Kumamoto Hotel Castle

As it is not near the JR station, you need to take a tram to get there. But it is near the castle and the arcade where there are many stalls to shop. Service is excellent. The bed is quite comfortable too.

good for the price, right next to the castle, nice service of placing my luggage in to my room.

It’s in a great location just a short walk to the shopping street with lots to eat and buy and also a view of the castle. However the hotel is very old and it shows its age both in the condition of the rooms and the way it is managed. For example, they ask guests to leave the physical key with the front desk every time you go out: this is a very old practice at Japanese inns. For younger folks, it feels worse than having to tell your parents when you go out or come back 😭

Hotel is a little old but staffs are friendly and location is just opposite Kumamoto castle.

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.

Had a very good stay in this hotel. I got a room that was probably renovated recently(not all rooms are renovated!). Everything looks brand new and modern. The room is spacious with a large toilet split into 3 sections. This hotel is value for money

Although the hotel is a bit old, however, location, cleanliness and hotel services have made up the lost. It’s a highly recommended hotel to stay after all

AMAZING STAFF AND PERFECT LOCATION FOR THE KUMAMOTO CASTLE. The room is in decent size and spotless cleaness, which we do appreciate with. Close to restaurants, convenient stores and supermarket.
