3-Star Hotels in Kumamoto

Great value for what we have paid for. Efficient check-in process. High quality public bath facilities with two hot hot springs (one indoor and one outdoor), one sauna and one cold water pool. Although this hotel is listed as a 3-star hotel, we would say it is much better than many 4-star hotels in many regards. The employees at the check-in desk speak decent English too.

A lovely hotel to stay in close to Kumamoto Castle. The rooms are nice and clean with friendly staff who are very helpful. Bath areas on the 12th floor are also quite nice and have a range of offerings inside. Breakfast was included with the price we paid, however, all the food was a little tasteless, if paying for breakfast, it is easy to go downstairs and get something but I’d probably go somewhere else if paying.

The location is in front of Kumamoto Station. There are restaurants and convenience stores in Kumamoto Station premises, so you can eat and drink without going to downtown areas such as kasushima Cho. Stay at the upper stage of the partition room type for 1 people. There was one lighting, USB connector and outlet in the space. I think most luggage will enter because the locker is large. I think wifi was good. The shower room and powder room are large and clean. Drinking and drinking are available in the food and drink space in the back of the front desk. There is a pot with hot water and a microwave oven, and a bar where you can drink alcohol is also provided. There is an outlet in the eating and drinking space, so you can eat and drink while charging your electronics. The difficulty is the sound problem. Because it is not a private room but a partition room and a dormitory, the sound of other guests (such as the opening and closing sound of the locker in the early morning of the midnight cherry blossoms) is echoed. The earplug is an amenities, but there is no effect near the person who has a big ibiki. Please stay after recognizing that there is such a thing that people who care about sound are concerned. However, compared to other dormitories and capsule hotels, I think there is a cleanliness and cleanliness that draw a line. Bicycle rental is also done and 500 yen for 8 ~ 20 o'clock use.

The good thing is that the transportation is convenient. Buses to/from the station stop right in front, and a tram stop a short distance away. It's far from the downtown area, but it's not impossible to walk. It is even more convenient if you use the bus streetcar. There are few shops around, but there is a good Japanese restaurant within walking distance. The room is small and it is difficult to arrange luggage. Just scaffolding around the bed. The desk can be folded (so narrow) that the bag can be opened in a small hallway space leading to the entrance. The public bath is normal for this type of business hotel, more comfortable than a unit bath, but not as good as a hot spring inn. The parking lot is a three-dimensional building. It is OK without getting wet even in the rain. There is no manager at night, so you can't get in and out of your car or take your luggage in and out. If you are having trouble with that, you will be introduced to a nearby parking lot.

We take a bus from Fukuoka Airport to Kumamoto Bus Station, so we can reach it on foot in nine years. The location is very good, right in the new city street. There are many places to eat, drink and shop around. It is within walking distance of Montbell and Kumamoto Castle, so I went there during the limited night opening time of Kumamoto Castle. It was a unique experience. However, there are several hotels in Xinshi Street. You can compare the prices. You may not necessarily choose this one. I chose it because it was reserved and there were no other options (hotel prices in Kumamoto are really too expensive on weekends). The room itself is relatively clean, but very small. I don't like the layout of the toilet. You have to stand in the bathtub to take a shower. It's much worse than other hotels booked later. I recommend it to those who are staying in Kumamoto and want to eat, drink, shop and shop around. If you stay It is not suitable if the time is longer or if there are many people.

We have used it several times. It feels a bit old in an old hotel, but it is a hotel that can be clean and calm. The morning Viking is a 10F restaurant, so you can see Kumamoto Jo castle that took the Asahi in front of you. The Viking was delicious as well. There was ”Kumamoto Ramen” and I made a morning rake on the last day. The size of the room and the hardness of the bed are satisfactory, but because the room light is small, I want another standlight and the bathroom faucet can be set to temperature I'm grateful. I made four stars. I am satisfied because I had a calm and comfortable time

I evaluate it with my own eyes (5 points full). Business hotels are the center. [Location] 3 Walk a little to downtown. There are many one-way traffic around the hotel, but once you know it, you will manage it. [Room] 3 No problem especially. [Outlet ＬＡＮ] 3 No problem especially. [Air conditioner] 3 No problem especially. [Shower] 3 No problem especially. [Staff] 3 No problem especially. [Overall] I was a little worried about the name and price, but it is a good hotel. I can get one juice and I was happy to get Kumamon goods. If you walk a little to downtown and the neighborhood is dark and late at night, women and children may be a little worried. I think it's good to enjoy it because there are many fashionable shops around.

We chose this hotel due to its view and location to Kumamoto castle. This was a nice hotel and the view from our room was perfect. We paid a little more for the breakfast since there were no close places to eat. They had covid protocols still but the food was delicious and we decided to stay 2 nights. For the price and view it was well worth it. We took a short taxi ride from JR Kumamoto to get there. Very pleasant staff and we would return someday!

The lobby is on the ３ floor. Breakfast venue and welcome drink are on the ３ floor. Yukata is in the lobby and bring it yourself. Slippers and yukata are prohibited in the common area of the building. After taking a bath, I changed into indoor clothes, wanted to drink coffee slowly, and forgot to bring a yukata (because I have a lot of baggage when I enter the museum). I want to warm dinner in the microwave. Etc. I often want to go to the lobby. But I don't want to wear shoes. Because it's for going out. If it is a type of this hotel, I don't think there is a possibility that outsiders will enter the breakfast venue. I don't know why slippers are prohibited. I can't relax when I wear shoes. It's attractive to have free coffee, but I can't go for a drink. I'm dissatisfied. I want you to make slippers a little more sandal-like and allow them to wear. It seems to be a slipper that can be washed, but halfway. If possible, I would be happy if there was a large communal bath. Is it because it is Japanese?

Stayed 4-nights whilst using Kumamoto as a base for day trips by train to Amakusi-Misumi, Aso-Miyaji, Nagasaki and Beppu. The Toyoko Inn is therefore ideal being within 200m of the entrance to Kumamoto Station and for getting about Kumamoto, the main stop for the Kumamoto Shiden (Tram) is right outside the hotel. As I had an early start each day I didn't get to try the free breakfast included in the room rate and arriving back late each evening, the food court on the 7th floor of the Amu Plaza adjacent to the Station proved really convenient (open until 10 ~ 11pm). Budget-priced hotels in Japan tend to provide small but well-eqipped rooms and Toyoko Inn is no exception. I opted for the cheaper room rate whereby your room isn't serviced daily, only fresh towels provided; even better value-for-money.
