Hotels near "Portrait of a Shout" Monument, Kagoshima

For tourists, you will like the hotel. It’s centrally-located and reasonably priced. But for me, this is my 2nd Richmond Hotel this week, and like Yokohama four days ago, the check in experience at the Kagoshima Richmond Kinseicho was just as bad. I arrived at the hotel at 1 and asked in Japanese for them to hold my bag until checkin. No problem and I left. I came back about 3:30 to check in. I claimed my bag and gave my name in Japanese. She found my reservation then immediately asked for my passport. I simply said “No”. She looked at me like I didn’t hear her then went to the back room to get another woman who I guess can speak English. Before the second one could say anything I explained in Japanese that I am not a tourist and if she would just check my reservation on the computer in front of her she would have known that. It is insulting to ask permanent residents (I am one.) for identification when checking in, especially our passport, which we do not carry around inside Japan (any more than a Japanese person would traveling Japan). The law specifies we are to be checked in as residents just as Japanese people are. And this, again, is the 2nd time this week I have explained the Japanese hotel law to Richmond hotel staff who should know better. And when this happens, no matter how good your hotel is the stay will not be pleasant because I won’t forget the insult. I’m speaking to you in Japanese and you still assume I am a tourist? How many fluent middle-aged white guys do you see in a year who are tourists? Come on Richmond, use some common sense and stop lumping residents and tourists in the same pile. It’s disrespectful to those of us for whom Japan is home. We are not the same as tourists. I like Richmond Hotels, but I have plenty of hotel choices available to me, and have stayed at Richmond at least four times this past year. Until you stop othering foreign residents as the same as visiting tourists I won’t be staying at this Richmond or any other going forward.

The hotel is very good, clean and hygienic. Opposite the hotel is 711 and Lawson, and there is a freshly made bento. The hotel breakfast and lunch are very good! There is a bus terminal in Kamoike Port 300 meters away, and there are many taxis (the hotel can help call, and the taxi to the city center is 2200 yen). The balcony can watch the sunrise and sunset of Sakurajima. There were 2 earthquakes, and the table lamp shook violently. I looked at the 6th magnitude. At 11 o'clock in the evening, the streets were full of people! After watching, I went to sleep

The public bath uses Fine Ten Water, and those with sensitive skin will feel the effects immediately. I also found Refa's shower head to be very comfortable to use, probably because the water pressure was higher than what I use at home. Use the hair dryer and your styling will look better than usual. Also, the room was equipped with a clothes deodorizer, and I was curious about this home appliance, so I was glad I was able to try it out. People who go to yakiniku etc. for dinner will probably find it very popular. The rooms are comfortable, but the public bath is recommended.

It is a business hotel located in the downtown Tenmonkan in Minami Kyushu, but it was only called ”Rem”, and I was able to sleep well as rarely for me to sleep until I was woken up by the alarm clock. The city trams and buses are running on the road right in front of me, but I didn't care about the noise at all. １ I had breakfast at the talis in the building because it was breakfast for the night, but it was quite well organized and substantial. I was able to choose from hot dog pancake toast.

The rooms are not very spacious. There is a simple desk, but it is a chair without a backrest. There is a small refrigerator, but it is not very good at cooling drinks, so I don't think it will be useful in the summer. I stayed here on a business trip, so it is fine if you only use it to sleep.

There has air conditioner which was cool enough , good! only the drawback is some far away to take 20 minutes to JR station but very near the walking street. Bath room a bit of narrow. Appreciated even though medium size hotel but it has car packing lot itself ( located on the hotel's back street with staff to assist you ), so great indeed !

It locates near the bus terminal and Kagoshima Chuo Station, there is a Lawson at G/F. Airport bus can stop at the entrance of the hotel. It is very convenient for travelers. The room is cozy but not very spacious, though it is a good choice for short stay for several nights.

Convenient location, especially if you arrive in Kagoshima by JR or the Shinkansen - obviously, as this is a JR Kyushu Hotel. The facilities were well furnished, and the breakfast from the restaurant was also nice. Comfortable stay overall - I'll certainly stay here again if I come to Kagoshima next time!

I stayed in an ocean view twin room on the 5th floor for one night from June 10th (Saturday). Unfortunately, due to the rain, we were unable to do the ocean SUP that we had planned. This hotel, Sekisui House, is located next to a roadside station and has been opened all over the country for the purpose of revitalizing and interacting with local communities, and Marriott is responsible for its operation. It is a complete ”hotel specializing in lodging,” and meals and activities are provided at nearby local facilities. As it is run by Marriott, the rooms were clean and functionally laid out, and the beds were extremely comfortable. Also, the view of Kinko Bay from the room was wonderful, and there was a beautiful beach right in front of me, so I thought it was a perfect location for swimming in the summer. However, there is no bathtub, and there are no hot spring facilities at the adjacent roadside station, so as a Japanese person who prefers bathtubs, I feel a little unsatisfied. The multipurpose lounge on the first floor was very calm, well-designed, and very comfortable. Here, they provided free services such as coffee and miso soup, as well as a microwave and toaster, all of which were of good quality. It can be made of paper, so I think it will be easier to use if you have cutlery such as plates, spoons, and chopsticks. There's also a coin laundry and a small market space, which I felt was put into place with a lot of thought. I think the issue is the negative relationship between the local community and the hotel. I thought that the area would automatically be revitalized by the establishment of a hotel, and I felt that hotels were leaving all aspects of the area to the area, and there was not much cooperation between them. We also hold events that bring together the hotel and the local community. We felt that there was a need for both parties to work together, such as creating new ways to highlight the best aspects of the area to guests.

It is attracted to the appearance that is arranged in the vast site along the sea, and it is booked from HP. Since it was an evening check-in, the lobby was crowded and there was a line, but there was tea and water on the server and I was very thirsty, so I was saved by the waiting time for the guide. The palace has a calm atmosphere like an inn from the corridor. The room you entered is luxurious, as rumors say, the room is large enough, and the ocean view spreading through the pine forest from the window is even in the cloudy sky when you stay. It is a sufficiently satisfying view and you can go out to the veranda and look at it. (However, please note that the balcony was about to fall when the position of the balcony was low.) The fresh flowers of Casablanca displayed between the floors look nice and nice, but they have a strong scent, so My husband was not good at Japanese style rooms. (I thought I would lower it, but I heard that I didn't have to do that much.) The indoor bath is more solid than expected, and the lotion of snow skin spirit placed in the wash basin is a very nice service for women. This is Su. I also received a newspaper in the morning. However, it can happen anywhere, but when I was sleeping in bed at night, I heard the sound of children running around on the upper floor and the voice of people gathering and talking loudly in the next room. Fortunately, it was good because it became quiet after 23:00. I don't think you can hear it in the next room if it's a normal voice, but I think it's better for those staying in the future to be careful with each other. The expected bath was close to the palace and the interior was very large, and the temperature was set to be soaked for a long time, but it felt like a public bath rather than a hot spring. By the way, according to my husband, it is wise to refrain from using the men's open-air bath during bright hours. For the dishes, I asked for a black pork shabu-shabu with a cup of Izo Mori. We had a relaxing meal in a corner space that can be used by 8 adults in the digging ceremony. The content is so rich that I can't eat it, and I'm very satisfied with the amount of main pork that I think there will be 2 ～ 3 servings in Tokyo. The next morning's Japanese food was not a buffet, so I was able to relax and relax at the set, and I was able to take out coffee on my way home. The hall was very large and spacious, and although there should be a lot of guests, I was able to spend a relaxing time without feeling cramped. Thanks to you, I was able to stay very comfortably. I would like to visit you when visiting Ibusuki. Thank you for your help.
