ONE STATION HOTEL KUMAMOTO～DLIGHT LIFE＆HOTELS　（Formerly The New Hotel Kumamoto)

The hotel is good. Everything is perfect. But housekeepers do not clean the room everyday. We need to pay for 1000yens. But that's still ok

Room is clean and big. But reception can’t speak English that we cant get any recommend placento go

Very good location near the train station. Clean room, comfortable bed, bathroom has a bathtub. Luckily I got a room on the 10th floor with a very beautiful city view.

Despite the name, it is not a new hotel. The hotel has undergone renovation, but it still retains a bit of an 80's vibe (e.g. a bar/lounge in the lobby with live music in the evening and metal keys to access the rooms). The breakfast buffet offers good quality and a wide selection. The room is clean with run-of-the-mill, utilitarian furniture and furnishings. There is free VOD. Hotel policy stipulates that the room will be cleaned every 3 days. Otherwise, there is a charge of JP¥ 1,000 for bed makeup & room cleaning. There is no charge for garbage collection, towel replacement. The bus stop for the airport limousine is literally outside the front entrance. The hotel is also conveniently located near the JR Kumamoto Station, streetcar stop and Amu Plaza Mall (a 2-min walk). Hence, there are a lot of dining, shopping and transportation options.

Hotel was undergoing renovations so some of the facilities weren't available. The breakfast served was amazing, the staff in the restaurant were friendly and provided excellent service. The service at check in can be a little less cold and rigid. Overall it was a good stay, excellent location next to the station.

The hotel interior, style and furniture and equipment are old, it still retains a bit of an 80’s vibe. Overall the room is clear and tidy and staff is friendly and helpful. Hotel is next to Kumamoto station, bus stop and tram stop and it’s easy to take the tram to the city.
