JR Kyushu Hotel Kagoshima

Let's start with the pros. This hotel is basically joined to the JR Kyushu Shinkasen / Kagoshimachuo station which is joined to the AMU Plaza shopping mall and it also has a tram stop right outside the mall (Kagoshima-chuo eki mae tram stop). So in terms of location I think this hotel ticks all the boxes. The lady at the front counter who was checking me was very friendly, however, we both had to use a translator to communicate 😂 . I believe that is it for the pros. Moving on to the cons. This hotel is starting to show its age (and not in a good way). The room was small, the bathroom is vintage, it felt dewy and it gave me an allergy attack. The 3 gripes I had: 1) The fix AC near the ceiling was blowing directly onto the bed which was really uncomfortable. I believe this contributed to my allergy flare-up. 2) The bed and the pillow was not very comfortable. I did not sleep well for the couple of nights. Or it could've just been the AC. 3) The hotel didn't offer any bottled waters. I would rather they take away the cheap plastic toothbrush and comb and offer the bottled waters instead.

If you are traveling alone or with one luggage, this place is highly recommended, the rooms is very small. We arrived at 5pm and couldn't find the hotel entrance the first time(do not use Google Map), you can directly enter the hotel from inside of the JR Kagoshima Central Station. The hotel offer bath salts with a pleasant smell. And the breakfast voucher can be used at the buffet restaurant (before 9:30) or at the coffee shop downstairs (if you get up late, you can also use it as a lunch voucher at the coffee shop). There is a window that can be opened, and there are many restaurants to choose nearby.

Cp value is extremely high. The service attitude is so sincere from the staff, there is bath salt provided, i feel 😃happy

Big and comfortable and the hotel is just beside the train station

Right by the train station, very easy to find. we checked in way past the estimated check-in time however, we were welcomed warmly and smooth check. The room was clean and well-equipped. good lighting.

The hotel is just beside the Kagoshima-Chou station. Check in the 2 level, where you have some of the amenities.
