Hotel berhampiran Shiogama Park, Kagoshima

The room is relatively spacious compared to other hotels I stayed in Japan. It is very clean that no dust is found when wiping the table. The staff is responsible that they cleaned the room even though we forgot to stick the clean signage on the door. We are especially impressed by the LG electronic wardrobe which really helps to dry and cleanse the clothes.

I stayed 2 nights at thesunflex. The location is excellent with decent sized rooms and our deal included breakfast You can choose from 3 types. You will have to pay for parking i believe tobe 900 yen.not far from the hotel is an excellent bakery called sumomo whichhas tasty products which are 110 to 160 yen so fantastic prices. The staff are excellent and very helpful. Easy walk to the sakurajima ferry and many bars and restaurants within walking distance.

For tourists, you will like the hotel. It’s centrally-located and reasonably priced. But for me, this is my 2nd Richmond Hotel this week, and like Yokohama four days ago, the check in experience at the Kagoshima Richmond Kinseicho was just as bad. I arrived at the hotel at 1 and asked in Japanese for them to hold my bag until checkin. No problem and I left. I came back about 3:30 to check in. I claimed my bag and gave my name in Japanese. She found my reservation then immediately asked for my passport. I simply said “No”. She looked at me like I didn’t hear her then went to the back room to get another woman who I guess can speak English. Before the second one could say anything I explained in Japanese that I am not a tourist and if she would just check my reservation on the computer in front of her she would have known that. It is insulting to ask permanent residents (I am one.) for identification when checking in, especially our passport, which we do not carry around inside Japan (any more than a Japanese person would traveling Japan). The law specifies we are to be checked in as residents just as Japanese people are. And this, again, is the 2nd time this week I have explained the Japanese hotel law to Richmond hotel staff who should know better. And when this happens, no matter how good your hotel is the stay will not be pleasant because I won’t forget the insult. I’m speaking to you in Japanese and you still assume I am a tourist? How many fluent middle-aged white guys do you see in a year who are tourists? Come on Richmond, use some common sense and stop lumping residents and tourists in the same pile. It’s disrespectful to those of us for whom Japan is home. We are not the same as tourists. I like Richmond Hotels, but I have plenty of hotel choices available to me, and have stayed at Richmond at least four times this past year. Until you stop othering foreign residents as the same as visiting tourists I won’t be staying at this Richmond or any other going forward.

It locates near the bus terminal and Kagoshima Chuo Station, there is a Lawson at G/F. Airport bus can stop at the entrance of the hotel. It is very convenient for travelers. The room is cozy but not very spacious, though it is a good choice for short stay for several nights.

My wife and I really loved the Onsen with a view of Sakurajima as published. Onsen cleanliness was good too. Buffet breakfast was so complete with both Japanese and western style. Free shuttle is quite frequent although still took some time to get to town nonetheless. But overall we loved our stay!

100% convenient. You can reached via shinkasen on the last train and not worry about to catch the last bus or walk on quiet road to hotel. The hotel entrance is the same level on the exit JR platform. From the photo of entrance and exit of family mart , left is the hotel right is the JR. Less than 5 minutes from hotel check in counter to JR. Room is cleaned. I love the availability of 3 choices of bath salt. Self service.. just scoop the number of salt you want. Room is quiet and no sojnd from the JR or road. Only the breakfast is not muslim friendly. The room is not small. Just nice. Happy to stay and strongly recommend.

Superb location with shopping (Uniqlo, GU, ABC mart to name a few) and food (Mos Burger) located nearby. Clear view of Sakurajima, everyone enjoyed the stay!

Incredible view out of our room! It was visible that the hotel is a bit old, however the room was very clean. Nonetheless, I cannot recommend going for a swim.. Close by there is a great area to go for a run. The Parking Lot was next to the hotel and costs 1000 Yen for 24 hours. Had a pleasant stay. Thanks a lot

海沿いの広大な敷地にゆったり配置された様子に惹かれてHPより予約。 夕方のチェックインでしたのでロビーは混雑して列ができていましたが サーバーのお茶やお水があり、とても喉が渇いていたので 案内待機時間に頂け助かりました。 離宮は廊下から旅館らしい落ち着いた雰囲気が漂い 入室したお部屋は噂にたがわず高級感あり、部屋の広さは十分、 窓からの松林越しに広がるオーシャンビューは宿泊時生憎の曇り空でも 十分満足できる景色で、ベランダに出て眺めることも可能です。 （但しベランダの位置が低く出た時に転びそうになりましたのでご注意を） 床の間に飾られたカサブランカの生花は見栄えがして素敵なのですが香りが強いので、 夫は苦手として和室にあまり近寄りませんでした。（下げてもらおうかと思いましたが そこまでしなくてよいとのことでしたので） 内風呂は予想よりもしっかりとした造りで、洗面台に置かれた雪肌精の化粧水は 女性にはとても嬉しいサービスです。 朝は新聞も頂けました。 ただどこの宿泊場所でも起こりうることですが夜ベッドで寝ていると、 上の階で子供が走り回る音や隣室で人が集まって大声で話す声が聞こえました。 幸いなことに23時以降は静かになりましたので良かったです。 普通の話し声なら隣室には聞こえないと思いますが これから宿泊する方はお互い気をつけられた方が好ましいと思います。 期待のお風呂は離宮からは近く内部は大変広く、お湯も長く浸かれる温度設定でしたが 温泉というよりは銭湯の大浴場のような感じがしました。 ちなみに夫によりますと男性露天風呂は明るい時間帯での利用は お控えされたほうが賢明とのことです。 お料理は森伊蔵1杯付黒豚しゃぶしゃぶをお願いしました。 掘りごたつ式で大人8人で使用できるような角のスペースにて ゆったりとお食事頂きました。 内容も大変豊富で食べきれないほど、 メインの豚肉は東京なら2～3人前はあろうかと思う量で大満足。 翌朝の和食もバイキングではないのでお膳で落ち着いてゆっくり頂け、 帰り際にコーヒーのテイクアウトもできました。 館内はとても広くゆったりとした造りで大勢の宿泊客がいるはずなのに 窮屈さを感じさせずのんびり過ごすことが出来ました。 おかげさまでとても気分よく滞在させて頂きました。 また指宿訪問の際はお伺いしたいと思います。 お世話になり有難うございました。
