are washing and drying facilities on the 4th floor which is budget friendly, where we wash our laundry. The hotel however is away from the town center which might be inconvenient for some travellers that wan to walk around."
