Comfort Hotel Kochi became our 12th hotel on this journey, and honestly, it was one of the most pleasant surprises so far. We checked in earlier today, and the location immediately scored big points — it is just a comfortable 5-minute walk from Kochi Station, making arrival very easy.
The hotel itself feels brand new, and that freshness really shows. The lobby is slightly more spacious than other Comfort Hotels we have stayed at in Japan, which made a great first impression. Check-in was smooth even though it was done via a machine, and there was a friendly staff member nearby who stepped in to help and speed up the process when needed — a small touch, but very much appreciated.
We were assigned a room on the highest floor, and to our surprise, this turned out to be the biggest standard double room we have ever stayed in across all Comfort Hotels in other cities. The room felt new, spotless, and thoughtfully laid out. The entrance area was spacious enough to fully open our large luggage without playing Tetris — always a win.
The bed was comfortable, and while two pillows were already provided, I was able to get additional ones easily. There was a proper desk and chair, making it comfortable to sit down and work. The TV felt modern as well, with YouTube available, which was a nice bonus after a long day out. Even the bathroom was more spacious than expected, adding to the overall comfort.
What made the stay even better was the free breakfast included for both nights of our stay, which always adds great value. On top of that, the streetcar station is also within walking distance, making it very convenient to explore Kochi without any hassle.
Overall, Comfort Hotel Kochi exceeded our expectations — modern, comfortable, spacious, and well-located. It was a solid and satisfying stay that made us glad we chose it.
I visited on a whirlwind solo trip. The hotel room was clean and I was satisfied. What made me happiest was the all-you-can-eat seared bonito at the breakfast buffet. I honestly thought that because it was all-you-can-eat, the taste might not be that great, but I was surprised at how delicious it was. The hot springs were open until 5am, which was great for me since I like to stay up late. The late-night ramen was also delicious, warm, and comforting. However, I witnessed a staff member in the kitchen area of the breakfast buffet being harsh with another staff member, and it made me feel like I was being scolded, which was unpleasant. I wish they would at least be more gentle in areas where guests can see them. Other than that, it was a really good hotel!
I stayed here while sightseeing along the Shimanto River.
The amenities here included lotion, milky lotion, and even makeup remover, which was extremely convenient for female guests. (*^ω^)
They also had game consoles available for rent, so I played the Famicom, my childhood obsession, for the first time in decades!
(There were several other game consoles to choose from besides the Famicom.)
There was a souvenir shop and restaurant right next door, so I had no trouble finding a place to eat or buy souvenirs. ☆
The shower and toilet were separate, and the sofas were spacious.
I had a comfortable stay.
I was also given some snacks along with my welcome drink.
It felt like a great deal.
Clean and nice rooms. Friendly staff. Great location close to Kochi train station a 13 min walk to the AEON mall. Awesome if u stay on a Sunday they have a great Sunday Market only 13mins walk also. Fresh local produce, nice food and local crafts being sold. Definitely worth a visit if u are there Sunday.
The hotel is located near the shopping street. It takes 8 minutes to walk to Hongren Market and 12 minutes to Hongren Market. The hotel equipment is old. I stayed in a Japanese-style room. The space is larger than that of ordinary Japanese-style hotels. The hotel also has its own parking lot. ¥ 700 per time. The hotel has a simple breakfast with bread, eggs, coffee and tea, which is good value for money.
From JR Kochi Station, walk straight for about 400 meters and you will reach the hotel next to Kochi Bridge. There is a MY tour loop bus stop in front of Kochi Station, where you can go to the beautiful Katsura Beach and Sakamoto Ryoma Memorial. Walk 1.5 kilometers to Kochi Castle, and eat authentic Myojin Maru Kabayaki bonito along the way through Oiyamachi Shopping Street and the famous Hirosito Market. The hotel has complete facilities. On the top floor of the hot spring ♨️ across the road is the 711 convenience store, and there is a streetcar passing by the door.
Not too far from Kochi Station, and you can easily walk to the famous Hirome Market and Kochi Castle. Alternatively, the front desk offers free bicycle rentals. Laundry is free, and drying costs 100 yen for 30 minutes. There's free coffee and a microwave on the first floor. Parking right in front of the hotel is free. The hotel was almost fully booked during our stay. However, the facilities are showing significant age, which makes the cleanliness situation feel like even with their best efforts to clean and maintain, it still comes across as messy and unkempt.
A city hotel with perfect cleaning for a base to enjoy Shimanto's food and drink.
The oldness of the building is undeniable, but the rooms are cleaned from the breakfast venue, and the polite management of the staff 々 is transmitted. There is also a large communal bath with a men's and women's replacement system, which heals the tiredness of traveling.
Access to the restaurant area is outstanding and is the best location for those who want to enjoy local gourmet food. However, it is a pity that it is about 2 km away from the station and the taxi use (about 880 yen) is assumed, and there is no air purifier or humidifier in the guest room. There is a Montbell on the first floor, which is convenient for procuring outdoor supplies. It is a hotel that can stay with peace of mind, covering the oldness of the facilities by the staff.
The hotel is about a 20-minute walk from the station, located in a side alley. A 20-minute walk will take you to Kochi Castle, passing through charming streets and markets. Hiroto Market is about a 20-minute walk from the hotel. Hotel facilities and room service are satisfactory. Please remember that the booking agent only collects a deposit; you will need to pay 5,000 yen in cash upon arrival at the hotel. This deposit will be refunded by the booking agent after your trip.
Located right next to Harimaya Bridge, it's easy to find and get around Kochi. The room was standard. Amenities were minimal, so you just grab what you need from the lobby. It was very clean and nice. Breakfast was included, but the venue is compact, so you might have to wait if it's crowded. I was happy to be able to eat seared bonito in the morning. I was very satisfied.

TTraveller CThe hotel is dated but has lots of charm! Yes, the fittings and furniture is old and outdated but everything is working as it should.
The room (twin room) was generous in space by Japan standards. Here are some plus points about the hotel:
1) The windows can be opened fully to allow generous amounts of wind in (not the usual small openings).
2) The hotel staff are so generous and kind, they allowed us to check-in early and check-out late without charge! This is also the reason why we will definitely stay here again if we are in Kochi.
3) Hotel is located in the heart of all the bars (there were hoards of salarymen hanging around the area in the night and it gets very lively)
4) It’s a cosy hotel with no frills (so bring your own shampoo and conditioner if you are fussy about it).
To manage your expectations, note the following:
1) It’s an old establishment, so don’t expect everything to be sparkling new or matching. No usb outlet charging as well.
2) Due to the location, you might hear lots of street noise if you open the windows at night.
All in all, a wonderful little charming hotel, run by people who have the interests of their guests. Highly recommended!

GGuest Userthe hotel room is nice , best shower even in Japan. but the sink is too low, good size for the child , too low for an adult the hotel has swimming pool, the pool is belong to the gym , normally require the membership ,but you just need to show the counter that you are staying in the hotel they will let you in. if you dont have the swimming suit, they have the swimming suit to borrow which was nice . they don't really speak English, that was a little tough to communicate. they have laundry machine at 3rd floor to use. the breakfast was acceptable , if you are foreigner, like western food , they have croissant, chocolate bread, salad, bacon. it was a good stay.
GGuest UserThe location is very good, just opposite Kochi Plaza, you can see it when you look up. The room facilities are good and the price/performance ratio is very high. The only drawback is that the central air conditioning can't be turned off, there is noise, and it's too hot to sleep in the middle of the night

GGuest UserThe air was clear and wide, and the dog was able to relax together!
It was very nice in a large room.
The price was good, the rice was good, the Viking was playing, and it was fun.

GGuest UserI stay here pretty much every time when coming for work in Kochi. Not many good hotels in Kochi and given its great location and good breakfast, hard to beat. Prices are also reasonable.
GGuest UserIt wasn't very attractive when choosing a hotel, so I thought I would use it if it remained at the end as an option, but the room was very clean and very comfortable. I want to use it next time.
