Hotel Dengan Parking di Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

I recently stayed at The Blossom Kumamoto and would definitely stay here again. The location is unbeatable. The hotel is literally next to Kumamoto Station, just exit from the Shinkansen gate, turn right, and you’ll see the entrance. It’s also directly connected to AMU Plaza, with easy access to restaurants, shops, buses, taxis, and trains. The rooms are surprisingly spacious for Japan. We were able to fully open two large suitcases and still had enough space to walk around comfortably. The hotel also has a very nice and spacious public bath, and guests can enjoy free coffee after using the onsen, which is a great touch. One thing to note is that there are quite a lot of tour groups staying here, so it can feel a bit crowded at times. The hotel provides a self-service luggage storage area, as they do not store luggage at the front desk. I didn’t try the breakfast, but overall the stay was excellent. Highly recommended — 10/10.

We stayed in a twin bunk bed room. Very clean, toilets and showers were great (about 6 toilets, 4 showers). Common space was very inviting and cozy with a nice wood heater. A bit of noise until midnight with creaky floorboards but aside from that, very quiet location. Not much open around for food on a Monday night in mid March but we went to Coffee Plaza for dinner and had food from Lawsons for breakfast. Highly recommend!!

I was pleasantly surprised by how great this stay was! The hotel exceeded my expectations in many ways. The location is excellent—close to public transportation, restaurants, and shopping areas, making it incredibly convenient for exploring the city. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. Staff were friendly and helpful throughout my stay. Overall, a wonderful experience, and I would definitely choose this hotel again.

Small room but totally functional for a night stay. New hotel in the middle of city, walking distance from malls. Only downside is lack of on-site parking though there is nearby parking at the mall, which is 5 mins walk away. Get your parking ticket stamped at hotel to get a discount for overnight parking at the mall. Parking instructions and directions in pictures.

Excellent stay at one station! First time and with it's perfect location it makes travelling around so convenient. Beside it it's Kumamoto Station and there is AMU Shopping mall just beside it. If you rented a car during your stay in Kumamoto, you may just park at the multi story carpark behind the hotel for just 1000 yen for 24hrs with multiple entries but you would have to head to hotel reception to get the coupon for it. Definitely a recommended stay in Kumamoto

Ryokan Yumotoso is in a perfect location in the quaint town of Kurokawa. There are about 12 rooms only, hence its quite a quiet and small establishment. Service staff are all great, and the room view is fantastic looking over the beautiful river. The open onsen also overlooks nature, and private onsens are rustic. As per Ryokans, breakfasts and dinners are included, and so far, we have never been disappointed with food in Ryokans, including Yumotoso. Do note that parking lots are limited, and the lane leading to Yumotoso is rather narrow. Would recommend Yumotoso for its great location, fantastic room view and rustic environment.

We love this quaint spot, there's a lot of variety of public bath (for women as I can only comment for it) - you can even visit their sister shop nearby. Location wise - it's not walking distance to the main onsen town, but it means it's bigger. We travel in a group of 8 and slept in a 4-person room with a private onsen inside, which was awesome. Amenities were great and the food was so amazing!! The eel dinner was just mindblowing. The staff there were super attentive and there was one of them who speaks Chinese that made everything easy as well. There was a male staff who sent us out, helped us take lots of great photos - he did much more than we asked him to.

Hotel Nikko Kumamoto maintains very high standard of service. Greeters were always smiling at the hotel lobby and lift area. We were lucky to get a Room with Castle view. Location was perfect, right opposite Tsuruya Departmental Store and beside Shimotori shopping srreet. Breakfast spread was excellent. Highly recommended!

The hotel employees all of them were showed a good attitude and communication was no problem for foreigners. The location is great — it’s close to Kumamoto Castle, and there’s a shopping mall just about a 10-minute walk away. I made a reservation for a triple room for two nights. The sofa bed was uncomfortable, and the air conditioner could not adjust the airflow direction, which caused us to catch a cold. One more thing, the room key had to be returned and kept at the counter whenever we went out for the day.

A safe choice which we've experienced in Tokyo Asakusa before. Great breakfast, onsen, night ramen, snacks, manga and excellent staff. Very central in town and highly recommend
