Wonderful hotel with views of Kumamoto Castle. However, the window in our room didnāt provide as good a view of the castle as we had expected. Hotel is lovely and the staff is wonderful.
We stayed for 2 nights in Kumamoto. The hotel is located conveniently within a short distance to the castle and near to shops and eateries.
Parking is available on site and you have to leave your car keys with the hotel and exchange with a parking slip whenever you need to retrieve the car.
It seems more of a businesss hotel and there was also a wedding reception on one of the days we were there.
We had a great experience in Kumamoto and honestly there was nothing we could fault with the hotel.
Very classy hotel and convenient to walk around downtown Kumamoto. Staffs are very polite, yet friendly and comfortable to stay there. Breakfast was creative to offer local specialty to try. Love the music (smooth jazz) that you can have in the guest room and dining area. Highly recommend to experience class hotel with long history where the emperors stayed in the past.
It was below average room compare to other rooms we stayed in this hotel before. We like the location and view of the Castle but facilities are worn and dated.
