Hotels With Wifi in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

Pros: 1. The location is super convenient, right next to the bus terminal and a shopping street, easy to find along the road. 2. The room layout is incredibly well-designed. It has high ceilings, a perfectly square shape, and the bed is against the wall, facing a large, openable window. There's a good distance from the building opposite, making for excellent space planning. Anyone who frequently stays in Japanese hotels will understand what I mean – this is a big plus! 3. The hotel clearly follows traditional hotel procedures, which are very detailed. The staff provided service with a smile, and there was a local Japanese staff member who, despite speaking broken Mandarin, genuinely tried to offer Chinese service, which was really impressive. 4. The room was very clean, free of any odd smells or noise, and the bedding was super comfortable. I finally got a good night's sleep on my last night in Kumamoto. Cons: 1. I have to complain about the washbasin; it's too small. It's difficult for anyone with a lot of cosmetics to spread them out, and items tend to fall off easily. Initially, looking at the hotel pictures and the lobby, I thought it was an old hotel and didn't have high expectations, especially thinking a small room might not be great. But it turned out to be really good! I had stayed at another hotel previously, and this one is significantly better by comparison. I'll definitely stay here again next time.

The hotel is very new with a modern decor. The soundproofing is excellent, and even the drawers, wardrobe doors, and shower door have soft-close mechanisms, making them very quiet. The public bath is a moderate size and has all the necessary facilities. The cleaning staff are diligent, so everything is quite clean. The hotel is located right above Kumamoto Station, making it incredibly convenient for taking the JR. Right outside the hotel are the A and B line tram stops, providing direct access to major tourist attractions and shopping streets. Additionally, floors 1 to 7 of the same building house a large shopping mall, including a Can Do 100-yen store, which is fantastic for inexpensive household goods and simple kitchenware. There's also a Big Camera in the mall. However, it's worth noting that most department stores close at 8 PM, with only some restaurants on the 6th and 7th floors open until 10 PM.

Pros: 1. Great location! It's a convenient 5-10 minute walk from Kumamoto Bus Terminal (easily accessible by bus from Fukuoka Airport), right in the commercial district. No worries about coming back late after shopping. 2. The hotel is very new and spotlessly clean. There wasn't a single dirty spot or any unpleasant odors. The hygiene was exceptional. 3. On the first floor, there's a self-service station for amenities and maps. On the middle floors, you'll find pajamas and a microwave. 4. The staff were fantastic! One gentleman spoke Chinese and proactively offered help in Chinese, and all the other staff members were incredibly nice. Cons: 1. This is truly hard to explain, but I didn't sleep a wink for both nights of my stay. The hotel allows windows to be opened, so the temperature was good, but it got stuffy and hot in the middle of the night. The duvet was incredibly non-breathable, feeling like it was made of a poor quality material. My arms even broke out in a rash, possibly an allergic reaction. The pillow was also uncomfortable. 2. The room type I was given overlooked a construction site, and it was incredibly noisy. Overall, it was a very strange stay. The hotel is new, and the staff are great, yet I somehow couldn't sleep for two nights. I'm still feeling groggy and can't pinpoint why it didn't work for me. However, I still highly recommend the hotel.

Booked this hotel last minute and it was surprisingly cheap, definitely worth the price. The only downside is there's no parking. I wasn't feeling well that day and just parked across the street, which ended up costing me 1300 JPY for 12 hours. Turns out, if I had looked around a bit more, there were plenty of spots nearby for 500-600 JPY for the same duration.

Great location. The hotel is right in the middle of major area. The hotel pays part of the parking fee at nearby lot. Many famous restaurants close to the hotel. The common area setup real nice. Free soft-drink, coffee, coco. The water pressure in the shower is great.

Just a three-minute walk from Kumamoto Station, the location is excellent. The hotel seems to be an older one that's been renovated. It's been a long time since I've stayed in a room that uses a physical key! The room size isn't small for Japan, and the bed is huge. Overall, the facilities are very new. I'll definitely choose to stay here again next time I'm in Kumamoto.

Service: English service was available, making communication smooth and clear. The front desk staff were professional. Environment: The location is excellent. There's a bus stop right downstairs, it's easy to hail a taxi, and there are supermarkets, Kumamoto souvenir shops, restaurants, and convenience stores nearby – very convenient. There's also a pedestrian street in the vicinity, and the room offers a view of Kumamoto Castle. Hygiene: Overall, it was good. Even when 'Do Not Disturb' was selected, fresh towels were still left hanging on the door. However, we found a pair of slippers under the bed that weren't ours, likely left by a previous guest.

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.

Hotel is in a pretty good location. Close to kumamoto JR station by Tram and walkable distance to the sakuramachi bus terminal/mall (5min). Serviable by both red and blue tram lines as well. Room is slightly bigger than the usual japanese business hotel. Pricewise was really affordable as well ($40+ sgd/night 1 pax). The hotel provides room cleaning for concurrent 3 days stay I believe (no daily cleaning, only change of towels), but you will need to pass the keycard/key tothe front desk on the day of the cleaning. And then retrieve the key back when come back to the hotel after the cleaning. No microwave in room, you need to go down to the lobby to use the only microwave in the hotel. Otherwise the hotel is a cheap and good stay.

This Japanese onsen hotel met all my expectations. Every day after coming back, I could enjoy a hot spring bath. Inside, there's one hot and one cold bath, plus a sauna. Outside, there's an open-air hot spring. After bathing, you can choose from four types of ice cream and read Japanese manga for free. You can also pay for a massage. For the late-night snack from 9:30 PM to 11:00 PM, they offer matcha and hot chocolate, along with a vegetarian ramen that comes with a quarter-egg. Overall, I looked forward to returning to the hotel every day after my excursions. I'll definitely stay here again next time.
