Hotel Dengan Spa di Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan

This is my second time staying at this hotel. Although there is a distance from Kumamoto Station. It is quite convenient to take tram or bus (bus terminal opposite the hotel at Sakura Machi) to Kumamoto Station. Kumamoto Castle is nearby. There is a shopping street at walking distance. A chicken soup noodles is a must try. It is at an alley that opposite ABC Mart (shoes shop).

Stayed in the standard double room. The room was huge, which is really surprising for Japan hotels. Everything was clean, it’s just that the hotel is a little old which shows in the style of the decorations, but the interior of the rooms were clean. Hotel had public baths and breakfast buffet came with the room we booked. Spread of the buffet was alright. Location wise, it’s nothing exceptional, but I don’t think there’s much to do in town anyways. We were about 15min drive to the dolphin centre which was the main itinerary for our day in Amakusa. View was good, hotel had its own garden area and sea view.

Newly opened so all amenities are in good condition. Shower is perfect 👌 Only got 2 pools for hot spring; can’t compare with the one in Kyoto. Overall excellent experience 😄😙

Decent-sized room and nicely furbished; Amazing location for food, transport, shopping, tram. Literally a 7-11 at your doorstep. Public bath was amazing, even has outdoor bath; Lounge available for working (after 3pm) and provides drinks and good wifi; Professional service and attitude from hotel staff. Would stay again 10/10

It's located very near to the train station that is very convenient for travelling and with many restaurants around. Room is rather small but clean with all the necessities required. The public bath and free breakfast are extra bonus for the booking. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Hotel and public bath area a bit aged. Good Large room. The 2 hotel onsen area need to drive or walk 5 -10 mins its not very convenient

Beautiful area . Close to jr train station . Very peaceful. Very calm.. out of this world ! Loved it . The onsen on the rooftop is wonderful

お部屋、サービス、朝食、アメニティ、お値段全てにおいて凄く良かったです。また利用させて頂きたいと思いました。お世話になりました。ありがとうございました(^^)

We had a great stay at Kamenoi Hotel Aso Park. We booked a room in the South Building, which was spacious,clean, and had a large, comfortable bed. The hotel provides yukata robes in various colors, which was a lovely touch for guests to enjoy the onsen experience. ♨️ The onsen was large and relaxing — perfect after a day of exploring Aso. 🚗 Parking was very convenient, located right next to the hotel. Just across the parking area, there’s a 24-hour convenience store called Obentou Hirai offering ready-made bentos, hot meals, ramen, and udon — extremely convenient for late-night snacks or quick meals. 🍱 We chose a room-only package without meals, and in the morning, we visited the local souvenir and food center at Aso Station. It had a great selection of local foods and breakfast options, plus plenty of gifts and souvenirs to bring home. Overall, a comfortable stay with everything we needed nearby. Highly recommended if you’re exploring the Aso area!

I really liked the hot springs with high iron content in this ryokan: I had sore throat for about 3 weeks before the journey, but it recovered just after the first bath. We also liked that family baths are for free if they are vacant (in the evening there wasn't any problem). The staff is attentive, thank you very much. The food was delicious, and there was more than enough for a man. However, we would recommend choosing a Japanese-style breakfast, since frying eggs on a burner is not very convenient. Nevertheless, everything was delicious. As for the drinks for breakfast, there was only coffee from the coffee machine. But there is always green tea in the room (we had problems with the hot pot, so they brought us a thermos). The only thing we did not like was the heating. However, it is unlikely to do anything with it when it is minus 3 degrees outside at night. Without heating, it was very cold, the floor was cold. But the heating is very noisy, and it is difficult to find a temperature balance. We sweated a lot at night under the blankets, and since the shower is not in the room - it is in the onsen, it was inconvenient. Thanks God, we had spare pajamas with us. Overall, for this cost of accommodation we can give 5 points.
