    Nothing really.

    So so convenient coming into KagoshimaChuo train station. Just a few minutes walk through the underpass from the mall. Exit D. Rain or shine you are well protected with all your luggage!

    Breakfast seemed quite expensive to buy separately.

    Beautiful view of Sakurajima volcano. The room has a lovely little seating area, which we haven’t had in many Japanese rooms. It would be nice is the seat was able to face the volcano though, rather than away from it.

    The configuration of the room was very crowded and hard to move around. Rails in the toilet and shower would have helped me enormously as I have significant mobility problems. The parking arrangement was tedious and unnecessarily complicated. More in-house tourist information in English needed.

    Fabulous view. Great location.

    Nothing comes to mind that we were unhappy with.

    The hotel is centrally located, in quite a bustling area of the city. It was easy to find places to eat and near transport. The room was quite comfortable and very clean. Staff were very helpful and the mainly Japanese breakfast was both interesting and substantial.

    This was a great location next to the train station, we were able to return our car in Kagoshima airport and take an easy shuttle to the base of the hotel, which was about a 30 minute drive. The hotel lobby was on the 7th floor. The weather was cloudy and rainy and weren’t able to see too much of the volcano/Mountain View but when we did have some clarity it was beautiful. The staff was very friendly and we were able to store our luggage for two hours after checking out which was very convenient. Overall a great stay!

    the location was perfect for us as it’s very near JR station and the airport bus just at the hotel entrance. Booked a room of 2 single beds with beautiful Sakurajima Mountain Views. staying there for 6 nights, feel comfy with great views, room size of about 22m, bathroom had shower and bathtub which was great. breakfast had local and western style of food.

    A perfect hotel to stay in Kagoshima City
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Double Room with Mountain View - Non-Smoking
    • Stayed 1 night

    The thing I didn't like about the stay with this hotel was that I had only one night in Kagoshima city. I have a high school friend who lives in Kagoshima. I didn't contact him this time because I know I didn't have enough time to spend there.

    The rental car was from Budget. The car-return-station was a walking distance. There was a park along the way that people were enjoining cherry blossoms. We took some pictures, too. Google map/GPS guided us to the hotel, but it was a little difficult to find the entrance because of the hotel signage, which was not so visible. I had an impression that the hotel is a standalone building, but it was a part of a large commercial structure. Front lobby, which is very spacious and was really nice, is located up in 7th floor of the building. The staffs were nice and pleasant to talk to. The room was okay size for a city-hotel. However, the bathroom was comfortably sized. Not like a typical Japanese sized micro-bathroom. We really liked it. The room was called "mountain view", but there was a handrail of some sort outside of the room that obstructed from having a clear mountain view. If it was one floor up, it would have been nice. Leaving Kagoshima, we took a bullet train from Kagoshima-Chuoh-Station, a walking distance, which was located across the street. From the hotel, there's an underground pathway to the station, which worked out really nice due to having rain outside the street.

    Washing machine and dryer didn’t quite clean and dry clothes too well, but it was better than nothing.

    Staff went above and beyond to help, especially the lady that helped us with our ferry tickets. Cleaning staff were also very accommodating and helpful. Sufficient sized rooms. Close to train station.

    Very tiny room; I think the table was not needed and if removed the room was more spacious!

    Great location in front of the Kagoshima Chuo station! They even gave us a room with a pretty view of Sakurajima the vulcano. Staff was really helpful and met all my requests/questions that I had. Would recommend the hotel to anyone visiting Kagoshima!

    While the room is large it is too cluttered. If they would remove the extra couch and table, space would be comfortable. The way it is we had trouble placing our suit cases.

    Central location across the street from the train station and a mall. - The bathroom was large and modern and even came with a small window. - The view can be great depending on the direction your room is facing.
