2-Star Hotels in Kagoshima Prefecture, Japan

"I was glad I could book a room with breakfast included at a reasonable price! The room and the entire place were very clean, which was great. It's close to Tenmonkan and the Sakurajima ferry terminal, so I think it's a good location for tourists. The artificial carbonated hot spring was nice, but I wish they would keep the carbonation going until around 11 PM. After sightseeing and eating, it inevitably gets late when you go back to the hotel to prepare for a bath. Also, the door to the public bath has to be closed completely by hand, and since most public bath doors tend to close with a spring, people often left the door half-open one after another, so it might be good to put up a sign on the door asking people to close it completely. The staff and the parking attendant were all very friendly and nice. However, it would be nice if the parking fee was a little cheaper. It would be great if there were a discount for consecutive nights on parking."

"Delightful hotel in the heart of Amami city. All staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful - especially when we had to extend our stay due to Typhoon Dolphin. Rooms are a lovely size, clean and amenities available on the ground floor. There is also a bath house and sauna which is a bonus! If you are a female traveller, be sure to ask front desk for a new code as it changes daily. Highly recommended. We will definitely stay here again when we visit Amamioshima! Thank you for a wonderful stay."

"This is a great place for couples and families to experience traditional Japanese architecture. The owner and his wife put their heart and soul into the B&B, and they're always happy to answer any questions. Snakes can be a problem here in the summer, but don't worry, there are plenty of cats that can fight them off—super cool! There's a direct bus service, but it's infrequent, so be mindful of the times. The onsen at the B&B are becoming less common, but if you're not bothered, you can drive to a nearby traditional hot spring bathhouse for just 150 yen."

"Snacks are so full. It's along the national highway, but I think it's quite quiet. (I don't know if the room near the road is good) It's good because it's close to the interchange of Higashi Kyushu Road. I went to the bowl and the waka for dinner. I recommend it."

"This was my first time staying at this hotel, visiting my aunt. It's been years since I've stayed in Kagoshima (everything about the scenery has changed so much since I was a child...)←It's changed so much in just a few years... I remember this hotel used to be Tokyu Inn... (this was decades ago though...) So...it's a long-established hotel, so some people might be concerned about the small details??? (soundproofing←you can hear people's voices in the hallway a lot, and the usual door opening and closing sounds with the neighbors, and vibrations from above...)←I was alone, so I understand that it was easier to hear sounds... It seems to be well-cleaned, but...the only thing that bothers me is...the black dots in the joints around the bathtub are a bit bothersome ^^; The scenery can be said for Kagoshima city in general, but... It has become so modernized that you can no longer see Sakurajima in its entirety from anywhere like before...it's a little sad...I feel nostalgic thinking that Sakurajima must have been visible diagonally from the window of my room in the past... Unfortunately, the view from the window is similar to that of a business hotel in the city, so I gave it a bad review (-_-;) The staff at the front desk were very friendly and answered my questions kindly, and I felt a warmth from them that is a little different from the business-like attitude of city hotels (^o^) ← Most people in Kagoshima are kind, so if you get lost when sightseeing or where to find a bus stop, please ask the locals around you (not 100% guaranteed though ^^;) I think you'll be happy with the kindness of others (^o^) ※ The photo I posted (a photo of Aeon, almost directly in front of Kagoshima Chuo Station) Do not cross over to the Aeon side, turn your back to Kagoshima Chuo Station and walk along the road on your left for less than 5 minutes ~ There is a tram stop right in front of the hotel (^o^) ※ Within Kagoshima city, you can take a tram or a bus (there are two other bus companies operating buses in addition to the city bus, so even if you are going to the same place, the stop may be the same depending on the bus company. (←We recommend that you check the number before boarding) ※If you are staying for a few days, we recommend purchasing an IC card (regular IC cards cannot be used) Their own IC cards are sold at the bus terminals in Tenmonkan and Kagoshima Chuo Station, so I think it will be easier to get on and off if you charge it and use it~^^; Anyway, Kagoshima city used to be centered on trams... but now it's almost only the line that runs right next to it... buses are the main means of transportation (it's like Kyoto ←Kagoshima doesn't have a subway...JR is the only train other than the tram^^;)"

"There is no washlet or something because the facilities are old."

"Stayed at Inncocosumo during our trip. The hotel is clean, spacious, and easy to check in. Free parking is available which is very convenient. The only downside is the location is a bit far from the station, so having a car is highly recommended. Bathroom and toilet are shared with the common public area. Overall, still a comfortable stay. 9/10 ⭐️"
