The staffs were very friendly and helpful, especially the front desk staffs, the older gentleman who is amazing! The castle view from the room is extra bonus! Althougt it feels like a 5 stars hotel in the 80s but it has kept the ground somewhat updated. I really enjoy it and the price is really reasonable. Looking forward to visit other KKR properties.

We enjoyed our stay here. The location is great for visiting Kumamoto Castle but it is a little far from the main shopping and restaurants.

Overlooking the castle, this was in a great location, ands easy walk to the restaurants of the town. The room was classical and spacious well laid out. It was a short but very comfortable stay. Parking was very easy.

Excellent view of Kumamoto castle from the room. Breakfast was decent. Overall hotel is showing its age though and its not in the best location overall (we drove so it didn't matter so much).

One thing we love this room is nearby the Kumamoto Castle. The amenities provided was so great. There are 4 coin op washer and dryer so this is very convenient when you have a big family of 5 to wash your clothes. The breakfast is traditional Japanese breakfast on the 4th floor. We love the ASO milk which was very creamy to our taste. There is a good space of parking on this property which is a plus. The have a housekeeping everyday. If you need to send out your heavy luggage, they have Yamato services as well. Staff do not speak English but its doable and they did their best to help us and communicate well. Kumamoto is a nice place to stay and will definitely go back if I have a chance to visit again.

Beautiful views of Kumamoto Castle day and night with the best breakfast buffet every morning! Loved that they had Kumamoto specific foods on the breakfast buffet and great mix of Japanese and western cuisine. There was ample parking and very easy to get to and from different locations around Kyushu. Bathrooms in the rooms are a little on the older side but still work just fine. Would stay again the next time we visit the area!

Kumamoto castle is just in front of the hotel. It’s a stunning icon but you can see the scares that that the earthquake destroyed. The hotel is 10-15 mins from midtown and quieter. I was a solo traveler but was lucky enough since they gave me a twin bedroom which is spacious for me. The downside was accessing to the laundry where people need to walk in front of the reception. Also, if you expect western breakfast, it’s a bit limited. Overall, I had a good experience with such professional staff who offered the best and traditional services.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Good: Quick check-in and friendly staff. Nice view of castle from room. Bad: Pillows are so flat that I can’t sleep well. TV seems like 2010 condition, remote control buttons are no sensitve and difficult to navigate. Location a bit far from shopping street.
