    Ideal Accommodation for a Kagoshima Visit

    Enjoyed a fantastic view of the station square and the mesmerizing ferris wheel, particularly beautiful at night. Perfectly situated, close to everything, making it easy to explore the area. The 24/7 Lawson at the ground floor is very useful.

    Every thing fine. Your standard good Japanese hotel.

    It is located right next to the train station. Most popular restaurants a bit farther away but well within walking distance. Excellent view especially if you are on the side with the volcano. English spoken.

    The advert with the view to Sakurajima is a hoax as lobby offers it only. Way too overpriced to similar category hotels, probably the location drives the prices up.

    Good place for early/late trains. Very clean business hotel.

    Nothing

    The location across the train station and tram stop. The views from the room were incredible. It is worth the extra and choose a room with volcano/mountain views. Good size bedroom, much larger than your conventional Japanese bedroom.

    They were trying to be kind to the environment by giving you the choice of not having clean towels every day, but cleaning staff kept bringing them anyway, though we left out the sign saying we didn't want them.

    For the normal compact sized room it was well designed. Gorgeous view of volcano from our room. So convenient to bus, train and trams. Staff were exceptionally helpful when we had a problem. Dealt with it quickly and so efficiently. Lawsons at ground level had a huge array of very good snacks. Liked being able to buy egg sandwiches for breakfast.

    We had a corner room which was a great size, even had a small sofa. We had a view of the Ferris wheel and even a glimpse of the volcano which was amazing. Only hotel we had the whole time exploring Japan that had a window in the bathroom. Location was great, just across the road from the train, bus and streetcar (tram) stops, so super easy to get everywhere and close to food places.

    Nothing I can think of.

    Though room is a bit small, the staff had given me a room facing the wheel ferry which was very beautiful when it is light up in the evening. If you have the opposite side of the room, you probably would see mountain view, equally beautiful. The hotel provides a very good Japanese breakfast spread. Location wise is also very convenient. You can just cross one traffic light and then take the escalator and walk through the mall to reach the train station. This is very convenient if you are having a heavy luggage. There is a convenient store just next to the hotel and a supermarket (AEON) one street across. There are eateries at the basement too.

    10 minutes' walk from the Kagoshimachuo Station. Easily commute by train, tram and bus. Under the hotel, there's a food court with popular Kagoshima cuisines. Magnificent view overlooking the Sakurajima volcano. Room was clean and relatively spacious. Remember to put the clean up room magnet at the outside of the room door for tidy-up service. Need to take amenities at the lobby.

    Liked almost everything, but the television card issue is enough to keep me from staying again.

    The area is a bit noisy and I was woken up by probably the last bosozoku (motorcyle gang) in Japan. Might be better if you get a room on the other side, but that will cost extra since it's the mountain view. What really frosted me was they are still asking 2000 yen for a "television card" to watch a small selection of movies. This was really common in the 90s and 2000s, but in the year of our Lord 2023 I want to log in to Netflix or mirror my device, for free.

    Location is excellent--near a lot of things and with good transportation. It's a nice room with a comfortable bed and a chair. Staff is very polite and kind. Breakfast buffet was EXCELLENT. Lots of variety and it was all delicious. I ate so much I didn't have to have lunch.

    No hot spring! Kagoshima is famous for onsen so it was bit disappointing but amazing Sakurajima view made us forget about it

    Close to the Shinkansen station. Under path was useful. Lots of interesting bar/restaurants in basement. Amazing view
