10/10 Excellent

"Great location with delicious breakfast."

REF Kumamoto by VESSEL HOTELS

10/10 Excellent

"hotel is amazingly located in the main shopping street of kumamoto making kombinis, shops, food options and transport links at an abundance!! the hotel is extremely organised and clean, check in was smooth with the kindest staff always willing to help. the room is small and i struggled to open a large suitcase however it has everything you need. there are free drinks available in the lobby daily from 2-10pm, the breakfast buffet is the best i’ve ever experienced - so clean, yummy and always well stocked. the public bath is free with the hotel stay however please be aware if you have tattoos they are NOT tattoo friendly so you’ll need to cover them up or take a miss this time. overall, couldn’t recommend more for a few days stay in kumamoto!!"

Mitsui Garden Hotel Kumamoto

10/10 Excellent

"El personal fue muy amable en todo momento. Nos facilitaron una báscula para pesar maletas .Tuvimos que usar un parking con convenio ya que el coche era más alto que el techo(cuidado), el encargado del parking estaba preocupado por si nos perdiamos. La habitación era conveniente, más grande que lo normal del país. Los baños estaban algo viejos, oxido alrededor de sanitarios. En la planta 3 había lavandería, al llegar olía bastante a tabaco."
