Hotel berhampiran Daijizenji, Kumamoto

こちらのホテルはチェックイン時から、スムーズではありませんでした。 レンタカーでホテルのタワー駐車場に入庫しようとすると、ホテル正面にタクシーが停まっていて入れない状態。やむなくタクシーの脇に停車させると、タクシーの運転手が降りてきて「ここはタクシー乗り場なので入れないよ」と。 ホテルに泊まる宿泊客なのにホテル前に車がつけられないなんてどうなってるの？ 妻にフロントまで聞きに行ってもらうと、タワー駐車場は現在使用していないので、離れたところにある提携駐車場に１泊900円で駐車してくれと。 タワー駐車場の表示は「満車」となっていますが、「満車」ではなく「使用していない」そうです。 提携の立体駐車場に車を停めて、スーツケースをがらがら200ｍほど引っ張り、ようやくチェックインとなりました。 お部屋は最上階の角部屋。少し広めの部屋でした。 入口はいると左手にトイレ、右手に洗面所とお風呂、２つに分かれています。 分かれているのはいいのですが、それぞれのドアが引き戸ではなく開き戸なので、干渉しあって使い勝手が良くありません。 それと、通路から部屋に入ると、部屋全体が右にドッグレッグした状態（右横に広がった状態）なので、空調の吹き出し口から出た冷気が右奥の方へ行きわたらず、手前は寒く右奥は暑いという環境でした。 朝食はB1にある「雑魚屋」という居酒屋で食べることになります。有無を言わさず和食でした。 内容的には、辛子蓮根と高菜はありましたが、そのほかに熊本らしさはなく、いたって普通の和食でした。 東急ホテルズには馴染みがあり、いろんな都市で利用しているのですが、次回熊本滞在の時にこちらを選ぶかどうかは微妙です。

Near the historic site but not so near to the JR station. It was a rainy day so we had some trouble moving our luggage to the JR station. The hotel itself is good. Rooms are not big but its good enough. Onsen was very crowded after dinner but there were lovely treats prepared for us.

A very nice, modern hotel in the heart of the Kumamoto shopping district - very convenient location, right at the cross section of the two major covered shopping thoroughfares. Check-in only at 3pm and is an automated check-in/check-out system. Staff are very helpful and friendly. At check-in, you are free to choose your amenities from a very wide selection, including bath salts, face cleanser, moisturizer, coffee, green tea, etc. There is a giant tv in the room. No bottled water is provided. The room offers a full robe (short yukata and pants!). The rooms itself are very modern and renovated. There are two Family Marts and a 7-11 within a block of the hotel, as well as many dining and retail options within short walking distance. It is about a 15 minute walk to Kumamoto Castle and a 30 minute walk to Kumamoto Station.

It was a awesome stay at Koko Hotel Premier Kumamoto. We parked our car at the multi story parking building opposite and just walk over with our lugguage. As I have already read some reviews in advance, we have no problem finding the hotel but I must say the sign board is a little not eye catching and can easily miss it. (can see my photo below). Everything is comfortable there and I just have to make space for my luggage opening which is not much of an issue. The location is so convenient and can easily walk over to the shopping area for our dinner with many choices. We enjoyed our stay and there is also drinks vending machine on the level we stayed. Will definitely recommend it for it super convenient location :) btw is near to the Kumamoto castle too!

Chambre correcte, salle de bain fonctionnelle, bon buffet de petit-déjeuner avec une multitude de choix convenant aussi à des non japonais. Exigences de chambre parfaitement respectées. Absence de parking dans l’hôtel . Les parkings situés en face sont hors de prix, mais la réception a des accords avec un partenaire situé un peu plus loin pour 1200 yens les 24 heures. A négocier avant séjour ou sur place. Je remercie les 2 personnes qui ont essayé de résoudre une demande de réservation de ferry, que je ne pouvais effectuer seul sur deux websites complètement en japonais.

2023年11月に２泊しました。熊本駅から市電で15分（￥180）、空港バスで特快で40分（交通事情で差異あり、￥1,000）でした。いずれも通町筋で下車。新規開業されたばかりで、建物もきれいでホテル下は飲食店街になります。ホテル界隈にも多数の飲食店が軒を連ねています。３Fにレセプションがあって、アメニティはそこで自由にとります（歯ブラシ、ひげそり、ブラシ等）。貸しパジャマ￥200と有料ですが、とてもリーズナブルなホテルと感じました。連泊の場合はタオルのみの交換です。朝食は時間がなく利用せず、１Fの焼き立てパンを利用しました。また横にテラスがあり、写真の通り熊本城が一望できます。部屋はタイプが８種類あるそうで、今回は靴を脱いでフローリングの１Kみたいな部屋でした。デスクワークにも向いており、Wifi環境にも問題ありません。もちろんバストイレはセパレートです。お湯の出具合、バスタブの排水も問題なしです。ベッドは畳の上に布団が敷かれており、寝心地も抜群です。面白いのは玄関入ってすぐに洗面所がある点です。隣に鶴屋（百貨店）があり、お土産各種、食材調達にも不便は感じませんでした。熊本へお出かけの際はお薦めできるホテルです。

My wife and I stayed at the Nikko Kumamoto from 1/5/2023- 3/5/2023 on our second leg of the kyushu trip after a disastrous stay at Nikko Huis Ten Bosch( that I posted on another review). The hospitality was a complete turnaround . We arrived by taxi from the kumamoto station and upon arrival at rhe entrance, there was.a guest officer to help us unload and wheel in our luggage to the check in lobby. Throughout our stay whenever we stepped into or walked by the guests officers, they would greet us and acknowledge us. Despite the language barrier, I was especially touched by the sincere efforts of one of your male guests officer who wore glasses. I had intially wanted to visit Mount Aso but did not know how to go there using public bus. So one one evening I walked to the guest relations desk and stated my intentions and request for more info. I could tell the officer had difficulty trying to communicate in English but he was trying very hard to get the information across. Throughout our stay were given maps and shown by pen and drawings whenever we had questions to a location ie ramen restaurant while waiting for check in, where to shop for sneakers etc I really appreciated the hospitality and guidance despite the language barrier. We hope to be back in future and keep up the good work! I hope the nikko mgmt team can transfer this consistency to your other chains ie( nikko huis ten bosch which clearly lacks such direction ). I really hope when ever I'm in japan I can go back to a nikko

Hotel near Kumamoto Castle. Good size room. Unfortunately I didn’t use spa room as no time.

ファミリールームに家族3人で泊まりましたが、とても広い窓で、お部屋も綺麗で広く、一歩お部屋に入った途端、全員がこのお部屋が大好きになりました。ベッドもお布団も気持ち良く、『雲のベッド』呼んでいました。お風呂場も洗い場と浴槽に十分なスペースがとってあり、とても気持ち良く利用出来ました。朝食のレストランもお洒落な空間で、お料理もバラエティーに富んで美味しく、パン好きな家族もとても喜び、ご飯好きの私も高菜ご飯を満喫しました。朝食料金も大変良心的で驚きました。家族全員が、『また絶対に泊まりたい』と言っています。
